Who are you? Tell us about yourself.

In 2016, I was elected Mayor of Stockton at the age of 26, becoming the youngest Mayor of any major city in American history. Under my leadership, Stockton saw a 40% drop in homicides in 2018 and 2019 and led the state of California in the decline of officer involved shootings in 2019. Because of initiatives, investments, and work I spearheaded, Stockton’s unemployment rate dropped from around 15% in 2012 to near a record low at around 5.7% in 2019. By the end of my term, Stockton was named the second most fiscally healthy city in California.

As Mayor, I raised over $20 million dollars to create the Stockton Scholars, a universal scholarship and mentorship program for Stockton students. Additionally, I piloted the first mayor-led guaranteed income pilot in the country.

Since leaving office, I have served as the Special Advisor for Economic Mobility to California Governor Gavin Newsom; the founder of Mayors for a Guaranteed Income; and the founder of End Poverty in California (EPIC).

Please list below 3 key messages of your campaign. What are the main points you want voters to remember about your goals for your time in office?

• Supporting a Marshall Plan level approach to building housing in California including blocking unfettered private equity consolidation of residential real estate.
• Expanding economic opportunity through expansion of guaranteed income programs, vocational training at community colleges, and exploring ways to ensure wealth generated from AI is shared broadly to unlock economic opportunity in all communities.
• Expanding educational opportunity through building more student and workforce housing and lowering the cost of higher education

What areas of public policy are you personally passionate about?

I’ve championed guaranteed basic income pilots throughout the state to keep people in their homes because that is more humane and affordable than transitioning them out of homelessness. Our trial projects in Stockton and those of other cities demonstrate the powerful impact even a modest additional income can have on working families. Nothing is more impactful than helping struggling Californians access additional income and empower them to improve their lives.

What characteristics or principles are most important for an elected official?

A good elected official needs to understand first-hand the struggle facing many Californians. I was raised by three strong women – my mother, my grandmother, and my aunt. As my mother navigated life from teen pregnancy to affording a home at the age of 26, she inspired me to pursue public service.

California is the 4th largest economy in the world, but for who? Far too often, it’s not working for everyday people who need affordable housing and groceries. Sacramento is not producing results for the average Californian and that’s a huge reason why I decided to step into the race.

Today, as a father of three young children, I see California’s future through their eyes. I know firsthand how the statewide decisions we make in the next few years are going to shape California for decades to come.

I’m running for LG to build a California future that sets the example for how government can work for everyone. This state should lead the nation not by talking about problems, but solving them.

I’m running for LG to build a California future that sets the example for how government can work for everyone. This state should lead the nation not by talking about problems, but solving them.

What do you believe are the core responsibilities for someone elected to this office?

As Lieutenant Governor, I would prioritize my positions on the Board of Regents of the UCs, CSUs, and California Community Colleges. As the state’s higher education czar so to speak, we can focus on building affordable opportunities for students across the board. Right now, many students in our public universities experience food insecurity and housing insecurity. The stats are harrowing: 50% of California college students have experienced food insecurity and 28% of students actively skipped meals because of the inability to afford them. There are students graduating while living in their cars and unaware that they can benefit from systems like CalFresh.

After talking with current students in the UC system, I know there are ways we can fix this. Firstly, we can connect financial aid systems at public colleges and universities to CalFresh. We can alert folks from lower income backgrounds of their eligibility for CalFresh and make it easier for folks to enroll. Secondly, we must build more affordable housing on these campuses. These universities and colleges have a very unique right to build, which means we can––and should––greenlight affordable housing for students, faculty, and staff to tackle the housing crises hitting these campuses.

What is something that has been a struggle in your life?

In many ways, our society sets up people from backgrounds like mine for failure — namely prison or premature death.

My father is in prison. My cousin, Donnell, was shot and killed when I was in college. Their stories made me want to defy the odds and not succumb to the fate society said was in store for me. They also propelled me to look deeper and to commit my life to challenging and solving these inequities. In a more just system, overcoming poverty wouldn’t be a Herculean task. Talent is universal, we just have yet to ensure that opportunity and resources are universal as well.

But I confronted these obstacles and more in my journey from the south side of Stockton, California to Stanford University and, finally, to the Stockton Mayor’s office at age 26. These opportunities must be available to all kids growing up in this state, and that’s been my mission throughout my career in public service.

What is an accomplishment that you are proud of?

As Mayor, I raised over $20 million to create the Stockton Scholars, a universal scholarship and mentorship program for Stockton students. Under my leadership, Stockton saw a 40% drop in homicides in 2018 and 2019 and led the state of California in the decline of officer involved shootings in 2019. Because of initiatives, investments, and work I spearheaded, Stockton’s unemployment rate was near a record low at around 5.7% in 2019 – down from around 15% in 2012. It was even named the second most fiscally healthy city in California.

Events and activity following the death of George Floyd

Tubbs was mayor of Stockton during the weekend of May 29-31, 2020, when events and activity took place in cities across the U.S. following the death of George Floyd. Events in Stockton, California, began on Sunday, May 31, 2020. Before the demonstrations, Mayor Michael Tubbs (D) and other city officials hosted a virtual community town hall on policing and community relations. No curfews were issued. The national guard was not deployed.

To read more about the death of George Floyd and subsequent events, click [show] to the right.

On May 25, 2020, Minneapolis police officers arrested Floyd, a Black man, after receiving a call that he had made a purchase with a counterfeit $20 bill. Floyd died after Derek Chauvin, a White officer, arrived at the scene and pressed his knee onto Floyd's neck as Floyd laid face-down on the street in handcuffs. Both the Hennepin County Medical Examiner and an independent autopsy conducted by Floyd's family ruled Floyd's death as a homicide stemming from the incident. The medical examiner's report, prepared by Dr. Michael Baden and Dr. Allecia Wilson, said that it was "not a legal determination of culpability or intent, and should not be used to usurp the judicial process." On April 20, 2021, Chauvin was found guilty of murder and manslaughter in relation to Floyd's death. Floyd's death was filmed and shared widely, leading to activity regarding racism, civil rights, and police use of force. The first events took place in Minneapolis-St. Paul on May 26. An event in Chicago organized by Chance the Rapper and Rev. Michael Pfleger took place the same day, making it the first major city outside of Minneapolis to host an event in response to Floyd's death.
