san francisco. when we advocates come here, we hear you supervisors talk on subjects that are far removed from represents our infants, our children, our youth, our young adults, our seniors, those with compromised health, those who are physically and mentally challenged. all supervisors mandatory have to attend to quality of life issues. you do not. you are one to take the companies like juul on, but you fail to take on rogue developers on. on the contrary, you'll accept money from them, sit in the chambers, and try to hoodwink us

on other subjects. supervisors, the time has come to have a task, a task force or a team that supervises the subjects on which you supervisors bring to the chambers and talk and talk and talk and talk. when it comes to us, the public will get only two minutes. i have 20 seconds here. you can take it on. [ cheering and applause ]. >> clerk: before the next speaker i'll just remind members in the public gallery that if you would like to show support, you have to use your supportive hands. we have a board rule if there are any audibles noises, we will interrupt the proceedings. >> i'm known as yo-yo man.

can i show you my $32 yo-yo. i was thinking how it would be good if you had a yo-yo with a city and county seal on it and give it out a samples. that would be great, city and county samples. speaking of the circles, i just went to the casino at 2:00 is the wheel of fortune auditions. i don't know what it's about. i guess it's an audition. it's the casino for the wheel of fortune. i also want to talk about the taxin in bay view. ♪ ♪ we ain't going to take it anymore no♪. i also wanted to say one last

thing. ♪ ♪ cities who need cities are the luckiest cities in the world. ♪ ♪ one city that needs another city, we love each city. ♪ cities who need cities are the luckiest cities in the world. ♪ thank you. >> clerk: sir, you are testing the president's patience. i'll just give you that reminder. audible sounds are not allowed in the chamber. if you want to show your support, use your supportive hands. >> excuse me, before the time starts, making it public comment on things not on the agenda is not fair. >> clerk: ma'am, i'm starting

your time. >> i object. thank you, supervisors, for introducing the resolution to close the camps. there was a huge march yesterday including 500 school children chanting for the children in the camps. the problem has never been immigrants crossing borders. we need to flip the story. the root cause of the border crisis is that corporations can with impunity cross borders and exploit the rich resources of our countries and their labor. destroying economic systems by underselling industries, steeling land and using the back of the military to create a constant state of intimidation. this is what has driven our brothers, sisters, children to flee for their lives and seek asylum in the u.s. our current economic system must have a labor force without rights to keep the pockets of c.e.o.s full.

isis is a rogue agency. the actions in the camps are illegal. it is time for san francisco to demand that i.c.e. leave our great city. we would need to boycott these agencies by withdrawing services to all these agencies, first and foremost, i.c.e. the next step would be for your staff to generate a list of all companies serving i.c.e. and send a letter to them explaining the resolution and our need to get i.c.e. out. the public will need this list as well so activists can advocate for our hard-working community. there have been numerous demands across the country to abolish i.c.e. let's lead the way. >> good afternoon, supervisors. in the winter of 2000 i was

elected to the restoration advisory board of the hunters point shipyard. in august 2001 i founded the radioolog radioological sub-committee. i am here in support of a petition signed by 200 members of the bayview hunters point community, many of whom are here today on behalf of restoration of the rab. i have a letter i will be submitting to you. restoration and advisory boards were instituted under the national defense authorization act. they provide an opportunity and forum for stakeholders and community members to meet in a democratic setting that upholds open government laws. in fact, the technical assistance of public participation program allows rabs to bring on consultants with regard to to toxic issues.

almost two years ago, september 2016, the navy sent a letter to the e.p.a. codifying agreement that they will not propose any further transfers at navy property at the shipyard without results of investigations that show that the property is sach. i am going to be submitting some documentation that demonstrates that there is a family living at the southwestern border of the shipyard which on bio monitoring all four members have a bio marker of steel manufacturing as well as a toxic substance and chemical concern called manganese. >> clerk: thank you. a clerk will come pick that up from you. next speaker, please. >> it feels good to be here.

i am leo smarten. i'm a long-term resident of bayview and hunters point. i am the president of the mothers and fathers committee right here with marie harrison. she taught me what i know. we're asking for a cleanup for the shipyard. i know y'all know right from wrong, so i know y'all know the shipyard is not cleaned up. we're asked for an advisory board to get back to government because it was dismembered. we wouldn't have a say. i want to be harder than what i am, but for some reason i'm not. we have people up here in bayview hunters point that are dying. i have friends that have cancer every day that are dying.

