Millennial politician
Michael Tubbs
steps up in CaliforniaThe 33-year-old former Stockton mayor is running for statewide office on generational change
even as he stands in solidarity with his party’s aging standard-bearer.#Michael #Tubbs, the 33-year-old wunderkind whose national profile pioneering universal basic income drew praise from Barack Obama and Oprah Winfrey,
is returning to political life just as the Democratic Party is undergoing an existential crisis over the age of its leader.But Tubbs is solidly in Camp Biden.
It’s more important than ever for our party to rally around Joe Biden as our declared nominee,” Tubbs said,calling former President Donald Trump and his vice presidential nominee, J.D. Vance,
“MAGA Large,” and the “MAGA on steroids ticket.”The former mayor of the struggling Central Valley city of Stockton spoke to POLITICO ahead of the planned launch of his campaign for California lieutenant governor on Wednesday, injecting youthful swagger into the far-off contest.
Tubbs’ policy platform to become the Golden State’s No. 2 official in January 2027 aligns with some major priorities Biden is now spotlighting to a core Democratic constituency of minority and working class voters:
helping renters and young home buyers,
expanding education and social programs,
addressing climate change
and protecting jobs from artificial intelligence without stifling the burgeoning industry.Tubbs’ youth and focus on generational change
— he appeared in two documentaries before the age of 30
— comes at a tumultuous time for Democrats, with elected officials and activists torn over whether Biden has the stamina to continue on in the presidential race.Several California politicians are advocating for Vice President Kamala Harris to become the nominee.
The former mayor, a longtime ally of Harris who backed Mike Bloomberg’s presidential run after she dropped out of the primary in 2019,
stressed that he’s solidly behind the Biden-Harris ticket.Trump’s naming of Vance to the ticket on the first day of the Republican National Convention reinforced that position, Tubbs said.
In an interview ahead of his announcement, Tubbs described himself as a “caretaker of the future”
— pledging to use the “bully platform” to advocate for expanding access to higher education,
increasing housing affordability
and bolstering environmental protections.He wants to work closely with lawmakers to sponsor legislation
and said he’s been troubled by what he calls “90s lock ‘em up rhetoric” and fear-driven campaigning to toughen criminal sentences.“I need to get back in the game because we need to get back to our better angels,” Tubbs said, after describing a long process he went through before deciding to launch the comeback bid.
