my name is kay walker, seiu.he west bay chapter of retirees have decided to oppose both amendments, at this point. we will do this publicly. this amendment could change, so it is not written in stone. however, here is my suggestion, in terms of being competitive with adachi, which kind of seems to be the m.o. here. if you remove the governance of the board, retirees will not fight that issue. we are bound and determined, most of us, to oppose this thing as it is now because of that item. a lot of seiu people, even though they do not come up and say this, are looking at adachi having a better deal for actives, in that there is a better sliding scale going on with contributions. this amendment does not. some of the people that are active and employed will go to adachi's amendment because of this. this is happening in seiu, a lot of infighting. you may not hear it, but you will see it eventually in the campaign unless q adopt his scheme and put that in your amendment. another point, some of us are upset about the cl

next speaker. >> supervisors, i am with seiu 1021. i was part of the team that worked to pass the legislation when it originally passed. i can tell you without hesitation, having actually sat in the room when it passed this specific provision that it was never intended to be abused in this way. to reward bad actors seems wrong. leveling the playing field is the direction to go. i also just want to know, having sat through the hearings on the original legislation, the same arguments were made by almost the same people about job loss, how this is going to hurt businesses. as history has shown, supervisor ammiano was correct. the supervisors and the mayor's office, who were willing to be courageous around the most important issue that faces america today and being a leader on the most important issue was the right thing to do. history has shown that that was the correct course. by closing the loophole today, you will show again that san francisco is the leader on health care and is willing to make sure that uninsured and those that are l

. >> i am a registered nurse and member of seiu 1021. i want to talk briefly about the young person who has asthma who has no access to an inhaler and an antibiotic to the ends up with life-threatening pneumonia in the emergency room. there really are ways for this to work, but i have to tell you -- i am outrage that someone who lives in san francisco and paste that $2 and thinks it is really going to health care -- i am outraged that someone who lives in san francisco and pays that $2 and thinks is going to health care and their argument against not going to closing the loophole is, "we swear we are not guilty of cheating, but in case we want to cheat in the future, we have to leave the loophole open." that does not make sense to me. i am in favor of this ordinance. it is unbelievable. i go to a restaurant and order lobster and they gave me a hamburger, i would be totally outraged. you are handing me a bill that says you paid for health care for someone, and then pocketed the money, and you need it as your private source for creative fi

i am the political action share for seiu local 1021 and a nonprofit worker here in san francisco. we represent workers, rn's and other health-care providers in community clinics and in general hospitals. we represent the classified nutrition workers and the school secretaries and the folks that keep your schools clean. we also represent many of the nonprofits, especially supportive housing and mental health care. this is, for us, the third year of straight cuts in a row. we see things in san francisco that we have not seen before. we see recreation programs close, parks locked up during the day, basic city services take longer. lines are longer. and because of layoffs and freezing of front-line positions. workers in both nonprofit and the public sector have given out of their paycheck over and over again to try to help close these deficits, and it has been devastating. our family programs, youth violence prevention, aid services, and supportive housing. it is exciting to think that there is other ways of dealing with the budget deficit, not just cuts. there is actually weighs, and

and then elizabeth from seiu 1021, and they will be able to share with you the real nuts and bolts. >> good afternoon, everybody. i am the executive vice president of the united educators of san francisco. as executive vice president of united educators of san francisco, we represent the teachers and classified staff who work in our early childhood education program and our k-12 program. i have seen the devastation to the schools as the education budgets have been cut. you are all weary of stories of children without teachers, of classrooms without supplies, of schools dropping programs, and paraprofessionals and teachers being laid off. although at this point, 92 teachers and 10 paraprofessionals have been recalled from layoffs just this year. we still have nearly 200 fewer key school personnel with us for next year. that is our great concern. the difficult work done by our assessor and the dedicated men and women who serve in his office have made a dent in the juggernaut that is bearing down on the schools. the $4.5 million that will go to san francisco unified school district banks
