While we figure out a Plan B for the party, we encourage everyone to join us and the League of Pissed Off Voters at Gavin's "townhall" meeting next Monday! What? You didn't hear about it? We're not surprised.
WHEN: Monday, March 26th 6:00pm
WHERE: Cesar Chavez Elementary School, 825 Shotwell at 22nd St
WHAT: Gavin Newsom's latest "townhall" meeting
Gavin Newsom is holding a "townhall" meeting in the Mission, but he forgot to tell the town about it!
We are shocked and disappointed (but not very surprised) that the Mayor has made no effort to publicize his "townhall" meeting at
We are also unaware of any outreach to any community groups in the
In the Mayor's "townhall" meeting in the Richmond, he hand picked all of the questions asked, he failed to allow any member of the public to speak, and he deferred to his cronies to answer virtually all of the questions. Combined with his refusal to meet with the Board of Supervisors like the voters asked him to, this demonstrates that Gavin is afraid to face unscripted questions or engage with those who disagree with him.
Gavin Newsom promised us that he was "committed to restoring (
We urge the Mayor to allow an independent moderator to run his "townhall" meetings, and to listen to the voters and meet with the Board of Supervisors. And we encourage members of the public to attend this "townhall" meeting and demand that their voices be heard.
Here are some questions we'd like answered:
- Why is MUNI's on-time rate been stuck at 70?

- Why haven't you done anything to reform the SFPD?
- Why won't you meet with the Board of Supervisors?
- Why are your friends at the Golden Gate Restaurant Association suing to block Supervisor Ammiano's universal health care plan?

THAT LAST LINE THERE--!"blocking Tom Ammiano's universal health care plan": Isn't the GOLDEN GATE RESTAURANT ASSOCIATION the same group that spent an inordinate sum of money to coat the city with anti DALY signs?
How DOES gavin get away with:
a)taking the photo op for AMMIANO's WORK (universal health care was AMMIANOS IDEA!)
and
b) at the SAME TIME have the audacity to "keep friends" with those who are entirely ANTI public-universal health care/workers' rights?
What in the @*$^@$$$$$$@@#&$&@!!! is $$$ *!@#%##!!! GOING ON?
This "town hall" has not been promoted in the community at all! I live right next door to Cesar Chavez Elementary, and there has been absolutely no notice about it. I was only tipped off when I saw workers cleaning up graffiti who said "the mayor will be here on Monday" when I walked by. I too searched in vain for information on the web and found nothing. I think it is clear that Mayor Newsom doensn't want any actual residents of the Mission District at this event.