this stuff is real. it's not a game. we're not saying this just to be doing this. we do this because it's a matter of life. buildings don't come before live s. thank you. >> clerk: thank you. next speaker, please. >> i am with the bayview mothers and fathers committee and i'm speaking on behalf of the future generation that need the community, the government agencies, the city hall all to come together to protected the people, our health, and the community. we're asking for comprehensive retesting of radioactive and toxic waste at the shipyard super fund site, as well as the reinstatement of the restoration board that was disbanded by the navy. we want to add grassroots community members to the community that represents and

advocates for the bayview hunters community opinion not for lenor or your bottom dollar or the warriors, not for cash. this is for the health and well-being of children in our community, as well as fixing the pollution, the sea level, the toxins in the air that affect our well-being and quality of life. thank you for listening. please, please, look into the bayview hunters point situation. honestly, don't accept the lies and the coverups. we need proper cleanup. thank you. >> thank you, ma'am. next speaker, please. >> my name is sabrina and i'm a district 10 resident. i'm also here to speak on behalf of the shipyard cleanup. we all are aware of the coverup by lenar, the navy, the city of

san francisco, the nusom family, the pelosi family, the brown family. we are well aware of that. but i'm also here to speak on behalf of the commission of animal control welfare. given that i am a former member of the hospital, people are not aware that pets get everything we get. i have pets that have asthma. when pets and owners came in from district 10, many times missing their buses, it was transferred or diverted, their pets are suffering from arthritis. many of these pets are companion pets. when losing a person as well as a pet from toxic waste, they call this mental illness, which many of your supervisors say you are against or trying to fight for. this causes people to go into a rampage possibly in the prison and juvenile, the same thing that, mr. walton, you're trying to shut down. my concern is you're

appointing -- >> clerk: ma'am, that item is not being able to be spoken on today. >> mr. walker -- >> no, address the board as a whole. >> the same people are being appointed to the same positions when new faces and applications are being put in. i want everyone here to be aware of that someone needs to oversee you guys because what you guys are doing is illegal to the bayview. the pets need voices, we need voices. a class action lawsuit needs to be done. mr. walton, you have failed your residents. i want you to know that. >> clerk: board as a whole. >> he is not taking us aware of all of anesthesia task forces. i am tired of it. we are dying over there. we are people.

>> hello. my name is gloria barren and i am a resident of district 10. i understand the shipyard is not on today's agenda. however, as a navy veteran i was stationed on a nuclear weapons supply ship in that very same shipyard and worked as a radioman for 12 years. for the last ten years i've been advocating for the testing and cleanup of the shipyard. spending my time on this matter does not benefit me in any way financially. however, there are folks that benefit by having nothing done, building the market rate housing within and as one pregnant recent buyer at the shipyard announced at a shipyard community meeting, no disclosure to newcomers about the risk they are taking by purchasing a home there. last year, here in chambers,

there was a commendation presented for a shipyard advocate for her work on the issue. the then-president of the board of supervisors, london breed, told mrs. harrison, we will get that shipyard cleaned up. since then mrs. harrison died because she could not breathe. i would like to also point out that this affects more people in the community than the ones you see here. for example, the san francisco p.d. crime lab is still down there. they're given bottled to drink. why are they given bottled water to drink and the residents are not? also, other people who think this is not an issue that will affect you. food trucks that we often eat off of, food is prepared down there at the shipyard to this day. last but not least, i think it is an insult to have ucsf has

part of the reporting agency when they have property there along with their testing site that the public does not know about. >> clerk: thank you for your comment. next speaker, please. >> i am the director of green action for health and environmental justice. the last time -- i believe it's the last time i spoke before this body, some of the new board of supervisors were not here and i am glad you are here. in addition to sharing the concerns of many of our members of the community about the failure to insist on real tising and real cleanup and real community oversight of what's going on at the shipyard which is an outrage, the last time my friend was on the board of directors, she stood here with her oxygen tank. she begged the board of

supervisors to grant green action's appeal to deny approval of the mixed-use process. the reason was in addition to gentrification and in addition to the refusal to allow language access, that e.i.r. said significant for ever localized protrusion that could not be mitigated. the board voted for it anyhow. i hope you read the letter you received on august 28 from the bay area district. i hope you did read it. that letter told you that the approval of that project approved unacceptable air pollution for bayview hunters point. they have real concerns. i ask you respectfully, take two minutes. read the august 28 letter that the air district sent the board of supervisors. we demand and respectfully

request the board rescind its approval. because if you don't, you will go on record as the previous board did of supporting poisoning the people of bayview hunters point. it's up to you. we're going to challenge you on that. >> clerk: thank you. next speaker, please. >> since there's two of you standing there, you get two minutes and then she can speak and have her two minutes. >> she's here for support. my name is a.j. and this is naomi. we are two of the organizers for the recent process that took place yesterday in front of this office. that protest was to bring to light some of the issues that are impacting our immigrant refugee community, and in particular our demands.

