I’m proud to announce that I’ve received the endorsement of the Sacramento Homeless Union. Nearly 9,000 homeless people live in Sacramento County according to recent data from Sacramento Steps Forward. That’s a nearly 35% increase from our estimates less than one year ago. Homelessness is difficult to track, but this data shows it is more prevalent than we thought. For years I’ve watched our city approach the homelessness crisis with expensive bureaucracy and ‘out of sight, out of mind’ policies, neither of which have had an effect on what I see in our streets. It’s time we stop talking in circles. I support providing rapid housing for our working homeless, treatment for those who are suffering from addiction, and bringing mental health services to those unhoused who are unable to help themselves.

I’m honored to earn the endorsement of Asian Americans for Good Government. AAGG represents community leaders and advocates dedicated to ethical, effective leadership across Sacramento. AAGG works tirelessly to ensure our government is transparent, accountable, and focused on public safety. I am committed to being the partner they need in City Council to deliver real results for District 7.
