and i don't want your officers or -- expertise at the table with you, and i don't want your officers requesting, encouraging, almost demanding that we keep this m.o.u. in place with us not supporting you at a chief of this police department or conflate that with us not caring about the officers and the fact that they do one of the hardest jobs in this city. and with that, all i want to do is encourage you to reflect on that and move forward with the best interest not solely of one or two or a group of people that may have encouraged you or propelled you into this reactionary decision, and that you listen to the voices of a lot of reason here, and we continue to hammer out something that worked for your department, for the district attorney's office, more importantly, or the residents of san francisco. thank you. there were no questions there. >> thank you, commissioner. >> president cohen: thank you very much. i'm going to skip over you, hamasaki, and go to cindy because she hasn't asked a question yet. >> vice president elias: it is a question. i think commissioner yanez and commiss

show up in office. it has been leased. san francisco is very consistently lagging near the bottom of other large metro areas in terms of the number of people coming to work. this could be due to the prevalence of remote work among our employers and the number maybe chronically slow to recover. it may also mean that san francisco office workers are more cautious during the response to the virus than in other places. nevertheless, that number of people who are physically working in downtown is really the important one for the economic and fiscal impact of the office because when they are in downtown, it is increasing the city's task space and increasing the spending that is occurring in downtown businesses that are not offices. >> pardon my interruption. i'm noting this is your five minute mark. >> i have a couple quick slides. they are also providing some data that i will share with you here on how different submarkets within the bay area have changed. it is notable that other office submarkets have a lo

so officers matter. we need to have them out in the field and as we see, we've made some progress and robberies and we hope to continue that. next category is assaults, and aggravated assaults. now i want to explain to you all that shootings are included in this category. we break out shootings because shootings are so important and such a big issue for our city. we break that out. but these numbers that you see and aggravated assault and shootings are inclusive in these numbers. so we had an increase. as you see, it increased with a couple hundred, 200 aggravated assaults. 81 is the number for 2021. this is another set of crimes where at least the public ones where deployment matters. it matters a lot. some aggravated assaults happen inside peoples' homes and businesses and we can't always get to those and try to prevent them. but the ones that happen in the public, it's really important to have officers present and deployed and visible in those communities where these are occurring. these assaults incl

officers. how is the capital a safer place to work one year later? this subcommittee is interested in hearing about how those supplemental funds are being spent and what gaps remain. on top of that, i need you to respect -- address the consequences for the safety and security of the capital -- in the fy 2022 regular appropriation is not enacted. as you all know the continuing resolution runs out on february 18 and there are those that believe that it is better -- then doing the hard work of funding the government. what are the repercussions of the legislative branch if the 2022 bel is not enacted and we are stuck with a continuing resolution at fy 2021 funding levels. i look forward to your questions of the answers i -- answers to the questions i have raised. we are thankful for your serve -- service and the staff of your organization that worked so hard to make this house run. at this point i would like to yield to my friend and colleague, if she is here, for any opening statements she would l

because you would have the buy officer, the cover officer, sur veiling officer so they were all different kinds of officers involved in this one arrest. so it's more than a few. typically five to nine and my second question you touched on it was how many buy-bust arrests have been made in the tenderloin over the last couple of years because i asked for that data and i haven't been provided that. >> i'll be direct with you i don't have the exact number but i knew the review of what i reported on tonight of a vast majority of those arrests were uniform police tenderloin officers because of the some of the things that you mentioned it can be a resource heavy operation and that is not a luxury i have with my staff. >> you saw the staffing chart and it's a concern that there's not enough staffing in tenderloin for people to be patrolling and my question is always been and i still don't have an answer is what statistics are there to show the buyback is defective deterring sales in the tenderloin and if we're talking about staffing shortages and resources, wouldn't be it wise to reallocate these

i've only got 100 police officers. and we have been also working very much -- when i came into office four years ago, we were 91% white males and we're now down to 80%. and we're working in that direction. we have personal -- we were also working in a consortium with six or seven other police departments. so testing would go through all of these different groups. now we've gone on our own and people that want to work for us, come directly to us and then we maintain really good communication with them and kind of also build them up. the final thing that i'm really excited about that hasn't started yet, we started a public safety academy in our city high school and -- but, you still have that three-year gap between 18 and 21 when they can become police officers. so we've started a police cadet program, basically an internship, where we're paying the young people to be unarmed police folks in the communities so they get to build up community trust for three years and trust with the other officers before they're given the

the presiding officer: is there objection? a senator: mr. president. the presiding officer: . the senator from florida. mr. scott: reserving the right to object. throughout his administration president biden has shown a shocking disregard for congressional authority and oversight. following his botched and deadly withdrawal from afghanistan, the biden administration has refused to provide accountability or provide answers to congress or the american people. the president shifts blame and hides from the truth. his administration demands to have close, so-called classified hearings, even though none of the material being discussed is classified information. we don't know how many americans are trapped in afghanistan. we don't know how many americans are trapped in afghanistan. biden abandoned them behind enemy -- lines. it's wrong and left no faith in president biden's ability to appoint individuals. i will not allow this nominee to move forward in an expedited manner. mr. president, therefore, i object. the presiding officer: the objection is heard. mr. merkley: mr. president.

