Assemblyman Leland Yee: Continuing to Serve
Life takes many unexpected turns. I studied to become a child psychologist,
but as I pursued my educational career, I never thought that I would hold an
elected office, nor that I would serve as a representative of the people.
I never dreamed, nor expected, that one day I would be a San Francisco supervisor.
My interests and my life have become inextricably intertwined with your own,
as fellow residents of San Francisco and of the Sunset.
For the last six years, it has been my honor to serve as your supervisor, first
on a citywide basis and, for the past two years, specifically representing District
4 at City Hall. I have done my best to make the City and the Sunset a better
place to live, work and enjoy. Children's playgrounds, pools and schools have
been improved and senior services have been supported and enhanced. Access to
health services, always a major concern for me, has been a priority.
The Sunset is changing, but still maintains a character which reflects the lives
and efforts of the hard-working, community-oriented folk who make the Sunset
their home. It is a wonderful place to live. In those early hopes and dreams.
I also never anticipated that I would be going to Sacramento as your representative
in the California Assembly. I thank you most humbly for your support and I promise
that I will continue to serve you to the best of my ability as a representative
of the 12th Assembly District.
I have asked my present staff - RenŽe Pittin, DJ Canepa and Denis Quinn - to
continue to work with me and for you, in this new endeavor. I begin this new
chapter in my life with some trepidation, but also with great expectation.
The one certainty is my wish and my intention to do my very best for you and
for the District. Please keep in touch with my office. My phone number in Sacramento
is (916) 319-2012 and the fax number is (916) 319-2112. I can also be reached
