hayden: thank you for that. the surplus books program is a very effective way to provide brand-new books and materials that are selected by congressional offices to send to, and particular, libraries, schools, and other entities that provide literacy services in cases of emergencies, especially hurricanes. have been doing that for a number of hurricanes and fires and things like that when the collections in a local community are destroyed or not available. we have been working with congressional offices to make sure even during this time that we make it easier for staff members to work with communities and specify what types of books, what types of materials they could use, and we see that as a program we have been able to talk about during virtual town halls this past year with members. we mentioned the surplus books program. if i may, libraries in general consider their mobile services as extensions. that is part of it. thank you for mentioning that. sen. heinrich: thank you for your focus on that. dr. swagel,

newshour weekend's ivette feliciano spoke with historians, including carla hayden, the first woman and first african american librarian of congress, about this project. >> four score and seven years ago... >> reporter: abraham lincoln's gettysburg address, the papers of clara barton and benjamin franklin-- those are just a snapshot of the 171 million historical items preserved at the library of congress and available for study, both online and onsite in washington, d.c. >> yesterday, december 7, 1941: a date which will live in infamy. >> but there are more stories and more histories of groups that have been underrepresented in american history. >> reporter: carla hayden is the librarian of congress and would like to see a change in what resides in the annals of history. >> what we'd like to encourage everyone to think about is the fact that they have stories of value. >> reporter: that is why the l.o.c. is inviting archivists from underrepresented communies of color to add to the national archive and offer fresh perspectives on the library's existing resources. announced in january, th

before the pandemic, we took you inside america's library with carla hayden, the librarian of congress who says no matter what's happening, the mission remains the same -- to serve the community. it's so nice to be here. this is touch a beautiful space. thanks for talking with me. carla: and thank you because this is the nation's library and it represents what libraries do throughout the country and communities, on campuses. soledad: as laibraries changed dramatically? i mean, when i was a kid, i think libraries were thought of as a very special and important. and in those m special and important and in different ways. there are libraries that have sections called beyond books where you can check out a sewing machine. you can check out tools. soledad: out of the library? carla: out of the library. the number one thing that people are going into public libraries for now is information about health. and so they're relevant in different ways. soledad: you are the first woman to be the librarian of congress and when you think about the number of women who are in the field, that's a bit of

hayden miller.on the director's report i wanted to talk about what happened in golden gate park. putting in signs. it seems like we know motorists don't care about signs on the ground. i saw a photo the other day of a truck parked in a bike lane, it is painted green, no matter how much we do with paint and signs and plastic posts, it is not going to make a major difference at the end of the day. this is why we need to move past using the plastic post. it is great for short term get it in the day after. we have to go beyond that and move past that to make a difference. some is state legislation around speed enforcement. other stuff there is stuff we can do if we cannot slow the cars down through speed enforcement maybe we need a speed bump in the middle of geary boulevard like i have said before. we have to find more creative ways to address these issues. the other thing i want to talk about is shared spaces. they are fine. i like the streets closed. i volunteered on valencia. it is great. some of th

tom hayden said, when i interviewed him for this book, that he doesn't think there's been a couple years in american history where we were bombarded almost every day with an event that almost seemed impossible to comprehend. we had assassinations of beloved leaders or at least controversial leaders that would live in history. we had a war that was dividing the country. there was more racial violence in america than there had ever been since reconstruction and worse in many different ways. yet it was also a time when there was great literature being written, great music was being composed. the mets won the world series, which for those of a certain age will understand this was about as miraculous as things could get. and then there was the great day that a man first walked on the moon. on that day, when that happened, at spawn ranch, the women of the manson family were doing what they always did every day. charles manson had told the women that their role as dictated by the bible, as dictated by the beetles, as dictated by him was that they must be subservient to men at all times. so all

well, now we know it's either hayden or dyley. look, this is a beautiful thing. product of our love. it is a product of our love, right? yes, dylan, i did the math. last time we did the math, we accidentally left a $300 tip. oh, i don't know what to do. -(sighs) -how about this? haley gwendolyn dunphy... will you marry me? are you kidding me right now? picture us walking down the aisle, a breathtaking vision in virginal white and you wearing whatever you want. -i'm not marrying you! -okay. okay, one step at a time. we'll put you on vitamins and a healthy diet. you'll be eating for one now.

