Rob Black Opposes Proposition H – Gets Support from Civic Center Landlords
District 6 has the largest tenant population in the City, and Supervisor Chris Daly has established his bona fides over the last six years as one of the most pro-tenant voices at City Hall. So if Daly’s challenger, Rob Black, is going to run a credible campaign against him this November, he’s got his work cut out for him – and as it appears, Black has a problematic record on tenants’ rights. At this week’s meeting of the San Francisco Young Democrats, Black came out against Proposition H, which would increase relocation assistance for vulnerable tenants who have been evicted due to no fault of their own. His reason? He opposes placing propositions on the ballot without a public hearing. But that didn’t stop everyone from Supervisor Bevan Dufty to the Alice B Toklas Democratic Club from endorsing Prop H -- and it puts Black in the company of Republican Mike Denunzio (who penned the official ballot argument against it.)
