Reps. Aguilar, Chu and Gomez Visit Adelanto ICE Facility Amid Hunger Strike Over Conditions

s the 2025-2026 school year draws to a close in the Rialto Unified School District, this K12 district has sustained a successful year where Dwight D. Eisenhower High School earned a California Distinguished School honor, Ben F. Kolb and Ethel Kucera Middle Schools earned Schools to Watch honors, Sam V. Curtis Elementary School was exclusively named an National AVID

Demonstration School, and individual teacher, classified, and administrative accolades were highlighted at the San Bernardino County Schools level.

But this was also the year of civic engagement and advocacy for some passionate local students who made a positive mark from opportunities afforded through top district administrators.

Beginning in 2026, many socially conscious high school students across the coun-

try planned walkouts, citing ICE raids, rising gas prices, increased political tension, and escalating talks on the Middle East conflict and voting rights as reasons for their protest.

In Rialto USD, students’ voices were not just heard by teachers, administration, district officials, and the Board of Education, but also by a new superintendent. Just shy of two months on the job, Rialto USD Civic Engagement cont. on next pg.

Civic Engagement (cont.)

- Superintendent Dr. Alejandro Álvarez worked with his Education Services leaders to address students’ concerns and offer “a memorable, teachable and civic engagement opportunity for students.”

Upon receiving requests from some of the student body and after speaking with his core district leaders, Dr. Álvarez extended an invitation to Congressman Pete Aguilar (CA-33rd District) to personally hear students’ perspectives on social justice issues that have affected them.

The congressman enthusiastically agreed to hear from the students. This was a platform for civic engagement with a notable local leader with a voice at the national level. Aguilar is the Chair of the House Democratic Caucus, a leading position Aguilar has held since 2023.

“I felt that it was important to have the Congressman directly listen to the concerns of some of our District Student Advisory Committee (DSAC) students that Dr. Manuel Burciaga leads,” stated Álvarez. “We had a strong selection of students who wanted a voice and a larger platform to use it.”

According to Dr. Burciaga, who is the Executive Director for Education Services (which encompasses all elementary, middle, and high schools), hundreds of students' outcry in February 2026 resulted in a meeting on March 20 at the Dr. John R. Kazalunas Center for Education. Led by the Superintendent, Congressman Aguilar was given handwritten letters from the students, presented by Joseph Martinez, President of the Board of Education.

“Our students remained engaged, and through working with site principals and mostly social studies teachers, we collected a multitude of letters that were reflective,” stated Dr. Burciaga. “Building student leaders through civic participation, advocacy, and community impact is important in the Rialto USD. We are grateful to the Congressman for spending almost two hours speaking and explaining the federal role to each of our representatives from high school and some middle school student leaders.”

This opportunity was not visible in any other school district.

One of the nearly hundred letters came from Serenity West, a senior at Rialto High School. It stated: “Dear U.S. Representative Aguilar, my name is Serenity West from Rialto High School in Rialto, California. As you know, since January 20th, 2025, the immigration problem in our country has gotten out of hand. In my community alone, I have seen hundreds of people be affected by I.C.E. Hundreds of people are scared to go to school, work, or even to the grocery store. The nation I see today isn't a nation that offers freedom for all, but a nation Full Of Fear. At the school district, there have been thousands of students who feel like their voice doesn't matter so much that they've done walkouts. So they may get the chance to voice their concerns. Some may look at this as teenagers being teenagers and skipping school for fun; however, they see it as a cry for help. It brings me great sadness to see a community that has to protest to be treated with basic human decency. I'm not saying laws should be broken; however, it's time to start treating everyone with the empathy and respect they deserve. Thank you for allowing hearing from the Community.”

Dr. Ayanna Balogun, the Rialto USD Director of Equity and Social Science, stated, “The District identified the issues and concerns through our Superintendent and communication with local elected officials, including the Board of Education and Congress. Once this portion was identified, and selected students were able to share their concerns and convictions through their own words, in a positive, safe, and nurturing environment, we all reflected.

We are proud that our students practiced their seal of civic engagement exercise in what mattered to them. It is also important to note that students learned from the process and earned the Seal of Civic Engagement as high school students.”

