"San Francisco's Shift: Welfare Drug Screening and Increased Police Surveillance"
Voters in San Francisco, known for its liberal politics, have supported conservative ballot measures aimed at addressing homelessness, drug addiction, and crime. The measures include drug screening for welfare recipients and giving police more surveillance power. The city's Democratic mayor, London Breed, sponsored the initiatives and claimed victory, signaling a shift towards more moderate policies in the city. Despite opposition from some residents and experts, supporters argue that these measures are necessary to address the worsening conditions on the city's streets.
