“Councilmember Kalb is a hard-working leader with a deep understanding of the ways public policy and budget decisions make a difference in people’s lives. When I look at what he’s accomplished for the people of Oakland, from securing dedicated funding for affordable housing to helping lead an effort to keep our kids in school to supporting increases in resources for public safety, and much more, Dan has always delivered.

"There’s no one better to represent the people of District One than Dan Kalb.”
