[applause] >> thank you again for your opening remarks. a lot of questions filtering in from reference reporters. to start, the dod has made it clear, shifting to the high end fight against adversaries. how is the air force changing to respond to the higher end threat in the less permissive air environment? >> the seven operational periods tend to be focused on that one way or the other. we demonstrate what is called a revolution in military affairs in 1991. i returned it the 10 logical revolution but others call it by other names. and included stealth, surveillance systems, and that was a part of that. we demonstrated a level of dominance against what was considered a fairly moderate military that was unprecedented. that is what we have today. we have modernized in some ways, we have built the f-22 since then. we have filled some other capabilities and we are working on addi

that is who we are. we are san francisco! we are loud. we are proud. we are hopeful. we are resilient, san francisco. let's tell them that. thank you.

we go in and say we -- here is what we -- here is half of what we gave you last week. we cannot not feed them. they claim that we make about taking food from the hungry to give to the starving israel. these people who are just hungry before it now become starving. the starving, the transition into starving or famine or whatever you want to put it in regions of the world is very real and we are already there in places like yemen and ethiopia. we have had to say we can give you one half of the food we gave you last month and next month, we can only give you a quarter of it. not only raising money but trying to divide how we can get more commodities to be able to afford that the food that we donate and convoy two countries. the other side is this soon-to-be -- sustainability action when it comes down to working with climate change. in the countries who are on emergency rations what we are trying to help them be able to grow crops on their own or grow to sustain themselves, we cannot get the seeds out of where it is coming from. it has a ripple effect that has transcended

[laughter] the truth is, we were serious and we were thoughtful and we were determined, and we every day put america first for every second of our time. [applause] i would travel the world, and sometimes people did not like that idea, that we would put america first. i would speak with a leader and they might give me a hard time with that. when i'm in bangladesh, i would say to the president, i assume you are bangladesh first. i think your people are counting on that. each of us have a responsibility. i was privileged to raise my right hand and defend this most precious document, the united states constitution and defend you against enemies foreign and mystic, and i was proud to declare that i was doing my work on your behalf.

we delivered 164 door hangers so we were sure we reached every legacy household and we sent reminder notices on april 5th. the count there, we sent it to 70 and 150 open. 42 in spanish, 18 were open. ultimately, we held the meetings on evening of the 6th and the morning, saturday morning on the 9th. we had a total of 66 attendees. and the graphic on right is just one of the information outreach documents we used. next slide, bob. >> sorry. forgot i was driving. >> yeah, well.... so, we wanted to let you know what the follow up is between april 1st and 9th and we provided information and sent out links to the legacy ffq's which is a the multiple page document where we were laying out information for people so they can reference it as needed and april 6th to the present, we've had phone discussions, e-mails and meetings with over 22 legacy residents and sending them copies of the powerpoint. sending them faq's. we sent them links to the recorded meeting. we discussed legacy ranking date because as director dunlap mentioned, there were confusion and we wanted to make sure the people con

glide, and well is several more approximate we are help it share the models we locked at. >> we want to agree a mechanism for engagement for folks with experience and try to get folks paid i bit through property. >> so now i will pass it over. thank you. why thank you,ment to talk about our framework for this program. and i believe had some folks here are will familiar with it a community based support research and tag line this encomp uses when we are talking about is nothing about us with you us. those that are impacted to be engage in the analysis effort because of their expertise and able to fuse things through that 11 and provide the strengthening our efforts. cdpr for partner shps throughout all the research phases we are starting from the beginning through the end. it is in the like traditional research folks will come in i community. dot work and go to the community after the fact. what do you think and they centers thez this have that expertise and authority. so -- they recognizes community of the unit of identity. builds on the strength and resource in a community and facil

