SF Board of Supervisors wants to protect City Hall with a Budget Boost

1/28 & 1/31) Stop the cuts at CCSF!

The San Francisco Labor Council just passed a resolution supporting Supervisor Walton’s legislation allocating a $2.7 million dollar budget supplemental for City College to restore the classes cut from the Spring and Summer 2020 schedules last November. With 7 out of 11 Supervisors pledging support for the measure, we expect it to pass when the Board votes tomorrow. (January 28, 2029)

Help us keep CCSF the kind of college all of our San Francisco communities deserve! Join two upcoming hearings at City Hall in room 250 on the devastating class cuts at City College. PLEASE RSVP

Please wear red for education. If you have to prioritize one event please plan to participate on Friday 1/31 from 9:30-11:30am.