Aguilar, in his part, emphasized the importance of the students’ voices and said he was eager to chat with them during the session. He fielded questions regarding how students can effect change within their own communities, emphasizing that their involvement is a vital component of the region’s future.

“I am the one who feels honored to be in front of you, quite honestly,” Aguilar stated on March 20 as he addressed the students. “You are student leaders. Your peers and classmates all want to know how you feel about issues of the day. I wanted to be available to be here to listen to your stories, to talk to you, and share my perspective.”

Since time was limited, most questions were vetted to keep the key concerns and focus on the “bigger issues.”

Another letter was submitted to Aguilar from Rudy

Ochoa III, a senior at Wilmer Amina Carter High School, who one day wishes to be a congressman. He wrote: “Dear U.S. Representative Aguilar, My name is Rudy Ochoa III, a Senior at Carter High School in Rialto, and an aspiring U.S. Representative. I am writing to express my concern regarding the recent rise in gas prices as a result of the ongoing conflict with Iran. Just this week, at the time of writing, I paid $65.00 and some change for a full tank in my car, while in previous months, $40.00 was how much it took to fuel up. To many other constituents and me, this is an absurd difference in price! While rising gas prices are nothing new in our economy, especially in California, it may seem to be a simple issue. However, this issue in today's context reflects the implications and consequences that come of international conflict. Furthermore, such an economic issue should not be taken lightly, as many in the 33rd Congressional District and throughout California rely heavily on their cars for commuting to work, school, and other places that keep our society and economy going. Because of these impacts on daily life for Californians, I believe it is important that Congress plays an active role in the careful conduct of the federal government to check unethical actions and keep the executive branch from preventing unnecessary escalation in conflict, both today and for the foreseeable future. As a constituent of your congressional district, a citizen of the United States, and a student with strong aspirations to one day serve in public office, I respectfully urge you to support efforts in Congress that prioritize preventing escalation in international affairs to protect American families from the economic consequences such conflicts can create.”

Board President Martinez’s handoff of the collection of letters ensured the students’ concerns would travel from the classroom to the halls of Washington, D.C. Martinez applauded the students for using their voices and engaging in the political process.

“We’ve heard many of our students voice their opinion and the opinion of the community,” Martinez said. “They have spoken from their hearts, and I know you’ve heard them. Things won’t change unless you continue your work, and I applaud you for that work. I know people can rise under any circumstance. Students, thank you for speaking from the heart. Set your goal, continue to work for the goal.”

Martinez was joined at the event by several of his colleagues on the Board of Education, including Board Clerk Dakira Williams and members Evelyn P. Dominguez and Dr. Stephanie E. Lewis.

In a short window, while tensions were rising and local stories were being written on marches, demonstrations, and walkouts, hearing key students’ voices was not far from district officials' minds. The dialogue gave students a seat at the table and an opportunity to speak up about the issues affecting them and their community.

“Time was limited, and access was limited, but we were grateful that the Congressman made time,” said District Spokeswoman Syeda Jafri. “Young people want to be a part of the process to create meaningful change in their schools, communities, and perhaps the government. However, the civic engagement process was one that the Superintendent, with support from the Education Services staff, including teachers, principals, and district officials, created. These are not everyday opportunities, but it was a compassionate plea from students, and we must be here, in the end, to support our communities’ children inside the classroom and as much as afforded, outside, through understanding, knowledge, and civic engagement.”

Oocha added, “I am so grateful for the opportunity that my school district provided me to be able to write a letter to and talk to our congressman, Pete Aguilar. As an aspiring congressman myself, I felt that connecting with him about the issues we see today in our community really strengthened my passion for becoming a leader who listens to and advocates for their community.

Dr. Balgun stated, “Over the last couple of years, our Rialto students have been actively involved in the Civic Engagement process. The last election cycle was the first time in Rialto Unified School District history that all three comprehensive high schools were represented at the polling places in the Rialto community. Over 1,300 senior students from government and economic classes were met with community members giving them background on the importance of Civic Engagement, early voter registration, as well as their rights as young people.”

West, a graduating senior, said, “I felt that writing my letter to Congressman Aguilar really strengthened my political engagement in both local and state government, as it inspired me to look further into local issues and to vote in the recent primary election. I really appreciated having the opportunity to participate in the forum because it gave me a chance to share my thoughts and concerns about issues that affect students and our community. It was encouraging to be in a space where young people were listened to and where our experiences mattered.”

“It really is a community lift,” Smith said.

“We’re really looking at building the infrastructure, which has historically not happened, in terms of how early learning and care is connected to the TK or K-12 system.”

Heather Smith, director for early education and development with San Bernardino County Superintendent of Schools, said UPK is not one program. It is an umbrella of early learning and care options that can include transitional kindergarten, state preschool, Head Start, Early Head Start, licensed family child care providers and care from family, friends and neighbors.

“Universal pre-kindergarten is really an avenue that we are using to help families recognize what their choices are so that they can choose a setting that is best for them and their child,” Smith said.

Those choices matter, because many families, particularly in underserved communities, have not always known what programs were available or have faced barriers such as cost, transportation and work schedules.

“Historically, our families, particularly in underserved communities, haven’t necessarily known what their choices are,” Smith said.

“Sometimes they were aware of choices, but there were barriers to accessing them.”

Transitional kindergarten, or TK, is offered through local school districts and is free for 4year-olds. Smith said it can be an especially helpful option for families with older children already attending the same elementary school.

Other early learning options may also be available at no cost or at a reduced cost, depending on the program and a family’s eligibility.

Smith said state preschool, Head Start, Early Head Start and some family child care providers may offer subsidized care.

“With universal prekindergarten, there are more options for families that they might be surprised they qualify for,” Smith said.

The county’s role, Smith said, is to help families understand those options and build stronger connections between early learning providers and the K-12 school system. Historically, those systems have often operated sepa-

Under the UPK model, families may use one program or combine several depending on their schedules, income, transportation needs, language preferences and child care needs. A family might enroll a child in TK during the school day and use a family child care provider or expanded learning program before and after school.

Smith said that flexibility is important because each family’s needs are different.

“It really looks at creating a system that allows families to make choices for their kids so that they best meet their needs,” Smith said.

Early learning can also support children who speak more than one language or are learning English. Smith said some local elementary schools offer dual-language immersion programs beginning in TK, while family child care providers, state preschool, Head Start and Early Head Start programs may offer different levels of language support depending on the needs of the family and the community.

Smith said the early years are critical because children’s brains develop most rapidly from birth to age 5.

“This is the perfect time for kids to be exploring, learning language and literacy skills, early numeracy and building all of those skills that they build in early learning and care programs,” Smith said.

But kindergarten readiness, she said, does not mean forcing young children into formal academics too soon.

“A lot of times, our families think being ready for kindergarten means kids have to be reading and writing and knowing their letters and all their numbers,” Smith said.

Becerra Backs Arts Investment, Housing Emergency Ahead of Primary, Says Single-Payer Health Care Position Unchanged

By Manny Sandoval

D

emocratic gubernatorial candidate Xavier Becerra said California should restore investments in arts, culture, music and science programs, telling Inland Empire Community News that children need creative opportunities that help expand their minds beyond traditional classroom instruction.

Becerra made the comments May 27 during a half-hour virtual interview hosted by American Community Media as part of its California Gubernatorial Race Series, held days before the Tuesday, June 2, primary election. The interview, moderated by ACoM Associate Editor Pilar Marrero, gave community and ethnic media reporters a chance to question Becerra on immigration, health care, affordability, housing and other statewide issues.

IECN asked Becerra about California’s per capita arts funding, citing figures that place the state at about 80 cents per person and 35th nationally, compared with states such as Florida at about $2 per capita.

“I’ve not seen those statistics, so I can’t comment on them directly,” Becerra said.

“But what I will tell you is this: One of the things that lets our children grow, be successful and become tremendous assets to our country is when we let their brains flourish.”

Becerra said arts, entertainment, music and science programs are central to helping children explore, learn and develop beyond traditional classroom subjects, particularly those from disadvantaged PHOTO MANNY SANDOVAL families who may not otherwise have acXavier Becerra speaks during the Health Matters gubernatorial forum at UC Riverside on cess to those resources.

