"bio": "• I write and edit stories about how Silicon Valley power and policies shape everyday life in California. I’m also passionate about making Bay Area history and culture more accessible to a broad public. • I’ve been a journalist for most of my life, starting in high school with The Franklin Press in Los Angeles, where I grew up. While earning my first degree in English at UC Berkeley, I got my start in public radio at KALX-FM. After completing a second degree in journalism at Cal, I landed my first professional job at Marketplace, then moved on to KPCC (now LAist), and then KQED, where I hosted The California Report for more than seven years. • My reporting has appeared on NPR, The World, WBUR’s \u003ci>Here & Now\u003c/i>, and the BBC. I also guest host for KQED’s \u003ci>Forum\u003c/i>, as well as the Commonwealth Club in San Francisco. • I speak periodically on media, democracy and technology issues, and do voiceover work for documentaries and educational video projects. • Outside of the studio, you'll find me hiking Bay Area trails and whipping up Insta-ready meals in my kitchen. • I do not accept gifts, money, or favors from anyone connected to my reporting, I don't pay people for information, and I do not support or donate to political causes. • I strive to treat the people I report on with fairness, honesty, and respect. I also recognize there are often multiple sides to a story and work to verify information through multiple sources and documentation. If I get something wrong, I correct it.",

Mandates requiring workplaces and federal agencies to honor a person’s preferred pronouns would also be overturned.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The federal government may also prohibit taxpayer funds from being used to subsidize gender-affirming health care, and could force facilities that receive federal funding such as public schools and prisons to separate people on the basis of biological sex in intimate spaces.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“These are sexes that are not changeable, and they are grounded in fundamental and incontrovertible reality,” the White House official said to reporters on Monday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside postID=news_12023122 hero='https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2025/01/250120-YouthClimateProtest-06-BL-1020x680.jpg']\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The basis of Trump’s order is unfounded, Mahogany argued. Defining sex as a biological binary of only male and female excludes not only transgender but also intersex people.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Gender has been something that has been defined differently between cultures throughout human history,” Mahogany said. “It’s really important to acknowledge that the Trump administration can say whatever it wants. It doesn’t necessarily change the realities that we are living every day.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Mahogany said they’re concerned about what could happen to transgender people who are barred from accessing gender-affirming care, and said it’s likely that rates of depression and suicidal ideation may go up. They also said that disregarding a person’s gender identity could leave transgender individuals vulnerable to sexual and physical violence.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>According to Mahogany, Trump’s executive order and the conservative rhetoric around sex and gender may also hurt people who are not transgender. Admonishments against the participation of transgender athletes in women’s sports, for example, have resulted in verbal and physical assaults on cisgender athletes who do not conform to gender expectations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“When they say things like we’re doing this to protect women or biological women, what we’re seeing is that the opposite is happening and that women are being negatively impacted by these policies,” Mahogany said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Moving forward, community organizations and leaders will have to work with the state and with local municipalities to secure protections for transgender people that may not be reflected at the federal level, Mahogany said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n",

Admonishments against the participation of transgender athletes in women’s sports, for example, have resulted in verbal and physical assaults on cisgender athletes who do not conform to gender expectations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“When they say things like we’re doing this to protect women or biological women, what we’re seeing is that the opposite is happening and that women are being negatively impacted by these policies,” Mahogany said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Moving forward, community organizations and leaders will have to work with the state and with local municipalities to secure protections for transgender people that may not be reflected at the federal level, Mahogany said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

It’s this kind of a mentality where the people who abide by the law — who pay the taxes — are the ones at fault.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While some attendees were lifelong Republicans, others said that their interest in Trump’s firebrand politics stemmed from a gradual political evolution.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_12023140\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 2000px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-12023140\" src=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2025/01/250120-InaugurationWatchParty-23.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2000\" height=\"1333\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2025/01/250120-InaugurationWatchParty-23.jpg 2000w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2025/01/250120-InaugurationWatchParty-23-800x533.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2025/01/250120-InaugurationWatchParty-23-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2025/01/250120-InaugurationWatchParty-23-160x107.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2025/01/250120-InaugurationWatchParty-23-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2025/01/250120-InaugurationWatchParty-23-1920x1280.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2000px) 100vw, 2000px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Carly Matthews (left) and Philip Wing (center) listen to the national anthem being sung by Christopher Macchio during a watch party at Harry’s Bar in San Francisco on Monday, Jan. 20, 2025, for the inauguration ceremony for President Donald Trump. \u003ccite>(Beth LaBerge/KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>“I never thought I would be at an event like this in my life,” said Carly Matthews. “I moved from the left to the right in a span of 18 months, and I got my citizenship so that I could vote in this election.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Matthews said reckless government spending and disrespect to law enforcement disturbed her, so she made an account on X — the once San Francisco-based social media platform formerly known as Twitter that Elon Musk bought and rebranded — and started watching full-length interviews with Donald Trump.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I call it ‘getting X-ucated,’” Matthews joked.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

