California lawmakers rename César Chavez Day to Farmworkers Day following sexual abuse allegations, with Dolores Huerta coming forward with her own account. Communities and leaders react, with some calling for renaming streets, schools, and parks after Huerta. Chavezs family expresses devastation and support for survivors, while the United Farm Workers union distances itself from birthday events. Governor Gavin Newsom and past presidents have not commented yet, as the foundation faces decisions about its future identity.
