Nate isn't a career politician or a real estate-backed candidate. He's a community organizer and a former co-chair of East Bay D SA\, rooted in the working families that built this city. Raised by a sing le mom who moved from rental to rental\, he's organized tenants against an abusive landlord\, helped win Alameda County's historic divestment from g enocide\, and spent years building people power from the ground up.
Now he's running to put that power in City Hall\, and his platform is exac tly what Oakland's working class needs:
Slash the re nt with real affordable housing and proactive tenant protections< /p>
Fix the streets and deliver the basic serv ices we've been denied
Fill 1\,000 city jobs so Oakland works for the people who live here
Ki ck ICE surveillance out: No Flock cameras spying on our neighbors
Accountability to the people\, not tech l obbyists\, crypto billionaires\, or big developers
And Nat e’s campaign represents just one piece of the electoral puzzle here in t he East Bay. In fact\, East Bay DSA’s newly minted Electoral Strategy wo rking group has been hard at work this summer\, building a plan to fight f or the needs of all people in the East Bay. Because the fact is that our c urrent elected officials are too scared to fight for us. But we aren’t.
That's why East Bay DSA is throwing our weight behind Nate\ , and our goal to build an effective electoral machine locally. C ome to this month's Community Meeting to talk about what YOU want your ele cteds to fight for\, meet Nate\, and find out how you can help get the wor d out about this campaign! We'll have ways for everyone to plug in\, wheth er that's talking to voters\, reaching out to neighbors\, or bringing a fr iend into the fight.
Food provided! Bring your friends\, your co -workers\, and your neighbors.
