🍕For 40 years, Woodstock’s Pizza SDSU has been part of what makes the College Area so vibrant and welcoming.

Last night, we presented a certificate to celebrate their commitment to serving students, families, and neighbors who make this community what it is.

Cheers to the next 40!

Grateful to the incredible volunteers, Employee Rights Center, and San Diego Food Bank for helping nourish our neighbors in City Heights this morning. These are tough times for many, but together, we can make sure families have what they need.

Let’s keep showing up for each other. 💙

Today, we pause to honor and thank our veterans and service members. In addition to honoring them with words, let’s honor them with action. That means ensuring they have access to affordable housing, basic and emergency services for those experiencing homelessness, and mental health resources.

SD Unified opens safe parking at Central Elementary for 40 homeless families—addressing a crisis affecting 7,500 district students.

The project took 2 years of fighting funding chaos. @seanelorivera.bsky.social, who lived in his car during law school, led push.

Big News: Today, the Rules Committee voted 3–1 to advance our Vacation Home Operation ballot proposal — a common-sense proposal to address fairness in the housing market, keep homes available for San Diegans, and ensure out-of-state investors and full-time vacation rentals pay their fair share.

✅ PASSED: Today, the San Diego City Council unanimously adopted the Due Process and Safety Ordinance — a landmark policy that makes clear: San Diego will not be a staging ground for unlawful, discriminatory federal enforcement.
October 21, 2025 at 5:24 AM
Thousands showed up to No Kings to say NO to: fascism, fear, and the stripping of our rights. It’s long overdue we turn protest into policy.

This Monday, Council will vote on our Due Process & Safety Ordinance. A local policy to defend our rights, reject federal overreach, and protect San Diegans.

Loved also seeing @seanelorivera.bsky.social in the NBC coverage of the downtown protests. Councilman Elo-Rivera is one of our best leaders now. I spoke to lots of people in my neighborhood today, to tell their councilmember to vote yes on the Due Process and Public Safety ordinance! 🙏

Last month, leaders from across the county stood united to commit to action to protect San Diego from the federal government’s ongoing assault.

Since then, @ericjoyce760.bsky.social in Oceanside & Corinna Contreras in Vista have brought proposals forward in their cities. Now, it’s San Diego’s turn.

This morning, we joined UNAC/UHCP healthcare workers on the picket line to stand in solidarity with the work they do everyday.

Their fight isn’t just for themselves — it’s for patients, families, and working people everywhere.

We see you, we stand with you, and we’ve got your back.

Today, we recognize #IndigenousPeoplesDay. A day we commemorate the histories and significant contributions of Indigenous Peoples. We especially want to uplift the Kumeyaay Nation whose land we reside on. Today, we celebrate resistance and not conquest.
