Join State Senator Leland Yee in kicking off Jesse's positive, progressive re-election campaign this Saturday, September 18, from 11:00am - 2:00pm, at 2242 Bancroft Way (very BART accessible) just past Oxford. 

There will be fun, food and great company! Also, come get your lawn sign and help walk some precincts after the event! 

Over the past year and half, Councilmember Jesse Arreguín has been a strong progressive voice on the Berkeley City Council, standing up and spea...king out for progressive change. He has authored legislation on issues ranging from LGBT rights, a just immigration policy, affordable housing, the environment, UC accountability and workers rights. 

He has also used his office as a platform to advocate for social change and not only talks the talk but also walks the walk, walking in picket lines and getting arrested for political causes. 

As a lifetime activist, Jesse has been an outspoken progressive voice and has never been afraid to stand up for what is right. From an early age, Jesse has been passionately committed to fighting for social change. At the age of 9, Jesse became active in the campaign to rename a street in San Francisco after his hero, Cesar Chavez. For the past fifteen years, Jesse has been involved in political advocacy and bring his years of experience as an activist, city commissioner, City Council aide and elected official to the City Council.
