LA County Supervisors controversy

Nasimi Aghayev, as the Consul General of Azerbaijan in Los Angeles, shared a proclamation of recognition on Twitter on behalf of Los Angeles County.[7] However, when this was raised with LA County Supervisors, they stated they had no prior awareness of the proclamation.[7] All four of the LA County Supervisors whose names were on the certificate; Kathryn Barger,[8] Hilda Solis,[9] Janice Hahn,[10] and Holly Mitchell,[11] stated that their signatures had been added to the certificate without their knowledge or permission.[7] An investigation by Los Angeles County found the signatures were mistakenly added by the county's Office of Protocol.[7]
