San Francisco Mayor Pushes Controversial Welfare Drug Test Proposal
News summary

Mayor London Breed is advocating for Proposition F which would require single adults on or applying for welfare to be screened for illegal drug use before receiving payments. The measure would also grant police more crime-fighting powers, such as the use of drones and surveillance cameras. Breed argues that the city needs to do something more aggressive to address the drug problem, but opponents say these measures are out of step with San Francisco's support for privacy and civil liberties and will only hurt marginalized communities. The city is struggling with homelessness, drugs, and property crime, and Breed's approach to these issues is a focal point in her re-election campaign.
