Opinion: Drug testing welfare recipients would only add to San Francisco’s homeless ranks

Mayor London Breed’s Proposition F would make it harder to treat addiction and strain already thin health care resources.

San Francisco’s count of homeless people was so confusing this year that the city did recounts across four different areas.

One-third of the nation’s unhoused veterans are in California. A 2024 ballot measure would provide new mental health funding.

In anticipation of a sweep Thursday, 30 RVs briefly occupied a locked San Francisco Zoo parking lot before being removed by police.

Supervisors look likely to approve Mayor Breed’s $25M police overtime request and will mull the city’s shelter plans.
