The signing of SB 1218 is a victory for our neighbors who have lived with the impacts of illegal dumping for too long. Now cities have another tool to hold those who trash our communities accountable.

Security corporations are offering a measly wage increase for workers, while they rake in billions. I stand with SEIU-USWW security officers’ demands for living wages, better training, better benefits and a workplace free from unfair labor practices. Whatever it takes.

I joined Assemblymember Matt Haney, Senator Scott Wiener, SF Mayor Daniel Lurie, and SF City Attorney David Chiu to advocate for AB 1294 which I coauthored. If signed by the Governor, this will deliver needed affordable workforce housing to Bay Area workers and residents.
