Bring back jobs and improve local economy
Rich will use his experience as business owner to help create jobs and stand-up to
special interests that are chasing jobs out of San Jose.
“Rich De La Rosa is a local business owner who knows what it takes
to improve our
economy and help bring back jobs.”
Jim Cunneen, former Assemblyman and CEO of San Jose/Silicon Valley Chamber
Strengthening neighborhoods
Rich will continue District 10’s tradition of strong neighborhood involvement and support.
“Rich De La Rosa will be a strong voice for our neighborhoods – he’s earned
my support.
I ask that you join me in supporting him.”
San Jose Vice-Mayor Pat Dando
Improving roads and reducing traffic
Rich supported Measure A and will work to reduce traffic problems, widen Branham Lane and
make sure road improvements are completed on time.
“Rich De La Rosa knows that our economy and quality of life depend on better
roads and
less traffic – more importantly, he’ll work to achieve that goal.”
Bob Dhillon, San Jose Planning Commission
Keeping schools and communities safe
Rich De La Rosa will ensure that police and fire fighters have the tools and personnel
to keep schools and neighborhoods safe from crime and gangs – and he’ll empower communities
to
fight graffiti and juvenile crime.
“Rich will do what is needed to keep our schools and neighborhoods safe
from graffiti,
gangs and violent crime.”
Santa Clara County Sheriff Laurie Smith
Fixing the budget and eliminating waste
Rich will bring his experience as a business owner to the council to tackle tough budget
issues. He strongly supports a Constitutional Amendment to prevent the State Legislature
from ever taking local funds again.
“Rich De La Rosa will ensure a strong voice of fiscal responsibility
and thoughtful
budgets on the City Council.”
Santa Clara County Supervisor Don Gage
Supporting better schools
De La Rosa wants to build partnerships with schools, neighborhoods, businesses and police
to create better, safer schools – and to bring effective mentors to help children succeed.
“Rich De La Rosa will be a strong partner with schools – we need his leadership
on the
San Jose City Council.”
Dawn Wright, Evergreen Community College Trustee
