Exposed: Senator Menjivar Misleads Public on Anti-Law Enforcement, Union-Busting SB 357

In this video, Senator Menjivar misleads the public and fellow lawmakers about the true impact of SB 357, falsely claiming that the Department of Youth Development (DYD) can fill critical staffing shortages in the LA County Probation Department. The truth? DYD has no line staff, no experience in supervision, and no capacity to take on these serious responsibilities.

SB 357 is an anti-law enforcement, union-busting bill designed to strip sworn peace officers from their duties and hand over public safety jobs to private, unaccountable contractors. Watch as the bill’s author misrepresents the facts — and see why we must stand up to protect victims, workers, and community safety.