we know in the past we have not been smiling about 4/20. in fact, it experienced a number of challenges and fortunately from the past we have learned how to adapt, how to adjust, and how to make the event a more enjoyable event not just for the people who come from all over the pay area to attend, but especially for the people who live in the surrounding community and the san franciscans commuting home from work at that time. and i want to start by saying it is a tough two years. and here we are back together again. back having great events. and in fact, this past week the giants and their home opening season happened at oracle park. yesterday for the first time in 1964, the warriors played a playoff game in san francisco, which was really exciting. and this weekend the cherry blossom festival was packed with visitors. people are coming back and covid is a challenging two years for us. what we are seeing with the number of people who are vaccinated and what we are seeing because of all the precautions that we have taken over the past two ye

so as we have the staffing, we want -- we want this facility opened as much as anybody. and i regret that we're the choke point, we're the problem in terms of getting it reopened fully. but i do think everybody's on board, they want to make sure the safety and security of this campus is what it should be as we reopen. so as i mentioned before, we have multiple training classes in progress. we typically would do three, four, five a year. we're now doing 12. i think this year we may end up doing 13. ms. herrera beutler: let me switch gears a little bit because we talked a little bit about contracted help to supplement in some of these instances. not to take over positions but to help with this process. i have seen reports that say about 3/4 of the contracted security guards can't pass basic background checks. is that -- so has that delayed the rollout? how has the department -- i mean, i got to believe there has to be a security company that's got a better system. how is that being addressed? chief manger: so when we first heard that a number -- the first group that were h

we can do it we can see we can we can we can feel the reactions of the other by watching on on their face and their body language. for business leaders or any type of leaders watching this right now. what's your guidance? what's your what would be your advice of how to motivate a team? i will tell you one thing. i think that. everyone needs to find the way to be able to motivate according to the purpose of what they want them to do, but there are two things that i would say one it is. always be offending. people they have a unique capability to understand when you don't mean what you say. and you won't be able to to hide that. so just tell them everything. the second thing it is that people have a tendency to underestimate. what they can and what they cannot do. usually they have actually tenders to think that they cannot do it. they don't know that. and you don't know that and you will be surprised if you ask them to do things that they look impossible how much close if not make it happen. they will come. did you have an aha moment of when this all was actually gonna work and what w

we know we can't do it alone. but i just want to share the perspective that i have regularly with the foreign leaders, european leaders in particular. of those are their comments. those are their thoughts. it's terrific to have them talk about the government from the state and different areas in the government stepping up in a time of crisis that the world has never seen. one of the people i spoke with recently, i spoke to the ambassador of poland and the mayor from more small recently. what they are doing is nothing short of astounding. they are just the absorption of schoolchildren. just in several weeks 20,000 children are now in school in warsaw alone. over 180,000 students from ukraine are now in school in poland right now. these are extraordinary achievements. they are strained and i know in the supplemental budgets we have given some funds but with plans for the long-term funding that we released today, whether it be areas of assistance we can continue to give countries like poland that are just doing these

we found the one we wanted.so things like that, that is on technical partnerships, but they [inaudible] think about how to test ended right before we adopted. >> do you have a -- do you all, do find one or the other model, or do you have one person that manages all your partnerships? do you have multiple -- gear like, parts it out? >> so, we've, we've attempted over the last year, my role in the organization, changed in 20 to -- the one i have now in part to help do that -- to try and help centralized some of those partnerships. but there's still distributed. i mean, i've research colleagues and archeology, especially who do all kinds of technical work through the digital archeological archive comparative slavery. so they've built the data protocols the, beckons [inaudible] for allowing sites across the southeast and the caribbean, actually, to do this. some of which are also presidential sides. so, they're not all in one place at all. we have a lot. they distributed, based [inaudible] . >> so, jean-claude, let