Reps. Aguilar, Chu and Gomez Visit Adelanto ICE Facility Amid Hunger Strike Over Conditions Community News

O

n June 1, Rep. Pete Aguilar (CA-33), Rep. Judy Chu (CA-28) and Rep. Jimmy Gomez (CA34) visited the Adelanto ICE Processing Center in San Bernardino County, California, to meet with detainees participating in an ongoing hunger strike and assess conditions inside one of the nation's most troubled immigration detention facilities.

The Members met with detainees who launched a hunger strike on May 19, 2026, to protest unsafe and inhumane living conditions inside Adelanto's Desert View Annex.

Hunger strikers have demanded the removal of mold, access to clean drinking water, adequate food, and timely medical care for individuals with chronic health conditions.

Detainees have also reported being forced to rely on expensive commissary purchases to supplement inadequate food provided by the facility and have organized an economic boycott in response.

Rep. Chu has conducted oversight of the Adelanto

facility for more than a decade and has repeatedly called for its closure due to documented concerns regarding medical neglect, unsafe conditions, and detainee deaths.

"For more than a decade, I have called for the closure of Adelanto, and today's visit made clear why that call is as urgent as ever," said Rep. Chu. "The detainees we met with described horrific, unacceptable living conditions that no human being should ever have to endure. The problems at Adelanto are not new, and they are not isolated. They are the result of years of neglect that have continued despite repeated warnings, congressional oversight, and detainee deaths. Adelanto has had countless opportunities to change and has failed time and again. It is time to shut down this facility once and for all."

“The Trump administration has tried to block congressional oversight and hide the inhumane conditions at immigrant detention facilities like the Adelanto ICE Processing Center, but Democrats have fought for transparency to bring attention to what’s happening be-

hind closed doors,” said Rep. Aguilar. “We heard the truth today from detainees about the dangerous, unsanitary and unlivable conditions at this facility, and what they’ve been subjected to is nothing short of cruel. House Democrats will keep fighting for accountability and we won’t give ICE and Border Patrol another cent until their chaos and brutality are reined in and real reforms are in place.”

"Today, I heard directly from detainees who say they have exhausted every other avenue to raise concerns about the conditions they face inside this facility," said Rep. Gomez.

"Members of Congress have a responsibility to investigate these allegations and ensure the American people know what is happening inside. When people are willing to put their own health on the line just to be heard, that's a sign that something is deeply wrong. No one should have to starve themselves to get basic dignity, medical care, or have their concerns taken seriously."

“I believe we have to restore the investments in our arts and culture, and the music programs and science programs that let our kids explore well beyond just the three R’s,” Becerra said. “I am absolutely fully invested as the future governor to make sure that our children have an opportunity to expand their minds.”

The June 2 primary includes 61 candidates for governor, though statewide attention has focused on a smaller group. On the Democratic side, that includes Be-

cerra, Tom Steyer, Katie Porter, Matt Mahan, Tony Thurmond and Antonio Villaraigosa. On the Republican side, Steve Hilton and Riverside County Sheriff Chad Bianco have drawn major attention. Under California’s top-two primary system, the two candidates who receive the most votes, regardless of party, will advance to the November election.

The May 27 interview was the second time in recent months IECN covered Becerra in an Inland Empire election setting.

In November 2025, Becerra appeared at UC Riverside during Health Matters: A Conversation with Our Next Governor, a nonpartisan forum that drew more than 300 Inland Empire residents and focused on health care, taxes, the economy, homelessness and federal-state relations.

At that forum, Becerra framed the Inland Empire’s struggles around a broader failure to reward work, saying his father was a construction worker and his mother was a clerical worker who were able to buy a home, send four children to college and retire with dignity in California.

“Today, young families can’t do that,” Becerra said at the November forum. “If I’m governor, they will.”

That theme carried into the May 27 interview, where Becerra thanked community media outlets for reaching families he said are often overlooked by mainstream media.

“We need to have those voices of communication, the network that gets out to our communities that often don’t have access to all sources of media,” Becerra said.

Becerra, who served as U.S. Secretary of Health and Human Services from 2021 to 2025 and previously as California attorney general and a member of Congress, framed his campaign around working families and restoring a sense of possibility in the state.

NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS: If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself.

Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder's office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property.

NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call (855) 313-3319 or visit this Internet website www.clearreconcorp.com, using the file number assigned to this case 145781-CA. Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the telephone information or on the Internet Web site. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale. NOTICE TO TENANT: Effective January 1, 2021, you may have a right to purchase this property after the trustee auction pursuant to Section 2924m of the California Civil Code. If you are an “eligible tenant buyer,” you can purchase the property if you match the last and highest bid placed at the trustee auction. If you are an “eligible bidder,” you may be able to purchase the property if you exceed the last and highest bid placed at the trustee auction. There are three steps to exercising this right of purchase. First, 48 hours after the date of the trustee sale, you can call (855) 313-3319, or visit this internet website www.clearreconcorp.com, using the file number assigned to this case 145781-CA to find the date on which the trustee’s sale was held, the amount of the last and highest bid, and the address of the trustee. Second, you must send a written notice of intent to place a bid so that the trustee receives it no more than 15 days after the trustee’s sale.

Third, you must submit a bid so that the trustee receives it no more than 45 days after the trustee’s sale. If you think you may qualify as an “eligible tenant buyer” or “eligible bidder,” you should consider contacting an attorney or appropriate real estate professional immediately for advice regarding this potential right to purchase.

Singh Law HQ Founder Warns $32.5 Million Uber-Backed Measure Could Limit Accident Victims’ Recovery

By Manny Sandoval

A

proposed Uber-backed ballot measure that has not yet qualified for California’s November 2026 general election ballot could reshape how automobile accident victims recover medical expenses, secure legal representation and pursue claims after crashes.

As of June 1, the measure was still pending signature verification by the California Secretary of State, meaning it remains a contender for the November ballot but has not yet been certified for voters to decide.

Singh Law HQ founder and principal attorney Saloni Singh is urging Californians to pay attention now, warning that the proposal could affect far more than rideshare passengers.

Uber has promoted the initiative as the “Protecting Automobile Accident Victims from Attorney Self-Dealing Act,” but the California Attorney General’s official title describes it as a measure that “limits automobile accident victims’ recovery of medical expenses and fees their attorneys may receive.”

For Singh, that distinction is central to understanding what voters may eventually be asked to decide.

“They’re calling it Protecting Accident Victims,” Singh said. “But the California Attorney General looked at it and gave it the real title: limits automobile accident victims’ recovery of medical expenses PHOTO MANNY SANDOVAL and fees their attorneys may receive.”

San Bernardino County Supervisor Asks to Censure County’s Elected AuditorController/Treasurer/Tax Collector

By Aidan McGloin, CalMatters

S

an Bernardino County Supervisor Dawn Rowe asked for a motion to censure or remove elected auditorcontroller/treasurer/tax collector Ensen Mason last Tuesday. Mason is on the ballot, facing off against challenger Ryan Hutchison.

“We have heard Mr. Mason make a lot of accusations directly to the media, as well as on social media, which I don’t believe at all to have merit or truth in them. Can we bring back an item for the board to consider censure or removal?” Rowe asked County Counsel Laura Feingold.

The Board of Supervisors has not voted on the issue, and the agenda for the next meeting has not been released.

Mason told CalMatters last week that he believed speakers at recent Board of Supervisors meetings were put up to attack him by an unknown political group.

The

Sun’s

Beau

Yarbrough first reported the claims. Those speakers claimed that Mason’s dual roles as elected auditor-controller/treasurer/tax collector and owner of a private CPA firm were improper.

The Board of Supervisors opened an investigation into Mason that will not be concluded by the election. Reports of the investigation were used in Hutchison’s campaign mail. No formal accusations or evidence of improper behavior have surfaced, with the comments on the topic focusing on a perceived conflict of interest.

The investigation was halted by Mason’s request to delay the investigation until after the election, a request he later revoked, according to both Feingold and Mason.

Rowe’s request to agendize a censure vote came after the board voted down Mason’s request to obtain county funds for independent legal counsel to defend himself in the investigation. Feingold told the board that Mason was not entitled to independent legal counsel because he was representing

himself personally, rather than the county.

Prior to the vote, Mason told the Board of Supervisors that any discussion of the case in open session would be a violation of the Brown Act because they would be discussing the possibility of a lawsuit. If they did do so, Mason said, they would need to release the full report to him. Last Monday, Feingold emailed Mason saying that the report, once finished, might not be released to him.

