The reckoning for the labor leader’s sex abuse was swift in Fresno, Calif., the heart of the Central Valley region where the farmworker movement was born. Towns across the nation face similar debates. 

Fresno City Council unanimously approved a measure banning registered sex offenders from attending council meetings in person, responding to concerns sparked by a near-candidacy from Rene Campos, who is on the state registry. The resolution also asks the city attorney to explore using facial recognition to enforce the ban, citing safety concerns where children frequent meeting spaces.

The U.S. Supreme Court is weighing a major Republican National Committee challenge that aims to ban states from counting mail ballots that arrive after Election Day, even if they were mailed on time. Roughly 30 states and D.C. currently allow a post‑Election Day grace period, meaning a ruling for the RNC could overturn long‑standing voting rules nationwide just months before the 2026 midterms.
