As Mayor, I will use my experience to make San Francisco a place where small businesses can thrive

San Francisco lags behind other communities in providing a vital, vibrant and ecologically sustainable urban canopy, as well as open space in the city.

Historically, San Franciscans have not valued street trees as much as other communities have

During the 1990s, San Francisco lived through one of the most intense economic booms of its history

The 21st Century has begun as an era of uncertainty, with a heightened focus on security and public safety.

As Mayor of San Francisco, I will work hard to ensure that, in the event of natural or man-made disasters, San Franciscans are prepared and our City is protected

Be willing to make bold decisions and be willing to make glorious mistakes. Learn from your mistakes, but you've got to be willing to make them first.
