LA Faces Socialist Challenge in Mayoral Race
Liberty Check
Rae Huang, a self-declared democratic socialist and member of the Democratic Socialists of America, has officially entered the Los Angeles mayoral race against incumbent Karen Bass. She announced her campaign as a challenge to the city’s political establishment, highlighting issues such as universal housing, free transportation, and climate policies.
Huang pledged not to accept corporate funding and cited disappointment in Bass’s handling of homelessness and political unrest. Her campaign called for “a moment for change,” stating many Angelenos feel stuck by ineffective leadership.
- Huang criticizes Mayor Bass for lack of progress on homelessness and civic issues.
- A growing socialist push is targeting major cities with progressive platforms, including Los Angeles.
- Bass’s office touts her record of crime reduction, homelessness decline, and standing up to federal overreach.
The nation is witnessing an increase in progressive candidates challenging establishment Democrats, prioritizing bigger government solutions and more taxes on the wealthy. Constitutional conservatives must remain alert as socialist ideas compete for power in America’s largest cities.
The Constitution must be defended.
