San Francisco’s Reopening

La Fénix Affordable Housing Accepting Applications

Get Ready for November:
Local Ballot Measures

• Public Advocate (Supervisor Gordon Mar)
  Since the start of this year, the FBI has brought charges of corruption, bribery, and fraud against several City leaders. We should not have to rely on the feds to keep San Francisco ethical. This measure will give San Franciscans our own Public Advocate, elected by the voters, to serve as a good government watchdog to stop waste and fraud and put an end to the decades-long culture of casual corruption in our city.
• Clean the City Act (Supervisor Matt Haney)
  Finally, we are taking a serious step to deal with our filthy streets. This measure will restructure our unwieldy Public Works department and create a stand alone Department of Street Cleaning and Sanitation with specific standards and accountability measures to ensure clean and healthy streets.

• Police Staffing (President Norman Yee)
  With people across the city and the country demanding justice reform, we must scrutinize our law enforcement budgets and direct our dollars to support effective public safety strategies. In order to give the city the flexibility to adjust staffing and invest funds in community-based solutions, this measure will remove mandatory minimum police staffing levels.
• Sheriff’s Department Oversight Board and Inspector General (Supervisor Shamann Walton)
  We need to address the lack of oversight of the Sheriff’s Department. This measure will create an independent citizen oversight board and inspector general to set policies, investigate misconduct, and recommend disciplinary responses to the Sheriff.

• Overpaid Executive Tax (Supervisor Matt Haney)
  I worked closely with Supervisor Haney to draft this measure that will tax large companies that pay their CEOs exorbitantly more than their average workers. The pandemic is now both a public health crisis and an economic crisis, and the economic inequities in San Francisco have never been more glaring. Our city is home to more billionaires per capita than anywhere else in the world, but we’re struggling to find the funds to pay for nurses, doctors, first responders, and other essential workers just when we need them the most.
• Transfer Tax (Supervisor Dean Preston)
  This measure will double the one-time transfer tax that the city collects on properties that sell for more than $10 million. Sensibly, the collected revenue would be used to increase affordable housing numbers, as well as to help small landlords who forgive tenants for unpaid rent due to the pandemic.

• Vote16 (President Norman Yee)
  The San Francisco Youth Commission is spearheading the campaign to expand voting rights for municipal elections to 16- and 17-year-old city residents. With young people now leading national movements for anti-racism, police reform, climate justice, and more, we need their voices at the ballot box as well.
• Aspiring Citizens (Supervisor Shamann Walton)
  In a similar vein, this measure will remove the outdated clause in our charter that bars non-citizens from serving on policy and oversight boards and commissions. To fully embody San Francisco as a Sanctuary City, we must welcome all members of our community to participate in city government.
