Elephant in the Room Episode 1

Wow! Benny & Maryann Bernal hit one out of the park with "The Elephant in the Room Podcast"!

From strategy to insider information, we really learn about politics in California.

Benny dedicated 29 years of service to the Los Angeles Unified School District, initially serving as a School Bus Driver and advancing to the role of Supervisor. Regrettably, he faced an early retirement due to the COVID mandate, a decision rooted in his commitment to uphold his religious beliefs.

In the year 2000, Benny joined the Executive Board of Valley Vote as a representative for the NESFV and Union families. His motivation stemmed from the community’s sentiment that they were not receiving their fair share of city services. Notably, Benny displayed an unwavering commitment to the community, standing firm in the face of threats from the Democratic Party and the Unions regarding potential withdrawal of support or endorsements if he did not recuse himself from the board. In this crucial decision, Benny prioritized the interests of the community over partisan or union pressures.

In 2006, after exposing corruption within the union leadership, Benny was elected by the rank and file as the Vice President for SEIU Local 99 serving as a VOICE for the working class while stripping the power from the leadership and giving it back to the members.

Benito continues his journey challenging local politicians in School Board, City Council, and Congressional seats to expose their hidden agenda that many witness and live every day.
