Our city has suffered from a tragic series of gun shootings: a Galileo high student shot while Breed partied in Chicago, a young girl in Crocker-Amazon with life-threatening wounds, and now 49ers first round draft pick Ricky Pearsall struck with gunfire during an attempted

I'm running for Mayor for my family & for families across San Francisco. Over the past 5 years, I’ve watched our beloved City crumble. I have a clear vision for a safer, cleaner, & more vibrant San Francisco. Join our campaign today: secure.actblue.com/donate/mark-fa…

We can't depend on the current administration to lead the way towards #equalpay, so it's up to cities/states to close the gender pay gap.

As Mayor, I will: - mandate performance-based contracts for all nonprofits - immediately audit our homelessness & community health & welfare budgets - hold corrupt actors accountable There's no excuse for this amount of corruption & waste to persist.
Why are so many S.F. nonprofits mired in scandal? Here’s a closer look at the troubled charities

I want to extend my heartfelt thanks to the voters, our supporters, our team, and our volunteers. While the election results weren’t what we’d hoped for, together we built a citywide movement fueled by our shared vision for a cleaner, safer, and more vibrant San Francisco. I

"Farrell has said he would clear the city of its large encampments within his first year in office." “We need to send a clear message that we will not tolerate people living in tents on our streets and make it as inconvenient as possible for them."
On S.F.’s homeless crisis, mayoral candidates all agree on this one thing

It’s not up for debate: Public safety has not been a true priority for Mayor Breed and she owes San Francisco an apology. Public safety has always been my top priority, and it always will be.

Proud to have @garrytan's endorsement. Garry is a biz + tech leader who was one of the first contributors to the Chesa Boudin recall, has been a leading voice for demanding better from our City government, & cares deeply about helping San Francisco live up to it's potential.

Anyone who knows Mayor Breed knows this damning story is 100% true. Her vindictive behavior kept formerly homeless seniors trapped for over a year—all because a union didn’t endorse her. It's a shocking abuse of power. San Francisco deserves better.
Mayor Breed’s critics say her obsession with loyalty has gone too far: ‘She sees enemies everywhere’

Fact: I’ve been out of office for over 6 years. Fact: Daniel Lurie, London Breed, & Aaron Peskin have spent those same 6 years propping up the nonprofit industrial complex—funneling money into organizations now under federal investigation. That's the tweet.

San Francisco has had enough of Mayor Breed's "throw spaghetti at the wall" approach to governing. I wonder how the soccer stadium to replace the Westfield mall is coming along? Enough of the ineffective leadership - join us: markfarrell.com sfexaminer.com/news/the-city/…

"Farrell’s specific proposals include: - A zero-tolerance approach for all crime - Clearing all tent encampments - Shifting from a housing-first to a shelter-first approach - Creating incentives for businesses that bring workers back downtown"

Actually Mayor Breed, public safety is about having more police officers because we lost over 600 officers on your watch.

The City always had the authority to remove tent encampments from our streets, but Mayor Breed has consistently failed in her ability to do so. As Mayor, I cleared all large tent encampments before Grants Pass, and I will do it again after Grants Pass.
Supreme Court strikes down homeless protections, giving cities broad power to address encampments
