The Emperor Norton Trust is pleased to announce that the Chinese Historical Society of America has issued a statement in support of the Trust's proposal that the San Francisco–Oakland Bay Bridge tunnel through Yerba Buena Island, S.F., be named the EMPEROR NORTON TUNNEL.

The statement includes a broader endorsement of The Emperor Norton Trust’s long-term project of research, education, and advocacy that positions the Emperor’s support for the Chinese in the context of his larger civic mission.
