We could find ways to address that and honestly they werent all my ideas. George walker and barbara and others were involved in developing those ideas, democrats and republicans developing those ideas in virginia. Because i believe there are bigger problems within our system and our system is not unique. I think there are problems in systems all over the country. That is why i pushed the study resolution. This was just an incremental change. We change an important piece of the Mental Health picture but the real work lies ahead. We have to reform the system and our work will be a failure unless we do. We have to use this opportunity of the study resolution to spend four years working very hard, very intensely at the virginia process.

Well i think we change what we could change this year. Polit

Basically connects low income and local residents to construction jobs and guarantees that a percentage of those jobs go to San Francisco residents. So were about ensuring Employment Opportunities for communities across San Francisco. Is there a reason why bright line defense would lobby against Community Choice aggregation . And when was this, supervisor . During the vote on the Community Choice ordinance. Im not aware of bright line itself as a organization lobbying against Community Choice aggregation.
