Your Supervisor Matt Dorsey really went there

Okay so, your Supervisor Matt Dorsey from District 6, which is basically SoMa and Tenderloin, hella central, just dropped a bill that's got everyone talking. He's proposing a law that would let landlords evict tenants for drug use, even just possession, in common areas. And here’s the wild part: Dorsey said himself that if this law existed when he was struggling with addiction, he'd have deserved to be evicted. Like, wow. That's a strong statement from someone holding public office.

This is a big deal in a city that’s already wrestling with the housing crisis. We’ve got encampments everywhere, people getting pushed out, and now this. The legislation, which was announced Thursday, April 9th, really targets public drug use, but the implications for folks in precarious housing situations are huge.

* Supervisor Dorsey's proposed legislation allows evictions for drug use/possession in common areas.

* He publicly stated he would have deserved eviction under his own bill during his past struggles.

* The bill was announced Thursday, April 9th, and impacts District 6 residents and beyond.

What this means for the Mission District, where a shooting just went down Friday night and drug use is visible, is intense. This bill could change a lot about how we handle addiction and housing in the City. Keep an eye on the Board of Supervisors to see how this one moves forward.

That's the City, fam — fog, hills, and all.