many of them before you were -- are in the resolution that you all are going to be discussing. i want to thank from the top the supervisors who sponsored the bill. thank you for support. our biggest concern is that we want these concentration camps closed and we want our children freed. it's inhumane that many of us looked to the past and said never again. right now that never again is happening. we're experiencing our children who are caged in these camps and we want our people to be immediately freed and we want our children to be reunited with their parents. [yellin

[yelling]. >> clerk: close the door, mr. sheriff. >> thank you. in short, we appreciate your support. there's a lot of work that we still have to do as a coalition. once again, it's the coalition to close the camps and free our children. we support the effort. we're very happy to see many of you there yesterday. there's a lot of work there in front of us. but we're confident that we're going to put enough pressure for the current administration to shut these camps, return the children to their families, and move forward with our children. so to that regard, i just want to thank you very much. >> clerk: thank you. next speaker, please. >> good afternoon, president and

supervisors. firstly, i would like to thank the board for sponsoring item 23. i am the president of the korean american profession society, also known as kaps. it was founded during the summer of 1992 as a response to the los angeles riots. the estimates of property damage were over $1 billion. many korean immigrants lost their american dreams in one day. seeing this, koreans in the bay area wrote letters to each other to discuss a need for a network and a voice in case something similar were to break out in the bay area. given the lack of a common background, we call ourselves the korean professional society. we still have those handwritten letters from 1992 and beyond

until a.o.l. and hotmail. one of the traditional korean holidays is a place where families can pull themselves from the busy lives and give blessing to the harvest and the previous year. as a representative of kaps and a member of the korean american community, it is my american dream, as well as my community, that you support the resolution to formally represent chusak as a cultural event in san francisco. thank you for your time. >> clerk: thank you for your comments. next speaker.

>> thank you for having us. my jamaica is ji and i am a mother of two and also a korean chef. i had the pleasure of being a planning committee for the chusak festival. we didn't have any money or didn't know how many people would be there. guess how many people showed up? over 5,000 people showed up. they celebrated with their food, music, craft. it was such a fun day. i suggest that you support the resolution that supervisor stephanie has given support to. we haven't asked for many things, but we are revitalized. >> clerk: thank you for your comments. >> good afternoon, supervisors.

i'm san francisco korean american mom and this is my 4.5 son. >> clerk: can you pull the microphone closer. >> we are both residents of district 2 and we wish to speak in favor of the chusak day resolution. donald is actually the reason why this all started and we are here today. a few years ago i tried to take him to a festival to expose him to korean culture, but found out nothing of this kind exists in the bay area. i found out that korean women who are victims of domestic violence don't have equal opportunities. i thought what if we could bring

everyone today to not only celebrate and showcase korean culture, but to have bilingual community booths to allow those underserved koreans a chance to find out about free services as well. my hope was that this festival could serve as a vehicle on a regular basis to serve for many koreans who need help and support. what started out as a day to expose donald to korean culture became more. the koreans don't have a place where they know korean will be spoken. this day could be that place. granted korean chuseok day would be that day.

that would bring together a korean community that needs our help and support. >> clerk: thank you for your help and comments. >> i am not korean but chinese. i spent my formative years in the u.s. in honolulu. korean americans are the fifth-largest asian-american group in the u.s., and of the 90,000 who are san francisco resident residents, a number of them are my dearest friends, just like the mom who spoke before me who cares deeply about the elderly and those in the community who suffer under domestic abuse. chuseok day, in addition to supporting korean food and k-pop

is an event that can bring attention to the social service needs of the korean-american society in san francisco. i support this resolution, recognizing september 13 as korean chuseok day and honoring the korean center for its contributions to the korean-american society. >> hello. i am from district 6. i have been born and raised in san francisco, and this weekend has been so special for me in my community. with the huge success of the first-ever korean chuseok festival, might i add that my parents have been here for over 50 years. they pulled me aside and said they had never witnessed so many

korean americans come together at one time. that was huge. having to stay recognized would be icing on the cake for this great weekend. i am firmly in favor of this resolution and hope that you are all too. thank you for your time. >> clerk: thank you for your comments. next speaker, please. >> good afternoon, supervisors. i am a resident and mother. my child is not part of the kit program, but we are part of the

korean-american community. at their school they celebrate chuseok day every year, an important day for the school and our community and we hope that resolution 23 will be passed so that it can be celebrated more expansively. [ please stand by ]