We’re at Lake Merritt in Oakland. How am I feeling? I’m mostly concerned about the imminent Ice raids. I think a lot of things will be the same as they were, but just less covert than they were under Biden. But I think the egregiousness and cruelty of everything is just going to be more in everyone’s face under Trump.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cstrong>Antoine Mendoza \u003c/strong>[00:01:27] I mean, I know my opinion is that he’s a convicted felon and I’m about to be in office. But I guess it’s first for everything. My name is Antoine Mendoza, we’re in downtown Oakland, near Lake Merritt. Well, I hope you don’t pack my life, but I guess from what I heard, you supposed to cut down a lot of the programs that help the homeless. So I hope that doesn’t happen. But if it does, I guess I gotta adjust to it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cstrong>Nate Day \u003c/strong>[00:01:51] Hi, my name is Nate Day. California’s been blue, and so it’s like it doesn’t really affect me being a citizen in California. And it’s a mindset thing, too. I can’t really allow his decisionmaking, whatever – I still got to make choices. So we all got to stand strong, stand for what we believe in. And not that much power to somebody that doesn’t really affect you, you know what I’m saying, I believe that it’s going to be the same.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cstrong>Daniel Leone \u003c/strong>[00:02:18] I realize that he’s a controversial figure, but I feel like a lot of things did work pretty well during his former presidency. My name is Daniel Boone. You know, businesses seem to do well. Maybe a better tax system. I don’t have as much of a negative feeling towards him it as much as most people seem to do around around here especially.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cstrong>Luna Osleger-Montañez \u003c/strong>[00:02:50] He blamed immigrants. He blamed women and he blames trans children, among others. And we know that these are lies. My name is Luna. I’m an organizer at the Answer Coalition today. The reason that we’re all here is because there is a real dire need for all sectors of society to unite and fight back against the extreme right billionaire agenda that Trump and his administration represents. Because it’s not immigrants or Palestinian people or women who are our enemy. In fact, it is the billionaires, not just Trump the person that is the class of people who are exploiting and dividing us for their benefit. And what we know as well is that no one is coming to save us.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cstrong>Azul Dahlstrom-Eckman \u003c/strong>[00:03:40] Okay. Name and title, please.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cstrong>Sanika Mahajan \u003c/strong>[00:03:42] Yeah. Sanika Mahajan. I’m the director of Community Engagement organizing at Mission Action. There’s not a lot we can do as individuals, and you can see that that’s what this ruling class right wing attack is meant to do, is meant to keep us fearful, you know, staying in our own homes, not able to go out and be together and organize. So today is just a kind of a message. We’re sending a message. We’re saying we’re not going to back down. We’re not fearful. We’re going to come together in the streets today. But also, every time they try to attack immigrants, every time they try to attack our queer communities, reproductive rights, our education for.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cstrong>Jeff Burns \u003c/strong>[00:04:19] Donald Trump got over 6 million votes in this state and he flipped, you know, a ton of counties. Jeff Berns, chairman of the Contra Costa County Republican Party. I feel like there’s a little bit of momentum change here in the state in terms of from a policy perspective, we still need to overcome as Republicans in the state a little bit of the branding issue. But I’m excited to see what the first two years of the Trump term brings and what that brings for California.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cstrong>Doris Gentry \u003c/strong>[00:04:56] I wore my Trump shirt and I was at San Francisco having lunch. And I looked around the room and I saw two other people with Trump shirt on. I have never seen that before. It has totally changed and people are more open. Doris Gentry and I am currently the county chair of the Napa County Republican Central Committee. What changed was the economy. The economy shoved mommies and and people at home. Into the Republican Party, into the awareness that what we have been doing ain’t working. Mommies go into the grocery store and can no longer buy a steak. They’re lucky to buy a ticket. I can sit here and talk to you for an hour about my reasons. You want to see a man like that installed as our next president? He is wise. He is vicious. He is. Is really hitting the ground running. He’s working to buy Greenland, working to negotiate, to take over Canada, working to rename the Gulf of Mexico, the Gulf of America. I mean, he has really hit the ground without a box thinking. And it’s very exciting to be there in person.