Candidate for
Member of the State Assembly; District 22

Kevin is a candidate for the California State Assembly in the newly-created Assembly District 22 in San Mateo County. He is running to succeed Assemblymember Jerry Hill who is a candidate for the State Senate. The primary election is this June 5 and the general election is November 6. Kevin is campaigning based upon a strong record of leadership during very challenging times in South San Francisco, where he served as mayor and is currently in his second term on the City Council. Kevin's leadership contributed to the city's track record as a countywide leader in sustainable planning, fiscal responsibility, and economic development.

Kevin's roots run deep in San Mateo County. He attended public and Catholic elementary schools, graduated from Junipero Serra High School, received a B.A. in Communications from the University of San Francisco, and a master's degree in public administration (M.P.A.) from San Francisco State University. Additionally, Kevin completed an executive leadership program at Harvard University's Kennedy School of Government.

He served as District Director for then-State Senator Jackie Speier (now our Congresswoman) and as Political Director for his father, former State Assemblymember Gene Mullin (both endorsed his candidacy). As an entrepreneur, Kevin created KM2 Communications--a multimedia production business in South San Francisco. He produced public affairs programming seen on local television and hosted various programs seen on Peninsula-TV Channel 26. He represents the cities of San Mateo County on the Metropolitan Transportation Commission (MTC), and has served for nearly 10 years on the Workforce Investment Board of San Mateo County.

Key campaign endorsers include U.S. Congresswomen Jackie Speier and Anna Eshoo, State Senators Leland Yee and Joe Simitian, State Assemblymembers Jerry Hill, Rich Gordon, and Fiona Ma, all five members of the San Mateo County Board of Supervisors, as well as community leaders from throughout our county. The California Democratic Party endorsed Kevin as well.

Kevin's priorities at the State Capitol will be to:

• Promote job creation and the innovation economy
• Enhance education and workforce development systems
• Encourage environmentally sustainable regional planning
• Balance the state budget in a fiscally-responsible manner
• Work in a bi-partisan way to reform state governance
