Please join me in welcoming Chef Rashad to downtown Oakland at his new establishment, Saints Smokehouse. He will open his doors for a fundraiser event for my re-election campaign. There will be delicious BBQ and great company.

Thank you to our generous hosts: Supervisors David Haubert, Nate Miley, and Elisa Márquez, along with the Alameda County Building Trades and Construction Council, IAFF Local 55, Plumbers and Steamfitters Local 342, and SEIU 1021.

It has been an honor to represent you, and your support in this fundraiser will go a long way in ensuring that I could continue our important work together.