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cstrong>Jeff Burns \u003c/strong>[00:06:26] I’m not some hardened ideologue, right? I live in a, you know, in a blue area and have plenty of friends who are Republicans and plenty of friends who are not. And so I to me, I’m looking forward just to a return to common sense. And, you know, common sense doesn’t necessarily mean the norms by which everybody thinks politics should operate out of DC. I mean, just common sense from human beings and and the way we run the government. So I’m excited to see, you know, what what Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy have with those. I’m excited to see some of these cabinet picks that maybe are a little unconventional and see what they do to shake up DC. I’m excited to see a return to sane economic policies and just just common sense policies across the board.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cstrong>Alexis Madrigal \u003c/strong>[00:07:33] We’ve got the chair of the State Assembly’s Health committee. Assembly member Mia Bonta. Welcome.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cstrong>Asm. Mia Bonta \u003c/strong>[00:07:38] Thanks so much. It’s a pleasure to be here. It’s not lost on me that in 2025, abortion was mentioned 147 times, and the first mention of it was essentially to declare that abortion care is not health care. We’ve ensconced abortion as a right within our Constitution. We’ve passed over 13 different pieces of legislation in the last legislative cycle alone related to privacy access, making sure that we are protecting the pipeline of health care workers. So what can California do? We can continue where we have been going for a long time.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cstrong>Alexis Madrigal \u003c/strong>[00:08:18] And we’ve got Mark Peterson, professor of public policy, political science, health policy and management and law. It’s a lot of things to be a professor of Mark at UCLA, also a senior fellow at the UCLA Center for Health Policy Research. Welcome, Mark.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cstrong>Mark Peterson \u003c/strong>[00:08:30] Thank you. It’s good to be here. We know that President Trump has said very explicitly that in his administration, gender equity and notions of supporting transgender care, for instance, are simply off the table. The other is the administration coming in has made a very big case about how they’re going to go after anyone who has D-I programs, diversity, equity and inclusion programs. Well, that’s the University of California. It’s UCLA. And there’s a lot of federal funding that comes in to the research enterprise on the health care side. And we are an institution that uses DEI procedures.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cstrong>Rachael Myrow \u003c/strong>[00:09:07] Why don’t we go next to Colin in San Francisco. Hi, Colin. Thank you for joining us.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cstrong>Colin \u003c/strong>[00:09:14] Good morning. My thoughts are about Debrina Kawam, who is identified as the woman who was burned alive on the New York subway by a Guatemalan migrant who had already been ordered deported from the United States. Doesn’t the public have a right to be safe from those people? Doesn’t seem to me that Trump was completely lying when he said that other countries are emptying their mental institutions and sending their mentally ill offenders here to be taken care of.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cstrong>Kate Munger \u003c/strong>[00:09:57] My name is Kate Munger. 25 years ago, I started the Threshold Choir, which is formed of choral singers who are called to sing at the bedsides of people who are dying or struggling. And for me, that has included peace marches and protests of various kinds. And eight years ago I was appalled and called a sitting in the same place. We’re going to sing on Saturday the 18th to send prayers, basically songs to inspire and address. More of this spiritual aspects rather than the political aspects of where we are right now.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cstrong>Kate Munger \u003c/strong>[00:11:01] So one of the main songs we’ll be singing is When I wrote Words by Ram Dass. We are all just walking each other well. I’ll also be singing a quote from Rumi that goes, If since light is in your heart, you will find your way home. The songs are uplifting, positive, are not going to call any names, but are not going to stand for. Misbehavior in our political system. I’m desperately disappointed that this is where we are, and yet I’m committed to using my voice and the voices that I gather in in resistance in a way that allows us to build. I’m 75 years old, and I’ve seen a lot of different things in my life. And I know that slamming into people with my beliefs is not going to change their beliefs. And I believe that as singing creatures, singing is one of the best ways I know to draw people to what I’m thinking, what I believe, what I hope will happen. So I consider it an invitation.\u003c/p>\n\n",

