It's out of an idea that I think it's time for me to move on to new opportunities,” Dababneh said in an interview. Assemblyman Raul Bocanegra (D-Pacoima) stepped down last month after multiple women accused him of making unwanted sexual advances. ”Assemblymember Dababneh’s resignation is yet another sign that the culture is changing,” Assembly Speaker Anthony Rendon (D-Paramount) said in a statement. He said he would participate in an ongoing Assembly investigation into Lopez’s allegation that will be conducted by an outside firm. Lopez said she is looking ahead to the Assembly investigation into her complaint.
