[Rex Richardson @RexRichardson]

I’m excited to announce my campaign for Long Beach Mayor. Long Beach provided me with an opportunity to put down roots, build a family, and spend every day making our community a better place for every resident.

[Rex Richardson @RexRichardson]

Tonight was a good night.

Long Beach is a city on the rise. And we’re just getting started.

The job’s not finished.

[Rex Richardson @RexRichardson]

@spacevoidster @sublime @jakobscastle False. Long Beach does not have a sales tax increase proposal. The County of LA does.

[Rex Richardson @RexRichardson]

@MGRADS Agreed. I can’t find it anywhere.

[BOMA GLA @BOMAGLA1915]

Great to hear from @LongBeachMayor @RexRichardson about all the activations Long Beach will be undertaking for their Olympic preparation at our board meeting.

Grateful for the Mayor’s commitment to public safety and a pro #CRE environment so our industry can thrive in LB! #Jobs

We need a candidate for Governor who will commit to working with frontline Mayors to drive strong local and regional economies and build housing, while solving the social issues of our time.

Great cities are what make California thrive.

[Office of Mayor Rex Richardson @LongBeachMayor]

Great news: Long Beach has been awarded an $11 million Encampment Resolution Grant from the State of California to clean up our riverbed and get our unhoused neighbors into the services they need.

We’ve made great progress with our previous encampment resolution programs, and we’re going to continue focusing on these strategies that we know work.

Thank you to @cagovernor Newsom, our State partners, and @CountyofLA for working with us to bring these resources to bear. We’ll keep you updated—stay tuned.

Go ‘head @kendricklamar!

[Rex Richardson @RexRichardson]

We understand the assignment.

[Office of Mayor Rex Richardson @LongBeachMayor]

This morning, I joined teachers, community members, and other elected leaders to speak out in defense of our US Department of Education, our educators, and our students.

We have to say no to every attempt to undermine our democracy and our children’s access to quality public education.

[Rex Richardson @RexRichardson]

Longest January ever. Can it be February now? Or can it be Friday already?!

[Rex Richardson @RexRichardson]

It’s going to be a long night.

Rest assured, in Long Beach and across California, we will continue to protect our women and girls, our freedoms, and our values, no matter the outcome of the national election.

There is no challenge we can’t overcome, if we work together.

[Rex Richardson @RexRichardson]

Long Beach voters have spoken, and they are saying Yes to the future we want in our city.

With early returns showing measures LB, JB, and HC with a strong lead, we’re looking forward to a brighter future full of opportunity for all our residents.

Thank you Long Beach!

LB gotta represent!

[Rex Richardson @RexRichardson]

Today, we brought the LBC to Nehemiah Ministries @nehemiahLV in Nevada, to help get our “Souls to the Polls” for #HarrisWalz.

We have 16 days left to chart a new way forward. Now is our time to build an opportunity economy, where everyone thrives. That’s the promise of America.

[Rex Richardson @RexRichardson]

We want our kids to dream big and become the next generation of public servants.

Your vote can make those dreams come true, right here in the City of Long Beach, by voting YES on Measure JB, the Long Beach Jobs Promise.