we have a solution and the president said we want to buy american. we want to buy american. we have energy right here. we have energy security. energy independence and it was given up through a failed strategy i want to be clear, i'm not in any way saying solar, wind, geothermal. all of the implacable read every single one but no is not an energy strategy. and look at what we're doing to this country. this is a disaster and it shouldn't be a partisan fight but we can't continue to sit around here and talk about things that are completely illogical, irrational and are causing the impact to the american people we're seeing today class i'd like to thank the gentleman from louisiana. to introduce our witnesses but we will be going into recess at some point because we're going to take a vote on banning oil and gas exports from russia. i know you may want to correct your remarks when you say we're dealing with putin on oil and gas because we're going to ban oil and gas. so i want to welcome our witnesses today. we have an outstanding panel. doctor william's unlucky is a professor

how do we leverage what we know? one technology and in the homes, for example, you know, we saw that learning management system lms's becoming more or less ubiquitous around the us the question was how do we help school districts really leverage that kind of full understanding do we understand how to support kids? well, maybe sitting at home, but no really important thing was to look at what it did for parents parents had now viewing to the classroom. they never had before. so the question, how do you support paris? you really understand what the case of learning how they actually are learning last thing. i'll add this so much more we can talk about we have an amazing structure called the verizon innovative learning schools program bills. the head of the program is actually here in the audience. so partnership with verizon going back five years where they've spent nearly 400 million dollars in in kind and direct donation to support about 550 schools across the us in demonstrating what it's like to bring like devices

we are learning as we do this, we are in a better position to mitigate the risk of the actions we are taking we study -- we are taking vis-a-vis russia and the risks that are being created by russia's invasion of ukraine. it is not only faced in europe. it is being faced in africa and the middle east and all of us because of russia's invasion of ukraine and many of those commodity prices are global. being able to address the challenges we face not only using sanctions and controls but using institutions like the imf that we created after world war ii will be essential to keeping this coalition together, showing that we cannot only use the coalition to go after a global actor, but also using the coalition to promote prosperity in countries around the world and it will be a key piece in our efforts to demonstrate the importance of the system created and holding russia accountable for violating the norms of the system we have created. >> thank you very much. there are several issues you raised that i would like to ask you for more on. starting with the issue of hunger and energy prices,

we don't want plastic. we want less plastic. awe what you we do locally is we have the program to think disposable and work one on one to provide technical assistance to swap out the disposable food service to reusables and we have funding available to support businesses to do that so that is a way to get them off there. and i believe now is the time we will see a lot of the solutions come on the market and come on the scene. >> and is really logistics company and what we offer to restaurants is reasonable containers that they can order just like they would so we came from about a pain point that a lot of customers feel which wills a lot of waste with takeout and deliver, even transitioning from styrofoam to plastic, it is still wasteful. and to dream about reusing this one to be re-implemented and cost delivery and food takeout. we didn't have throwaway culture always. most people used to get delivered to people's homes and then the empty milk containers were put back out when fresh milk came. customers are so excited that we h

we need to be careful about what we think we know. i would add to that that what we do know from sociological research is there is a correlation. the older you are, the less educated you are, the more likely you are to support putin. the younger you were, the more urban place you live, the more education you have, the richer you are, the more likely you do not watch vladimir putin's propaganda. there is a reason that putin arrested him before this war. we did not know it at the time and now we know it. there is a reason she closed the leading independent television station. there is a reason he closed down and and twitter. those are all the sources where the second demographic gets their information. if they were doing well in the war, he would not be shutting them down. we should help to nurture those sprouts that might spark to inside russia. for those that are forced into exile, give them support for the time they will be there. putin overreached. he will probably be in power for as long as he is able. it will be very hard for them

one of the problems we have is we need to create new and different markets than we currently have. the vast majority of the material we have is low value wood. we need to work with the industry and others to help create new industries to utilize that material. in some cases we're having to pay to remove it out of the woods because it would become a fire hazard for our firefighters but also for our public visiting our national forests. so we do need to find a source to use this material. >> you agree there are times that we shouldn't be thinning large trees, for example, right? >> well, that requires a really complicated response. what we need to be looking at is the scale of the fire. we need to treat the scale of the problem at a landscape scale. while i talk about low value material, we don't want to limit ourselves about what's needed. i think we need to be realistic about the industry that we have in this country and look at how we can balance how we make that landscape healthy. >> would you be committed to sitting down with some of the other advocates who are concerned about t

