The LA City Council is set to reconvene Friday to wrap up a week of raucous meetings, which have been impacted by protesters vowing to return to City Hall demanding the council not meet until Councilmen Kevin de León and Gil Cedillo resign.
"We'll be back!" the protesters vowed as they left the chamber Wednesday, passing by a sprawl of television cameras and reporters in the back.With neither de León nor Cedillo showing any indication that they plan to resign, council members have stressed that certain city business needs to get done. The council also cannot expel its own members.
At a news briefing after he cleared the chamber Wednesday, Krekorian claimed that he has demonstrated "far more patience than should reasonably be expected in management of our council meetings," prefacing that he didn't have much patience with the protesters in the first place. "One way or the other, whether it's through technological means or whether it's through other means, this council will do the work that we've been elected to do," Krekorian said.
Khan, who has been among those attempting to shut down council meetings since the recording was released, said that censuring de León and Cedillo was just a formality.
