Biografía
Hello, I’m Rick Jones, currently on the City Council and running for re-election.
I have been a Fremont resident for nearly forty years, and my wife’s family has been here for several generations. I have dedicated all of that time to serving our community; first as a Police Officer for 29 years, including 9 years as the School Resource Officer at Washington High School. I also taught Traffic School and Driver’s Education at the Adult School for 12 years; coached at Kennedy High School for 5 years; and served 2 years on Fremont’s Planning Commission before being elected to City Council in 2014.
We have accomplished a lot over the last 4 years, but still have a lot of work to do.
I’m running for re-election to continue that work and keep Fremont a great place to live, work, and raise a family.
I have three important priorities: Affordable housing, homelessness, and infrastructure improvements.
The Bay Area is in desperate need of housing at all levels, but especially affordable housing for our lower income residents and our senior population. We need to focus on linking higher density housing to areas around BART, ACE, and AC Transit and invest in the infrastructure of public transit. We are losing an entire generation of young people who cannot afford a place of their own, as well as a growing senior population looking to downsize.
In the last few years, Fremont has also seen an increase in our homeless population. We have implemented several programs and allocated funding to provide much needed services, but need to work on sustainable regional solutions so that we do not exhaust our limited resources.
Traffic and infrastructure improvements are also projects that we have been working on; such as supporting an express lane on I680 from Fremont to Sunol, upgrading to a smart signals system, and identifying funding for a grade separation on Mission Blv between I880 and I680 to keep commuters on the freeways and relieve congestion on city streets.
There is still lot of work to do and I would be honored to have your endorsement and support so that I can to continue to be part of the solution to these and other issues.
Let's keep Fremont the safest, happiest place to live.

Biografía
I grew up outside of the Washington D.C. area in Rockville, Maryland. My mom worked in public service as a parole officer & my dad spent my early childhood working as an editor for the political magazine "Communicator." As a result of the location where we lived & the profession of my parents, I grew up in an environment where local & global politics, as well as public service, were often passionate discussions of the household.
I'm the oldest of five and as anyone from big families can tell you, it gives a strong foundation in leadership through: Diplomacy, coping with unique personalities and feeling an inherent responsiblility to care for and protect your family. It can be a huge job. When you come from a modern family, it takes all of us together to flourish as a family, just as it takes all of us working together to flourish as a community.
Even as a kid, I have been blessed with many opportunities to travel. I was only seven years when I went to Russia with my grandfather who was a travel agent. I was impressed by the vastness and unbridled energy of Russia, but I also saw poverty firsthand, and I will never forget it. Orphans running up to me with no shoes on begging me for cigarettes.
I have witnessed extreme poverty not only in Russia, but here in the United States. As a teenager, I traveled through New Mexico on my way to Philmont Scout Ranch where I saw the tragic living conditions that exist on Native American Reservations.
I also traveled to Quezon City in the Philippines during my junior year of High School. I immersed myself in a wonderful and vibrant culture and will always appreciate the extreme kindness and hospitality of the Filipino people. I also witnessed social problems there that desperately need addresssing, and what I recognized as a lack of government accountability for its citizens' welfare.
Creencias poliza
Filosofía política
My political activism started with Bernie Sandes groups in Fremont, Santa Cruz, Palo Alto, San Francisco, San Jose, Milpitas, Oakland, Santa Clara, Redwood City, Hayward, Union City, Newark, Pleasanton, Sunnyvale and San Lorenzo. We phonebanked, registered voters and canvassed tirelessly for months.
Through my work in Bernie Sanders' Presidential Campaign as a Volunteer Captain, I was elected by a large majority to serve as a Delegate at the Democratic National Convention from Congressional District 17.
In early 2017, I was appointed to the Alameda County Democratic Central Committee by Congressman Ro Khanna to serve as his alternate.
In November of 2017, I was elected as the Chair of the California Democratic Party Veterans Caucus, where I have used my position to advocate for bringing home deported veterans, ending the American military blockade in Yemen and to bring awareness to the humanitarian crisis there.
I also serve as Assembly District 20's representative to the California Democratic Party Executive-Board.
My first run for Fremont City Council was in 2016 where I was honored to be on a slate with incumbent councilmember Vinnie Bacon and Lily Mei for Mayor. I spent the least per vote of any candidate in the race, but did not manage to get a spot on the council on my first try.
I was later appointed to serve on the Human Relations Commission where I can bring my unique perspective as a veteran, a renter, and a "gig economy" worker to the table and work with my fellow commissioners to support human rights and justice.
