San Gabriel Valley stalwart Mama Lu’s Dumpling House (known alternatively as Mama’s Lu Dumpling House on business paperwork, with offshoot locations across the region) has come under fire for tax evasion and underreporting to the tune of more than $12 million, says LAist. The busy xiao long bao spot has two outfits in Monterey Park, though only one is owned by siblings Yan Lu and William Lu who California Attorney General Xavier Becerra says defrauded the state out of millions in owed sales tax income. A second location, at 501 W. Garvey in Monterey Park, has been owned by Anna Tang since 2015 and despite the name is unaffiliated with the Lu family, or the charges against them.

Rose said that she and her organization are immensely concerned about the agenda of the Biden administration, which is “even more pro-abortion than when he served as vice president under President Barack Obama.”

Jockeying for the seat began after President Joe Biden nominated California Attorney General Xavier Becerra to lead the Department of Health and Human Services on December 6. The Senate Finance Committee is expected to hold Becerra’s confirmation hearing in the coming weeks, though a date has not yet been set. He is expected to be confirmed, after which Newsom will announce his pick for attorney general.
The letter focuses on Schiff, whose record trends toward being more tough on crime than most of the other top contenders, but the signatories ask that readers “do not take this as an acceptance of all other potential appointees” and ask Newsom to appoint “someone who has an understanding of the impact of policing and incarceration on people’s lives and on our communities.” Schiff’s office and campaign did not respond to requests for comment.
