The Weekly is hearing persistent rumors that the Biden administration considering Tucson Mayor Regina Romero for a position as a deputy secretary of Housing and Urban Development.
Nathaniel Sigal, a senior policy advisor to Romero, neither denied nor confirmed the rumor when asked about it.
“It would be an honor to even be considered for such an important position,” Sigal said in an email. “However, Mayor Romero is focused on the job she was elected by Tucsonans to perform, and is concentrating all of her efforts on navigating Tucson through the pandemic.”
Take all the talk with a healthy scoop of salt. Other sources have suggested that Romero’s potential appointment is being pushed by local Democratic power brokers who would be happy to see Romero exit her spot atop city government.

A woman without a clue, fits in with pedo
She and Fredo could stifle NY. Take her please.
does anyone ever notice that the profiles that say hurtful comments about regina romero are almost always white? is it racism? And what mostly disturbs me is the way a local radio host purposely pronounces her name. He says it in a way that rhymes with vagina and of course from a comedic pov that word in a sentence can make stuff funny. But, if it was the way your was name addressed to slander you like all the time can you empathize on how it would feel? my last name is peters and no matter how old the joke is already to me its annoying and once in a while hurtful. My identity, me who i am as a human being and my right to exist all comes into play when i am dismissed. has anyone ever heard that “local” radio host go off on her? any women that read my comment can you tell me if its bothersome to be talked about in that manner?
