Ever wonder why kids aren’t allowed to take Algebra in the 8th grade in San Francisco? And what were the unintended consequences of that policy? This OpEd offers some common sense lessons.
My view: if a kid likes math, do everything to encourage it!

12 million jobs created under President Biden.
That’s more jobs created in two years than any President in a four-year term.

I took this pledge. Open air drug markets in San Francisco can’t be tolerated. We must arrest and prosecute the dealers of deadly fentanyl. To save lives, we must offer both harm reduction and recovery services for users suffering from addiction — and compel it when necessary.

Sign the @GrowSF petition demanding the arrest and prosecution of fentanyl dealers.
Thank you @LondonBreed, @JoelEngardio, @SupStefani, @mattdorsey, @RafaelMandelman, and @Ahsha_Safai for supporting our call for action!

If San Francisco continues scaling up Permanent Supportive Housing (PSH) at the rate we have over the past six years, we will surpass $11 billion in annual spending on PSH in 18 years. But we’re facing down a $727 million deficit - we will have no choice but to do more with less.

The latest in "shit that is mandated to have 'public hearings about' because our zoning code is bloated beyond all recognition":
* Replacing some stairs
* Expanding a rear-yard deck, which needs a variance
This is what we waste precious staff and gov time with😡😡😡

The fact that @sfplanning and SF City Government spends a non-trivial amount of time notifying a bunch of "interested parties" on listservs about trivial shit like this...

Interesting data dive on the cost of maintaining SF public school facilities.
SF Unified has to contend with the reality that it is a system built to educate 61k students but only has 50k students.

This is ridiculous.
San Francisco has real issues - like dirty streets - that the Department of Public Works should be focused on. Not this.

You’ve been paying into Social Security and Medicare with every paycheck since you were 16 years old.
House Republicans want to cut these programs.
President Biden wants to strengthen them.

Thank you Chuck and Tony for asking me to officiate your marriage. It was my first as an elected official.
It’s meaningful because gay people weren’t allowed to marry for most of my life. The prospect was impossible when I was a kid. Now I’m marrying gay couples.
Love won.

This transformative moment didn’t happen randomly. We changed state law to MAKE it happen:

America's scourge of gun violence continues. This doesn't happen in other countries, and it doesn't have to happen in ours.
I'm gutted that this is so deeply impacting AAPI communities who have already been under tremendous oppression and hate in recent years.

For the past 2 years, House Democrats helped President Biden deliver historic progress for the people.
Money in pockets, shots in arms, millions of jobs, infrastructure, gun safety, marriage equality, climate justice, vets cancer care and more.

We agree. San Francisco is facing a drug crisis with major humanitarian consequences. We must acknowledge the sheer scale of the problem before we can solve it.

It’s rare to see someone with two bylines above the fold but the drug crisis in our city is just that important and @TrishaThadani owns that beat.

Dean Preston's longstanding record of killing SF housing shows why his latest stunt is performative politics as usual. nimby.report/preston

Replying to @TSFAction @DeanPreston and 4 others
Not only are projects suppose to go out for bid, Preston led the way in delaying the original housing proposal (which is now infeasible).

On point OpEd by my friend and parent Alex Wong: “San Franciscans are tired of political nonsense. They want leaders to focus on students and rebuild trust with families.” We can’t let the school board go back to its old ways.
