My occupation is Supervisor, City and County of San Francisco.
My qualifications are:
As a San Francisco Supervisor, tenants rights attorney, and educator, I’ve delivered progressive, practical solutions to San Francisco’s toughest challenges.
I championed guaranteed mental health care for all, 24-hour bathrooms, 5,000+ new housing units in my district, and as Chair of the Budget and Finance Committee, I secured record investments in housing, public safety, and small business relief.
When the pandemic hit, I authored legislation to house 2,000+ people experiencing homelessness, worked shifts at a COVID shelter hotel during a staff shortage, and delivered mass vaccination sites citywide.
I’m running for State Assembly because we need bold, effective leadership to build more housing, get homeless people off the streets, and confront the crisis of climate change.
Priorities:
• Build 100,000 new housing units in San Francisco over 10 years to make housing more affordable for all.
• Expand supportive housing and mental health care to dramatically reduce street homelessness.
• Confront climate change with investments in renewable energy and sustainable transit.
• Support community policing, stop anti-Asian hate crimes, and get guns and fentanyl off the streets with effective consequences.
• Make huge corporations and CEOs who made billions during the pandemic pay their fair share.
• Protect LGBTQ+ rights, civil rights, and women’s rights.