how we provide patient care, how we provide support. in order to address some of the challenges that existed before, we've made significant changes. we knew that there would be state and federal officials at laguna honda this week to pay very close attention to everything that we were doing and making recommendations in order to ensure that we are first and foremost protecting the patients. making sure that they are safe. making sure that no harm comes to them and also supporting and uplifting the staff. laguna honda is a special place and, in fact, during the visit, what was seen were a number of things that we know can be corrected. someone who may not have taken off their gloves in a timely manner. signage in a needs to be posted to ensure that people are away of what they're walking into. some things that in comparison to a couple months ago are things that are not only minor but can also be so we still have a long road ahead of us. there's still work to be done. but this pandemic has demonstrated not only to the city, but to the co

we can foster if we can create a network, then we can house a strong operational foundation that grows and retains talented staff and enables them to bring their selves to work. we can provide high quality differentiated educational experiences for students to achieve their potential. if we can advocate on district levels to elevate and support special education, then we will better align our accountability and decision making. we can go on to the next slide, please: so in partnership with community advocates and networks, we have continued to advance our goals and priorities and services of our focal populations in sfusd. our focal populations are african american students, english language learners and special education students. bringing in our city partners and taking this work to the next level is paramount. we appreciate your partnership in this endeavor as you know, we have submitted a joint letter by superintendents of large urban school districts to the brass. at the state level. we're not going to stop and if we close out in ways that will have long standing impacts on our so

that is who we are. we are san francisco! we are loud. we are proud. we are hopeful. we are resilient, san francisco. let's tell them that. thank you. [applause]. [♪♪♪] >> i really believe that art should be available to people for free, and it should be part of our world, you shouldn't just be something in museums, and i love that the people can just go there and it is there for everyone. [♪♪♪] >> i would say i am a multidimensional artist. i came out of painting, but have also really enjoyed tactile properties of artwork and tile work. i always have an interest in public art. i really believe that art should be available to people for free, and it should be part of our world. you shouldn't just be something in museums. i love that people can just go there, and it is there for everyone. public art is art with a job to do. it is a place where the architecture meets the public. where the artist takes the meaning of the site, and gives a voice to its. we commission culture, murals, mosaics, black pieces, cut to mental, different types of material. it is not just downtow

we defeated the germans at stalingrad we defeated napoleon we defeated the swedes.ltava it is absolutely certain that all these fighting people, many of whom are on close acquaintance. they would seem to them not just strange, but completely alien in fact , they still say, we well, something has changed. yes no here is mrs. edelman give an interview to a correspondent, a tv presenter of ukrainian television to call for the bandera slogan glory to ukraine answers with the end of this bandera long a hero. glory to our air, we will smelt glory to ukraine hero of glory, now mrs. edelman lives in portugal , but at the time when she taught and even received the title of honored teacher. can you imagine how much garbage and lies. and she managed to put frauds in the heads of children in the head, and students and this is an isolated case. not at all. there are a lot of them in a huge number of educational institutions. all over the country for example, what does the teacher teach eighth grade students in the city of penza here listen, russia was not allowed to compete. her

we can't, we can just get out of the way. we need to lead.and thank you for looking beyond our borders, leadership international standard setting will allow the u.s. to shape 5g policies that benefit american companies and consumers. not bolstered a deployment efforts of our adversaries. miss stancavage and miss brown, both of your organizations have been very active in standard setting bodies around the world. can, how can u.s. participation in international regulatorily processes we improve to help us take the lead in expanded spectrum for 5g and going to 60? >> thank you for the question, congressman walberg. so i want to first to differentiate between two types of standards bodies. for instance, 3g ppe's industry led, the intel representatives there, we are very active there and and others, wi-fi alliance, etc. those are industry led. and we look at those, we send our technical experts. the ones for doing the technical innovation in the ones who are have the expertise in wireless networks and sort of how to best increase the technical cap

