Thank you for seeking GrowSF's endorsement for the June 2, 2026 primary election! GrowSF believes in a growing, vibrant, healthy, safe, and prosperous city via common sense solutions and effective government.
As a candidate for federal office, your day-to-day responsibilities in office will affect not just San Francisco, but California and the United States as a whole. As a representative of the people of California and of San Francisco, the policies you bring to Washington should reflect the best of what we have to offer.
The GrowSF endorsement committee will review all completed questionnaires and seek consensus on which candidates best align with our vision for San Francisco and have the expertise to enact meaningful policy changes.
We ask that you please complete this questionnaire by March 4, 2026 so we have enough time to adequately review and discuss your answers.
Special Note
Although this questionnaire is for a federal office, we are limiting our questions solely to issues that affect San Francisco directly. Our expertise is in local, city-scale issues, and not in international relations or national issues.
In your responses, please try to apply a San Francisco lens. We are interested in your answers as a representative of San Francisco, and how you will represent the interests of the City.
