Making people kiss the ring is not a strong indicator of progressive values. Neighborhood bullies suck, regardless of their politics

Ever ready to provide fresh proof of how dumb and full of shit he is.

Go, Bilal!

Great short video by TransLink explaining “the empty bus lane myth”

Unlike SFPD which doesn’t prioritize traffic enforcement, speed cameras are on the job 24/7. With appropriate privacy safeguards, these cameras can be an effective approach to making SF streets safer

Our own Ruth Ferguson is in the @sfchronicle.com today with a powerful piece on why we need to rezone Bernal Heights! Read it and share it: www.sfchronicle.com/opinion/open...

Well, this seems bad.

“Defend the District” protest and Go-Go concert against Trump’s takeover at 14th and U St:

Disgusting

Newsom is strutting, but make no mistake: This is the result of the unflagging work of @scottwiener.bsky.social. Bravo!

This takes less than a minute, and it will affect the next few decades of CA housing

ICE agents in tactical gear chase down and tackle a U.S. citizen in L.A. After realizing he’s American, they just slink away. Their only explanation: “Why were you running?” Probably because two masked men with guns were trying to snatch him.

Happy to see SF Democrats standing up for affordable housing! La Maravilla should include as many units as possible. (Scroll to ~2h for the discussion at last night's DCCC meeting in Visitacion Valley)

They’re not sending their best…

Car brain is a chronic disease

Has not endorsed a single housing bill yet demands communities do the impossible and eliminate the fruits of his inaction.

Stephen A. Smith has the humbling realization that he is only the second dumbest blowhard in the conversation

Thank you, @sfchronicle.com for featuring D9 Neighbors on the front page of the paper, online, and in your daily newsletter today! www.sfchronicle.com/sf/article/n...

Affordability, equity, justice. Bernal must do its part, and @d9neighbors.bsky.social is on the case! www.sfchronicle.com/sf/article/n...

What a great group of neighbors! Thanks to all who joined us on today's Forbidden Housing tour. (Here's the group, looking good in front of the Art Deco El Capistrano Apartments in the Mission, an example of the type of housing that couldn't be built under today's rules!)

The car-brain required to believe that parking is the biggest issue facing low-income renters in California is quite a thing to behold.

Senator Wiener’s SB79 would streamline housing along major transit corridors and allow transit agencies to develop their properties for housing and to generate revenue to support their operations. Housing committee chair Wahab is..skeptical. (And wrong)

Thank you to the amazing housing advocates who came from around the state to support our legislation to allow more housing near high quality public transit (SB 79). More housing density near transit is good for housing affordability, good for transit ridership & good for climate action. Go team!

Powerful op-ed in the @sfchronicle.com today from D9 Neighbors member Caroline McCormack! "I live in Bernal Heights. Mayor Lurie, please upzone my neighborhood." www.sfchronicle.com/opinion/open...

Critics of SB 79, Scott Wiener’s bill to legalize apartments near public transit, decry the high price of the “luxury” homes that would be allowed under the law. They argue that we should build *affordable* housing instead of market rate. This common argument deserves an answer.

Today I and some of my neighbors asked the Planning Commission to help us get more neighbors!

SF’s 1978 downzoning created this crisis, and Robert Gonzalez called it.

A lot of we like about San Francisco couldn’t be built today due to overly restrictive planning and zoning…

Along with fellow advocates, we are frustrated by the SFMTA revisiting Valencia Street’s approved design and reintroducing left turns along the corridor at the Mayor’s urging. This is unsafe and will be ineffective in improving traffic flow. See our joint statement: sfbike.org/news/open-le...

Join D9 Neighbors for Housing for a tour of the DignityMoves tiny-home village on Sat., 3/8. Space is limited - RSVP required. We'll debrief over lunch afterward for those who are interested. actionnetwork.org/events/tour-...

I introduced CEQA legislation (SB 607) to avoid CEQA being used to stop new housing & make other smart changes to aspects of CEQA that turn it into a process nightmare that doesn’t always help the environment. SB 607 will help create abundance of the things that make life better & more affordable:🧵

Perhaps this dead white guy’s thoughts will have some weight for the folks who think only white guys’ thoughts are worth considering

Learned so much from these smart folks committed to housing our vulnerable neighbors!