so, we want to interdict where possible, we want to intervene where we can.t we want to do is let families know that we want to be their shoulder to shoulder with them, as they try to address these crises, especially for children. >> thank, you i have time for one more, mister secretary. since 2015 i have used on a bipartisan bill to work on access to disposable wound therapy for patients receiving health care. in 2015, we successfully created a new medicare benefit to this effect. unfortunately, the way this benefit was implemented makes it extremely difficult for patients to access this technology. to fix this, mr. mullen and i introduced -- would you be so kind to commit to work with us on this proposal, so that it can make it to the presidents desk before the end of this congress? >> you have my commitment, congressman, to work with you to see where we can go with the legislation. >> thank you, secretary becerra. i yield back. >> gentleman yields back. chair is pleased to recognize the gentleman from michigan, mr. upton, for your five minutes to question.

and we will do what we can to help the ukrainians. reporter: people are saying that the united states forget them. and how much the ukraine situation impacts afghanistan. sec. kirby: there is a lot there. it is not up to the department of the defense to talk about recognizing the tele-been government. -- taliban government. we have not forgotten the people of afghanistan. the state department is working very hard to continue to work with nongovernment agencies as well as the taliban to continue to get people out of afghanistan. that effort continues. there is not a defense department role in that, but we are clearly in support of that. reporter: [indiscernible] sec. kirby: i do not have an exact start date. the whole idea of this was for us to use it. i would expect we still have an interest in using this capability. reporter: about this meeting, one of the goals is ensuring [indiscernible] are we talking about postaward type of security for ukraine and -- are we talking about post war type of security for ukraine? sec. kirby: yes, po

we have to make sure we keep our voting rights, that we keep our voice and that we have fair access to the voting booth and that the system stays there. >> i wholeheartedly support getting rid of the filibuster to be able to protect our voting rights and passing legislation that is currently in the senate to make that happen . but again, we need to be honest about where we are. we're not living in normal times and though congressman has been in washington 20 years he still seems to think it's business as usual. it is not. wehave a supreme court willing to strip away our rights and we have to take aggressive action . i was so happy like so many others across the country, especially being a black woman in the legal profession to see that ketanji brown jackson didsuch a great job and i hope she is duly confirmed but it will not be enough . we do not have an institution of government that respects and reflects what we stand for as a country and we have to be bold. that is why we have to recalibrate the supreme court's . there's historic resident and i would be his supportive of moving in t

>> if we have a motion and we need to have a vote. >> president: we do. okay.there's a motion by commissioner heldfond, seconded by commissioner bridges, i believe we can take that same call. >> perhaps then this document should be edited to replace mr. coper's name. the case on the committee opposed to the liaison. just pointing that out. >> president: okay. duly. >> secretary: agenda item 19, discussion item. executive director's report. >> commissioners, really short. i'm pleased to announce that we have appointed sharon bourdain to the chief operating position in the department. this is part of the realignment or reorganization of the leadership at the top of the organization as a result of the ceo and ciopositions being merged. she has been invaluable to the before i finally come to work here with the retirement system over eight years ago. so i believe this is an important position. i'm grateful that she's willing to take on the additional responsibilities, but i wanted to make sure that i publicly announce that. also, it's that time of year, we have apri

we do that by design. the next chapter of the collaboration. >> and those are the most examples of the most organic elements microsoft detected this coming at a moment of transition meant for the us. >> that you been waiting around for more than a year with lessons learned. >> . >> and it was very soon after. those lessons were taken so if you look at the executive order 104.2 that was published with the grandstand of activities to say these are the lessons learned of the previous experience to have as mandatory features a variety of things. and then practices on top of that to allow us to better defend the systems and the technology modernization fund. and then to be applied across technology within the federal government and then you see people began to reconsider then what is the nature but nobody was defending the entire supply chain. what is the nature and company say i want to have a collaboration and we can have discovered together but we would not have seen alone. i will not wait for the lightning

we are in the middle of the first stage. we know today. i would like to know to note it more efficiently. there is a very special pin that asher -- nasa astronauts where that is gold and designed by the original mercury seven area -- seven. recently there has been no internationally recognized pin. none of the other four space agencies nor the chinese have a symbol that people wearing civilian clothes for commemorating they are astronauts. a little while ago the association of space explorers that encompasses members from 38 different cup -- countries decided to commission such a pen. i happen to have three of them in my hand. tom, can you write about for me? what i pin these on, i think the numbers will be 582, 500 83, and 584 respectively for them. i hope they will wear these with the pride they deserve. i will legendary say something while i pin his, etc.. >> words do not describe it. i am thrilled and honored to be up here. thanks to spacex, a phenomenal ride. no pun intended, but out of this world. thanks to acxiom for making this a d

and so what we did was we put together a program called. how did we get here? and i invited a scholar who i have a lot of respect for hassan kwame jeffries from ohio state came in and did a history of race relations in african-american experiences for us and then we did a pedagogical session on. okay. now you've heard this history. how do you take this into your class and teach it and we provided a lesson plan and some some approaches for teachers to take back to their classrooms. it was it was so popular that i intended originally as a one-off right? we're going to do this, you know this and then it was it was so popular that now it's a monthly program we take on an issue. so for instance last month again you talk about president right where things just last month. we did one on the history of us foreign policy. which is a little bit in the news right now, and so and how you know helping teachers. how do you approach these questions that students are coming with from a historical, you know point of view and and how has that issue evolved in our history? yeah,

we have our set of rules in place that we have that we want them to follow and live up to.ave our set of expectations that we want them to achieve. this is like my first year officially working with kids. and definitely i've had moments where they're not getting something. they don't really understand it and you're trying to just talk to them in a way that they can make it work teaching them in different ways how they can get the light bulb to go off and i've seen it first-hand and it makes me so happy when it does go off because it's like, wow, i helped them understand this concept. >> i love playing games and i love having fun with my friends playing dodge ball and a lot of things that i like. it's really cool. >> they don't give you a lot of cheese to put on there, do they? you've got like a little bit left. >> we learn programming to make them work. we do computers and programming. at the bottom here, we talk to them and we press these buttons to make it go. and this is to turn it off. and this is to make it control on its own. if you press this twice, it can do any typ

we talk every day. we are no terrorists. we cannot threaten anyone.emy who came to our land that we will respond very strongly. we inform our partners as much as we can about how sanctions are working and which sanctions are not working. we don't understand how you can make money out of blood. unfortunately, this is what some countries have been doing, european countries. i believe that the issue of oil, which allows russia to make $1 billion a day, you're right, i believe it's a key issue. i think our pressure will bring about an oil embargo. together with us, our pressure and our power, the united states and great britain should work here, too. and that's what they've been doing. we have questions about european states. some european states, we have questions about. some are open friends and partners, and they understand that times have changed. the question now is not about business or money, which can allow you to live well. the question now is simply about life, about survival. for example, and i'd like us to be frank, after all, for example, the

system d understand why we are where we are? what are things we do in the book that long running race the moment we are in deeply a historical aspect lots look back 150 years. the way in which technological innovations over time. go back to the telegraph the origins of the telecommunications infrastructure. we look at this in historical perspective we understand it combines a free market orientation we had extraordinary innovation in the private sector often with government support and investment to be clear. and you get all these benefits that appear in society. and then you begin to get some awareness of the harms. often those harms have to do with market power but sometimes they have unfold by the dominance in the telegraph system, given the need to basically lay down extensive infrastructure basically produces something that enables us to communicates across states single company and control but same thing plays out the railroads and the ability to use that infrastructure to maintain that control. and how did they maintain t
