Started my morning with the Guadalupe Washington Neighborhood Association! I appreciate all the volunteers who came out today — in spite of the gloomy weather — to help clean up the neighborhood.

🇺🇸 Happy Veterans Day! Today we celebrate those who chose to serve our country and honor their courage and sacrifice.

Thank you to the Military Officers of America Silicon Valley Chapter for putting on our 107th Veterans Day Parade, right here in the heart of District 3.

When we think about a safer and more vibrant downtown, we're not thinking about smoke shops making unpermitted cannabis sales and stocking industrial sized canisters of nitrous oxide. This is an important first step towards a safer and healthier San José.
San José Is Cracking Down on Smoke Shops and Sales of Nitrous Oxide ‘Whip-Its’ | KQED
The City Council passed twin ordinances to put a moratorium on new tobacco retail licenses and ban the sale of nitrous oxide at smoke shops.

This week, the San José City Council took the first step towards a policy I’ve been fighting for since I was a planning commissioner.

It was all treats and no tricks as I joined a queen, a witch, and Ted Lasso — I mean, City Manager Jennifer Maguire, City Librarian Jill Bourne, and Assistant City Manager Lee Wilcox — in handing out candy and books to trick or treaters at the MLK Library. 📚 👻 🎃 (1/2)

Ribbon cuttings are one of the best parts of my job, because we get to celebrate folks investing in our city and show everyone that Downtown San José is the place to be. That’s why I was excited to join in welcoming Poppy & Claro to our downtown!

I had the pleasure of taking part in Smith Carlos Day at San Jose State University. Tommie Smith and John Carlos stand as examples to all of us (Spartans or not!) who have a platform. Whether that platform is an Olympic podium or the dais at City Hall, we must use it to forward the cause of justice.

Today we kicked off the Larry Itliong Way project! And what better time to do it than Filipino American History Month? Larry Itliong’s story remains largely forgotten, absent from textbooks and unacknowledged in the places where history is made visible. It’s time to change that.

It’s hockey night in San José! Last night we didn’t just celebrate opening night for the Sharks — we also unveiled the newly renamed Sharks Way. While the Golden Knights were able to steal a win in overtime, we’ll get them next time! 🦈 🏒

My office presented our first proclamation this week in celebration of Filipino American Heritage Month! As San José's first Filipino American councilmember, it was my honor to celebrate the contributions of San José's FilAm community and to be a small piece of that history.

My team and I spent Saturday w/the Japantown Community Congress, having great conversations about the collaborative work these local leaders do in maintaining one of our cultural treasures. Then we took a neighborhood tour, led by Japantown Business Association Vice President Jim Nagreda. (1/2)

This is exactly why we need local infrastructure to support EVs! Cities like San Jose, CA, and Erie, CO require EV charging stations with certain types of new development. This is how we start to decarbonize our transport! Shoutout to LCPN member @tordillosd3.bsky.socialn🔌 #cities #climatepolicy
New analysis confirms it: EVs produce fewer emissions than gas cars—even when you account for battery production, cold weather, and coal-heavy grids.

That’s why we elect leaders who invest in clean transportation and make EVs accessible to everyone.
Are EVs really better for the environment? Study checks role of coal, battery and range
The University of Michigan study estimated EV, hybrid and gas emissions on a county-by-county basis to see how each powertrain measures up.
