With Alan Wong as the supervisor, District 4 will have that voice,” Lurie said at the press conference on Monday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Lurie said he chose Alacaraz because of her small business background and her ability to bring a fresh perspective to City Hall. While her business decisions that came to light ultimately led to her swift downfall, she had no government or community organizing experience.[aside postID=news_12064341 hero='https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2025/11/20251106_SFD4Supervisor_GC-3_qed.jpg']But Alcaraz also vowed to support Lurie’s controversial Family Zoning Plan, which could bring thousands of new homes to the quiet, residential Sunset and has been a point of friction among residents who want to see more capacity for housing versus those who say the plan will invite real estate speculation and displace low-income families.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In Wong, Lurie selected a far more experienced candidate, but also one who could potentially challenge some of Lurie’s more moderate policies.

Sam Liccardo said Monday while standing in front of a new building for formerly homeless and lower-income families in the Little Saigon district. “This strategy by the Trump administration amounts to cutting one end of the fabric and stapling it onto the other and calling it one big, beautiful blanket.

shelter for the past year with Lucius, and before that, the couple spent time living on the streets, in their car, and in motels while Alvarido was pregnant.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There were a lot of

infamously dubbed The Jungle, where hundreds of people lived in rough conditions, exemplifying the region’s harsh wealth gaps and intense unaffordability.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While The Charles was built using a substantial mix of funding from a local homelessness tax measure, state and city grants and credits, officials say the money to support rental subsidies for tenants and building operations is largely paid for by the federal funding that is being redirected.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The move hangs a cloud of uncertainty around the future of existing housing projects like The Charles, and could prevent other similar projects in the region from opening.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development, headed by Secretary Scott Turner, issued new guidelines earlier this

supportive services for substance abuse and mental health.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In Santa Clara and San Mateo counties, that could amount to as much as a cumulative $35 million loss annually, amid a potential $100 million hit across the entire Bay Area.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Turner, in a statement, called the program a “Biden-era slush fund that fueled the homelessness crisis,” and said the change “restores accountability to homelessness programs and promotes self-sufficiency among vulnerable Americans.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_12065392\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"

"content": "\u003cp>President \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/tag/donald-trump\">Donald Trump\u003c/a>’s One Big Beautiful Bill Act is expected to cut hundreds of millions of dollars annually from \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/tag/san-francisco\">San Francisco\u003c/a>’s budget, with up to 50,000 people potentially losing access to public benefits.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That’s according to a new report from the San Francisco Department of Public Health and Human Services, which estimates the federal budget could cost the city up to $400 million annually once fully implemented in 2038.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Our economy is recovering, and we made real progress eliminating hundreds of millions of dollars every year from our structural deficit,” Mayor Daniel Lurie said in a statement. “But these changes at the state and federal level represent a real threat to San Francisco, to our residents and to our budget.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Signed into law on July 4, the Big Beautiful Bill, as it’s officially known, strips federal funding for a variety of public healthcare programs and the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, while cutting taxes for the wealthiest Americans by tens of thousands of dollars.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Department of Public Health stands to lose $315 million in 2027–28 alone, and the city’s Department of Human Services, which administers CalFresh, the state’s food stamp program, estimates it will lose $81 million annually. Around 21,000 San Franciscans could lose food benefits by 2027 if they do not have an income, largely due to newly imposed work requirements.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>About 112,000 San Franciscans receive food assistance through CalFresh, according to the report.[aside postID=news_12064551 hero='https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2025/11/GettyImages-1352132356-2000x1333.jpg']“The strict work and paperwork requirements are really about layering on a whole lot of red tape,” said Tanis Crosby, executive director of the San Francisco-Marin Food Bank, adding that CalFresh and other SNAP programs already have income limits and work requirements. “This will all make a big administrative entanglement and create more burden and disinventive for people who need and deserve benefits to even apply.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Between 25,000 and 50,000 San Franciscans are also projected to lose access to Medi-Cal, the report shows. Undocumented residents are particularly vulnerable to the cuts, and starting in January, Medi-Cal recipients will have more hurdles to jump through for benefits, including verifying their eligibility every six months rather than once per year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The city is already charting out mitigation strategies, including keeping residents enrolled in benefits programs. It is also looking to expand programs like Healthy San Francisco, a city program that provides health coverage for residents who are not eligible for Medi-Cal and Medicare.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Despite these actions, the City and County will face difficult financial decisions, and we will need to prioritize programs, services and staffing,” the report reads.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The dramatic projections come after the city earlier this year cut millions from its own budget in order to balance an $800 million shortfall.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We are really concerned about what this means for people who are just struggling to make ends meet,” Crosby said. “We have among the highest rates of food insecurity … There is a lot of opportunity for bold change that we can make within our state.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Lurie’s budget, passed earlier this year, anticipated federal cuts and included $400 million in reserves to help combat future shortfalls. The city is now preparing to start developing its next annual budget.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Over the next several months, I will work with the Board of Supervisors, community leaders, and residents across the city to ensure we take care of San Franciscans and deliver another responsible budget that supports our residents and strengthens our recovery,” Lurie said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n",

Moth storytellers stand alone, under a spotlight, with only a microphone and a roomful of strangers. The storyteller and the audience embark on a high-wire act of shared experience which is both terrifying and exhilarating. Since 2008, The Moth podcast has featured many of our favorite stories told live on Moth stages around the country. For information on all of our programs and live events, visit themoth.org.",
