Mayor Daniel Lurie's fentanyl crisis proposals are expected to secure sufficient votes for passage, potentially attaining a supermajority within the Board of Supervisors. Despite concerns regarding reduced oversight and lack of specified plans, support continues to grow among supervisors. Board President Mandelman's endorsement further guarantees passage, highlighting a collaborative legislative approach. Chair Connie Chan emphasizes the historical context of the crisis, attributing it to federal policy failures over decades. Lurie's administration contrasts with London Breed's, indicating a shift in political strategy towards inclusivity and reform.
"I appreciate the Mayor's willingness to work with members of the Board to address their concerns regarding this legislation. I'm happy to support the result - a package of sensible reforms to streamline the City's response to the crisis on our streets that also preserves an oversight role for the Board," said Board of Supervisors President Mandelman.
"From my perspective is really from the draconian policies of decades from our federal government." - Chair Connie Chan.
