40 Days to Go: Huge Endorsements and Door Knocking THIS SATURDAY! 🚪

We are officially 40 days away from Election Day! The energy in District 3 is absolutely incredible, and as ballots get ready to drop the second week of October, our campaign is kicking into high gear.

Here is a quick update on our momentum and how you can get involved in this critical final stretch.

🌊 A Wave of New Endorsements

I am incredibly proud to announce that our pragmatic, community-first vision for San Mateo is resonating widely. Since our last update, we’ve earned key endorsements from a broad coalition of trusted organizations and leaders, including:

• Democratic & Advocacy Groups: The San Mateo County Democratic Party, Planned Parenthood Advocates of Mar Monte, and the San Mateo County LatinX Democratic Club.

• Environmental & Labor Partners: 350 Silicon Valley Action, the North Coast States Carpenters Union, and Laborers' International Union of North America (LiUNA) Local 261.

• State & Local Leaders: Assemblymember Ash Kalra, Chair of the CA State Board of Equalization Sally Lieber, SMFC School District Superintendent Diego Ochoa, and Former San Mateo Mayors David Lim and Rick Bonilla.

🎤 Forums and the Future of Our Local Economy

Last Tuesday, I joined the other City Council candidates for a morning forum hosted by the San Mateo Area Chamber of Commerce. Thank you to everyone who woke up early to join us! I loved having the opportunity to share my data-driven strategies for supporting our local small businesses and ensuring our downtown and neighborhood commercial corridors remain vibrant.

Mark your calendars: Our next – and final – Candidate Forum will be hosted by the League of Women Voters on Thursday, October 1st at 6:00 PM at City Hall. You can join over Zoom or in-person. I would love to see you there!
