Fentanyl addiction is killing my son. But California drug laws enable him instead of helping. - USA TODAY

I hope my son gets arrested and is forced to enter drug treatment. But permissive drug laws in California instead make death more and more likely.

Deeply humbled that MADAAD is being recognized as a 'Champion of Change' by @SFDemocrats. This honor belongs to every mother who turned pain into purpose, fighting to shut down open drug markets & get vulnerable people the healthcare they need. Thank you! 🙏 #MADAAD #SFDems2025

Housing First with no path to recovery & independence isn't working. It traps people in dependency, not freedom. #RethinkPolicy

It's literally everything I've been saying. San Francisco has evidence to support this, too. We were right. And now, HUD agrees. @Gina_McDee @SteveAdami

A great public servant is one who shows up and listens @DanielLurie arrived early to our vigil. No fanfare. No entourage. He spoke to and listened to everyone. He was accessible and open hearted. He stayed for the entire vigil. MADAAD thanks you Mayor 🙏 @StopDrugDeaths
Last night, we came together to remember those we’ve lost to overdose—and recommit to building a system that saves lives. San Francisco is changing how we respond to the drug crisis: expanding treatment and recovery beds, opening a 24/7 stabilization center, and connecting

This is progress, and San Franciscans who agree should stand with Mayor @DanielLurie in demanding an end to public drug use. Follow and join @DrugFreeSidewlk. Let’s build a coalition for next year’s elections that will shut down drug tourism, enable real recovery, and save lives.
San Francisco will always lead with services, but let me be clear: There will no longer be an option for people to sleep and use drugs on our streets. https://t.co/oGv1kgV5JP

SF's 'City Family' thinks they can outsmart @DanielLurie? Pfft, good luck. This man’s not here to play nice with your bloated budgets. Underestimate him all you want, but Lurie’s got the guts to slash that $820M deficit & drag this city into fiscal reality. Buckle up,
Despite Mayor Daniel Lurie's directive, more than 20 departments failed to meet their 15% budget reduction targets, placing the city’s financial planning in peril. 📝: @FitzTheReporter

Thank you @mattdorsey 🙏🏼 As an organization of moms who have witnessed the devastating toll of addiction on our kids, our families, and our communities, we believe the Recovery First Ordinance offers the clarity & hope needed to save lives & help people reclaim their futures.

When people call families of addiction victims "fools" and "propagandists" while we fight to save our loved ones, it's beyond cruel. My daughter suffered severe addiction and violence on SF streets. Jacqui's son is currently homeless and near death.
