SF Mayor Lurie's Union Busting Drive On City Workers Threatens All Public Workers

San Francisco billionaire may Daniel Lurie is engaging in an open attack on union contract rights and civil service rules among public workers who are members of SEIU 1021 and IFPTE 21.

Without following seniority he transferred Department of Public Health workers to other centers and is closing community healthcare clines for youth and seniors. These cuts according to workers will lead to the deaths of their clients. The City has been contracting out billions of dollars of public work to private non-profits and other companies and this privatization was protested at the San Francisco Civil Service. IFPTE 21 is calling for a halt of all public jobs that are being contracted out by HR and SF Mayor Lurie.

City public workers are now working side by side with workers doing the same work at 30% less pay and benefits that public workers. While the City is closing public mental health and other clinics it is continuing to spend millions for outside contracts. SEIU 1021 and IFPTE 21 both attended the hearings at the SF Civil Service. The two of the three commissioners including Firefighter union member and labor council member Adam Woods voted to contract out social service workers who take care of children outside of San Francisco. The ongoing privatization of public services are escalating under billionaire mayor Lurie's direction. The City continues to contract out hundreds of millions of dollars as it shuts down public community healthcare centers and pushes more privatization.

Also the violation of San Francisco Civil Service rules was protested by San Francisco City workers a unions on 5/18/26.
