To the editor: Mayor Karen Bass has endorsed Antonio Villaraigosa for governor in spite of the fact that he made millions representing the likes of Cadiz Inc. and Herbalife after his term as L.A. mayor (“Mayor Bass endorses Antonio Villaraigosa for governor,” Sept. 9). Cadiz wanted to pump water from aquifers beneath the Mojave Desert, which would have endangered the desert ecology. Herbalife is a multilevel marketing company that preys on the poor.
Yes, I know he is a longtime friend, Bass, but you are damaging your image by endorsing Villaraigosa.

To the editor: Bass’ endorsement of Villaraigosa for governor is a huge step in the wrong direction. The Democratic Party is at a generational crossroads. To ignore what the next generation of Democrats can offer to this state and country will be dangerous to all of us not part of the MAGA madness.
