But she alleges that he assaulted her twice.

One encounter she described as coercive and the other she described as violent rape.

Now, Neal told us that having one survivor come forward does give others courage to do so.

And that seems to have been what happened here with Huerta.

Now, I want to ask you about the other two allegations.

We don't know a lot of specifics yet, but we do know they involved minors.

What do we know?

Yeah, these are arguably even more serious as they involve two girls who would have been 12 and 13 at the time that they allege the grooming by Chavez started.

So one says it began at 13 and continued for years.

Another says that the inappropriate touching began at 12.

And Chavez began to sexually abuse her fully starting at 15.

So you're seeing a lot of organizations, including the Cesar Chavez Foundation itself, calling for his holiday to be canceled this year.

You're seeing Texas and Arizona announcing that they're canceling their Cesar Chavez Day celebrations.

Now, Chavez is a revered character on the left due to his ties to the labor movement.

How are Democrats responding to this news?

I think this unquestionably puts them in an awkward position, Georgia.

It's especially awkward for California Governor Gavin Newsom, who has said that Cesar Chavez is the first picture that he wakes up to every day.

In the meantime, the L.A.

Times is reporting there are already efforts underway to remove his name from parks, from streets, from schools.

And in fact, the famous Cesar Chavez Avenue in Los Angeles is already being looked at as one of those that will change.
