🏘 We need homes for families, not luxury towers that sit empty. That's why we're voting #Yeson5 this November.

✅ If passed, Prop 5 would make it easier for our communities to upgrade roads, bridges and utilties that we need to thrive!

#Repost from @couragecainst: 🗳️ Ballot initiatives give California citizens the ability to propose new statewide and local laws or repeal existing laws without going through the California State Legislature or the Governor.

[San Francisco Rising @SF_Rising]

Yesterday's homeless encampment sweeps were cruel, inhumane, and pointless. Do Mayor @LondonBreed and @GavinNewsom not know how homelessness works? People will continue to be unhoused until rent is more affordable.
