Re “Schools violate junk food ban,” May 9
I can almost bet that out of the 70 schools that were tracked down selling junk food by illegal vendors, most were in Boyle Heights. Residents of Boyle Heights have been fighting this issue since the mayor was a councilman and also with our current councilman, Jose Huizar.
Check out any school in Boyle Heights and you will find vendors selling all around these schools. How do we get fix this issue if people keep buying from them? Our complaints have fallen on deaf ears at City Council for a long time.
