County Leaders Divided on Resolutions Supporting Israel

Monterey County leaders have delayed taking action on a resolution proposed by Luis Alejo, chair of Monterey County Supervisors, to formally express solidarity with Israel. While all supervisors expressed their opposition to violence and support for peace, three out of the five supervisors voted to delay the resolution, citing concerns about the language and outdated statistics. Alejo expressed disappointment with the decision, arguing that the language was straightforward and accusing the delay of being a tactic.
