they help protect the environment and culture of our city.i'm proud that our private partners recognize the innovative and hard work they do and what they do in the city by supporting our people families, seniors and youth. today i'm pleased to announce a significant campaign that at & t is sponsored. it's called the sf summer of giving. it's an 8-week initiative and i can slip the tongue and say the summer of love because ken and i know that love is about giving. but the official time is sf summer of giving and it's an eight week8-week program that is going to help san francisco. each of these awards will be a minimum of $20,000 and more to non-profit organizations. we are going to announce each one once a week so each organization gets their week where they can celebrate. the total is over a quarter of a million of dollars of love that we are sharing through at & t's generosity. and you know, these grants are to agencies that are doing great work in our city. at a time even when we are probably considered the richest of the most unaffordabl

i think if these people broke the way in the sanctuary cities. i think much better if the republicans had shown some back bone and used the power of the purse with the president's budget. i think that was the time. because then they could have actually made it tougher for these illegal immigrants to come into the country in the first place. >> yeah but, sabrina, we have options now. we have this law in play. kate's law. this guy, by the way, who killed kate five times he was deported and then kept coming back to sanctuary cities because they give him a free pass. >> no you're absolutely right, david. it's so disturbing on so many levels. serious immigration challenges in this country. this particular story is just horrific and heart wrenching, especially for any parent out there. the question is is our federal society being undermined. a lot of oissues s issues at play here. what rich suggested this knee-jerk politics where we're rushing to pass laws that i very often feel uncomfortable with that immigration is bad and all immigrants are bad and

and the modern city is divided.s become a staging ground for former shia militias under command of the iraqi government. they have left their mark. inside there's evidence of target practice although this was once the most glorious city in the world, most iraqis don't know it. now essentially the only visitors are off-duty fighters. this man explains this was once a huge mosque. the iraqi government is trying to continue exka lagss here, and hopes to restore some of the buildings, but it doesn't have the money or staff. this is is just one of the palaces in what was once a huge city. it is considered the best preserved city of this size of its time there are parts now that are completely occupied by security forces. this capitol was built in the golden age of the islamic empire. these were baths in one of the palace complexes. water was brought in by ceramic pipes from the river and then heated. before isil the site was listed as endangered. with fighting on its doorstep, the more than 80% of the city still buried i

sanctuary cities, a lot of cities have been thrown in that technically aren't sanctuary cities cities like san francisco, who during the civil war in central america, whether or not when the united states wasn't letting in certain folks were fleeing the violence and saying, well okay, we're a sanctuary city that's what the sanctuary is about. now this has morphed into this thing like sanctuary for criminals which is not historically accurate. it's kind of a perverting of the word. in los angeles, as i stated recently, we do cooperate and kword nais nice with i.c.e. all the time and any locality should. when we find a violent criminal and we check the immigration status, if deportation can be a part of it that happens all the time and it should happen. but what we demand is there should be a judicial order if we have somebody not at that level and i.c.e. wants to have a detainer. we wanted to make sure there's a judge who says, you know there's something there. to me that is about establishing trust making sure that of that 550,000 people i said that people who are just like most ameri

cities. off their federal dollars. these state criminal alien assistance programs dollars cut them off to those cities. proportionally cut off to a state if it has a city in there that doesn't agree to stopping these sanctuary cities. you are right bill, this has to stop. how many kate steinles does there have to be before we wise up. >> two in sacramento county earlier who were gunned down. your guy in houston. we have kate. we just this week in washington state a young mother and her 3-year-old son. it is -- it's sickening. you know what? this is america. and i'm going to go back to my original question. what is the mind set of politicians who will not right this wrong? we have president who will do executive order whether you like it or not. he mean, it's an order about law abiding people. but who doesn't take the lead on, this whose spokesperson won't even address it. all right? and then you have hillary clinton who is going to be nominated from the democratic party saying, telling me she

i think the city government struggles when we set a clear priority as a city.ther it's reducing deaths and injuries on our streets through vision zero or trying to reduce the flooding by diverting more stormwater into the ground rather than the sewer system. these are shared city policy goals. and it is just -- as a legislator, when we all -- and i know my colleagues do the same thing. we deliver funding for these projects and we support these projects. strong support from the mayor's office and board of supervisors and often the voters as well. and instead of finding a way to say let's get it done, the shared goal, it's department-by department, even sections within departments, even with one mid-level person who stymies an entire project and i don't think it's acceptable. i'm not blaming you. it's a citywide systematic issue and these green infrastructure projects are so important. i don't want to have more flooding on cuyago and i want to encourage the puc to work with the other departments to clear those bureaucratic obstacles >> we will get on it, thank yo
