U.S. Senator Chuck Grassley wants to delay Eric Garcetti's nomination as U.S. Ambassador to India, pending his office's investigation into whether the Los Angeles mayor ignored alleged sexual misconduct by a former top advisor.
"Certainly, it could have the effect of slowing things down, forcing Democrats to use more floor time in the Senate to push this through," Cadelago said."And I think it's kind of a test of how loyal President Biden is to Eric Garcetti, who was a very early supporter of the President.""The Mayor has testified under oath multiple times, including before the U.S.
Garcetti's accused former aide, Rick Jacobs, has denied the allegations against him brought by an LAPD officer who was part of Garcetti's security detail. Two former Garcetti communications staffers have givenOne of those former staffers, one-time Director of Communications Naomi Seligman, has demanded that Garcetti be prosecuted for continually lying under oath regarding the allegations against Jacobs.
Reached by LAist on Thursday, Seligman said she has spent months talking to media and"important leaders" about what the mayor knew regarding the allegations. She said she's grateful to Senator Grassley for taking action."[Garcetti] right now is nominated to a country that has some of the worst gender violence in the world," Seligman said."He will have a staff of over 2000 people, and he does not have the judgment, lens or values to run that staff.
