John:

Notice that HRC will be in Los Angeles on Feb. 22nd for fundraiser with Mayor Garcetti.  Any chance we can push to get her down to Ports of Long Beach/Los Angeles or is it too short a window?  If it’s a possibility, I can have Mayor of Long Beach reach out to her.  Would envision a short tour of the facility, short roundtable with industry folks and labor members.  Thoughts?

Best,

Alex Cherin

John - just wanted to thank you for your help in introducing me to Jake and others.  We had our first Infrastructure Committee call last week for the campaign and I am excited both by the caliber of folks in the group and by the issues that will be addressed.

Thanks again and hope to keep you updates as we move forward.

Thanks

John - followed up with Jake.  Thank you.  Guessing your friend referenced below is CH Tung?  If so please send my regards .  His family company OOCL is the entity building The Middle Harbor Project trough their sister company (and my client) LBCT.

Thanks Alex. As I mentioned, we are just at the stage of building out our policy advisory teams so this is timely. I have added Jake Sullivan, our policy director, so his team can follow up. The Middle Harbor project seems like an amazing win-win. After we talked, I ran into a friend from Hong Kong who said his family business was also involved, so small world.

John - it was a pleasure sitting and chatting with you last week in Los Angeles.  As discussed, I would be happy (and honored) to assist the HC campaign on trade and transportation related issues.  Given my professional background as former Executive Officer/Managing Director of the Port of Long Beach I can provide policy support in matters ranging from international trade matters to expertise on transportation related infrastructure.

In addition, we discussed the specific project underway at the Middle Harbor in Long Beach which at build out will be the largest seaport terminal facility in North  America and will utilize all zero emission equipment including the world's largest battery exchange building.

I would be happy to provide more background and facilitate a potential tour of the facility for the Secretary.

I can be reached at [email-masked]<mailto:[email-masked]> or 562-480-7334.

Best,
