My team and I wrapped up our last week in the office by volunteering at the Sacred Heart Community Service holiday toy giveaway! Making the season brighter for kids here in D3 and beyond was a great way to head into the holidays. 🎁 🎄

Congratulations to Japantown for being selected as one of ten new California Cultural Districts!

@calartscouncil.bsky.social recognized something that we’ve known for years: our Japantown is a cultural jewel!

I spent my morning planting trees in Orchard Park with Our City Forest! Expanding our urban canopy doesn’t just provide shade—trees help address the urban heat island effect and can even help to slow down traffic. Thank you to everyone who joined us today to help make our city a little greener! 🌳 🌲

All aboard @caltrain.com Holiday Train! 🚊 🎄 This newly electrified tradition is taking folks to holiday celebrations like Mountain View’s German Holiday Market and Las Posadas in San Mateo, but we all know the best stop is Christmas in the Park right here in District 3. 😉

Last night, I celebrated community pride with the Guadalupe Washington Neighborhood Association at their holiday party. Little did I know that I’d be honored during the awards ceremony—for collecting the most trash at their litter pickups!

Last week we welcomed Entre Comales to our downtown! I became a regular customer during their soft opening. I’m still exploring their full menu, but so far my favorites are the bean and calabazas pupusas. Congratulations to Jonathan and Oxiel on this milestone. Thanks for investing in DTSJ!

It’s First Friday in SoFA! While you’re checking out #ArtwalkSJ, I hope you visit MACLA’s latest exhibit: From Their Hands to Ours. In a time where the federal government is trying to erase our cultural histories, the exhibit shows how art can preserve our culture while providing hope & connection.

The grand opening of Christmas in the Park is just around the corner, so my team and I spent the afternoon decorating our tree with something near and dear to my heart: more housing! 🎄🏘️

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.
