Application we could submit based on the calculation. When we receive the grant we take about 10 off for administrative cost. The remaining dollars are split between the three county ema with San Francisco receiving 88 of the funding based on the proportion of persons living with h. I. V. In the three county area. It supports Health Services for h. I. V. Positive ranging from primary care to dental, food, legal, home healthcare, transitional housing and other services. This funding represents 43 of the 37 million budget that we used to provide services for low income under insured h. I. V. Positive persons. We work with the Planning Council who was mandated to prioritize ana and to allocate. In the last several years it has been reduced as San Franciscos share of the total national h. I. V. Caseload diminishes in seven years. The greater of percentage structure or minimum annual guarantee of 225,000. They will operate a themed gift store called hello karl which is a name to the fog in San Francisco. It will include products from local artists. Hat makers and charles chocolates. The budget analyst rereviewed this list. Can we have the report, please . Yes. So the proposed resolution would approve the lease between airport and mrg with a term of seven years and guaranteed rent of 225,000 increasing each year. Over the seven year term the airport would receive at least 1. 75 million. We recommend approval of this resolution. Thank you very much. Lets take public comment. Any members of the public like to comment on item 6 . Seeing none it is closed. Supervisor mandelman. We only got one bidder here. For these leases we have been having difficulty finding bidders. We consider anything besides news stands. It is more expensive for the operators to come in and they have competition from online sales, from different retailors that way and so the Specialty Retails we have done this to get more bidders and replaced restriction on the number of leases at the airport which is eight lease max. They pick and choose which leases they would like to go for. A different variety of reasons where the Specialty Retail leases have been we have had less than the concessions with our restaurants and other retailers. Other than more outreach there arent any particular changes we could make to get more . We have been trying in terms of outreach we have our first flyers conference suppliers conferences. Really making this connection between the big operators and connecting them with local artisans and goods to be sold at the airport so encouraging business that wea way so that wn passengers come through they see the retail concepts available. It is difficult in the past especially the electronic leases for that lease we only have a couple operators like brookstone and they went out of business. We are trying to different concepts and reaching out to different people and having more partnerships available. Different ways so that we have more competition. It is definitely something in front of mind. Thank you very much. I would like to move to the board with positive recommendation without objection. Thank you very much. Any other business before us today . No other business. Great. We are adjourned. Growing up in San Francisco has been way safer than growing up other places we we have that bubble, and its still that bubble that its okay to be whatever you want to. You can let your free flag fry he fly here. As an adult with autism, im here to challenge peoples idea of what autism is. My journey is not everyones journey because every autistic child is different, but theres hope. My background has heavy roots in the bay area. I was born in san diego and adopted out to San Francisco when i was about 17 years old. I bounced around a little bit here in high school, but ive always been here in the bay. We are an inclusive preschool, which means that we cater to emp. We dont turn anyone away. We take every child regardless of race, creed, religious or ability. The most common thing i hear in my adult life is oh, you dont seem like you have autism. You seem so normal. Yeah. Thats 26 years of really, really, really hard work and i think thises that i still do. I was one of the first open adoptions for an lgbt couple. They split up when i was about four. One of them is partnered, and one of them is not, and then my biological mother, who is also a lesbian. Very queer family. Growing up in the 90s with a queer family was odd, i had the bubble to protect me, and here, i felt safe. I was bullied relatively infrequently. But i never really felt isolated or alone. I have known for virtually my entire life i was not suspended, but kindly asked to not ever bring it up again in first grade, my desire to have a sex change. The school that i went to really had no idea how to handle one. One of my parents is a little bit gender nonconforming, so they know what its about, but my parents wanted my life to be safe. When i have all the neurological issues to manage, that was just one more to add to it. I was a weird kid. I had my core group of, like, very tight, like, three friends. When we look at autism, we characterize it by, like, lack of eye contact, what i do now is when im looking away from the camera, its for my own comfort. Faces are confusing. Its a lack of mirror neurons in your brain working properly to allow you to experience empathy, to realize where somebody is coming from, or to realize that body language means that. At its core, autism is a social disorder, its a neurological disorder that people are born with, and its a big, big spectrum. It wasnt until i was a teenager that i heard autism in relation to myself, and i rejected it. I was very loud, i took up a lot of space, and it was because mostly taking up space let everybody else know where i existed in the world. I didnt like to talk to people really, and then, when i did, i overshared. I was very difficult to be around. But the friends that i have are very close. I click with our atypical kiddos than other people do. In experience, i remember when i was five years old and not wanting people to touch me because it hurt. I remember throwing chairs because i could not regulate my own emotions, and it did not mean that i was a bad kid, it meant that i couldnt cope. I grew up in a family of behavioral psychologists, and i got development cal developmental psychology from all sides. I recognize that my experience is just a very small picture of that, and not everybodys in a position to have a family thats as supportive, but theres also a community thats incredible helpful and wonderful and open and there for you in your moments of need. It was like two or three years of conversations before i was like you know what . Im just going to do this, and i went out and got my prescription for hormones and started transitioning medically, even though i had already been living as a male. I have a twoyearold. The person who im now married to is my husband for about two years, and then started gaining weight and wasnt sure, so i we went and talked with the doctor at my clinic, and he said well, testosterone is basically birth control, so theres no way you can be pregnant. I found out i was pregnant at 6. 5 months. My whole mission is to kind of normalize adults like me. I think ive finally found my calling in early intervention, which is here, kind of what we do. I think the access to irrelevant care for parents is intentionally confusing. When i did the procespective search for autism for my own child, it was confusing. We have a place where children can be children, but its very confusing. I always out myself as an adult with autism. I think its helpful when you know where can your child go. How im choosing to help is to give children that would normally not be allowed to have children in the same respect, kids that have three times as much work to do as their peers or kids who do odd things, like, beach therapy. How do speech therapy. How do you explain that to the rest of their class . I want that to be a normal experience. I was working on a certificate and kind of getting think Early Childhood credits brefore i started working here, and we did a section on transgender inclusion, inclusion, which is a big issue here in San Francisco because we attract lots of queer families, and the teacher approached me and said i dont really feel comfortable or qualified to talk about this from, like, a cisgendered straight persons perspective, would you mind talking a little bit with your own experience, and im like absolutely. So im now one of the guest speakers in that particular class at city college. I love growing up here. I love what San Francisco represents. The idea of leaving has never occurred to me. But its a place that i need to fight for to bring it back to what it used to be, to allow all of those little kids that come from really unsafe environments to move somewhere safe. What ive done with my life is work to make all of those situations better, to bring a little bit of light to all those kind of issues that were still having, hoping to expand into a little bit more of a Resource Center, and this Resource Center would be more those new parents who have gotten that diagnosis, and we want to be this one centralized place that allows parents to breathe for a second. I would love to empower from the bottom up, from the kid level, and from the top down, from the teacher level. So many things that i would love to do that are all about changing peoples minds about certain chunts, like the Transgender Community or the autistic community. I would like my daughter to know theres no wrong way to go through life. Everybody experiences pain and grief and sadness, and that all of those things are temporary. Welcome to the epic center did you know you may be eligible for a 3 thousand redefeat beating hell learn about the Stay Safe Program hi, everybody im patrick chief resigns director for the city and county of San Francisco welcome to another episode of stay safe im here with jennelle for the California Earthquake Authority shell talk about brace and bolt good to see you.

So jen i will if i want to find out more information. Earthquake brace my name is jenny lam, i currently serve on the San Francisco board of education. I believe strong education is the Strong Foundation for a strong and vibrant democracy. We in San Francisco are deeply committed to public education, yet for far too long, we have to tackle the most we have failed to tackle the most persistent issues in the school. Ensuring all our schools are providing high quality education to all students no matter what neighborhood they live in. To ensuring our teachers and educators are supported. And the importance of a Student Assignment system that encourages families to enter San Francisco Public Schools, rather than causing stress and frustration. I am a proud parent of two children who attend Public Schools. Ive dedicated my entire career, over 20 years, in working in community, in schools, with students and families. As a civil rights advocate around education policy maker, with successful nonprofit experience, i bring an important voice and experience to the San Francisco board of education. My top three goals for the School District are, first, prioritize student learning. We must make our decisions studentcentred. Including, providing Early Literacy intervention so every student is reading at grade level. Strengthen learning foundations in arts, math, science and technology. Enable teachers to innovate and provide engaging collaborative and inspiring instruction for all students. Second, invest in safe, inclusive, caring communities. Support Community Schools with more access to caring adults like counselors, nurses and social workers. Its so critical to engage our parents in their childs education experience. We must also increase before and after School Programming and give students the opportunity to continue learning in the before and after hours. Lastly, develop a Youth Mentoring Program that ensures Career Exploration and service learning. And third and last, building pathways to excellence. Expanding language learning opportunities and access to all students in San Francisco Public Schools. Ensure that all our students graduate with life skills and job readiness to prepare them for the future. Prepare every student to have access and to thrive in higher education. I believe in 100 of our students must have access to higher education. In closing, i have the confidence of parents, teachers and city leaders to bring people together and to get things done. I have the endorsement of mayor london breed, all of my colleagues on the board of education and Numerous Community organizations. Thank you for listening and your consideration and remember to vote november 5. Thank you so much for tuning in and being informed and engaged in San Francisco. I deeply appreciate your time. Im kirsten strobel. I was motivated to run over the controversy at George Washington high school. Its a detriment to the students its mandated to serve. While im relieved the murals will not be destroyed after the second vote, they still did not go far enough and continued to kick this can down the road. While it was the murals that caught my attention, its my longstanding commitment to social impact work. I began my career her in San Francisco at Legal Services for children. At l. S. T. We worked closely with families. Especially those are marginalized. Special education students. Students who are newcomers and just learning english. And students who are unjustly pushed out. There are really great people in the district that are dedicated to our students, but you shouldnt have to have a lawyer to access your basic rights. Equity is the real issue in San Francisco and that has always been the case. The School Assignment still fuels segregation. Our Transportation Service is woefully inadequate. All of the students should receive the support and services they need to thrive regardless of address. This boils down to resource allocation and we must have an honest dialogue about what that looks like. The issues our students face are not unique to urban School Districts, but i believe our ability to tackle them is. Were on the birthplace of innovation and San Francisco should serve as a model. With have a strategicpublic private partnerships we can do that. Equity, segregation and the overall assignment process. Thank you again for your time and consideration. I hope you will vote for me. Hi, im your district five supervisor vallie brown. Today, San Francisco faces serious challenges and im proud to serve you at city hall, fighting for Affordable Housing, solutions to homelessness and keeping our vibrant neighborhoods moving, clean and green. I bring a perspective and Life Experience that is unique. I lost both my parents by the time i was 14. Ive been without health insurance, been evicted and had to live in a van as a child because my mother did not have money for the next apartment. So when i work on homelessness, when i work on housing, its personal. For the last three decades ive been your neighbor and your Community Activist first. Ive seen the ups and downs, the booms and busts and watch our neighborhoods change. Sometimes for the good, and sometimes for the not so good. So i got involved from the ground up in making community better. I fought to keep our neighborhood Elementary School open. End the violence plaguing the district. My work brought me to city hall. I helped create landmark legislation. Like the first Plastic Bag Ban and clean power sf. And our neighborhood preference policy that prioritizes residents for Affordable Housing in their own neighborhood. The first farmers markets in the city and worked to make our streets safer and new protected bike lanes and muni cars. Since becoming your supervisor last year, ive written and passed 30 pieces of legislation. These were passed unanimously by working tirelessly with my deletion find creative, Progressive Solutions to the issues that matter. On housing ive identified sites for 100 Affordable Development and raised Affordable Housing requirement and new private development. I added 40 million to the budget to buy existing buildings where tenants faced eviction. And funding in housing ombudsman to mediate between tenants and landlords before eviction notices are sent. On homelessness, i worked to create the first Navigation Center for People Living in their cars. An experience i know from my youth. I worked to open the first resting place in a d5 church so our homeless neighbors can get off the streets and rest and receive food and health care and access to social workers. And im committed to bringing a youth Navigation Center to the district. And on muni, i uncovered a root cause of delays and helped end the driver shortage, bringing more trains and buses into service. I worked to add prop d to the ballot. A tax on ride shares that will see millions to funding to muni and reduce traffic. Finally, recommendation matters. With women under attack across the country, our voice and our leadership could not be more consequential. Today, only 4 out of 11 members of the board of supervisors are women, including me. And that number could go down to three. I ask you for your vote, not as a politician, but as your neighbor for the past 30 years, working to better our community for all. Im your neighborhood voice. Im the only candidate sole endorsed by the San Francisco democratic club. San francisco firefighters, San Francisco chronicle, the league of conservation voters, the lgbt democratic club, planned