Abstract
The article focuses on efforts by California lawmakers to rename César Chavez Day as Farmworkers Day following sexual abuse allegations against the late labor leader César Chavez. California, the first state to establish the holiday on Chavez's birthday, has widely honored him through various public landmarks and institutions. The allegations, including accusations from Dolores Huerta, co-founder of the United Farm Workers union, have prompted officials in multiple states to reconsider recognizing the holiday and rename related landmarks. California leaders emphasize that the farmworker rights movement extends beyond any single individual and plan to collaborate with local governments and school districts on related legislative changes.