“That report is subject to the attorney-client privilege, which may only be waived by the Board (of Supervisors),” she wrote.

In a video on Mason’s new YouTube channel and a public letter posted on a new campaign website, Mason said he has been targeted because he was opposed to the structure of a county employees’ benefit trust.

This article was first published by CalMatters.

According to CalMatters, the proposed initiative would require automobile accident victims to retain 75% of any settlement they receive, limit how much may be awarded for medical expenses and raise the burden of proof for recovering those expenses. The measure would also restrict certain financial relationships between law firms and health care providers.

Uber has argued the proposal is needed to protect crash victims from attorneys and medical providers it says inflate costs and take too much from settlements.

“Californians deserve a system that prioritizes victims over ambulance lawyers, and that’s exactly what this measure does,” Nathan Click, a spokesperson for Uber’s campaign, told CalMatters.

Singh, whose Riverside practice focuses exclusively on personal injury cases, said voters should understand that the proposal is not limited to Uber rides or rideshare-related crashes.

“This does not just apply to Uber rides,” Singh said. “This applies to anyone who gets hit by a car while driving, bicycling, or walking as a pedestrian anywhere in California.”

Singh said the measure should also be viewed in the broader context of passenger safety and corporate accountability.

She said Uber should be directing more resources toward stronger background checks, passenger safeguards and meaningful accountability for reported sexual assaults involving rideshare passengers.

“Uber has a sexual assault problem,” Singh said. “There is a sexual assault reported in an Uber every eight minutes.

That’s the reality passengers are facing.”

Instead, Singh said, Uber is spending millions on a measure that she believes could make it harder for injured Californians to obtain legal representation and medical treatment after a crash. CalMat-

ters reported that Uber has put about $32.5 million into its effort since last fall, while opponents, including attorneys and medical providers, have committed tens of millions of dollars to fight the proposal and support competing measures.

Singh said her chief concern is that limits on attorney fees and medical recovery could discourage attorneys and health care providers from taking serious injury cases, particularly when cases are expensive, complex or involve long-term treatment.

“If attorney fees and medical recovery are capped that low, your attorney has no incentive to take your case,” Singh said.

“Your doctor has no incentive to treat you.”

She said serious injury cases can involve thousands, and sometimes hundreds of thousands, of dollars in medical expenses, damages and long-term care. If the financial structure no longer supports those cases, Singh said, accident victims may be forced to face insurance companies without the legal or medical support they need.

“You’re left alone against an insurance company and their team of attorneys,” Singh said.

Opponents of the proposed measure have raised similar concerns, arguing that the initiative could limit access to legal representation and medical care for crash victims. Medical providers have also organized against the proposal, saying it could make some doctors less likely to treat uninsured or underinsured patients injured in automobile accidents.

The measure is separate from California’s June 2 statewide direct primary election. In San Bernardino County, polls are open from 7 a.m. to 8 p.m. Tuesday, June 2, the final day to vote in person or return a completed mail ballot. Voters in the county may vote at any polling location.

Vote-by-mail ballots must be postmarked no later than June 2 and received by the Registrar of Voters within seven days after the election. Voters mailing ballots on Election Day are encouraged to request a hand-stamped postmark from a postal employee inside a United States Post Office. Completed mail ballots may also be returned to an official drop box or any polling place by 8 p.m. Tuesday.

While voters will not decide the Uberbacked proposal during the June primary, Singh said the measure deserves attention because of its potential statewide effect on accident victims, attorneys, doctors and anyone who uses California roads.

“So vote no on this measure,” Singh said. “Protect your right to legal representation. Protect your right to medical care after an accident.”

Singh’s warning is rooted in her work representing injured Californians in personal injury matters, including motor vehicle accidents, slip-and-fall cases and other injury claims. She founded Singh Law HQ to provide personal, attentive and client-focused representation to people navigating the aftermath of an injury.

A UC Riverside graduate, Singh earned her Juris Doctorate from Western State College of Law in Irvine. Her background includes work at an immigration clinic, a mid-sized personal injury firm and a workers’ compensation defense firm, experience she said helps her anticipate the tactics insurance companies use and counter them on behalf of injured clients.

Singh serves clients in English, Punjabi and Hindi.
