The small firm Huffman runs with her sister is being paid by five ballot measure campaigns this year, public records show — more than it has taken on in previous elections.

She also supports\u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/election-2020-guide/proposition-21-rent-control/\"> Prop. 21\u003c/a> to make it easier for cities to expand rent control, and says both measures would help California’s Black communities.

Her firm helps political campaigns build coalitions and get their messages out through media, advertising and a newsletter called the “\u003ca href=\"http://acpublicaffairs.com/?page_id=52\">Minority News\u003c/a>.” Many of the messages \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/09/Gmail-Prop-22.pdf\">feature Huffman\u003c/a> and her role with the NAACP.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Over the years, Huffman’s consulting business and the California NAACP’s endorsements have aligned many times.

The same thing happened in 2018, when Huffman’s firm was paid nearly $900,000 \u003ca href=\"https://www.sfchronicle.com/politics/article/Rent-control-foes-hire-California-NAACP-leader-13144448.php\">by the campaign fighting a rent control measure\u003c/a>, and $90,000 by dialysis companies opposing an initiative that would have increased their cost of doing business.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Both measures failed in 2018 but are back on the ballot this year, and the campaigns trying to defeat them have again hired Huffman. Michael Bustamante, a spokesman for the campaign against the \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/election-2020-guide/proposition-21-rent-control/\">Prop. 21\u003c/a> rent control measure, said Huffman is motivated by what’s best for Black Californians.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“In 2018, she was passionate in her opposition to Prop. 10 because of what it would do to the African American community,” he said, referring to opponents’ argument that more rent control would drive up the cost of housing by discouraging developers from building.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Over and over again she talked about how homeownership… enables African American families to get a toehold to better their future.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Bustamante, who is also a spokesperson for the campaign against raising commercial property taxes, said in a statement that “the NAACP took its position in opposition to Prop. 15 based on clear facts that they outlined in their March 2nd report,”\u003ca href=\"http://www.ca-naacp.org/images/Forms/NAACP_-Social_Justice_Study_two.pdf\"> which says\u003c/a> social justice advocates should be concerned that the measure would increase costs for consumers and doesn’t do enough to protect small businesses.[pullquote size=\"medium\" align=\"right\" citation=\"Carol Fife, Oakland NAACP officer\"]\"“I feel like it’s a conflict of interest and I think it’s misleading to the public.”\"[/pullquote]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Campaign finance records show the anti-Prop. 15 campaign made its first payment to Huffman’s firm, of $70,000, on Feb. 25.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The campaign funded by dialysis companies opposing an initiative that would require their clinics to have a doctor on site hired Huffman to educate African American voters “about the dangers of Prop. 23,” said campaign spokesperson Kathy Fairbanks.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Prop. 23 is particularly dangerous for communities of color because they suffer from kidney disease and need dialysis at higher rates,” she said in a statement. “Prop. 23 would force the shutdown of many clinics, jeopardizing the life-saving dialysis patients need.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Huffman has told reporters in the past that she only takes on political clients whose campaigns are aligned with the California NAACP’s positions.

There were experiments, hopes, new beginnings. Then came the buildup in Vietnam, and I watched this program broken and eviscerated as if it were some idle political plaything of a society gone mad on war. And I knew that America would never invest the necessary funds or energies in rehabilitation of its poor so long as adventures like Vietnam continued to draw men and skills and money like some demonic, destructive suction tube.

The same thing can be done for African Americans.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The NAACP wants to use the additional tax revenue to fund new tutoring and mentoring programs and other support services for the city's black public school students, many of whom, it says, face unique challenges to academic success, including elevated rates of depression and other mental health issues that stem from high rates of poverty and violence in their communities.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The group is also asking that taxes be used to help support former black residents of San Francisco who have been displaced because of widespread gentrification and urban renewal projects, and to fund a new housing lottery system that would give black residents preference in the city's nonprofit, public and affordable housing developments.

The issue has been raised during recent presidential debates, and several Democratic hopefuls, including Sen. Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts, Sen. Cory Booker of New Jersey and former Housing and Urban Development Secretary Julián Castro, have declared their support for legislation that would commission a study on reparations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>San Francisco, the NAACP emphasized, is one of the wealthiest cities in the nation, and has an obligation to address its ongoing failure to provide equal opportunity to black residents, who have been forced out in droves. The group notes that African Americans today make up less than 5% of the city's population, down from about 13% in the 1970s. And while an estimated 10% of all San Francisco residents live in poverty, that rate hovers above 30% for its black residents, according to \u003ca href=\"https://sfgov.org/scorecards/safety-net/poverty-san-francisco\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">city figures\u003c/a> from 2018.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Reparations could help the city's remaining black population stay here and flourish, the group said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Right now the numbers are so low.
