Out knocking on doors near Sunset Blvd this morning πŸšͺβ˜€οΈβ€”over 100 doors and great conversations with neighbors.

From offers of water πŸ’§ to a family debate about the Great Highway, the support out here is so different from what you see online ❀️

Someone even shouted from their door, β€œWe support you!”

πŸ₯Ÿ Frozen dumplings + beef roll pancakes

Every dish is πŸ‘©πŸ»β€πŸ³πŸ˜™πŸ€ŒπŸΌ

Drop by and have a bite!

Commentary: β€˜Don’t Rewrite History on Eighth Grade Algebra’ As one of the plaintiffs who sued SFUSD to bring Algebra back, I feel compelled to speak out because I can’t stand by while people erase the truth. That truth is this: Supervisor Joel Engardi…

The Sunset Beacon: 'Don’t Rewrite History on Eighth Grade Algebra'

Rex Ridgeway: "I saw firsthand the impact of Joel’s advocacy. This was a victory for all of San Francisco – and Joel Engardio helped deliver it."

Thank you, RexπŸ™πŸ½

Who helped bring Algebra back to SF’s 8th grade classrooms?

Rex Ridgeway, plaintiff in the lawsuit, says:

πŸ‘‰ β€œWere it not for Prop G and you taking the lead…”
πŸ‘‰ β€œYou put it on steroids.”

We fought together β€” and we won.

πŸŽ₯ Watch & share.

✏️ San Francisco banned Algebra in 8th grade for a decade.

🀯 Yes, seriously.

Parents fought to bring it back.

I helped put Prop G on the ballot β€” and we won with 81%.

Now Algebra is back. And we’ll make sure it stays.

β€œHe has done a lot of good things for us at Sunset. Proven effectiveness.”

🧑 Thank you, Lisa Xu, for your kind words and support.

I’m proud of the work we’ve done together β€” from supporting small businesses and the night market, to improving cleanliness and green spaces across D4.

Spent the morning at Firehouse 23, the Sunset’s closest firehouse to the ocean πŸŒŠπŸš’

They do a lot of ocean rescues here β€” one of the newest firefighters even used to be a lifeguard at Ocean Beach πŸŠβ€β™‚οΈπŸ”₯

Grateful for the chance to chat.

While Stern Grove and Golden Gate Park were packed with music lovers, our campaign HQ was packed with neighbors ready to knock doors and speak the truth.

Old and young. Parents, students, seniors. Black, white, Asian, LGBTQ.

This is what people power looks like.

Vote NO on A. Stop the Recall.

πŸ•ΊπŸ’ƒ Saturday morning exercise β€” Sunset style!

The folks at Stern Grove and Golden Gate Park weren’t the only ones having fun this weekend…

Grateful to dance, rally, and move with friends at Ortega Library β€” standing up for our community, joy, and the truth.

Let’s continue building a better Sunset.

Lisa is a grandmother in the Sunset β€” and she’s setting the record straight.

πŸ“š She saw with her own eyes how I helped bring Algebra back to the 8th grade.

πŸ’₯ Lisa is standing up to defend the truth β€” and I’m grateful.

Asian elders in the Sunset are fed up β€” and calling out the lies from my opponents.

Today, they stood with me to call out the nonsense being used to divide and confuse voters in the Sunset.

βœ… They’ve had enough of the smear campaign.

βœ… They know the truth.

βœ… And they’re standing with me.

πŸš—πŸ©πŸ’₯ Donut speed bumps were just installed at 42nd & Lawton.

This was a known hotspot for illegal sideshows.

🚫 The City and I have zero tolerance for this.

βœ… These speed bumps deter the chaos. More are ready if sideshows pop up elsewhere.

We’re shutting it down.

We’re keeping the Sunset safe. πŸŒ…

Like Boston, San Francisco has its very own "emerald necklace" β€” a loop of green space from Lake Merced to Fort Funston. 🌿

Mayor @danielluriesf.bsky.social, Senator @scottwiener.bsky.social, and I just invested $1.5M to revitalize Sunset Boulevard β€” the key link in the loop.

Let’s make it shine. ✨

β€œYou’re the only politician to knock on my door in 40 years.”

Sunset resident Helen sent me this noteπŸ’Œβ€”and a generous donation to keep going.

I believe in earning every vote the old-fashioned way: by showing up.

Every door we knock is making a difference.

Thank you, HelenπŸ™πŸ½

🚸 SFUSD is shutting down the Shared Schoolyard Program β€” which opened schoolyards on weekends across San Francisco.

I just introduced a resolution to save it.

Because every kid deserves a safe place to play near home.

Let’s keep our public spaces open.

At Black Bird Bookstore on Irving Street between 46th and 47th avenues, owner Kathryn Grantham told SFGATE her sales are up 50% over last year, when the Great Highway was closed to cars on weekends, and jumped by 30% following the opening of the Sunset Dunes park.

Commentary: β€˜Joel Engardio Must NOT Be Recalled’ I support Joel because I’ve experienced the kind of leader he is – inclusive, accessible, responsive, and above all, visionary. He genuinely listens, seeks collaboration and brings people together …

"Joel Engardio is not perfect. No elected official is. But he is present, thoughtful and committed to a shared vision of the Sunset as a vibrant, inclusive and livable neighborhood.

This recall isn’t about accountability. It’s about division. And I reject it."

Thank you, Poppy πŸ™πŸ½

πŸ” After recent break-ins on Taraval, I visited our small businesses to check in, share city programs that can help β€” and make myself available.

Anytime someone is a victim of crime, it’s a violation. It shakes your sense of safety, and it’s not okay.

I’m honored to be endorsed by the United Democratic Club.

They said:

"Joel has been a steadfast advocate for public safety, more housing, and a more vibrant San Francisco. He’s delivered real results for the Sunset β€” and we need to keep moving forward.”
