ADL calls on Calif. councilwoman to resign | JTA - Jewish & Israel News: " that she had compared to Hitler, the Anti-Defamation League said.
Claudia Alvarez, the council's mayor pro tem, invoked Hitler last week during a debate on a tax for downtown property owners in comments directed at Irving Chase, the son of Holocaust survivors who owns several blocks of downtown property.
"Hey, so if Hitler rents you a place, he's giving us a great deal, so who cares what he stands for?" she said.
Her statements reinforced an anti-Semitic sentiment that Jews are greedy, the Orange County chapter of the Anti-Defamation League charged and called on her to apologize."
