LIVE NOW: COVID-19 continues to exacerbate the digital divide in San José, especially for families relying on the internet for distance learning and jobs. Through our partnerships we're able to distribute Hotspots and provide WiFi to residents. https://t.co/miWJkLvyeD — PolitiTweet.org

Congratulations to @sjsu for ranking #7 in @usnews’ Top Public Schools in the West! It’s no surprise our anchor institution is also the #8 Most Innovative School--helping bright minds enter the workforce to keep #SiliconValleyStrong. https://t.co/hMj74O1EVI — PolitiTweet.org

Homekey builds on this model. The $14.5 million in State Homekey funding will allow the purchase of a current Project Roomkey site and add 76 more homes in San José for unhoused residents. (2/2) https://t.co/w5WQ8b0hQ3 — PolitiTweet.org

Amazing: GOP criticizes @JoeBiden for tweeting about inefficacy of travel bans—a full month after #Covid_19 had already claimed life of a woman in my city, & community spread was already rampant. Biden wasn’t @POTUS then, but one man was could have acted sooner: @realDonaldTrump — PolitiTweet.org

When @sjpdchief fired officer for tweeting racist comment in 2016, but an unaccountable, unreviewable arbitrator restored his badge. Arbotrators have forced rehiring of 451 fired cops in 37 cities in one study. That’s why reform #1 of my plan focuses on reforming arbitration. — PolitiTweet.org