i wanted to echo kat and hayden with the temporary transit lanes. i'm a big supporter of these transit lanes and i hope that the ones that are working, the ones that you, you know, bringing transit savings up to 20% faster, and that the buses get made permanent. that being said, looking at the map, i see a lot of lanes that won't be piloted until 2026, and i want to remind the board and director tumlin that we're facing a climate disaster and we only have so many years to really reverse trends. and, you know, most emissions, greenhouse gas emissions in san francisco, come from private automobiles. so if we can get people out of private automobiles to transit, you know, one way to do that is these transit lanes. so i think that we have to tackle these lanes with urgency and they are temporary, so if for some reason they don't work in the way that actually increases transit use or transit travel times, then, of course, they can be easily be removed. so i don't understand why it will take to 2026 to pilot some of these. ultimately, you know, we're faci

situation where you help them to be able to essentially make vaccines themselves from al-jazeera particle hayden in washington. well the biden ministration has been under increasing pressure to take these steps especially after thursday the state department spokesperson asked about sending aid to india said that they were focusing on vaccinating americans that was their priority but now we know that they are going to send some supplies we know this because the white house put out a statement reading out a call between the national security advisor jake sullivan in his counterpart now keep in mind there is a ban in the united states for acts already in any sort of ingredient that goes into making these coated vaccines so this statement is very carefully worded it says that they have found a source they have found a supply source for helping to make that vaccine it doesn't say that it's u.s. based or where it's from but it goes on to list a couple of other things like you mentioned that they'll be sending in such as personal protective gear testing kits they're going to send some therapeutics of m

and she was a curator at the hayden planetarium and then she was also a curator at the berkeley museum of anthropology. and so i'm very fascinated by her. and another one is catherine barrett who she traveled in the himalaya with her husband robert barrett. who was a geographer and in patagonia and then she wrote but first before that she wrote books for children and and then the two of them, i mean she had beautiful writer which i guess that's one reason. i liked her but they went her and her husband went to tenerife and they stayed in a canvas tent for a few months while they wrote this book about traveling in the himalayas. wow. that's she's fascinating and then what one of the late another lady i learned about from your book is at least boastemen who has beautiful paintings under the sea, and i would really like to learn more more about her too. i would too i would too. i just read that her great great grandson a bunch of her diary of oh, yeah. she i love the fact that she brought she did these spectacular pictures, especially of bioluminesce and fish. yeah. she was amazing. i woul

hayden miller. on the consent calendar, two items. first, 10.4, i think eliminating these waivers are good. we shouldn't be subsidizing these tows for people's bad behavior at the expense of transit riders who depend on the sfmtas service. the second thing i want to talk about is item 10.5. i don't even know what to say. the central subway has to be the biggest disaster on top of all the other m.t.a. disaster projects. how are we -- we just keep pushing back and pushing back the date. it now says that the service should commence by late summer 2022. the last thing in november, it said oh, yeah, you know, early summer, spring 2022. every six months, it pushes back. when is the public going to get a date of when this opened? i talked about this last december when there was, like, another program, like, a safety project at the agency. this is a culture of fear. nobody says anything. when they see stuff is wrong. this is why the ballot is all messed up in the other tunnel. it's why the other tunnel was shutdown. it's a sign of the m.t.a.

hayden miller. just wanted to talk about a few things on the director's report. first, i would encourage you guys to look back at the recording of the youth commission meeting that happened last night where the youth commission voted all but one commissioner to support the continued closure. but they had good points about how we can make the park more accessible for people who live far away and for people with disabilities to keep the space that is safe for kids, you know, to be out there, learning how to ride a bike and not having to stress about all the cars that are going to run them over. school reopening, i think it's great there have been investments but if you thought schools were reopening last august, it would have been really underprepared. i hope there's more preparation this coming august so we are actually prepared and that a lot more service is brought back. it is ridiculous we have a 29 line running every 10 minutes but stops every single block along sunset. it doesn't need to stop every single block. we need to make quick changes. it is great if a

great to have you, hayden, please come back. >> thanks, liz. liz there is more good jobs news for the u.s. economy. february jolts, the labor turnover number that comes out? it spiked to a two-year high led by industries that were hit hardest by the pandemic. the number of available positions increased to 7.4 million, that is the highest since january ofofof 2of by he w tay, whi,s twahis alsss firstfiiob ope hav thdemic.mlion esi befsire d thedss to the nal monanetna fund -- j liftts gbalhhas fo castre fca 2021 from 5% to 6% citing, of course, aggressive stimulus spending by the u.s. and other nations but also the rollout of covid-19 vaccines. and, again, i remind you in about 35 minutes we're going to a hear from president biden about this. now, which sectors are in the sweet spot? and remember, consumer discretionary, stuff you don't have to buy. it's not like food, but it's tough you don't have to buy. so that's done beautifully. and the tech sector has seen a major runup. ishares global etf has seen 69% gains over just the past year. that,

hayden let's go. we will always say this go. we always will who can and. you have to you help those who every day because you don't go and shoot a whole bunch of shots like get people to understand today on my brother will always say you would never be able to compete who must be because you get to watch the stalls we watch michael was made it was what everybody who every day. you know if you can take. you indicated that george lee was also interested in football had a passion for football is there a yes there will he play catch with you he will play games with it this is funny you always thought that my brother could fall but he never attended to throw the ball to me he will always throw it at an angle have to go chase it in jump forward . and i came up to him one day i said when i say i see why you play tight needless to say you came through all that oh and he was like i don't want to talk about to you because about to throw it to you you would never understand that you have to go get the ball he stated the ball should never come to the shot we used to.

