Low’s use of funds is an ethical lapse

Re: “Group accuses candidate of misusing funds” (Page B1, Oct. 3).

Evan Low’s decision to use funds raised for his Assembly campaign on his congressional campaign is a new low for him. He knows that’s not legal.

But Low has shown himself to be just another ethically challenged Sacramento politician willing to break the rules when it benefits his political ambitions. It’s particularly disappointing that this type of behavior comes from a supposed progressive politician.

A vote for Casey is a common-sense vote

As an attorney and longtime resident of Almaden Valley, I’m endorsing George Casey for San Jose City Council, District 10.

Our current council has had its chance, but we are simply not moving the needle or applying bold, common-sense and practical solutions. George’s experience as an attorney will bring valuable insight to the City Council, helping to address the complex issues our district and the city face — whether it’s navigating housing policies, public safety or our multilayered economic issues. His legal background, combined with his work in real estate, make George uniquely qualified to tackle these challenges with a thoughtful, solutions-oriented approach.

I believe George’s expertise will lead to effective policies that create a cleaner, safer and more prosperous future for all of us. District 10 deserves a leader equipped with the skills, vision and drive to deliver real progress.

Measure P needed to improve high schools

Every high school student deserves the opportunity to learn and prepare for college and a career in modern, safe school facilities. That’s why I am voting yes on Measure P for Campbell Union High School District (CUHSD).

CUHSD has served our community for over 100 years. Boynton, Branham, Del Mar, Leigh, Prospect, Westmont, Campbell Adult/Community Education and Camden Post-Secondary High Schools serve more than 8,600 students each day. These aging (and well-used) facilities need modernization and repair.

Measure P will provide stable, local funding to improve CUHSD facilities and support high-quality instruction. This includes: upgrading science labs and career-training facilities and equipment, replacing portable classrooms, repairing deteriorating roofs and plumbing systems, modernizing emergency communications systems, and upgrading older schools to provide proper access for students with disabilities.

Join teachers, parents and community leaders in voting yes on Measure P for our students and our community.