and the cao's office. i would also like to point out with many of our systems they are closed systems, meaning they are one way, one of the examples i can give you is your voting card. your voting card is an internal system and that voting card could only be used to vote. there was some proposal at one point, not by this committee, but there was a proposal at one point that the voting card might also be used as a security card, do enter certain areas and the clerk's office was completely against that because we only want that voting card to have one dedicated purpose to make certain that the vote is secure at all times. but it's, it's also exercised with most of our electronic functions. checking and rechecking and rechecking as katherine mentioned. >> before, let me follow up with another question. we always want to make sure things are flowing on the floor and keeping things moving. you have suggestions we could do to make floor time the best time that we utilize any recommendations? >> i -- we -- >> not

can i be a good police officer? i don't know, nobody to look up to, i got to be my own role model. >> what do you think it will mean when you come across that first brown-faced little girl who sees you and sees someone who looks like her? >> oh my gosh. like -- that would be amazing. i kind of wish i would have saw them, i don't know. i probably would cry or something. >> reporter: every other sunday, tiaja makes the 2 1/2-hour drive home to see her family. the eldest of four. the siblings are tight-knit. >> i want to be a police officer, how do you feel about that? >> i think it's cool. >> this is something that i want to do, that i want to see a change in. actually, anybody being a police officer, they all should be wanting to make a change, at least for the better. >> reporter: her dad tito supports her career choice but worries about her safety. >> i love you. so i don't want nothing to happen to you. i know it's dangerous out there sometimes. just because you got on that badge, it brings problems. i've been a s

we have been the force of the members can trends for woman who serve in office, run for office, and for women voters. our mission is you have a greater understanding of a woman's relationship to american politics, to empower more women to be engaged in politics and to make sure that there is a diversity among the women who are serving and engaging in the political world. we are very clear of with our understanding that women are not monolithic. we want to make sure that there is diversity in the representation that women have. we also conduct research looking at questions like, what are woman's routes to elective office? how are they different than their male colleagues? what kind of impact women have when they serve? it is important to count, right? it is important to note where we are, the status. if you can identify the problem and start to some that problem if you can't really quantify what that problem is. the numbers are critically important. we want to know what difference does it make to have them they are. we have been doing that research for decades. focusing largely on the st

we're learning more about police officers, the police officer fatal shooting of a man in pleasant officers say they were responding to a domestic violence report on willow road when a man came out of an apartment with a weapon. ktvu reporter henry lee shows us the man who was killed had a criminal history. after standoff that lasted more than three hours pleasant and police smashed the windows where domestic violence suspect haven't hold up. within moments. that man suddenly came out of his apartment while armed with a knife. two officers opened fire as horrified onlookers watched the man died at the scene. i've learned that the man killed was 33 year old cody chavez, who has a lengthy criminal record in 2020, then santa cruz. police chief andy mills said. chavez was arrested for a hate crime after he allegedly beat a black man while screaming racial epithets. just last month, the alameda county sheriff's officer arrested chavez for violating a domestic violence restraining order. on thursday, president police lieutenant eric selassie said it was another allegation of abuse that brought of

the officer pleaded guilty. he was sentenced to 20 years for zprivg scott of civil rights, a federal charge. army officer ka reason nazario was terrified when two officers in southern virginia approached his suv with guns drawn during a traffic stop. >> what's going on? >> what's going on you're fixing to ride the license. >> the officers reported they didn't see the temporary paper tag. >> i'm honestly afraid to get out. >> he was pepper sprayed. >> get out of the car. >> he survived and is suing for a million dollars in damages. >> get out of the car now. >> one of the officers was fired but virginia's attorney general is now suing the city, alleging that police practiced discrimination against black drivers. about 50,000 of us drivers in the u.s. get stopped each and every day. that's about 20 million per year. it's the most common civilian police interaction. but it is more common for black folks. and potentially more dangerous. >> my best estimate is that a black person getting into a car is twice as likely

in office why there aren't more young people in office. well a big part of it is that it's only a small small group of people who can afford to pursue public service the legislature is filled with folks who made a lot of money in the private sector and now they're making a quasi-retirement turn towards public service. they bring a really important perspective, but it shouldn't be the only perspective right? we need more people who are maybe are from working class backgrounds who can afford to to serve in the state senate, so it's not a popular thing to say that politicians you get it pay increase right? i i know that that's not going to win a lot of votes in the next election on it for any candidate who puts that on their flyer, but it's important. it's an important conversation about our democracy is to who can actually afford to pursue public service. yeah, and i want to come back to that point in a few minutes because i think it's so important about diversifying the legislature in every dimension and what are some of the tactical ideas
