County Supervisor Cindy Chavez is significantly to the left and a member and LEADER of the South Bay Labor Union that is behind this.

I have a significant outstanding judgment on a former customer that I have not been able to collect because the assets are in other people's names, namely his wife or former wife as it appears to be a long divorce proceeding and protracted bankruptcy. The debtor knows how to manipulate the system and I do not have the resources to constantly pursue.
