Momma I Made It: Stockton Mayor Michael Tubbs
President Tubbs? You heard it here first! But for now, Stockton Mayor Michael Tubbs is one of the youngest mayors of a city with a population of more than 100,000 (although it’s more like ~310,000). He was elected in 2016 at the age of 26. Nyge drives to Stockton, California to chat up the mayor about success, Tupac, and his city’s basic income program.
