Asian American Action Fund Congratulates Gina Ortiz Jones on Historic Win as San Antonio Mayor
Washington, D.C. - Today, the Asian American Action Fund (AAAFund) proudly congratulates Gina Ortiz Jones on her election as Mayor of San Antonio. Endorsed by AAAFund in March, her victory marks a historic milestone for the AAPI community and all Americans who believe in inclusive, principled leadership.
“Gina’s win is a powerful reminder that representation matters,” said AAAFund National Chair Albert Shen. “From her trailblazing military and federal service to her deep ties to San Antonio, Gina embodies the strength, resilience, and vision our communities need. Her leadership will inspire future generations and elevate voices too often left out of the conversation.”
As we celebrate this historic achievement, we also reaffirm our commitment to supporting AAPI candidates across the country. Building a more inclusive future means investing in leaders who reflect the full diversity of our nation and champion equity at every level of government.
