She named their money a slush fund. Then a supervisor named hers.

Sophia Mason: 8 years old, dead after years of abuse. Wahab, a former foster youth, forced a joint legislative audit of Alameda County child welfare. The audit was ugly: missed referrals, hour-long hotline waits, 59% of emergency cases downgraded without documentation. State intervention. $12 million settlement. This part is her strongest work. Put it on the page. Then show what she did with the leverage. [KQED][CBS Bay Area]

SB 1193 (2026): a bill that targeted only Alameda County supervisors’ discretionary funds — not the other 57 counties. She called the accounts “slush funds.” Newsom signed it. [SFGate / Bay City News]

Supervisors Nate Miley and David Haubert called it political retribution. Haubert’s office also employed Hernandez as healthcare director — noted here as entanglement, not as proof of the complaint. [SFGate / Bay City News]

Miley filed an FEC complaint alleging: on or about May 5, 2026, Wahab’s state Senate committee (FPPC 1457054) sent $60,000 to the Alameda County Democratic Central Committee; beginning May 21 the party’s federal committee started independent expenditures supporting her congressional campaign. Theory: state dollars (which can include corporate / over-federal-limit money) were routed to help a federal candidate. [Dossier / complaint reporting]

Miley, at a Hernandez event: “I would consider that money laundering… I must admit I’ve never seen a money trail this brazen.” That is his characterization of an allegation, not a finding. [Dossier / complaint reporting]

ACDCC: routine support for endorsees, independently directed, “in compliance.” [Dossier / complaint reporting]

Wahab: “political stunt and transparent retribution,” pointing back at Mason, the audit, and SB 1193. [SFGate / Bay City News][Dossier / complaint reporting]