I don’t have as much of a negative feeling towards him it as much as most people seem to do around around here especially.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cstrong>Luna Osleger-Montañez \u003c/strong>[00:02:50] He blamed immigrants. He blamed women and he blames trans children, among others. And we know that these are lies. My name is Luna. I’m an organizer at the Answer Coalition today. The reason that we’re all here is because there is a real dire need for all sectors of society to unite and fight back against the extreme right billionaire agenda that Trump and his administration represents. Because it’s not immigrants or Palestinian people or women who are our enemy. In fact, it is the billionaires, not just Trump the person that is the class of people who are exploiting and dividing us for their benefit. And what we know as well is that no one is coming to save us.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cstrong>Azul Dahlstrom-Eckman \u003c/strong>[00:03:40] Okay. Name and title, please.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cstrong>Sanika Mahajan \u003c/strong>[00:03:42] Yeah. Sanika Mahajan. I’m the director of Community Engagement organizing at Mission Action. There’s not a lot we can do as individuals, and you can see that that’s what this ruling class right wing attack is meant to do, is meant to keep us fearful, you know, staying in our own homes, not able to go out and be together and organize. So today is just a kind of a message. We’re sending a message. We’re saying we’re not going to back down. We’re not fearful. We’re going to come together in the streets today. But also, every time they try to attack immigrants, every time they try to attack our queer communities, reproductive rights, our education for.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cstrong>Jeff Burns \u003c/strong>[00:04:19] Donald Trump got over 6 million votes in this state and he flipped, you know, a ton of counties. Jeff Berns, chairman of the Contra Costa County Republican Party. I feel like there’s a little bit of momentum change here in the state in terms of from a policy perspective, we still need to overcome as Republicans in the state a little bit of the branding issue. But I’m excited to see what the first two years of the Trump term brings and what that brings for California.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cstrong>Doris Gentry \u003c/strong>[00:04:56] I wore my Trump shirt and I was at San Francisco having lunch. And I looked around the room and I saw two other people with Trump shirt on. I have never seen that before. It has totally changed and people are more open. Doris Gentry and I am currently the county chair of the Napa County Republican Central Committee. What changed was the economy. The economy shoved mommies and and people at home. Into the Republican Party, into the awareness that what we have been doing ain’t working. Mommies go into the grocery store and can no longer buy a steak. They’re lucky to buy a ticket. I can sit here and talk to you for an hour about my reasons. You want to see a man like that installed as our next president? He is wise. He is vicious. He is. Is really hitting the ground running. He’s working to buy Greenland, working to negotiate, to take over Canada, working to rename the Gulf of Mexico, the Gulf of America. I mean, he has really hit the ground without a box thinking. And it’s very exciting to be there in person.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cstrong>Jeff Burns \u003c/strong>[00:06:26] I’m not some hardened ideologue, right? I live in a, you know, in a blue area and have plenty of friends who are Republicans and plenty of friends who are not. And so I to me, I’m looking forward just to a return to common sense. And, you know, common sense doesn’t necessarily mean the norms by which everybody thinks politics should operate out of DC. I mean, just common sense from human beings and and the way we run the government. So I’m excited to see, you know, what what Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy have with those. I’m excited to see some of these cabinet picks that maybe are a little unconventional and see what they do to shake up DC. I’m excited to see a return to sane economic policies and just just common sense policies across the board.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cstrong>Alexis Madrigal \u003c/strong>[00:07:33] We’ve got the chair of the State Assembly’s Health committee. Assembly member Mia Bonta. Welcome.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cstrong>Asm. Mia Bonta \u003c/strong>[00:07:38] Thanks so much. It’s a pleasure to be here. It’s not lost on me that in 2025, abortion was mentioned 147 times, and the first mention of it was essentially to declare that abortion care is not health care. We’ve ensconced abortion as a right within our Constitution. We’ve passed over 13 different pieces of legislation in the last legislative cycle alone related to privacy access, making sure that we are protecting the pipeline of health care workers. So what can California do? We can continue where we have been going for a long time.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cstrong>Alexis Madrigal \u003c/strong>[00:08:18] And we’ve got Mark Peterson, professor of public policy, political science, health policy and management and law. It’s a lot of things to be a professor of Mark at UCLA, also a senior fellow at the UCLA Center for Health Policy Research. Welcome, Mark.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cstrong>Mark Peterson \u003c/strong>[00:08:30] Thank you. It’s good to be here. We know that President Trump has said very explicitly that in his administration, gender equity and notions of supporting transgender care, for instance, are simply off the table. The other is the administration coming in has made a very big case about how they’re going to go after anyone who has D-I programs, diversity, equity and inclusion programs. Well, that’s the University of California. It’s UCLA. And there’s a lot of federal funding that comes in to the research enterprise on the health care side. And we are an institution that uses DEI procedures.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cstrong>Rachael Myrow \u003c/strong>[00:09:07] Why don’t we go next to Colin in San Francisco. Hi, Colin. Thank you for joining us.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cstrong>Colin \u003c/strong>[00:09:14] Good morning. My thoughts are about Debrina Kawam, who is identified as the woman who was burned alive on the New York subway by a Guatemalan migrant who had already been ordered deported from the United States. Doesn’t the public have a right to be safe from those people? Doesn’t seem to me that Trump was completely lying when he said that other countries are emptying their mental institutions and sending their mentally ill offenders here to be taken care of.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cstrong>Kate Munger \u003c/strong>[00:09:57] My name is Kate Munger. 25 years ago, I started the Threshold Choir, which is formed of choral singers who are called to sing at the bedsides of people who are dying or struggling. And for me, that has included peace marches and protests of various kinds. And eight years ago I was appalled and called a sitting in the same place. We’re going to sing on Saturday the 18th to send prayers, basically songs to inspire and address. More of this spiritual aspects rather than the political aspects of where we are right now.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

