Danny Sauter for District 3 Supervisor 李爾德

👏🏽Honored to share a new endorsement from Amy Lee, the Founder of Dear Community.

Amy's record of advocacy and action in Chinatown is inspiring and it means so much to have her support in District 3!

“Danny has been a strong ally of our community, from supporting seniors in Chinatown to speaking out against Asian Hate. Danny will work for solutions, from more Cantonese-speaking police officers on the streets to fixing bureaucracy that hurts immigrant-owned businesses.”

Happy to join the wonderful folks at United Democratic Club and contribute to their annual toy drive! 🎅

Getting started in District 3 with the Devil's Teeth + Green Apple Books pop-up at the Embarcadero! 🦈📚

It was wonderful to be in Chinatown with today as we served 500+ meals to our neighbors!

Happy Thanksgiving from where we served hundreds of our neighbors with a warm meal and some Holiday cheer! 🎃🦃🍂

Meet my neighbor and friend, Angela.

When she heard that APEC was coming, she wanted to make sure North Beach was united in welcoming the world to our neighborhood.

She took matters into her own hands and designed and printed posters herself.

She's gone door to door this week hanging the posters. Business owners donated a few dollars to cover the printing costs.

These now hang at 50+ businesses around the neighborhood.

It's a small gesture but shows the best of our city and our civic pride. Go Angela 👏

We just celebrated the 6th anniversary of the North Beach Farmers Market! 🍅

Staring the market has meant lots of early mornings and hard work, but most of all, joy!

There's nothing better than having a community space for neighbors to gather every week. To many more years! 🥦

I'm honored to share a major campaign update: Senator Scott Wiener has endorsed our campaign for District 3 Supervisor!

“Danny is exactly the type of leader who we need right now on our Board of Supervisors. He has a long track record of showing up and fighting the hard fights on critical issues like housing and transit.”
— Senator Scott Wiener

We all know Senator Scott Wiener as a steadfast champion on issues that matter to our city, from housing and transit to climate change and LGBTQ rights.

I still remember knocking on doors for Senator Wiener's campaign some eight years ago. Beyond his incredible legislative record of delivering results for our city, he's taught me the importance of hard work and speaking to every voter.

That's exactly our plan for the year ahead: reach every voter in District 3 with our message of safer neighborhoods, a revitalized downtown, and a City Hall that finally works.

Our election is exactly *365 days* away.

There's so much on the line: safer neighborhoods, abundant and affordable housing, and a clean and vibrant downtown.

Can you donate now so we can have the resources to spread our message? ⤵️

Happy to be serving another term on the board of North Beach Neighbors!

We've got an important year ahead to bring so many projects to life that will help make our amazing neighborhood even better ☀️🌳

🇮🇹 There was amazing energy today in North Beach as we marched and celebrated Italian Heritage Day.

Wonderful to be part of the 155th annual parade!

🖥️ Yesterday I joined community partners to announce our work to build a new Computer Lab in Chinatown! This will bring computers to hundreds of students and seniors in Chinatown, paired with instructors to assist in everything from homework help to booking doctors appointments to ESL instruction.

⚰️ A funeral for public transportation 🚍

20+ Muni lines cut.
No weekend or evening BART service.
Tens of thousands more cars congesting our streets.

This unthinkable scenario will be a reality unless the state steps in soon. There's just a few more days for Phil Ting and Gavin Newsom to act. Follow this link and make your voice heard in just a few minutes:

Loved joining the Asian American Pacific Islander Celebration at TEL HI Neighborhood Center this week! Telegraph Hill Neighborhood Center / TEL HI does incredible work to support and empower older adults living in the North Beach and Chinatown neighborhoods.

Happy that Neighborhood Centers Together - NCT was able to provide a grant to make this amazing event possible!

It was wonderful to attend last week's "Taste of Tel Hi." This annual event benefits TEL HI Neighborhood Center, a vital resource in the North Beach and Chinatown communities.

