Together, we can realize a bold new vision for San Francisco.
Since being elected to the Board of Supervisors, I have led the fight to make San Francisco more affordable for all, through innovative solutions.
I have authored multiple pieces of legislation to cut red tape and streamline affordable housing, while expanding protections for renters with the No Hidden Rent Act. I've introduced initiatives like the Affordable Groceries Act to advance city-funded grocery stores, and ensured equity in homeless services with the One City Shelter Act.
And we've fought to protect San Franciscans from safety challenges. From authoring the country's first ICE Free Zones legislation to push back against federal encroachment, to advancing a Drug Market Intervention strategy to tackle our city's fentanyl crisis.
And we're just getting started. Together, we can continue to create a safe, vibrant, and inclusive San Francisco.
Our city is unaffordable. As a lifelong renter, I know this personally. San Francisco is the slowest city to approve new buildings in the entire state, or to build or even remodel a home. It doesn’t have to be this way. As Supervisor I have led on streamlining affordable housing while expanding renter protections, because we have to make San Francisco more affordable for the residents who already live here while building more homes for those who seek to live here.
Here's what we're doing:
Many neighborhoods in the city, from the Bayview to the Fillmore, have become food deserts as we lose access to full-service grocery stores and banking options. As Supervisor I have launched initiatives to expand city-funded grocery stores and raise hundreds of millions of dollars for our city budget. Such solutions are necessary for equitable access to food and socials services for our families, children, and seniors.
Here's what we're doing:
Safety is paramount. For years, fentanyl overdoses and the open air drug market have been left unchecked. We have to address this crisis with innovation and collaboration. As Supervisor, I have worked with our public safety leaders to advance innovate solutions while also supporting the basics of community policing, because every San Franciscan deserves to feel safe be it in their own home or walking to school.
Here's what we're doing:
The Trump Administration has steadily encroached on the rights of San Franciscans. From threats of deportation against our immigrant community to the stripping of LGBTQIA+ and reproductive rights, civil rights have come increasingly under threat. As Supervisor, I have authored multiple bills to ensure San Franciscans are protected when they are on city property, when they apply for jobs, and when they seek housing.
Here's what we're doing:
We have over a billion dollars in our city budget to address our homelessness crisis. The problem isn't lack of money, but a fragmented government response and an inequitable allocation of resources. As Supervisor, I have authored first-of-its-kind legislation to demand geographic equity of homeless services while investing in prevention to ensure people don't become homeless to begin with.
Here's what we're doing:
We must ensure public transit is safe and reliable for all pedestrians, cyclists, and families. San Franciscans deserve action on new solutions alongside accountability for corporations that increase the risk of traffic accidents. As Supervisor, I have expanded funding for traffic calming investments while holding hearings to investigate traffic failures.
Here's what we're doing:
Our city code has grown bloated with decades upon decades of compounding laws. These laws have created inconsistencies and loopholes that have slowed down delivery of services to reduced trust in our government. As Supervisor, I have authored charter reform measures and legislation to reconcile these laws and ensure better governance for all San Franciscans.
Here's what we're doing:
Our downtown economy has struggled to rebound due to an overliance on single industries. To truly bring back San Francisco we must make it easier to operate and support small businesses, while improving economic diversity. That's why as Supervisor I have expanded entertainment zones across the city while launching initiatives for new visions for the theater and arts in SF.
