You’ll find me on the job site, volunteering in our neighborhoods, and working for you at City Hall. As a union superintendent and your councilmember, I believe in showing up, solving problems, and getting the job done. I’m asking for your vote to keep serving Martinez.

Serving Martinez goes beyond council meetings. Through Carpenters Who Care, I help restore historic sites and homes for our community. I serve on the board of Loaves and Fishes and roll up my sleeves for creek and neighborhood cleanups. This is what being your neighbor means to me.

In Martinez, we look out for each other and we support leaders who actually know how to get things done. That is why I am stepping up to support Allison Picard for the Contra Costa Water District Board. With over forty years of public service, executive experience in finance and administration, and deep local roots right here in Martinez as chair of our Civil Service Commission, Allison is uniquely qualified to protect our water and manage our public resources responsibly.

Our young people deserve opportunities to learn, build confidence, and discover what they’re capable of. That’s why I raised $25,000 for the Martinez Sea Scouts’ 36-foot training boat, Albatross. Putting community first means doing the work to help the next generation succeed.

I know what it means to put in a hard day’s work. As a union superintendent, I’ve stood alongside healthcare workers, blue collar workers, and neighbors speaking up for fair treatment. I bring that same commitment to City Hall: listen, show up, and stand with the people you serve.

Jay Howard isn't a career politician, he is a local union guy, a construction superintendent, and a neighbor who cares deeply about Martinez. That is why senior leaders who represent our region in Washington, U.S. Representatives John Garamendi, Mike Thompson, and Mark DeSaulnier, trust Jay and proudly support his re-election to the City Council. While others talk politics, Jay rolls up his sleeves and delivers practical results for our families, our seniors, and our neighborhoods. Earned trust.

Figures cover domestic political ads paid in dollars, from 4 May 2026. Spend is the sum of Meta’s range midpoints; impressions above one million are reported as “1M+”, so impression figures are floors. Each ad counts in the week its delivery started, with its lifetime spend at our last pull; ads still running before the vote are counted as of 31 October 2026.