I'm proud to work with TEL HI both as a neighbor and as part of our Neighborhood Centers Together - NCT network. Their 133 years of social services and community programming are at the heart of keeping our neighborhood thriving.

❤️ Our Chinatown Restaurant Tour was a success! Thanks to everyone who joined us for our "Buns & Boba" event this weekend as we explored three amazing family-owned Chinatown restaurants.

I think we all came away full, happy, and with a renewed sense of how special Chinatown and its incredible small business owners are.

This was so much fun to organize. A special thanks to Jonathan at Chinatown Volunteer Coalition and Myron of BeChinatown for your partnership and support!

Great morning for our monthly neighborhood cleanup! We collected 40+ bags, a new record for us 🗑️💪 Thanks to everyone who showed up and pitched in.

🚇 Read my new Op-Ed in Wind Newspaper: "Central Subway's slow start demands immediate fixing."

15 minute wait times for trains, broken escalators, and blank signs are no recipe for a great transit line. SFMTA cannot cut the ribbon and walk away from its promises.

Grateful to Wind Newspaper for letting me share this op-ed in their paper. Since this line has been a promise to Chinatown decades in the making, it was important for me to share in an English-Chinese bi-lingual newspaper.

🛒 Safeway recently announced it would be closing their 350 Bay St. location in North Beach/Fisherman's Wharf. This deeply impacts ~20k residents within 1/2 mile of the store left without an affordable grocery store. A weekly errand just got much more expensive and difficult.

Since the announcement, I've talked with dozens of concerned neighbors and with stakeholders around the area. I believe we have a real chance to bring in another affordable grocery store - namely Grocery Outlet - to serve the area. We need to show demand and interest to attract a new affordable grocery store (Grocery Outlet or others).

📝 Please sign the petition! Just launched, we're already at 500+ signatures but need many more. Thank you!

Happy 67th anniversary, Caffe Trieste!☕🥳

I enjoyed sitting down with KTSF for the weekly ‘Chinese Journal’ show. We had a wide-ranging conversation on how our neighborhoods can work together, public safety in Chinatown and North Beach, and so much more.

Anni Chung has hosted ‘Chinese Journal’ on KTSF (Channel 26) for decades. The weekly show has become a vital source of news for the Bay Area’s Cantonese speaking residents. It was an honor to join Anni, and to practice a bit of Cantonese as well!

It was a beautiful morning for our neighborhood cleanup in North Beach! Nothing like getting together with a few dozen neighbors and working together to beatify our community 😊

Had a blast at Key's Jazz Bistro for the North Beach Neighbors March Happy Hour. We were treated to a fantastic show at the new venue that showcases the best of Bay Area jazz. So happy to have Keys in the neighborhood - be sure to go see a show soon!

This is a must-read piece that traces the maze of bureaucracy and obstruction which results in San Francisco being the hardest city in the country to build housing.

As residents and voters, we need to demand this be fixed now.

From seniors scared to go outside to small businesses tired of being broken into, our city is reeling from public safety concerns.

Residents deserve action, not obstruction. The Board of Supervisors must listen and schedule this vital hearing on public safety now.

San Francisco's downtown core, seen in this map, has only 350 units of housing today. 350!

The Downtown of the future needs to look less like a Financial District and more like a neighborhood.

Introducing Viva North Beach! Very happy that Hoodline shared this profile on the new program I've been working on in North Beach to support our small businesses.

With North Beach Neighbors and San Francisco Office of Economic and Workforce Development (OEWD), our program has awarded 26 small businesses with marketing support and profiles. Read on to learn more!

Viva North Beach program provides free marketing support for local small businesses Thanks to neighborhood association North Beach Neighbors, 26 lucky small business owners recently benefited from free marketing support in the form of professional videos, photos, copywriting or guidance on using social media platforms like TikTok.

Thanks to all our panelists and guests who joined for last week's "Future of Downtown" event that I hosted with San Francisco Eastern Neighborhoods Democratic Club.

We dug into the action needed for downtown to recover. With downtown responsible for ~75% of our city's GDP, we need all hands on deck in this effort.