We are all just walking each other well. I’ll also be singing a quote from Rumi that goes, If since light is in your heart, you will find your way home. The songs are uplifting, positive, are not going to call any names, but are not going to stand for. Misbehavior in our political system. I’m desperately disappointed that this is where we are, and yet I’m committed to using my voice and the voices that I gather in in resistance in a way that allows us to build. I’m 75 years old, and I’ve seen a lot of different things in my life. And I know that slamming into people with my beliefs is not going to change their beliefs. And I believe that as singing creatures, singing is one of the best ways I know to draw people to what I’m thinking, what I believe, what I hope will happen. So I consider it an invitation.\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

It’s going to be really an epic experience,” Burns said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Like Gentry, Burns said this election, it felt more acceptable to be a Trump supporter in the Bay Area, typically a Democratic stronghold.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“ You’d get more people saying, ‘Hey, I didn’t want to say anything, but I agree,’ and ‘Thank you for saying something,’” Burns said. “Whereas before, there was a culture of ‘you have to stay completely underground.’”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Across all nine Bay Area counties, a \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/politics/elections/2024/12/california-election-results-trump-vote-2024/\">higher percentage of voters\u003c/a> cast their ballot for Donald Trump this election compared with last time Trump ran in 2020. The changes in the Bay Area between 2020 and 2024 are small — between a 1% and 4% increase in each county.

The changes in the Bay Area between 2020 and 2024 are small — between a 1% and 4% increase in each county.

City leaders, including those in Washington, D.C., like Speaker Emerita Nancy Pelosi, rallied alongside Colfax to get the hospital, which has since been recertified, back on track.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Dr. Colfax is an extraordinary public health leader,” Pelosi said in a statement. “From our city’s COVID response, to saving Laguna Honda hospital, to expanding primary care and treatment for substance use disorders, Dr. Colfax has led with a data driven, community-centered focus that benefits all San Franciscans.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Despite those efforts, San Franciscans continued to see tragedy in their streets stemming from the overdose epidemic, though there were roughly \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/12018663/san-francisco-overdose-deaths-up-in-november-but-still-below-peak-last-year\">20% fewer overdose deaths last year than in 2023\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In November, voters elected Lurie after he campaigned on a message to bring change and accountability to City Hall. Now in office, Lurie has \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/12020848/now-sf-mayor-lurie-unveils-emergency-plans-drug-homelessness-crises\">started releasing plans\u003c/a> for how the city can more quickly set up emergency shelters and behavioral health beds.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So far, that’s involved asking the Board of Supervisors to \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/12021879/sf-mayor-lurie-launches-1st-legislative-push-fentanyl-emergency-response\">remove certain bureaucratic requirements\u003c/a> to speed up city contracts and permitting, and to waive rules around accepting private donations for services directly responding to overdoses, drug dealing and homelessness.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We have accomplished much in the past six years, and there is no doubt that the dedicated, hard-working and compassionate staff at DPH will continue to deliver for San Francisco,” Colfax said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",
