About Scott Wiener
For the past 28 years, Senator Scott Wiener has worked day and night for San Franciscans, never giving up until the job is done. As a State Senator, member of the Board of Supervisors, Deputy City Attorney, and longtime community leader, he has championed progressive policies – including authoring and passing more than 100 state laws – to improve affordability and make San Franciscans safer, happier, healthier, and more secure.
Scott has never shied away from tough, important issues even at personal cost. He took on a broken status quo to help build a statewide and national pro-housing movement, despite a tidal wave of personal attacks. He aggressively advances a pro-LGBTQ legislative agenda despite intense political attacks from the likes of Marjorie Taylor Greene, Donald Trump Jr., and Ted Cruz, in addition to an avalanche of death threats. Scott Wiener always puts the community first, even if he pays a personal price for doing so in today’s toxic political environment.

Scott Wiener on Housing and Abundance
“He focused extensively on housing and public transportation, authoring laws to expedite approval of affordable housing, legalize new in-law units, and tie public transportation funding to population growth.”
“Scott will fight to rebuild union power in America and make sure bold action on housing, climate, and public transit means good union jobs and that the workers who build our roads, homes, and infrastructure have fair pay and rights.”
“Scott is a nationally renowned leader on housing, authoring California's most consequential streamlining laws resulting in the construction of tens of thousands of homes , including 3,000+ below market rate, affordable homes in San Francisco.”
