Statement from Mayor London Breed on International Women's Day

“Today we honor all of the women who came before us and fought for the rights we enjoy each and every day, while also recommitting ourselves to lifting up the next generation of young women leaders. I would never have had the opportunity to serve as San Francisco’s second woman mayor, and its first African-American woman mayor, were it not for the trailblazers who stood up, spoke out, and sacrificed for the right to vote, to be represented, and to be treated equally under the law. While we are constantly reminded of just how much work remains to be done, we will continue to build upon the progress we have made towards creating a fairer and just society for women everywhere.”