parenthood california action fund, the San Francisco womens political committee, united food and commercial worker 64, local 21 and many more. Weve achieved real results together, but there is so much more to do and were just getting started. Join us at www. Vote and dont forget to vote on november 5. Im ryan lamb running for district 5 supervisors supervisor of San Francisco. I emigrated to the bay area in 2003. Growing up and being educated in San Francisco convinced me how lucky we are to be living in such a beautiful place. But in this decade several issues have grown serious, such as the littering of needles on the streets, homelessness and on and on. It seems to me that our government is making many very wrong decisions that may poorly discern the true interests of district 5 residents. So much so that ive concluded that city hall is moving in the wrong direction and statistics agree with me. Im running because i am committed to solving my top three priorities for district 5. Number one is ensuring the cleanliness and safety that must be provided through the creation of jobs. Im a huge believer in Law Enforcement, holding violators accountable for unsafe, unclean and simply illegal actions. I want to propose the most intensive infrastructure Improvement Plan to ensure safety on our streets from pedestrians to all transporters. Secondly, we need to fix our affordability crisis. Im the only candidate that promises a decrease in homelessness. And lastly, we need to help local businesses to building a Strong Economy where the American Dream is attainable. I will fight against higher operating costs for businesses because those costs could be passed down to us. I will oppose adding more and more taxes or higher taxes. For me, running for the board of supervisors is also personal. I want to directly ensure that San Francisco remains a prosperous place for residents and Small Businesses in my own future and generations to come. I started my First Business in San Francisco and had my fair share in participating and proving our economic market. So i have the deepest understanding of actions that need to be completed in order to advance our public and private sectors. Finally, i need to fight against uncontested machine that has been taking advantage of lawabiding, taxpaying residents for over 40 years. In many ways, we have the most Unprecedented Campaign in this nation. If you want to change in representation, elect the most fundamentally unique candidate with the reasonable policies. A vote for me would mean a vote for the youngest muslim republican formerly homeless immigrant canada in our history. Together we strive to build the most communitybased Transparent Campaign where i can manifest true responsibility and integrity in my policies as supervisor. To sum it up, our sole mission is to improve the living experience of residents. It would be an honor to serve this district and the opportunity that is provided for me. I respectfully ask for your vote. Hi, everyone. My name is dean preston. Im running for supervisor because the status quo in city hall is not working. San francisco is the least affordable city in the entire nation, with staggering inequality. Our city is on the wrong track. District 5 deserves an independent leader with a track record of accomplishments who is ready to take on the root causes of our problem. Ive never been a city hall insider. Im a civil rights and tenant attorney. I founded the only statewide tenant group that saved rent control. I cofounded a Community Division that forced city hall more for Affordable Housing for developers. District 5 has been my home for over two decades. Ive been a renter and a homeowner in the district. I helped lead my neighborhood association. Im a former Small Business owner and everyday muni rider and Public School parent. I believe now is the time for us to take bigger, bolder and more courageous steps. Im inspired by new leaders like alexandria ocasiocortez. Ive already helped San Francisco take big steps. Most recently i wrote and passed the law that gives every tenant in San Francisco who faces eviction the right to an attorney. I was an early backer of our city, our home, the visionary ballot measure that taxes the largest corporations to tackle homelessness. My campaign is about taking bold steps. A Green New Deal for San Francisco, free Public Transit, fundamental criminal Justice Reform, a public bank to reinvest in our community and social housing to reverse displacement. We need to think and act big to meet the scale and demands of our current crisis. And while we fight big citywide, we must also fight big in our neighborhoods. Here in district 5, we need to save midtown, find a permanent space fort Homeless Youth alliance, stand up to evictions of our neighbors and build Affordable Housing, rather than just luxury condos. I have a 20year track record of getting big things done for our community. Representi representi representing tenants, championing citywide limits on chain stores to protect Small Businesses. Leading the fight to save rent control, launching californias only statewide tenants right organization, creating a hot line that has helped over 20,000 renter households and writing the only tenant right to counsel law in the state of california. These are just a few of the things im proud to have accomplished. Ive done this work with so many Amazing Community leaders. It earned me the endorse amount of the sierra club, the united educators of San Francisco, city college faculty, Affordable Housing alliance, the San Francisco young democrats, harvey milk democratic club, the latino democratic club, a march of the board of majority of the board of supervisors, and jane kim. I look forward to working with all of those leaders and you to take the bold steps we need to make San Francisco more affordable and livable. And to