I’m still quite sore but full of gratitude for all of you who contributed towards 🌞-powered 🔋s to 🇺🇦 as part of my tenth race for #ukraine since 2022. It’s not too late, and the link is below. givebutter.com/run-for-ukra... Thank you!#l #SlavaUkrani

Rnning the #sfhalf for solar-powered batteries to my homeland of #ukraine. It’s my 10th run for 🇺🇦 since 2022, and I’d be so honored if you might be able to kick in any multiple of $10 for this occasion. givebutter.com/run-for-ukra... Thx for your support every step of the way! #SlavaUkrani 🏃🇺🇦🔋🌞💙💛

Proud to stand with @unitehere.org Local 2 workers as they fight to unionize Graduate Hotel. When we fight, we win! 💪

Thank you SF City Attorney David Chiu for your endorsement of my re-election to the #berkeley City Council in #district4. I’m proud how our respective cities are working together to stand up to the unlawful actions of the current federal administration while fighting for our local communities.

Proud to be endorsed by the League of Conservation Voters of the East Bay for my reelection to the #berkeley City Council in #district4. I look forward continued our partnership for a Berkeley that builds on its long history of climate leadership. 🌍🌳🌞

Deeply honored to earn the endorsement of State Senator Dr. Aisha Wahab, a warrior for the people of #california, in my reelection to the #berkeley City Council #district4. Thank you Senator! 💙

Thanks @ebyd.bsky.social for surprising me with this. 18 years ago you took a chance on a then- 23 yo kid and gave me my first organizational endorsement. As I’ve sought to pay it forward since, my heart and spirit are full through the young folks I’ve mentored and supported. Young gets it done! 💙

Thank you to #albany Director Robin D. López and @bikeeastbay.bsky.social for your heartfelt testimony. I have seen firsthand how the purchase of an e-bike has transformed the lives of many of my #berkeley constituents and am damn proud that we can continue to play a small but mighty role in this. 🚲

Huge thanks to Berkeley Councilmember @igortregub.bsky.social for going a step beyond what staff recommended, amending the motion to increase the budget from $2 million to $3 million!

Last week I had the opportunity to attend the national @localprogress.bsky.social convening in #Baltimore. My heart is full from the experience and my head is full of ideas I’ve learned and workshopped there about how to get ourselves into all sorts of #goodtrouble. Thank you LP! 💪

I took the next step in our journey toward a #berkeley we can all call home by turning in 200 signatures in lieu from Berkeley voters and taking out papers for my re/election to the City Council. It would by my deepest honor to continue serving our beloved #district4 community for a full term.

Congratulations to all the producers (many of them doing this for the first time) all of whom came up with masterpieces at Berkeley Community Media’s 16th Annual Summer Shorts Movie Jam: 48 Hour Filmmaker Challenge! 🎥 🎞️ #downtown #berkeley #discoveredinberkeley #district4

Deeply honored to join Sean Dugar and @victorfloresbart.bsky.social on an @ebyd.bsky.social alumni panel for a wide-ranging convo, from how our time there led to skill-building and lifelong friendships, to the importance of paying it forward and mentoring the next generation. Young gets it done! 💪

Just a year after its ribbon-cutting, the Ivy is at over 80% occupancy, providing seniors with a beautiful place in #downtown #berkeley that they can call home. Thank you to the amazing staff who make it possible! #district4 #discoveredinberkeley 🏡

It gives me so much joy to see all that Visit Berkeley does to build community, celebrate the wins, and, along with Stainable Ink, even help teach us how to make prints in #downtown #berkeley! ⚽️ #discoveredinberkeley #district4

Our #berkeley #district4 team visited Outbaking, home of the famous rugelachs produced by refugees from #ukraine. Ghost kitchens are economical ways for small businesses to support good jobs for all. We are working to expand these opportunities everywhere. #downtown #slavaukraini 🇺🇦 💛 💙

Our #berkeley #district4 team was excited to visit the YWCA Berkeley/Oakland at its Pride Film Night. We thank all who work and volunteer their time there and provide such important services to the community. 🌈 #discoveredinberkeley

Terrifying that only a narrow majority of #SCOTUS upheld birthright citizenship. 3 justices declared that POTUS can unilaterally rewrite the Constitution. This pains me as a naturalized citizen who votes & holds public office. You best believe I’ll keep exercising my rights for as long as I’m able!

I'm running for reelection because I believe in what we're building together in #Berkeley, and I need your help by end of today. After 6/30 my campaign will file its first campaign finance report of 2026. The max contribution is just $60. CAN YOU CHIP IN TODAY? secure.actblue.com/donate/igor-... 🙏

Last night I attended two incredible performances in #district4: Mads Tolling and John Burr at The Back Room and a Pride-themed performance at The Freight featuring legends like Vicki Randle, Skip the Needle, and Linda Tillery. Thank you for enriching us in #downtown #berkeley! #discoveredinberkeley

At a time when all that we love and many whom we love are under attack nationally, it is particularly special for me to stand with the LGBTQ+ community today. Happy Pride! 🌈

Had the best time attending Pride Night and RootStock Arts Live as part of the Berkeley Rep’s “The Lunchbox” production. Both made me proud to, as an immigrant, have the privilege to serve our #downtown #berkeley community - a sanctuary and destination for all. #district4 #discoveredinberkeley 🌈

Thank you to the Ecology Center Farmers' Market for bringing summer solstice joy, fresh strawberries 🍓, and beloved community to #downtown #berkeley! #discoveredinberkeley #district4
