San Francisco

San Francisco's June 2026 ballot includes Prop D, an "Overpaid CEO Tax" that critics say would exempt major tech companies while hitting grocery stores and pharmacies with an 800% rate increase. Meanwhile, SFUSD's board voted 6-1 to adopt a new ethnic studies curriculum through what opponents call a rigged review process, with a legal challenge already filed the same night. Across both stories, a familiar pattern: city institutions making consequential decisions with broken processes and real costs for residents.