expanding the country's supreme court by 4 justices the aim is to end the conservative majority at equal hayden is at the court in washington d.c. . democratic lawmakers are now 3 right now that they want to put a bill on the floor that would expand the supreme court just currently 9 members to 13 now there's nothing in the constitution that says they can't do that congress has the ability the problem is not all democrats are in favor of this proposal and they need to get at least 10 republicans in the senate to agree and that seems highly unlikely to happen even more so the house speaker democrat nancy pelosi said she's not going to put this bill to the floor the court comes down with decision is destructive to a woman's right to choose as they come down with decision is destructive to the climate as they come down with the condition decision is destructive of civil liberties i believe that speaker pelosi and others will. come along well this bill seems unlikely to pass the issue is not over president joe biden has announced a commission to study the supreme court everything from whether it sh

it's not hayden miller. it's hard to address the entire future of transit in two minutes, but i will try. on this issue, i will ask first, why was there no review of the mtacac in advance? why was there no general public outreach in this on its complexities, and why was the board given no preview in the last meeting where you can take action before the deadline? all of those things should have happened, could happen in the future. i don't understand this plan with its significant neighborhood and policy issues, but i'm getting up to speed with what i've read, and what julie discussed. i appreciate the many challenges that julie spoke to. regardless of anything else, let's just be clear, diesel sucks. not good for the world, not good for people. diesel sucks. i agree with director heminger. cities focus on trucks because trucks last, and not on buses, so we always lose in terms of timing and technology. i also agree that trolley options are great.

steve: how old is hayden. >> 5 years old. steve: hayden is paying for it.ecause you work three jobs? brian: senator manchin says i'm not going along with it. 50 you can't do anything without the vice president. how do you think this is going to be paid for? well, they are going to be hiking taxes, especially the corporate tax from 28 to 21. >> ainsley: 21 to 28. brian bruin it's at 21. it's going to go up to 28. they surveyed and they said had -- they said hiking the corporate tax 28% from 21% would have moderately very significant adverse effect on competitiveness. 71 percent said it would hurt their ability to hire employ yeses, of course it would. it goes above the eu and goes above china. i thought we were trying to compete here. says he doesn't want to do the gas tax and what the senator said and the republican said is do you know what you are saying to us, president biden, our signature issue and accomplishment in 2017 was the years of putting together tax reform. we finally pulled it off. and now you want to just throw it on its head and you think it

hayden miller. wanted to talk about two things today. the first thing is public rest rooms in the transit center. it's very frustrating as a passenger to try and find out what rest rooms are open, especially right now. before it used to be that all the rest rooms would be open, but now, i don't know if there is a set schedule, make on the weekends it's different, but sometimes the restrooms on the bus deck are open, sometimes they're closed, sometimes one of the rest rooms in the park is open, sometimes they're closed. and you have to go down to the bus deck and it's confusing. so if -- preferably all the rest rooms would be open all the time, but if that's not possible, if there was a clear schedule that said when they were and not opened, would be appreciated. it's confusing right now. the second thing is transferring between muni to ac transit. as someone who gets off muni to the transit bus, it's frustrating that the all the muni buses sit on beale street for 5-10 minutes before turning into the transit center and it takes away from

hello again board members -- or no, there's still one more item hayden miller.i wanted to express my strong support for this item as well. it's really going to have a huge impact on speeding up the 28, which was in my experience one of the slowest and the most congested lines prior to the covid-19 full pandemic. and something that is great about this lane is that it really -- not only does it provide benefit to the 28, but it's going to also improve the experience for all of the riders of golden gate transit along lombard street as well as the presidio shuttle between downtown and the presidio, improving people's trips and providing more access to open space in the city. and the other thing about this is that there's going to be a lot of people who are going to say this is anti-family, but the fact of the matter is that it's an h.o.v. lane. so people who have multiple -- or multiple people in their cars can also use this and so it's going to encourage car pooling which will also help further reduce congestion so it's going to really benefit everybody. and, you k
