We were honored to present Certificates of Honor to some amazing second graders at Tenderloin Community School in recognition of their advocacy to activate the vacant lot at 600 McAllister. We are impressed that they are engaging in local government at such a young age to make a difference for the community.

Delighted to be visited by USF students and the Coalition on Homelessness to talk a bit about our work in City Hall, enfranchising people experiencing homelessness, and how a resource-rich city like San Francisco could end homelessness right now.

Street sweeping, steam cleaning, graffiti abatement and more! Thanks to the Public Works team for their hard work in the Lower Haight this morning as part of CleanCorridorsSF. CleanCorridorsSF is a special operation that deploys a large contingent of DPW street cleaners to a different neighborhood commercial district every Thursday to power wash and sweep the sidewalks, flush down the roadway and wipe out graffiti.

“While waning demand for office space has pushed institutional investors into retreat, local buyers with “patient capital” — those who are not expecting to make a quick return on their investments — are stepping in.”

Started the morning of with a broad coalition of residents, food access organizations, and farmers’ markets at rally and press conference in support of our resolution to save Market Match from state budget cuts. Market Match is a successful dollar-for-dollar matching program that helps low-income residents afford fresh produce at farmers’ markets.

New report: over 10,000 San Francisco households received rent relief totaling $61.2 million dollars through SF’s unprecedented local rent relief program. This shows what happens when we tax the ultra-rich to fund people’s basic needs. I’m incredibly proud of how our city came together to make this happen.

The inaugural Pokémon Spring Celebration Day was a huge success! It was terrific seeing fans of all ages spend time in the city's public libraries to make Pikachu ears, trade cards, color, and—of course—read about pokémon with other fans. Thanks to all the organizers for making this happen!

I’m thrilled that Bernie Sanders has joined our fight to bring transformational change to San Francisco. We’ve stood up to corporate interests: getting results for affordable housing, tenant protections, and a safe and thriving city. You elected me to fight for change, and we’ve delivered. With your help we’ll win this election for the people, not the powerful. Please donate to my re-election campaign https://action.dean2024.com/donate

It’s pretty simple. If you consistently side with the interests of big business and corporate profits over the interests of low-income and working class people, you aren’t progressive.

Prop C on the SF ballot is a giveaway to billionaires. It will result in no new housing and will slash taxes on the richest real estate investors. Vote no on Prop C.
