Would account for these hours by assigning straight time for those times. The holiday time was clearly not in the rate negotiated. We purposely decided on this term, to ensure that only Security Officers at that site would receive the holiday pay on the days that the city buildings were closed. Sorry, i am confused what you said. Let me explain a little further. So in this type of contract, you have a billing rate. A rate per hour that you are charged for Security Officers services. The holiday pay required by the ordinance was not paid in the billing rate accounted for the total hours in the contract. We accounted for straighttime hours for the guards for those 11 days.

Procurement side from Small Businesses. And i do want you to note that actually the mayor has asked naomi kelly in the office of Contract Administration excuse me, not office of Contract Administration, office of contract management division.

From the right wing. So what are you saying im willing to do anything. I want to see peace. Then do it, sir. Say it. Do it, say it. Do you want to call them what do you want to call them . Give me a name. White supremacist s who would you like me to condemn . The proud boys, stand back and stand by, but ill tell you what. Somebodys got to do something about antifa and the left. This is not a rightwing problem. This is a left wing his own fbi director said this is a left wing problem. Antifa is an idea, not an organization. Youve got to be kidding. Okay. Thats what his fbi director said. Were done, sir. Joe biden had not just the moral high ground there, but the facts on his side. And just in the last hour, donald trump sought to put the tooth paste back in the tube by telling the proud boys to, quote, stand down and let Law Enforcement do its job. Now, think about that. He said that as though Law Enforcements job wouldnt include policing white extremism. This comes after Donald Trumps
Wanted to start this show this week for the growing demand for justice for Breonna Taylor. Demonstrators took to the streets of louisville again yesterday to protest a grand jurys decision to indict just one of the three officers involved in the killing of breonna with wanton endangerment for recklessly shooting into a neighbors home, but not for killing breonna. Now, before her name became a rallying cry and before Police Officers kicked in her door, Breonna Taylor or bre as she was noun was a proud emergency room technician. Austin even donned her nieces emt jacket while reading the statement you just heard written by breonnas mother for whom the unimaginable trauma of losing her daughter was understandably too much to bear. Breonna had dreams of becoming a nurse and buying a house and having a child with her boyfriend, kenneth walker. They had already picked out a name and walker had purchased an Engagement Ring and planned to propose. Breonna tweeted in november that 2020 would be
