John, I just announced my campaign for Congress in CA-11.
I came to San Francisco as a first-generation immigrant. My mom, my brother, and I lived in a one-bedroom apartment in Chinatown, and from a young age, I translated for neighbors who were shut out of the system. Like many immigrant families, we lived simply and worked hard to build a life here. When neighbors couldn’t get the help they needed, my mom didn’t tell me to look away -- she gave me the phone and said, “Translate.” So I did. For elders trying to navigate basic services. For families who played by the rules and were still treated like they didn’t belong. I watched families like mine get shut out, and I learned early how much it meant when someone showed up to help. That’s what led me into public service. It’s why, as Supervisor, I fought for stronger tenant protections, real affordable housing, better wages for city workers, and expanded City College access – the basic things families need to stay rooted here. And now San Francisco is choosing its next voice in a moment when the stakes could not be higher. Trump is threatening immigrant communities again, health care is on the chopping block, and working families are being pushed out of their own cities. Families like the one I grew up in need someone who will stand up and fight back. That’s why I’m running, and why I’m asking you to join me:
