- Housing
-
Despite skyrocketing housing costs that have displaced thousands of San Francisco residents, our city still lacks a comprehensive permanent affordable housing policy.
- Violence Prevention
-
To better deal with unsafe situations in District 9, we need to redefine community policing and deal with the root causes of our societal ills.
- Transportation
-
It is critical for our prosperity that we have an integrated transportation policy that promotes pedestrian, bicycle and public transit over automobile use. In fact, the Transit First policy of our City Charter mandates it.
