5:30 pm
everyone, my name is (inaudible) and i am the current district six commissioner and i am also a senior from the (inaudible) and first of all i really want to thank supervisor campos and supervisor ferrill and uls my district six supervisor jane kim for helping to sponsor this arch, bishop resolution and to support the students that are against these mortality clause and to support our teachers that are fighting for the rights as teachers. and recently we have had two vigils so that we can experience our concerns against these mortality clauses and since then when this was issued earlier and this is brought about earlier in february, and our school community has been in some sort of devastated atmosphere and the reason for that is our teachers, are living in some sort of culture of fear, and by that, i mean that if this goes about this
5:31 pm
contract, and these mortality issues goes about in the land book and in our next school year we are going to be forced to sign a contract that teaches against homosexuality and against using birth controls and as supervisor campos stated it is totally going against what the pope has mentioned and as a growing catholic myself i believe that religion should be used to be more ininclusive and include those that even the lgbt community and especially if you are using these mortality clauses to go against a specific group of people that is not religion at all and that is not teaching what love is in our catholic faith, and i just really want to commend you all for putting this out in your agenda and hearing our voices out. >> thank you. >> next speaker please? >> good afternoon, members of the board of supervisors, my name is avalos and i am the young commissioner for
5:32 pm
district five and i just want to reiterate my colleague words of support for this resolution, about a week ago on february 17th this came to the full board of the youth commission and i personally did not support the motion that we made in we supported the board to contend the mortality, not because i don't support the students, i will support anybody that is standing up for their rights when they feel there is an injustice, what i did not support it for though was i felt it was ap prehenive because i thought it was constitutionally inappropriate to tell a private institution to go about their business. but what i do believe as my colleague has said is that you know religion should not be used as a tool. despite whatever the philosophy may be to craoe division and bigotry and i think that these students
5:33 pm
want to feel that they belong and that they feel safe and especially the teachers that they are accepted and the workforce and i think that this resolution is great. and i will definitely keep supporting the students who are standing up for their rights. >> thank you. >> next speaker please. >> my name is joe -- and for my allotted time i would like to play mr. lanyata video. >> unfortunately at this time because the video is said to be similar to campaigning, we cannot allow campaigning in the board chambers. >> okay. >> then i will just speak then. >> okay. >> thank you. >> thank you. >> madam president and supervisors my name is joe valasko and i have been working with nism since i was 20 years old as a county clerk he used to own the (inaudible) a chain of retail stores and i am now, nism director of real estate and i would like to recognize mr.