>> thank you. next speaker, please. >> i am here to speak on supporting the resolution. i am born and raised in the u.s. and my family always celebrated a lot of the korean ceremonies and rituals -- rituals. that is because of my grandmother. we would only get together because of her, because it was a connection to our homeland. she is 100 now, and many in her generation are passing on.

we always celebrated this in our homes. without the validation of schools, without the validation of cities, so particularly with the next generation coming up, they won't have a connection to our grandparents who are from this place. it will be really great to see the city really support this. thank you. >> thank you. >> good afternoon, my name is sarah. last saturday, may 28-year-old daughter who was born and raised in the bay area, for the first time she experienced it. she brought so many of her friends and she said, mom, i have such a hard time explaining to my friends about this ritual, but it just happened right there i would like to continue this tradition where she could be proud to be korean-american as well as share her traditions to others. thank you so much for supporting this, supervisor stefani, and i

hope you will support us. thank you. >> thank you for your comments. next speaker, please. >> good afternoon, supervisors. i am a senior at lowell high school and i have been a san francisco native and i wish to speak in favor of the resolution for the past 17 years of my life , my father has worked in korean history and many korean other services. when i was younger, i never understood why he was doing this having volunteered the festival, i can understand why it's so important for him. we need to carry on their traditions, especially for those of us never had the opportunity to experience living in korea. passing the -- this resolution will help the next generation very on with korean traditions, region that leaves the country. i would like to thank the board

and recognize supervisor stefani in recognizing the solution. >> thank you. next speaker, please. >> hello, supervisors. my name is lena and i am the executive director of the korean-american community foundation of san francisco. we are a philanthropic organization. we are a very young organization , five years old, but we have just repeated approximately $1.1 million to the korean american community to address some of the vital needs that we have, including domestic violence, mental health, senior care, and youth empowerment. we have one of the highest rates of suicide amongst the korean americans, and right now, in san francisco and in the bay area, there is no domestic violence language specific service, so these are some of the issues that we are addressing as a community, but i come here today not as an executive director, but as another korean-american. i came here when i was about four years old and i was an

immigrant at that time. since then, i have grown and experience the korean-american experience in the u.s. i am one of 80,000 korean americans in the bay area, 90,000, actually, about 500,000 korean americans in california and 1.7 million korean-american people in the united states. so i come here as a korean-american requesting that you supports this day and i feel like it's not only just for the korean-american community, but really it is an opportunity to celebrate the diversity in this city, as well as the diversity in the bay area. thank you. >> thank you. next speaker, please. >> good afternoon, supervisors. mining is gordon khan and i am a san francisco native and a resident of district seven. i'm also the former board

chairman for the green center. i wish to speak in favor of the resolution, which, by the way, will not negatively impact the budget of the city. if anything, it will be another source of revenue, one thing to look at. for the past 20 years, since i moved to san francisco, i have worked to share korean culture and history through korean adoptees like myself, families that are adopted from korea, which will -- for which there are well over 100, and many non koreans in the area. it has not been easy coordinating the community. passing this resolution will not make it easier but will help the next generation not only understand the disparity in health and wealth of koreans in the area, but carry on the teaching and sharing of korean cultures and traditions in the bay area. a region that leads the community -- leads the country, if not the world in ethnic community outreach. i would like to thank the board for recognizing -- and

recognizing supervisor stefani for recognizing this solution and thinking andrew mullen. thank you. >> thank you for your comments. next speaker, please. >> hello. i run a small business in the city. i did a workshop at the event. it was amazing. his only people showed so much interest and had so much fun. at the event i said, why haven't we had this kind of day event sooner. i hope to see this korean day continue to next year. thank you so much for your support. >> thank you for your comments. next speaker, please. >> good afternoon, supervisors. i represent media in san francisco. the u.s. census bureau reports

1.7 million koreans live in america. half a million live in california. 80,000 people live in san francisco. i know by heart that is severely undercounted. the state of alaska claims that there are only 4,000 koreans living in alaska. more than half people are uncounted. i know by heart that is more. there are even more gaps in california and in san francisco. i would urge you to pass this resolution so that we can mobilize and make sure that every korean is counted. thank you. >> thank you for your comments. next speaker, please. >> good afternoon. my name is dawn. you may notice that i am not korean, nor is my wife, nor are my children, with both my

children speak fluent korean and were given a gift by the city of san francisco to receive a by literate education in korean in our city. last friday at the school, we celebrated, and every child, regardless of their race, religion, or heritage or culture , had an opportunity to celebrate this wonderful, traditional holiday, eating korean food, singing on korean songs, and as a san franciscan who celebrates our cultural diversity, of course, we support this resolution. this will spread an opportunity for other children in the city to be exposed to this rich culture and heritage. we support it. thank you. >> thank you. next speaker, please.

>> good afternoon, board board. my name is drew. i served as someone appointed to the youth commission and i serve as a chancellor. i spoke here last week, talking about my distant relative who is the first diplomat to the united states. we had the festival on september 14th, and 5,000 people came, twice the number that we had expected, and this is a first step in getting the korean community, the culture, to get interwoven with the fabric that is the diverse and beautiful fabric of san francisco. you saw here that there are many children who came to speak, or tried to speak, and as a san francisco native, i want to say that i grew up without a korean community, i grew up without

knowing anyone who was korean-american besides my family. i was surrounded by other folk and i grew up with the cherry awesome festival and the chinese new year parade, and doing this has given me an opportunity to serve the community i never knew i want to these kids to grow up, and i want these kids to look towards the future in the years to come to see the number of 5,000 to become 10,000, 20,000, 30,000, and become something that is huge and important in san francisco so that they never have to feel the same way that i did when i grew up. thank you so much, supervisor stefani, for introducing the resolution and thank you for considering this. >> thank you for your comments. and. >> good afternoon, board of supervisors, it is nice to see you guys. i know it supervisor haney is working on no cars in the

tenderloin. i do back that, but we also have to remember that we have a lot of elderly, handicapped people in san francisco and you have to allow taxis to go pick them up. the other day i saw someone getting harassed by a rideshare driver. i should have filled it and sent it to all of you guys. why can't we put cameras in the front of their vehicles? if we start enforcing the rules, the rules will not be broken. don't forget who bailed out san francisco in time of need. don't let our egos get in the way of our decisions that we will make in the future and don't, for god sake, please do not let the sfmta make anymore decisions regarding the san francisco taxicabs. they are destroying us. i will say that the taxi detail is doing a good job, that they are understand. if you go to any of the taxi stand, they are filled with cars

, then we honked, they get out and yell, then we have altercations. don't shut us out. you know how we feel. we deserve some compensation here. i believe you guys should issue us a chance for a medallion when the time comes. we have put in a lot of time, a lot of suffering. don't delay us anymore, please. please do not delay us anymore and don't come me we don't deserve it. what i do want you guys to do is do the right thing. do what san francisco is built on. people and sacrifice and humanity and love. >> thank you. next speaker, please. >> good afternoon.

san francisco is very sympathetic. [indiscernible] they grabbed our money, bought buses, and never considered us. they treated us as if we were there slaves. how many taxi medallion holders died with a heart attack? you don't know. you never helped them with money you help to your homeless. you go to people's homes, hug them, no one cares about us. rideshare is bent on destroying the taxi business. there is no doubt the taxi business has not destroyed as completely as long as rideshare exists, the taxi business can't recover.

the city projected to isolate us with 50,000 rideshare charity medallions that they have given to rideshare companies, we have become billionaires. we are any deficits. you can your rideshare but give us our money back. you can leave our medallions to cab companies. don't ingest -- inject us with a b. five. we do not support it and it doesn't benefit to us. we never asked for it. the sfmta wants us to walk off these medallions. we did not get these medallions and charity. we paid for these medallions. we paid our whole lives and savings. we want you to approach the sfmta for our money --

>> thank you. your time is concluded, thank you. [indiscernible] >> thank you. next speaker, please. >> i appreciate mr. sherman. everything he said, i stand up for him. it is true. we are a bunch of people, like myself. i have worked for 30 years. the city promise was never, never stand up for these promises. these -- these have to be issues

this san francisco city or the m.t.a., they are not going to to ask for health, where do we have to go? i have to go with my own hands? do not put us through these situations. [indiscernible] we are a bunch of good americans we pay our dues. like me, 66 years is my age, i want to be retired. my brother, my friend,. [indiscernible] [indiscernible] this business is never coming back for us.

