San Francisco Supervisor Proposes Daily Arrests for Drug Use to Address SoMa Crisis

Credited from: SFGATE

  • San Francisco Supervisor Matt Dorsey has proposed arresting at least 100 people per day for drug use amidst rising disorder in SoMa’s Sixth Street.
  • Dorsey has written to several city departments seeking ways to maximize large-scale arrests to combat the “drug-related lawlessness” in the area.
  • Local businesses report the situation is worse than ever, as drug use and public crises have made walking in the area challenging.
  • While some public health advocates oppose using criminal penalties for treating substance misuse, Dorsey believes it is necessary to address the public health catastrophe.
  • This proposal arises in a climate of growing support for stiffer penalties for public drug use, reflected in California’s recent passage of Proposition 36.
