Controversy Robinson-Regis was accused of using racist rhetoric against Indo-Trinidadians and Tobagonians. In response to accusations made by the opposition party of her party, the PNM, running a child sex ring, Robinson-Regis at a meeting in June 2022 was accused of using the Leader of the Opposition Kamla Persad-Bissessar's full name "Kamla Susheila Persad-Bissessar" as a way of mocking her ethnic name in an attempt to race-bait, and ridicule and mock Indo-Trinidadians and Tobagonians to take attention away from the accusations.
