Constituent Reviews of Karen Bass
Karen's been super frustrating lately. She talks a big game about fixing housing but then blocks projects that could actually help. Like we need more housing now not years of delays. As a city planner it’s maddening to see her side with NIMBYs when SF is in crisis. I do appreciate that she’s been more responsive to climate stuff though so I’ll give her that. But honestly if she doesn’t step up on housing soon I’m done supporting her.
Honestly I wasn’t sure about Karen at first but she’s been solid for LA. She’s actually fixing stuff like the roads and dealing with homelessness more than I expected 👍 Healthcare needs more attention though like cmon it’s a crisis here 💔. I respect that she listens when communities push back. Immigration could use major focus that’s where I feel let down 🤷♂️ but overall she’s doing better than most. Way better than the last guy 😂.
She's been doing a decent job honestly. Love her focus on education and climate stuff 👍🌍
