and many of our colleagues at the network which i totally support, and the bilingual and multi lingual city is a value to everyone, not just to english learners but to the whole city. i wanted to also acknowledge that one half of san francisco residents speak a language other than english at home. i think more of our departments need to really see language access as a priority. when we held hearings in 2009 with president chiu, we found that the tiers of the language access ordinance didn't really make sense. so i'm really glad that this is pulling everyone up to quality and standards so that we have language access more strongly supported throughout all the departments in the city. i'm very proud that my three member staff can speak cantonese, spanish, french, chinese and many other languages as well. but i'm hoping that as we look at our city's departments and strengthening with this language access that we'll see much move of an improvement in other departments. as we move toward being a multi lingal city, thank you so much to supervisor's tang and three for linging this forward >> thank
