Even SF Mayor London Breed (!) is pushing back on Woke racial nonsense
Even as calls increase around the Bay for effective city employees to be coerced out of their jobs in the name of racial equity, London Breed has had enough, and is making a stand for meritocracy and rewarding success. Reason magazine explains.
SF Mayor London Breed and other elected officials have criticized the City Election commission's decision not to renew the contract of Elections Director John Arntz. By their account,he took over a troubled department 20 years ago and turned it around, running smooth and fair elections. "Our decision wasn't about your performance, but after twenty years we wanted to take action on the City's racial equity plan and give people an opportunity to compete for a leadership position," said commission President chris Jerdonek in an email to Artnz, who is white. The commission eventually changed course and is set to vote on a five-year renewal for Artnz.
