New york. Nine weeks to go until election day, folks. Nine weeks until today and one Week Today to what may be the only President Ial debate to transpire between donald Trump And Vice president Kamala Harris. And then, of course, the start of the socalled final sprint to election day, which finds two President Ial diameter rickly opposed, polar opposite camps. She wants to turn the page on a dark and dysfunctional past decade in politics, her campaign has been met with obama levels of enthusiasm among voters, her rallies drawing massive recordbreaking crowds, her campaign enlisting an army of volunteers, racking up endorsements from all across the political spectrum, as politico reports today, quote, the Vice President has flipped the enthusiasm gap, the Money Gap and the Polling Gap in her favor in the six weeks since she replaced president Joe Biden as the democratic nominee. Now, the other person on the menu behind Door Number two, a candidate who is unable to land on an effective l
We dont do that in america. I know. Because theres a huge distance between that kind of invasion and the stuff im talking about, which is stuff that we can control. We can control muni. We can arguably vote bart. Theres a huge difference between monitoring people on their cell phones that we do not do and will not accept in our culture and what you are recommending. Can you bring that together quickly now, sir. I would say the key issue is for us to minimize, to the extent possible, nonessential travel, including locally and we dont have a campaign to do that right now. Becausbecause what happens is tt this is so massive, so massive, that a lot of the enforcement happens from the peer pressure and they see what other people are doing. So at this moment, even for this order, we dont have a Massive Campaign yet to really, really enforce how important it is to not be out. As the chief Health Official of this town, who is not dr. Colfax, how are you relaying that to the mayor, to other off

Peskin. Ill just call you. Supervisor preston. Just one question regarding some shelters that are not 24 hours, so, for example, in my district the first friendship emergency family shelter where folks have to leave at 7 00 in the morning i know that theres other shelters that dont operate 24 hours. And im curious if theres been any effort underway under the circumstances to try to have shelters that are less than 24 hours to be a resource during the day as well . Yes. Thank you for that question. I couldnt have scripted this discussion any better. We are working on that and trying to get all shelters that are currently not open 24 hours, including first friendship, to stay open and to provide three meals a day. So thats in the process and i dont know the status of that, but thats our intention is that all shelters stay open 24 7 and theres only a few that do not and so it shouldnt be too big of a lift. Thank you. President yee okay, i think that is it. Thank you very much,. Thank you
Evictions but protecting folks from being taken advantage of during this time, and very concerned around price gouging issues and Consumer Protection and things that we have only seen the beginnings of, and particularly if this is prolonged that well see more. And i think theres a lot to do on that front as well. And then just more broadly what we have been doing, and i look forward to comparing notes with folks on whats working and whats effective is on the outreach side. So we have been calling every senior facility in district 5, all places of worship in district 5. Were moving on now to cutting lists of seniors individually and having oneonone calls with folks in the district. And i really do believe that the beauty of district representation is that were able to do that. We have a relatively manageable group of people to reach out to. So were doing that by phone and were going to also be launching Virtual Office hours and some other ways that folks can participate and meet online.
