Did you know there was, once, major opposition to the Golden Gate Bridge and Crissy Field? “Supporting this oceanside park is the right side of history”

I’m disappointed the Bay Area housing bond was pulled.
We’ll continue working toward a 2026 transit funding measure. Absent action, 2026 is when major transit systems will start cutting service.
I look forward to also supporting a future housing bond. We’re in this together.

Why do San Francisco's Painted Ladies have property taxes ranging from $1,000 to $44,000?

But what’s most important is that San Francisco can, and should, adopt a rezoning plan that results in far more housing than the current draft. This is the only way to meet our CA state requirements, and this is what we committed to do when we passed the Housing Element. – at San Francisco, CA

BIG shoutout to @Scott_Wiener and @SPUR_Urbanist for cutting years and millions of dollars of cost from delivering fast bus projects. Proud to have been part of this permitting reform, and excited to be working on permitting reform for clean energy equipment installs full time!

For anyone who’s ever wondered whether they should go out & vote or knock that extra door. Each & every vote sure does matter.
And now @Evan_Low and @joesimitian are TIED for second place. Exactly 30,249 votes each -- incredible

Inject this into my veins.
6-8 story buildings across the city has always been the right approach, love all of this.
Thank you Mayor @LondonBreed
Mayor London Breed wants city planners to scale back some tall heights that would be permitted under the city’s proposal to allow denser housing in many neighborhoods. trib.al/DqDAdzx

I’ll add to the chorus: It is extremely disappointing to see the SF Board of Supervisors fail their city by getting in the way of new housing. Really hope this terrible vote is an exception, & that the BOS doesn’t continue to move the City backwards on its housing goals.
Today’s anti-housing veto override by the Board of Supervisors is a black eye for San Francisco. @AaronPeskin’s ordinance is the latest move in his decades-long effort to obstruct new housing in our city. Extreme zoning restrictions like these are one cause of our housing crisis.

If you go to cities around the world that are thriving and that are more affordable, they're building housing.
They're building up. They're building dense. They're embracing growth, change, and diversity. San Francisco can do that too. But not like this. This definitely ain't it.
San Francisco has a housing shortage and a housing crisis. The idea that building less and placing more limits on housing growth, even in our downtown neighborhoods, is going to make us more affordable is deeply misguided. It's contradicted by the experience of cities all over and it's exacerbating San Francisco's affordability crisis.
San Francisco is not building housing and every vote they take seems to move us backward. The state will step in, again, as votes like this from city officials will leave us no choice.

We’ve worked hard to reform SF’s catastrophic approach to housing — an approach that’s caused explosive housing costs.
The Board of Supervisors will vote on whether to back-slide by overriding the Mayor’s veto of an anti-housing proposal.
My piece on why it shouldn’t override:
