We need to help our homeless population off the street and into care & shelter. This starts by investing in homelessness prevention programs, having the tools & resources to address mental health & addiction problems on our streets, and creating more stable housing options.

At the root of so many of our issues is our housing crisis. Our unending systems of laws seems designed as if to say NO to creating more homes, and we've seen the results. It’s time to say YES to more affordable housing, more middle income housing, and more market rate housing.

Public safety must improve. I know what it’s like to grow up around drugs and violence. We need more police officers to address the rash of property crimes and unsafe behavior, while implementing needed reforms to improve the relationship between police and communities of color.

As a SFUSD graduate, I’m committed to building more teacher housing, prioritizing neighborhood schools, and creating opportunities for paid internships and job training. We’ll tell the President that in SF we don’t put children in cages; we put them in classrooms!

We have so much to do: re-envision our transportation system to make biking safer and improve Muni, invest in our parks, rebuild the seawall, reform our criminal justice system, support small business, and protect all our communities from what comes from Washington D.C.