most of our people is over age. we cannot continue like that. i swear on my mother, i did not get even one fair. i come in here, i am really upset so much. please get to the bottom of this situation. i love you guys, i ask you guys to help. put together your minds, go check with the m.t.a. and get the money back. i love you guys. good. >> thank you for your comments. next speaker, please. >> hello, everybody. i am a cabdriver. i go around the city begging for my life.

i had a stroke and i cannot drive like before. the sfmta promised to us when we are unable to drive anymore that we can get that money back, but they don't want to take the medallion back. i don't want to get in trouble or somebody else in trouble for no reason. thank you. >> thank you for your comments. next speaker, please. >> good afternoon, supervisors. my name is david smith. i am a purchase medallion holder the one thing i wanted to bring to your attention today is that the san francisco taxi workers alliance and the medallion holders association does not speak for us. i just want you to keep that in mind and your discussions with each other and m.t.a. i understand you need to take,

you know, take input from all vested parties in the industry, and that is understandable, but do know they do not represent us one, because the taxi workers alliance has conflict of interest, at least for us. their leadership our prop k. and cab company owners or ownership. they have or have had in the past, and of course, the medallion's holder association was the group of medallion holders mostly that lobbied against us forgetting our purchased medallions. obviously we don't appreciate that. so we obviously don't want -- we want to separate ourselves from that. we have plenty of people. you know the guys here. we could bring more people if you want. if you want to hear from other people besides us. nothing against the earned medallion holders. my father is one, just to let

you know. i'm not coming out of left field with anger and hostility. this affects me in many ways. another thing i want to keep in mind is that when it comes to dealing with the medallion situation, that was still get priority to sell if we sell, if we are able to sell. by the way, no one has bottom italian in over three years. if no one has bought and it medallion, it does not exist. it is only existing by name. it is dead. and it. give us our money back and give us our nontransferable medallions as agreed to in the contract with the credit union and sfmta. >> thank you for your comments. >> good afternoon, everybody. i am here again for the same issue, the medallions, because it is not working anymore because we cannot find anybody

to work for us and there's no value left in the medallion whatsoever because uber has taken over, which is okay, but we really want you to take responsibility and get us out of that. this is nothing but a nightmare for not just the drivers, but all their families. it is a nightmare. we are really looking forward to see that. take the responsibility and get us out from there so we can just pay the money to the banks and leave something because this thing is not going to work out. you can drive free without medallion for $250,000. why are you stupid to work -- by a medallion to work for the city i wish that we would pay attention to this and say the medallion value is zero. please get us out because that thing is lost and we are suffering really badly financially and mentally and

physically. god bless you, thank you so much >> thank you for your comments. next speaker, please. >> good evening, everybody, the same issue, cabdriver. the medallions is a big burden on our shoulders. i would like to tell you that our study expense, either we drive or not. it is $2,300. the bank is fine because they paid two to $50,000, but what if the companies are charging us $1,400? will you please exempt us from those cab companies so, if you can alleviate our burden from 2,000, $21,100 so we can survive and live in the market and we still can serve the people of san francisco.

the very best as if you can buy back. if it is not possible right now, or you are still working on, or the time is going by, if you can alleviate us of our paint to exempt -- [indiscernible] that will help us a lot. i hope you will consider this option as well that we can create our independent cabs that we don't have to pay to the cab companies. that would be a great help for us. >> before you speak, are there any other members of the public would like to address the board during general public comment? this is our last speaker.

>> sorry for the delay, thank you. the overhead, please. i wanted to end last week, but i ran out of time, so supervisor brown and president yee -- overhead, please. there's one thing about a chevrolet van that is better because we can drive across the u.s.a. in your chevrolet and is the greatest land on earth. [indiscernible] >> i picked up this and then in 1974 and i drove it until 1988. around the country. it was great. the van ness -- the beach

parking lot off rose street. the overhead, we will stay with it a little bit more as a struggle. it is hard to reach back. thank you for holding the microphone. these are all 25 million-dollar chips. this was everything that was given to the tax break through the -- to the rich folks. this is a 25 billion-dollar chip they're supposed to be a raise for the federal employees but trump said no, they don't get it , we have to balance the budget. trump showed us, by taking a few million dollars away from the defence budget that he wants, he can build a rusty wall with it.
