Our wisest long-term investment is not in the dirty polluting fossil fuels from the past, but in the clean energy of the future.

We need more housing in San Francisco, plain and simple, and we especially need more affordable housing for our low-income households, seniors, teachers, formerly homeless people, veterans, and middle-income residents.

Every day on our streets there are people who are facing a combination of homelessness, mental illness, and addiction. Each of these conditions is challenging alone, but when experienced at the same time it creates a downward spiral that makes it even more difficult for the person to get treated and housed.

To our health care workers and essential employees: Thank you for everything you are doing.

In San Francisco, our diversity is our strength.

We can't keep limiting ourselves when it comes to housing. Affordable housing and teacher housing are too crucial to let the failed policies of the past get in the way.

Burdensome fees have made it harder for people to exit the criminal justice system.

By providing every student with a quality education, and the materials they need for class and to do their homework, we can help students from all backgrounds learn and thrive.

Both San Francisco and New York are taking bold, sweeping action to reduce emissions, make our infrastructure more resilient and improve the health of our people. We are also leading the charge against those who continue to deny the existence of climate change.
