Being a public servant requires discipline. I would love to publish a book of public servants’ unsent tweets of 2020/1.

Our #digitalinclusion efforts w/many partners have brought free broadband to 100,000 low-income residents, & will connect more than 300,000 in @EastSanJose —equivalent to a city the size of Pittsburgh—by 2022. Pls call 408.716.3811 for help. https://t.co/NuXSl69M2t

So proud to be a former member of the @sliccardo team that pushed for #digitalinclusion in #SanJose! Keep on pushing Sam & @sanjosemoti!

COVID-19 exposes the digital divide in our community. The Digital Inclusion Expenditure Plan approved by Council will connect 11k-students to wireless hotspots—ensuring that every San Joséan can access online learning.

What makes a city “smart” post-pandemic? How much privacy will residents swap for convenience? On Wed @AnnCavoukian, @SSantosham, @nsjacob, @anthonymobile, and @JBradley_DC will tackle these questions + live ones from YOU.
