Heated exchange after racially charged comments at San Diego County Board of Supervisors meeting [View all]

SAN DIEGO — The county Board of Supervisors voted 3-2 Tuesday to keep a vaccine mandate for new employees in place, following a lengthy and occasionally contentious public hearing that included a heated exchange involving an individual speaker and Supervisor Nora Vargas after the speaker made several personal attacks on board members and a public health official.

Unfortunately, our County Board of Supervisors meetings are continuing their downward slide... this from yesterday. For background, Nora Vargas, Nathan Fletcher, and Terra Lawson-Remer are on the board. Our Public Health Director, Wilma Wooten, is Black.
