Positions

LiberalConservative

Economy & Taxes

As mayor, London Breed has proposed tax incentives and pauses on scheduled tax increases to attract businesses and support downtown recovery, while also proposing targeted spending increases in public safety and services within balanced budgets. Her budgets have included temporary gross-receipts discounts for new downtown offices, waivers of city fees for new small businesses, and delays to planned tax hikes for affected industries. These proposals pair business-friendly tax reforms with maintained or increased city spending in prioritized areas such as public safety and homelessness services.

Healthcare

Supports expanding access to public health services—with an emphasis on behavioral health, substance use treatment, and city-run clinics—and has advanced funding and legislation to increase treatment beds, streamline enrollment in benefits like Medi‑Cal, and invest in hospital infrastructure. Policy actions prioritize rapid expansion of mental health services, care coordination for high‑need unhoused residents, and capital funding for public hospitals.

Immigration & Border

London Breed has repeatedly defended San Francisco’s sanctuary policies, opposed federal immigration raids and restrictive federal rules (including the Public Charge rule), and prioritized city services and legal assistance for immigrants. Her statements frame immigration enforcement actions as harmful to families and public safety and emphasize protecting asylum-seekers and mixed-status families.

Abortion & Reproductive Rights

London Breed supports protecting and expanding access to abortion and reproductive healthcare. As mayor she proposed the San Francisco Reproductive Freedom Act to prohibit cooperation with out-of-state abortion prosecutions, fund reproductive care access, and declare city policy to safeguard comprehensive reproductive freedom. She has publicly expressed that overturning Roe v. Wade was devastating and has taken steps to prepare the city to receive people seeking reproductive care.

Climate & Energy

Supports aggressive local climate action including commitments to 100% renewable electricity by 2030, building electrification and net‑zero buildings, widespread electrification of ground transportation, and investments in zero‑emission public transit and charging infrastructure. Has launched citywide climate resilience and grant programs to advance emissions reductions and clean‑energy deployment.

Public Safety & Guns

Supports city-led gun violence prevention (grants, buy‑backs, intervention programs) and targeted restrictions on some weapon types while also backing investments in and tools for local law enforcement to address violent crime. Emphasizes community-based prevention and collaboration with police rather than defunding police. Advocates use of technology and policy changes to give police more tools to reduce gun violence.