rethink what is possible for our city. Thank you. This is a unique moment in american and San Francisco history. There is a growing National Consensus that the criminal Justice System is broken. For the first time in 110 years, there is an open d. A. Race in San Francisco, with no incumbent. Its a historic opportunity. And im running for District Attorney because we need to seize this moment. My name is chasea. Ive dead dated my life to making sure the criminal Justice System works for everyone. Not just the rich and powerful. When i was an infant, my parents left me with a babysitter. They never came back. They drove the car in a robbery. My earliest memories are visits to my parents in prison just to give them a hug. Years of walking through steel gates taught me how broken our criminal Justice System is. Thats why i became a public defender. Where i provide equal justice for people who cant afford a lawyer. As District Attorney, ill ensure that our criminal Justice System works for all of us. Not just the wealthy and well connected. My campaign is about commonsense reforms that will make us safer. First, lets test every rape kit and respect survivors of Sexual Assault. For every reported Sexual Assault, only 5 result in arrests and fewer still are brought to court. We need to do better. Ill transform the way Law Enforcement treats survivors, create a Sexual Violence task force and guarantee that every single rape kit, new and old, gets tested. Second, we need to expand Mental Health treatment and stop using the jail as a Mental Health facility. 75 of people in San Francisco jails suffer from serious mental illness, drug addiction or both. Thats why twothirds of the people who are locked up will be arrested again within three years. We need to break that school by creating and treating the root causes of crime. Ill expand facility for Mental Health treatment and ensure that people who need to get treatment get it. Third, we need to stop trumps racist and xenophobic attacks on immigrants. Ive stood up to the attacks. I helped pioneer San Franciscos sanctuary city policy that protects immigrants. I helped launch the first ever immigration unit at the public defenders office. As your d. A. , ill protect immigrant rights and keep families together. Fourth, we need to end money bail. Money bail keeps innocent people in jail because theyre poor while wealthy people go free, even if theyre guilty and dangerous. Ive led the fight all the way to the california supreme court. As d. A. Ill ask the court to detain defendants only on danger to the community and flight risk, not on whether someone has enough money to buy their way out. Finally, we need to end racial discrimination. San franciscos Africanamerican Community is under 5 of the citys population, but over 50 of our jail population. We have the highest rate of africanamerican incarceration of any major city in the country. As d. A. , ill implement a comprehensive program to reverse this discrimination and treat every person equally. Im proud to be endorsed by a broad Cross Section of san franciscans and criminal justice leaders around the country, from Assembly Member phil tinge to five members of the board of supervisors, to elected officials around the country, boston, kim fox in chicago, to retired judges from San Francisco and beyond. And i have the support of six current or former members of the San Francisco Police Commission as well as our Public School and city College Teachers unions who know we are safer when we invest in education rather than incarceration. As your District Attorney im going to fix this broken system by treating every arrest as an opportunity for intervention. Well give victims of crime a voice. Disrupt a broken status quo that doesnt work for anybody. We have an amazing opportunity to create the kind of San Francisco we all want and deserve. Please, join me in doing that. Thank you. Hi, my name leef im running for the District Attorney of San Francisco to restore accountability to the Justice System. Whether that means Holding Accountable our city leaders for the homelessness crisis, or cracking down on the organized rings breaking into our cars by the thousands, or holding Law Enforcement accountable. Ive been passionate about these issues my entire life and it started with my mom. She was a nurse at the local Juvenile Hall where i grew and you she was one of those saints that makes the system run. She would work night shifts and come back in the morning as my sister and i would get up, telling us about the kids she was working with, the issues they were dealing with. One day when i was 8 years old, my mom came home and said its not enough to tell you about the kids, weve got bring them into our home. We took in a dozen foster kids over a decade. From the time i was 8 years old, i saw the good, bad and ugly of the criminal Justice System. I saw the impact of race, trauma, poverty, but i also saw amazing people like mom and her colleagues working inside the Justice System to make sure it was more fair and equitable. It was inspiration that took me to yale, harvard law school, to working for president obamas campaigns in 2008 and 2012, making sure that everyones voice could be heard in the political process. To clerking on the ninth circuit here in San Francisco, for the last seven years, workings a Deputy Attorney general for the state here in our San Francisco office where i prosecuteded over 400 criminal cases. Im also a supervisor of a team of prosecutors, making me the only candidate who is a prosecutor and manages a team of prosecutors on a daytoday basis. I mentioned my experience and passion for these issues, because were at an inflection point. Its the first time in 110 years we have an open seat race for District Attorney. Where all of us get to decide what sort of criminal Justice System do we want. Four of the issues ive been focused on the entire campaign are the homelessness crisis, the auto burglary, the environmental injustice at the shipyard and the scourge of Sexual Violence. The facility right now is 80 empty. The board of supervisors has voted to shut it down. Lets turn it into 150bed facility for those on the streets battling serious mental illness. Car breakins, there were 30,000 reported in 2017. Only 500 raeflts. And the d. A. Arrests. And the d. A. Office only it would be one case to trial and they lost it. Thats why im putting together a task force to work on this problem. Its the deputy Supervisors Association and Sheriffs Association and over 150 groups in the city that are concerned about that problem. Sexual violence. There were 757 reported Sexual Assaults, and yet the d. A. Office only got nine convictions after trial. Thats 1. 