2UrbanGirls was made aware of scurrilous allegations allegedly made against Sen. Steve Bradford by either current and/or former members of his staff. The allegations surround sexual harassment and/or their working in a hostile work environment.
Key members of his staff have recently departed, and his chief of staff has officially declared her candidacy for City Clerk for the city of Carson.
A records request was initiated to the Senate Rules Committee, and it appears that if there are claims against Bradford, they are not being released.
A response was provided, citing multiple government codes, and stated “any responsive records, falling under the government codes cited, will not be produced”.
2UrbanGirls was hoping to receive a simple “there are no responsive records related to this request”, but instead we are left to draw our own conclusions.
If you are seeking a position in Sen. Bradford’s office, he is hiring for an executive assistant/scheduler, that can be based in either Inglewood or Sacramento. View the job opening here.

Really people, in his thirty some years in politics…why now????????♂️He is one of the last honest black men.
Any who has worked for an elected official knows that a lot of bullshit comes with the job.
It’s interesting to me that there is a subculture that exists around these ” politicians” that hold politicians to a totally different standard than they hold the general public.
It’s not the politicians anymore , it’s the enablers. Nine out of ten time they have or willing to compromise their morals in pursuit of ” upward mobility” and don’t think rules should apply.
So Steve Bradford or Inglewood Mayor James Butts possibly sexually harassing or assaulting their subordinates is considered ” perks” of the job
I’m sorry, but there is absolutely nothing honest about this man. This man, who has had numerous allegations made against him throughout his entire political career (including his time in Gardena City Council) prioritizes bullying staff members and belittling those around him all for his own personal satisfaction. He could care less about ethics, and decent respect. He is and has been an inconsiderate, incoherent, narcissistic, egotistic political tyrant who parades himself in the black community as a wolf in sheep clothing. Take it from someone who worked for him before, his entire team resigned left and right all because no one desired having to come to work to be the target of his rudeness. Just because he is black does not mean he is down for the community. He will heighten his privilege to you in a heartbeat and smile with pride about his salary, his Buick, and his home (that’s across the street from his Mama) and when constituents come to him for help, he will quickly turn an eye and place blame on THEM for being placed in circumstances outside of their control. He is by far one of the WORST representations of an African American leader this state has ever seen.
Back off!!!
Wow nothing screams this NEEDS FURTHER INVESTIGATION than the “back off” response.
There would be no reason to fear responses of each employee -current or past – if there truly was an atmosphere of respect and safety.
Additionally it is troubling that Erika Contreras does not believe we have a right to know if there are Vacancies. What is that about – we pay those salaries and if we are expected to pay for work done by those job descriptions why would it be so horrible to say there is no one currently employed to accomplish those tasks?
Did anyone else catch the incredible insult in the job description?
The High School Grad must have three years prior experience scheduling for a legislator !
As if having worked for a CEO in corporate America, or as a travel agent juggling multiple trips a month, as a presentation expert, could not possibly be able to schedule meet and greets for campaign contributors……. hmmmmm that line alone makes the entirety of senate employees less than we should tolerate.
Clearly this group thinks far too much of themselves and investigation re attitude and skill set is way past overdue.
Remember, this is the same guy trying to fight with a ice cream truck driver.
