@CandiCdeBacaD9 I'm finding fewer and fewer reasons to believe in electoral politics, but the way you kept everyone engaged, broke down the city's power imbalances, and guided everyone through our legislative process is the most encouraging thing I've seen in a really long time. Thank you.

Not a single complaint about Safe Outdoor Spaces (on private space)--not one. In fact, only converted believers in this option and CW Sawyer is voting AGAINST the contract for the only people who have stepped up to address citywide camping in public spaces. I can't make this up.
