m Updated the point about candidates unseating incumbent supervisors. Made clerical and clarifying changes to some language. Added detail about the Supervisors' vote to select Mark Farrell as interim Mayor.
Created a public safety subheading under legislative record and populated with items found in local news reports and on San Francisco's official legislation page. Can do the same for other policy topics, as this section needs much expansion.

Signature

London Nicole Breed (born August 11, 1974) is an American politician from California who is the 45th and current mayor of the City and County of San Francisco. She formerly served as supervisor for District 5, and was president of the Board of Supervisors from 2015 to 2018.

Raised in poverty in the Western Addition, Breed worked in government after college. She was elected to the Board of Supervisors in 2013 and elected its president in 2015. As president of the Board, Breed, according to the city charter, became the acting mayor of San Francisco following the death of Mayor Ed Lee. She served in this role from December 12, 2017 to January 23, 2018.

Breed was the winning candidate in the San Francisco mayoral special election held on June 5, 2018. Breed is the first black woman and second woman overall to be elected mayor of San Francisco.[1] She was sworn in as mayor on July 11, 2018.[2][3][4]

Early life and education

Born in San Francisco,[5] Breed was raised by her grandmother in Plaza East public housing in the Western Addition neighborhood of the city.[6] Breed later wrote of her childhood in San Francisco: "[F]ive of us liv[ed] on $900 per month. 'Recycling' meant drinking out of old mayonnaise jars. Violence was never far away. And once a week, we took Grandma's pushcart to the community room to collect government-issued groceries."[7] Her younger sister died of a drug overdose and her brother is in prison.[8]

Breed graduated with honors from Galileo High School.[9] Breed earned a bachelor's degree from the University of California, Davis in 1997 and a master's degree in public administration from the University of San Francisco in 2012.[10]

Career

Breed worked as an intern in the Office of Housing and Neighborhood Services for Mayor Willie Brown.[8] In 2002, Breed became the executive director of the African American Art & Culture Complex,[11] where she raised over $2.5 million to renovate the complex's 34,000 square foot space, including an art gallery, theater space, and a recording studio.[6] Breed was named to the San Francisco Redevelopment Agency Commission in 2004. In 2010, Mayor Gavin Newsom appointed her to the San Francisco Fire Commission.[6]

In November 2012, Breed was elected to the District 5 supervisor seat after she defeated incumbent Christina Olague, who had been appointed to the seat that year by Mayor Ed Lee after Supervisor Ross Mirkarimi was elected sheriff. Following five rounds of ranked-choice voting allocations, Breed won by over 12 points, marking the first time in San Francisco history that a challenger unseated a district supervisor.[12] (The feat has occurred twice since, with Aaron Peskin unseating Supervisor Julie Christensen in 2015 to reclaim his District 3 seat,[13] and Rafael Mandelman beating Supervisor Jeff Sheehy in District 8 in June of 2018.[14])

Breed was inaugurated as District 5 supervisor on January 8, 2013, with then-California Attorney General Kamala Harris administering the oath of office.[15] On January 8, 2015 Breed was elected President of the San Francisco Board of Supervisors first by a vote of 8 to 3 and then unanimously. She defeated supervisor David Campos who was also nominated for the position.[16] Breed succeeded District Four Supervisor Katy Tang who assumed the presidency temporarily after then-Board President David Chiu resigned to begin serving in the California Assembly.[17][18]

In February 2016, Breed announced her re-election bid to represent District 5. The top issues she identified in her announcement were building and protecting affordable housing, increasing public safety, improving environmental health, and modernizing public transportation.[19] Dean Preston, an attorney, ran against her. Breed won reelection 52% to 48% on November 8, 2016, beating Preston in 46 of the district's 68 precincts.[20][21]

As part of an FBI investigation into public corruption and bid-fixing, businessman Derf Butler was recorded talking about allegedly paying for access to Breed. Butler, according to court documents released in 2015, told an FBI source that he "pays Supervisor Breed with untraceable debit cards for clothing and trips in exchange for advantages on contracts in San Francisco." The claim was denied by Breed and no evidence has been presented in the years since to substantiate the allegation.[22]

Breed was unanimously re-elected to another two-year term as Board President on January 9, 2017. No other supervisors were nominated for the position.[23]

