San Francisco Mayor Daniel Lurie is pushing to oust a progressive holdover from the previous administration after allegations arose that she secretly worked a side job for a political group and steered city money towards friends. 

Kimberly Ellis, the director of the San Francisco Department on the Status of Women, was put on leave in March and is scheduled to face a vote Wednesday night that could result in her dismissal, the San Francisco Chronicle reported. The progressive activist was appointed by former Democratic Mayor London Breed in 2020 to lead a city agency created to give women equal representation in City Hall.
