Michael Tubbs is the Founder of Mayors for a Guaranteed Income (MGI), the Founder of End Poverty in California (EPIC), and the Special Advisor to California Governor Gavin Newsom for Economic Mobility.
In 2016, he was elected Mayor of Stockton, California, and became the youngest Mayor of any major city at 26 years old and the city’s first African-American Mayor. Under his leadership, the National Civic League named Stockton an “All-America City” in 2017 and 2018. Stockton was named the second most fiscally healthy city in California and recognized as one of the most fiscally healthy cities in the nation.
Building off his first-of-its-kind guaranteed income pilot (SEED) and rooted in Dr. King’s legacy, Mayor Tubbs and the Economic Security Project founded Mayors for a Guaranteed Income in June 2020. MGI brings Mayors together to advocate for a guaranteed income to ensure all Americans have an income floor.
