Cesar Chavez Boulevard Possible Renaming

(Portland, OR) -- The city of Portland is considering a call to rename César Chavez Boulevard amid allegations the farm labor rights leader sexually abused women. Dolores Huerta helped co-found the United Farm Workers Union and says she was sexually abused by Chavez. Portland City Councilor Candace Avalos says she's started discussions about the name change. Portland Mayor Keith Wilson says he's open to the conversation and it needs to be a community driven process.