3 . Were committed to starting an online rape kit tracking portal so that survivors of Sexual Assault know the status of their case in realtime. Its earned me the endorsement of many. Finally, we have an environmental injustice playing out with the soil contamination saga, yet the current District Attorney disbanded our environmental unit. Im going to bring them back. We need the Environmental Justice unit to be leaders on the issue. Its that commitment that earned me endorsement from the league of conservation voters and sierra club. Its these ideas that have earned me endorsements of 150 groups, elected officials and Community Organizations from the seer club to the firefighters and the deputy sheriffs, fiona mar, leaders on the school board and the state assemble. I would be honored to earn your support. Thank you. Hi, my name is nancy. Im running to be your next District Attorney. Ive spent the last 18 years as a prosecutor, 11 of them in the San Francisco District Attorney office. Ive worked my way up as a prosecutor. Ive tried misdemeanors, felonies. And Public Integrity cases, including police misconduct, public corruption, fraud and embezzlement. When it comes to criminal justice in San Francisco we have Serious Problems we must confront. We see every day what is happening in the District Attorneys office and on our streets isnt working. Our criminal Justice System cannot continue to ignore victims and everyday crimes that affect us all. As District Attorney, i will prioritize and prosecute the crimes that have the greatest impact on our communities, like property crimes, violent assaults and the open drug dealing that is ravaging our streets. We can address these problems head on with my concept of Community Centred justice. The community is at the heart of everything we do and the District Attorneys office, and in our criminal Justice System. We will prioritize, protecting and lifting up communities. Well strengthen ties between the office and neighborhood interests, diverse constituencies, Law Enforcement and community groups. Because the first time you meet a prosecutor from the District Attorneys office shouldnt be when youre the victim of a crime. We should be collaborating to prevent crime in the first place. Today the District Attorneys office that failed to prioritize a range of serious crimes that affect our daily lives. As a result, San Francisco is, today, ranked number one for property crime in the country. That is not what criminal Justice Reform is about. Prosecuting property crimes or drug crimes can be an entry point for intervention to stop repeat offenses and as a barrier to falling deeper in the criminal Justice System at the same time, we cannot allow our neighborhoods to be devastated by people who repeatedly commit crime. I know the importance of working with other criminal justice leaders to investigate and prosecute drug and robbery rings that are victimizing people every day. Im endorsed by the District Attorney Nancy Omalley and we will Work Together to stem the tide of organized crime. As a career prosecutor who worked in this District Attorneys office for more than a decade, i know how broken the office has become. It has been weakened, demoralized, politicized and cut off from the partnerships we should be building. And the last year, over 30 of the prosecutors in the office have left out of frustration, mismanagement and neglect. The state of the District Attorneys office has impacts far beyond the office itself and im prepared to address these problems starting day one. Im inspired to serve in large part by my father. He came to the United States from a country where he lived nearly his entire life under martial law. He marvelled at our freedom and democracy. His not so secret dream was to be lawyer. His philosophy, always to give back to the country that has given so much to our family. I chose a career in Public Service as a lawyer, as a prosecutor, because of him. My name is nancy tong. Im running to be your next District Attorney. Im a prosecutor, not a politician and i will work every day to keep our streets safe and make sure victims get the help they deserve. Please, vote for me on november 5th. Thank you. Hello. I am running for mayor in the most densely populated corner of the city. Chinatown, which tourism is the income from visitors all over the world which city hall takes for granted. Most candidates bank on influential endorsements, a huge war chest, thinking that will secure getting votes. Me . I believe that the most important thing is to help People Better themselves. This is my joy fulfillment in my life. If someone asks me if you are elected as the mayor this november, what would you do first . My answer is i would waste no time to meet with Department Heads, directors of nonprofit, and most importantly, Community Leaders and grassroot organizations for their input and support. Together, we solve problems. The most pressing problems are homelessness, housing shortages, and empty store fronts all over the city.
