mississippi sphere where people in elected office think it is okay to propose and vote for bills that take a class of americans and classify them as second class citizens. we see this around immigration and with respect to the lbgt in the community. it is important that as we get marriage equality in more and more states that we remember many many members of the lgbt community have no employment and housing protections and in fact we continue to see legislatures pass laws that say we are going to empower people to discriminate against lgbt people. it is good the state of indiana was forced to step back and monday the law. there are other states that tine to pursue this type of legislation have other forms of legislation

discriminating. it is important to go on record and think this amended resolution does this well >> thank you supervisor campose >> i want to thank supervisor wiener for the amendments and i think one thing this will require is our department or all of us to become-be mindful of the fact that there may be additional pieces of legislation in different parts of the country that are introduced and i'm afraid with prez dense election coming up this is probably going to be more ofa curns, but i think it is important for us to be on record and to the extent that departments do not sponsor any state that actually does that. thank you >> thank you sfr visor campus. at this time we'll have a roll call vote on item 30

and kim held a press conference in city hall to recognize equal pay. i want to thank emily [inaudible] on the kats of wem squn ruburta guise who is with the american association of university women for all their help today and their help to achieve equal pay here in san francisco. today april 14 represents how far into 2015 women must work in order to earn what men did in 2014. equal pay day is a symbol of ha far we need to go for equal pay. full time employed women on average earn 78 cents for every dollar men ern. that figure is slightly better in san francisco. i have seen it where it was 81 or 87 cents, but it is till not 100. for women of color the gap is bigger. whether folks have a

college education and work in a white or blue caller job, or have childrens women are paid less than men. studies show with personal choizing and experiences are accounted for across industries and at every level the wage gap still persists. when women are undervalued and underpaid they have a harder time making ends meet carrying for the families and sabeing for retirement. the gap hurts women and families and our economy as a whole. this resolution will declare today equal pay day in san francisco and encourage further action to close the gender pay gap. this isn't a problem somewhere else, it isn't something we can pat ourselves on the back and say san francisco solved it already because right here in our own city we still have a discrepsancy and can do better. we recognize the challenge we
6:08 pm
face and highlight what we can do to solve the problem and encourage all san francisco company squz organizations to conduct a equal pay study as the gap did and correct any disparities. we appreciate the work of the gap and appreciate the work of the ecompanies like the gap who recognize this is a issue and we'll make sure they take steps so this isn't a issue in their companies. thank you to all my cosponsors and everyone that joined us to support this resolution. colleagues, i'm back. can we take this item same house, same call without objection? this resolution is adopted unanimously. are there any imperative items >> no items >> can you please read the
