the students and families in san francisco unified will be greatly affected. we will start out the next academic year with classrooms with without permanent teachers. these classrooms will be personed by various teachers. including substitute reachers, resource -- teachers, resource teachers, as well as sometimes administrators, as well as being divided up into small groups and parcelled out to other classrooms. the students never recover from these disasters. many of them are pulled out by the families and taken to private and charter schools. right now in san francisco, teachers are receiving a very hurtful message from you. they feel unappreciated and betrayed, and they just want to be able to plan their future without a stable salary that meets the housing needs in san francisco. they cannot stay here. budgets are statements of values. what are your values? please, please walk the talk. >> good afternoon. i'm from district eight, and i worked on baby c, and i'm glad to be here. i'm retired as a family child care provider, but i felt as though being a teach

were toddlers to 12 year olds, private, for-profit and non-profit and finally here in san francisco unified school district celebrating 30 years of working. i tend to view life and life's situations from a perspective of the children that i teach. which bodes down to equity and equality. as we are here this past celebrating the life and times of martin luther king, we think a lot about equality. so i'd like to just remind the supervisors that the eraf funds should be distributed equally, and 60, 60, and to those in more need. and also step back and say as an early childhood education teacher, educator, that the equity lives is also present which means that young children and the teachers and the educators that work with them really need to be given more consideration. we teach children and provide for them a solid foundation for the rest of their lives and promote the thirst for learning. i'd like to share with you a situation that's happened with me about a year ago. one of my peer educators in my school said to me, miss betty, i want to thank you. she said for the first time in 38 years i

the oakland unified school district is moving forward with a plan to address a lack of money for theoming school year. this as a possible teachers strike looms over the district. kron 4's charles clifford has details. the oakland unified school district says that for the 2019-2020 school year the district is facing a 21 million dollar budget to having 10,000 empty seats across the district and flat enrollment of new students.the district is currently working on a plan to balance the books. that could include closing schools, reorganizing schools, laying off administrative staff or cutting services. the superintendent of the school district was asked what it would take to fix these problems.sotwell ,i think it's many different things. we definitely need more funding from the state. the advocacy going on by many different stake holders is important. two, we have to take a look at how many kids we actually have. our hope is that in the future we have more kids coming into our school but there has to be the harsh look at how many kids we have to make sure the number of school we have mat

so it's very dangerous to play with that scenario ok paul i mean how unified is the military here because of course we had c.n.n. trotting out. a defector or someone that would start working with this illegitimate self-proclaimed interim president here i mean even even the commentary and even in the mainstream media they're egging this on how unified is the military and backing the legitimate government not this government that is trying to come to power with the backing of washington and its allies go ahead. well as with any email address i think across the world to some extent to the black box very difficult to know exactly what is going on within the military and how it is worth pointing out that all of the public information which the military has admitted in the last week or say how is that yesterday they are entirely unified behind the constitutional president nicholas miller we've seen statements released not just from the high military command at it generals but also from each on the armed forces and from the middle ranking officials and also action from the base and opposition ac

day go ahead paul i think it may get pointed out it is dangerous to talk about the opposition as a unified block we contract fed to them it with the same policy. and in general there are elements of the opposition which often i think sanctions yes they're currently in washington they're in madrid they're in brussels calling on the international powers to in fact worsen the economic situation in venezuela which is absent not but they're also adamant within the opposition who put the sanctions who want to play by the rules who are democrats who are out in the community to political work to try and win a the supporters and these are the sort of elements we saw participating in last may presidential elections the problem is as media pointed out that these the events do not have the backing of the white house and as such and have been pushed to a second level behind that if you lead by one where you know. in london i mean the mature a government has. reached out force for dialogue and it's being repeatedly rejected and it seems to me that the european union and its recent actions are. are very

oakland unified has lined up substitutes and administrators to oversee the classes during the strike. for students not going to class there are 15 recreation centers open with staffing and volunteers. some students are setting up class in their homes. >> i have my books and audiobooks organized. >> the district offered a raise of about 8.5% over four years but the union wants a raise of 12% over three years along with smaller class sizes, and more counselors and nurses. the contract expired two years ago and the district says they are facing a huge budget shortfall and parsley due to the did -- decline of student enrollment. >> the district said that during the strike classes will be consolidated and that the sports programs will be suspended other than playoff games. breakfast and lunch will be available at all of the district schools today. >>> oakland unified teachers are not alone, the third recent strike in the 50 biggest cities following los angeles and denver. teachers settled their labor issues and the teachers and west virginia right now are also picketing. almost all the sch

politically grandstand and perhaps for for a message of unity but also perhaps say everyone needs to unify behind my agenda and what i want to get done there was heard there are a couple of touch points where the two parties can come together from a foreign policy perspective we can also expect to hear definitely something about venezuela and the political situation there because the president has been such a strong backer of the interim president go i don't know possibly also something about iran but in general he is a very domestically focused president that's what he ran on that's what his base likes to hear and so we're going to have to listen and see does he try to have a message that is actually much more unifying and inclusive of the greater american society or is he just going to throw red meat to the forty percent of his base that is very consistently supportive of supporting him and that put him over the top to make him president the domestic outlook is actually very good the booming economy high levels he's played a shelter about. absolutely we've actually seen some record break

and the san francisco unified school district used to do it. i'm wondering, have you heard if there's a need for a fund maybe or some program to teach youth to drive? and then i'd love to hear about that. and then i think i just want to echo what my colleagues have said about the tay housing. yeah, considering that the money's been budgeted, what the heck, and so we'd love to follow up on that, too, because the money has already been funded, so what's taken so long, right? yeah, and i think the mayor has requested cuts up to 6%, and we will see, you know, we have very little control over the mayor's budget instructions, and it's true that the mayors and the departments get first dibs at the budget, and so i don't know what they would be actually cutting in there, but i would say that if you are -- that you may want to meet with some large departments and ask and meet with the department heads and ask them about the 6% cut and request that they make the cuts to youth and tay-specific programs. >> all right, so a lot to touch on there. firstly, w

hodgepodge of both unifying and combative. saw the results in the chamber. >> yeah, when he said, walls work, walls save lives, and when he went after what he called the ridiculous partisan investigation. >> that's right. those were obviously some of the moments. the other moment that was really remarkable was looking at a sea of white, all of these women, most of whom are newly elected to the house of representatives, just the image, in the first place, of seeing them over and over again, but then when the president starts talking about his appeal to women, talking about the jobs that he has created, 58% of new jobs created in the last year were women, the democrats who were sitting in the audience, who were some of those new jobs, but not the jobs maybe he intended, because they took the seats of republicans, kind of stole the moment from him and stood up and he had to make a joke about the fact that that wasn't exactly his intention. but then, right afterwards, he did have something that was scripted. a very nice olive bran

what's not so unifying is immigration. this is the issue that's torn up capitol hill and washington all month pretty much. we do know we had the big government shutdown, of course that was the longest shutdown in american history. the president is going to address immigration question. the question is whether he'll declare an emergency in order to get his wall on the southern border built. as you say, unity is one of the key issues. sarah sanders, the white house press secretary a little while ago on "new day" talking about the issues she says can unite the president and the congress. listen. >> certainly i think you can expect that the president will talk about infrastructure. you will hear the president talk about the opioid crisis in this country. i'm going to leave some things for the president to talk about. there are a number of policies democrats and republicans know need to be addressed. infrastructure is one of the easiest ones to look at. >> now let's talk about some of the guests that the president and first lad
