The District 5 race is defined by a conflict between two powerful unions supporting different candidates with distinct professional backgrounds and policy priorities.
Both Local 99 and UTLA are significantly investing in their chosen candidates, with Local 99 significantly outspending UTLA as of early September.
Griego's alignment with UTLA raises questions about her independence as a candidate, as she may become a crucial ally for their policy aims if elected.
Local 99’s focus remains on practical job security issues for staff, while UTLA’s broader educational policies highlight a divide in the unions' priorities.
