As Chair of #BigCityMayors, I'm calling on state officials to safely #OpenSchools. W/ Gov. @GavinNewsom’s partnership, we could create a pathway to close the growing disparities in distance learning for low-income, special needs, & struggling students: https://t.co/kYnIM2YSed. — PolitiTweet.org

Interest groups are pushing a $67M subsidy giveaway myth this election season. Since I’ve been mayor of San José, no tech companies were offered subsidies & no taxpayer money has been expended or lost to support a high-rise developer. Here’s the truth: https://t.co/7jLIl28j9M — PolitiTweet.org

Your chance to be counted in the #2020Census ends tonight at midnight. This is the opportunity to shape our community's future for the next 10 years & secure federal dollars for critical services. Act now: https://t.co/bARIaKOMKC or 844-330-2020. https://t.co/oOci3OtcXN — PolitiTweet.org

@shanepc1 You’re jumping to some conclusions here. I simply called for a community conversation. There’s no giving in or opposing. We’re learning from the historical experts, and having a conversation. That’s what we do in democracies. — PolitiTweet.org

@cryptobra @sanjosemoti @EastSanJose On Baseball: Amén—not that we haven’t tried. our 2012 lawsuit against MLB would have been promising if the Supreme Court had been willing to take it up, but Congress has shut the door on competition among MLB cities for a century — PolitiTweet.org

A census count delayed is a census count—& justice—denied. Justice Sotomayor’s dissent perceptively describes this Administration’s outrageous attempts to do everything but ensure a full & fair #census count. https://t.co/nJTKj9UU9p — PolitiTweet.org

By the end of 2022, San José will connect 300k+ residents to the internet. With thousands of students still unconnected, we’re working hard to build out our free wireless network and bridge the digital divide.https://t.co/81BAyAq2BX — PolitiTweet.org

@EcoSocYogi @amazon @work2future I’ve been clear about the need for federal tax reform to ensure that every company and billionaire is paying their share—and more than they’re paying today. At the local level, I can ensure we’re not giving tax or fee breaks, as I’ve publicly urged in a Wall Street Journal op-ed — PolitiTweet.org

Sam Liccardo @sliccardo

@EcoSocYogi @amazon @work2future In the reality in which we have tens of thousands of unemployed residents who cannot feed their families. I still adhere to what you might view as an antiquated notion that jobs are a good thing—particularly in what may be the most devastating recession of our lifetimes. — PolitiTweet.org

Sam Liccardo @sliccardo

As with every other tech expansion under my tenure, there have been no fee breaks, no tax reductions, and not a single dime of City subsidy. And yes, they are hiring real people for this web services unit— not a bunch of robots in a warehouse. #WeAreSanJose — PolitiTweet.org

Some much-needed positive news: @Amazon has acquired an 18–acre industrial site at Alma & 7th, and they’ve already begun interviewing recently unemployed workers through our partners @Work2Future . . https://t.co/dyGCRatgc3 — PolitiTweet.org

The Fallon Statue has been a subject of longstanding controversy in SJ, but its fate should be determined by our democratic institutions, not by the whims of vandals. Look for a public convening, moderated by historian Al Camarillo—date TBD this week. https://t.co/e6vt9vnpA0 — PolitiTweet.org
