"what the Mayor is proposing is a permanent “structural change” to how JumpStart revenue is used at the City, funding an individual administration’s priorities ahead of the long-term needs around affordable housing and climate change."

Earlier this year, the Legislature appropriated $25 million from carbon market revenue for the tribe to buy back an 11,000-acre parcel of the reservation, the last large privately owned portion, Johnston said. But that money would disappear if Initiative 2117 passes.

"The City Council should amend the Mayor’s proposed budget to double tenant services to $5 million per year, and increase rental assistance funds to at least $2 million per year."

"Cuts to these services will put vulnerable tenants at risk. Without rental assistance and legal aid, more people will be evicted by default in the back rooms of Zoom court proceedings. You won’t know about them until you see them sleeping on the street."
