Late last month, Cheyenne Hunt, the executive director of Gen-Z for Change, released a text from a woman who wrote, “You know Eric Swalwell has slept with many of his interns and makes them all sign NDAs so they don’t speak up, right?” Hunt said she “started digging in” and found that the allegation was “not an anomaly” but “part of a pattern.” She now says she’s “personally working with a group of women who want to come forward and share their stories” and is “aware of a much larger group that is also in this process.” The story will “break soon,” she added. “Many of these women have remained silent for so long because they believed that they were alone and that if they came forward, it would ruin their careers,” said Hunt, who worked as an intern for Sen. Amy Klobuchar (D., Minn.) and as a “Big Tech Accountability Advocate” for the left-wing nonprofit Public Citizen before joining Gen-Z for Change in May 2025. “It appears that others may have stayed silent because of a belief that non-disclosure agreements required them to keep this secret.” “The allegations loom as Swalwell narrowly leads a crowded field of candidates in the closely watched California gubernatorial race,” writes our Chuck Ross. “He has landed endorsements from prominent Democrats like Sens. Adam Schiff (Calif.) and Ruben Gallego (Ariz.) and from prominent labor unions like Service Employees International Union California.” Hunt acknowledged in an Instagram video that the allegations will “have an impact on the California governor’s race” but dismissed “any suggestions that we should refrain from talking about this or seeking justice for these women because it is not good ‘political strategy.’” She also said Swalwell follows her on social media and that she knows his team “is aware” of her posts. Swalwell’s campaign did not respond to a request for comment. READ MORE: Eric Swalwell Will ‘Soon’ Face Sexual Harassment Allegations From Former Staffers, Left-Wing Activist Says
