Our Mission
RACHEL HORST
DEMONSTRATED LEADERSHIP, PROGRESSIVE VALUES
I am a Menlo Park Housing Commissioner and advocate for a more equitable and sustainable Bay Area. As the Housing Project Manager for the City of East Palo Alto, I am responsible for implementing the city's affordable housing strategy, which includes doubling the number of affordable housing units by 2023, and managing its new inclusionary housing program.
As a former legislative analyst for the University of California system, I have expertise in both state and local policy. I recently served as campaign manager for a successful City Council campaign. I sit on the board of Alta Housing and am a member of multiple Peninsula-based organizations committed to the issues I care most about: housing affordability, a viable and interconnected transportation system, and healthy and resilient communities for all.
I am running because I believe the Democratic Party has the potential to take on systemic inequalities and make real progress on the toughest challenges our state faces.
