I'm introducing a resolution supporting California State Assembly Bill Number 2564, authored by Assemblymember Chris Ward and coauthored by Assemblymember Ash Kalra.
Retailers are using personally identifiable consumer data to charge some consumers discriminatory prices in what is being called surveillance pricing.
Consumers' characteristics and behaviors like location, demographics, browsing patterns, mouse movements on web pages,
and shopping history are now being used against them to help corporations set individualized prices for products and services.
For example, a February 2025 SFGate investigation found that the most popular hotel booking sites show prices substantially higher, in one case $500 more per night for a Manhattan hotel, to San Franciscans using their online booking platforms,
compared with users browsing from less affluent cities like Phoenix and Kansas City.
No existing federal or state law prohibits companies from using the data they collect to charge consumers individually different prices.
That is why I am introducing this resolution to encourage the timely adoption of AB2564 to protect consumers from surveillance pricing.
I hope I can count on your support.
As well, I'm requesting the Budget and Legislative Analyst's Office evaluate the costs and other impacts of establishing a microenterprise home kitchen operations program in San Francisco that would allow San Francisco residents to prepare food for sale from their private residences.
At a time when the city is becoming increasingly unaffordable, it's important for us to continue looking for ways for San Franciscans, especially those without much access to large amounts of capital and people who migrate from other countries and are afraid of traveling to and from places of work among an increasingly hostile federal administration, to be able to make a living in this city.
In the mission, we have many longtime, small-scale Latino entrepreneurs, also known as food vendors, who have been caught in a complicated food permitting system.
It is my intent that a MECO program in San Francisco would complement our compact mobile food ordinance passed earlier this year and help food vendors use their homes to support their CMFO businesses, of course, abiding by all relevant local public health and permitting regulations.
Counties similar in size and urban character to San Francisco have seen successful MECO programs, including Alameda, Santa Clara, Contra Costa, San Mateo, and Los Angeles, and this BLA report will construct costs and operational profiles for each of these counties that can be used to estimate the normalized costs for a San Francisco MECO program.
I'm hopeful that this report can galvanize us as a city to take on this program and ensure San Francisco remains a city affordable to people of all walks of life.
I want to thank the Cook Alliance, the Mission Food Vendors Council, and Nuestra Causa for pushing the city forward and advising on this next step for a MECO program in San Francisco.
The rest I submit.
While these essential appointments are inexplicably and unnecessarily delayed, every day these seats go unfilled is the week government gets to operate in the dark.
The League of Women Voters urges you to put the Sunshine Ordinance Task Force member appointments on the agenda for your next meeting of the Rule of Committee without further delay.
Thank you, colleagues.
