Here’s the Gift Link, and be sure to read the linked research study. Contingency management strategies aren’t just CLINICALLY effective — they’re COST effective. And I’m planning legislation for next year to dramatically expand the approach in San Francisco. (2/2).

Today’s @NYTimes reports on a bold and effective strategy that helps growing numbers of people overcome “the ferocity of meth addiction” — and find real success in recovery. It mentions San Francisco’s “Cash Not Drugs” program, which my legislation created last year . (1/2)

City contracting is broken. If San Franciscans had any idea how many wasteful “feel-good” mandates have been piled into our city contracts over the decades — to make competitive bidding LESS competitive, and goods and services MORE expensive — they’d be as infuriated as I am.

I just contributed to a project honoring Roger Casement, an Irish LGBTQ+ hero. His legacy matters. Please consider donating or sharing to help create his plaque in San Francisco. 🇮🇪🏳️‍🌈.

Bottom line: a large segment of our City’s workforce and retirees relied on access to @UCSFHospitals’ physicians and services when they chose @BlueShieldCA during open enrollment. For Blue Shield to now materially eliminate these healthcare options — in the middle of a plan year

This obnoxious behavior doesn’t represent San Francisco’s LGBTQ+ community, and our ally — Mayor @DanielLurie — deserves better. Everyone in the LGBTQ+ community needs to start calling out this embarrassing fringe that’s badly hurting the cause of LGBTQ+ progress for all of us.
