the governors tried hard to keep the good paying jobs in our country and state of california i think it doesn't have to be a choice that harms the environmentalist as we grow the economy by the production of bart is an important initiate that will protect the environmentalist as well again, we're here to talk about local and national i don't want to speak to my characterizationtion of the governors action i'm not familiar with that i don't know if everyone else wants to speak but i support the governor's effort to keep the great jobs in the state but have the balance between growing the economy and protecting the environment that's essential and the mayor said it's nonld essential in the balance we should chief but a

formula for connect all the things we're talking about are done in the virl assigned way we're talking about reducing emissions about moving people taking them out of their cars and moving people all of it as ed said buy american the labels buy in america we want those to be green technology at the end of the day so we have a cash foot to the extent possible this is not only a one of the considerations it's a fundamental vail fundamental value of how we do this in a village sound way. >> i also think that infrastructure you know for california now, it's also going to be the water infrastructure that we need to really think and

fund that's a current debate in sacramento but i agree whooeld r wholeheartedly with leader pelosi position and the manufacturing for the future the green house gas emissions we ought to give more consideration to that product. (inaudible) >> by 200 r 2018 (inaudible). >> for those how didn't hear bits about equality. those union jobs i know that mike knows that better than everyone else here our middle-class jobs for workers

that want to earner their way forward the more projects that are infrastructure related and transportation related and water is from related for good paying jobs that i expect tesla to pay are all part of reestablishing and making sure we don't lose the middle-class that is the whole purpose of buy the american bonds act it is reestablishing what we have for the middle-class we need to do more in san francisco we need to do more and part pftd my responsibility is to build enough housing aimed at the sector with helping the low income >> i didn't say another piece of our make it in america one piece is to stop tank breaks to companies that send jobs oversees instead of companies that produce good paying jobs in

america and build jobs in america but if are your a company that wants to raise the pay and you want to go on behalf of a million dollars a year you can't take an additional tax write that off unnecessary unless i gave a raise to our employees because the income equality is a reality it's a growing gap and it's something that must be addressed so we can use the tax code to say we don't resent success we recognize that people take risks their xrirl they maybe worth of the increase by not sub disby the american people by giving them a write off if you want to you have to give a raise to our employees

that is thinking in a different way this is a bill chris and in the first one hundred days in the democratic majority we'll passes r pass those pyritic's legislation but this goes to the heart of your question what is important to note is structurally its not anecdotal it's real go back 40 years ago the disparity between the ceo and the workers was about foments; right? mike and product rows and the pay rose and the workers so it went together productivity and ceo raise that's called stakeholder capital liberalism you made decisions in terms of investors and the community at large and your customers the stakeholders

in our community. somewhere about a do so years ago maybe two it become she can't recall capitalism that had one thing the bottom line that means that now as productivity rises worker's wages stagnate and the ceo goes up liam like this it's about 350 others say 4 hundred times the ceo pay versus the worker it's a right acknowledge going in the wrong direction it must be addressed with no - with all the respect in the world with achievement and awards in the workplace but you understand that success comes from the worker and if that bottom line is big and the ceo pay is big because of the

expectation of the workers we're not going to underwrite it in the tax code that's why it's there and something that applies offer over the country we're blessed in the competition for space it makes a great challenge for the mayor but we're here to help over 7, 8, 9 with probably more affordable housing coming in san francisco and more initiate and low income tax credits and all kinds of projects recognizing that here boston and washington in some places where the cost of housing is having the balance of low income families in our city that is something we value. yes, ma'am >> (inaudible). >> well, i also it's a difference but 2 will be our

hope because electives are about two i elect to fill the job and the debate to the american people know the choices so one thing it could happen hearing a drumbeat for the minimum wage maybe more republicans will come on board and hearing the entire really the interest of the american people for building the san francisco for america they see it relates to the quality of their lives and the success of their businesses that maybe change their mind we want to use the campaign to see where you are on the minimum wage and equal worth and where are you on building the infrastructure and where are you on the cutting of the interest rates and the student loans and jobs and education and when women succeed

america successes when affordable chaefr pays raising the minimum wage we hope that the outcome of the election they'll embrace those when discussions are made we get rejected every time we bring up the raising the minimum wage harry reid gets the recreation but the act it's one of the best things you can do it grow the economy is increase the minimum wage you may not know a lot of people that make the minimum wage or maybe you do but i thank you for whatever you make because it's about consumer power. and raising the minimum wage gives consumer power injefferson county demands and gross the economy it's about growth where

are you on growth who's side you come down on in supporting the growth a bigger disparity in income we're very excited it's not all the things that people think of concerning a campaign but about job creation that's the major concern of american people thank you all for being here thank you, very much.much.