Mayor

Following the death of Mayor Ed Lee on December 12, 2017, Breed became the city's Acting Mayor by virtue of her position as President of the Board of Supervisors.[24][25] She served in this position until January 23, 2018, when the Board of Supervisors selected Mark Farrell to serve as interim mayor until the special election could be held on June 5. Supervisors Aaron Peskin, Jane Kim (herself a candidate for Mayor), and others considered the progressive members of the board, sought to deny Breed the benefits of incumbency going into the election.[26][27] Progressive Supervisor Hillary Ronen, former Chief of Staff to Breed's erstwhile opponent for the Board of Supervisors presidency David Campos,[28] delivered a tearful speech accusing Breed, an African American woman from public housing, of being supporting by "white, rich men" and "billionaires" such as Ron Conway.[29] Ironically the Supervisors' choice, Mark Farrell, is a white male venture capitalist whose firm Ron Conway had invested in.[30]

Breed ran in the mayoral special election held on June 5.[31] Breed led in the initial count's first place votes with 35.6 percent, with Mark Leno in second with 25.9 percent, and Kim with 22.8 percent. Leno took the lead early the next day after the initial tabulation of ranked-choice ballots,[32] but Breed re-took the lead on June 9.[33][34] On June 13, with only 8,000 ballots left to count,[35] Leno conceded defeat and congratulated Breed on her victory.[36] Breed resigned her position as president of the Board of Supervisors on June 26, 2018, and was succeeded by Malia Cohen in a unanimous vote by the Board. Breed retained her position as District 5 supervisor until assuming the mayoralty on July 11, 2018.[37] Breed has declared her intention to run for a full term in the next regular mayoral election, due to be held on November 5, 2019.[38]

As mayor, Breed took several unannounced walks through different neighborhoods of the city. She created a taskforce of members of the San Francisco Department of Public Works to clean up feces from the sidewalks of the city, which is referred to as a 'Poop Patrol'.[39][40]

Legislative record

Public Safety

Breed authored legislation in 2014 to allow the San Francisco City Attorney to pursue civil damages against graffiti taggers, instead of solely relying on criminal prosecutions to punish taggers.[41] In 2016, City Attorney Dennis Herrera used these new penalties to win a civil judgment against serial tagger Terry Cozy that resulted in a $217,831.64 fine.[42]

The San Francisco Fire Department's response times to emergency medical calls spiked dramatically in 2014 with ambulances often not being available to respond. Breed was outspoken in demanding improvements, pushing then-Mayor Lee to do more, expressing a lack of confidence in Fire Chief Joanne Hayes-White,[43] and generating press attention for the issue.[44] Breed fought for substantially more funding for emergency medical services,[45] ultimately succeeding in getting $47.3 million invested to hire EMTs, paramedics, firefighters, and 911 dispatchers, as well as buy new ambulances and fire trucks, and improve SFFD facilities.[46] Breed has cited her work on this issue as helping to reduce ambulance response times by over 26%.[47][48] Her work also helped her earn the sole endorsement of the San Francisco Firefighters Local 798 union in the 2018 mayoral election.[49]

In 2015 Breed worked with then-Mayor Ed Lee to help add 400 new police officers to the San Francisco Police Department[50] and outfit every officer with body cameras.[51]  Breed was also the deciding vote in favor of then-Supervisor Scott Wiener's legislation to increase police staffing levels as the city's population grows.[52] After the shooting of Mario Woods by San Francisco police officers on December 2, 2015, Breed and Supervisor Malia Cohen passed a Resolution calling for a federal investigation of the shooting and a Department of Justice review of the SFPD’s use of force policies.[53][54] This ultimately resulted in 272 recommendations to improve the SFPD.[55]

Also in 2015, Breed led the effort to stop a proposed $380 million new jail for San Francisco, saying: “I’ve seen way too many people from my community, friends, even family members, end up on the wrong side of these iron bars,” and calling the jail proposal “a return to an era of mass incarceration, an era San Francisco is trying to leave behind.” She created a working group to develop an alternative to the jail proposal including "new mental health facilities and current jail retrofits needed to uphold public safety and better serve at-risk individuals."[56][57]

In 2016 Breed again partnered with Supervisor Cohen to pass two ballot measures regarding the police department, the first requiring investigations of all officer-involved shootings[58] and the other reforming the Department of Police Accountability.[59] Both passed overwhelmingly.[60][61] Breed also worked with then-Mayor Ed Lee to pass a $350 million Public Health and Safety Bond in 2016, which is funding $272 million in improvements for fire and healthcare facilities, $58 million for a new ambulance center, and $20 million for homeless shelters.[62]

In 2017 Breed passed legislation to prevent car break-ins in tourist hot spots and commercial corridors by requiring rental car companies to inform their customers of the risks.[63][64]
