So here's the deal. now Mayor Lurie reached out to me years ago, before he was running for mayor, because he knew I was on the SF Drug Dealing Task Force and wanted to learn about the issues facing the area. We walked the TL/Mid Market area multiple times. He then walked it with

I had a productive meeting with law enforcement, department, and community leaders today on 6th St discussing the unacceptable conditions on our streets and how we can get results. The Fentanyl State of Emergency Ordinance will be crucial to getting this crisis under control.

Good on our Mayor @DanielLurie who isn't taking the bait and is staying the course of keeping our local SF business first. There is going to be a new level of crazy coming out of Washington and we as a city need to react calmly and smartly to protect our communities, our values,

Today I announced my co-sponsorship of Mayor Lurie's Fentanyl Emergency Package. We've seen far too much suffering on our streets. This set of actions will take steps towards saving lives, getting people into treatment, holding drug dealers accountable, and safe, clean streets.

This is important. DMACC has shown results and is a great example of City, County, State & Federal agencies coordinating and cooperating, and in turn, making progress on attacking the Open Air Drug Markets in S.F. Good call, Mayor Lurie.

San Francisco’s partnership with federal prosecutors has been key to ending the 24-hour-a-day drug markets that once operated with impunity in SOMA and Tenderloin neighborhoods. And yes, I hope that partnership continues in the Trump Administration. /1 https://t.co/7Adpw1ykUm

As we continue to focus on non-profit accountability in San Francisco, we must look at our own city departments first as they are enabling much of what we see today in regards to misappropriation of funds. Take @SF_DPH for example.

It’s as if Tumlin is asking for the new Mayor - who clearly stated his position is S.F. Govt should work for the citizens- to fire him on Lurie’s first day in office… Who in their right mind would OK such an asinine policy? It’d be easy to write warnings until the curbs are

Multiple sources at San Francisco City Hall tell me Mayor Breed is considering her campaign advisor Conor Johnston for D2 supervisor appointment as Catherine Stefani heads to CA Assembly. He would be a VERY controversial pick. “It’s fucking crazy,” a City Hall insider said.
