Marla was working for a humanitarian organization she founded called CIVIC (Campaign for Inno...

Yet now, Mayor Gavin Newsom wants to launch another salvo at low-income and working class people by cutting in half funding for this aid. Should this proposed cut become a reality, vulnerable tenants throughout San Francisco, including monolingual Spanish speakers, will suffer....
