Im a supporter of atomic monitoring programs that i think this is very Good Alternative and i want to make sure we are [inaudible]. However this is under let you guys program that a lot of questions why we are not participating in this program. This is a program that can demonstrate to show we can maintain safety in our community and individuals are not a danger to the community. Monitor their movements to ensure a certain level of security for communities. Yet we know participation in this program averages [inaudible] from the probation office. I dont consider this an adequate or sufficient alternative due to low participation and have many questions in terms of how the program is administrator. At questions with the fact we charge the inmates to participate in this program. Theres a charge of 125 application fee and after that is 35 a day the inmates to participate in a program what weve already decided that they are safe enough to be back within the community and families. In the meantime, if we keep them in prison or in jail because they cant afford to pay the 125 fee or 35 a day we spent hundreds of dollars to get him house on our own dr. I think theres a number questions i have about how this program is incremented and so ill be voting against these two items today but i looked up a conversation with the Sheriffs Department when they come to Budget Committee in the next couple of months about how we implement better increment this project president breed thank you. Supervisor avalos supervisor avalos thank you. I have a lot of concerns about this as well. Especially, along the lines of supervisor kim and rather thanim not sure whether we approve this or not yet we often approve things like this retroactively did so not sure if its been a change anything. I would rather see if theres a way to we can continue the item and get a report from the Sheriffs Department about how they can actually utilize this program and minimize, or put no cost, one inmates. We have actually gone to all process around looking at fines and fees that keep people in the cycle of poverty, and this program seems to be doing just that as well. So, i would like to see that we can continue this item for a couple weeks and possibly book no wonder then but i like to talk to the sheriff more about it before voting on. President breed thank you.

With that, will move to local for introductions start with supervisor mar supervisor mar thank you president breed. Let me first say the item we just passed the landmark king of the 40 6p i want to thank supervisor farrell and his office for ensuring that a beautiful pine tree that was supported by so many residents on cook street from though laurel Hill Cooperative Nursery School to many of the residents is an important victory. I talk with jake reported this morning, the author of the landmark tree law was created years ago and i think its a good example of the Committee Standing up to protect the environment but especially a Beautiful Tree on that site. I want to especially thank a nasa global and her sons and many others that stood firm on that whole process. I want to also say i have a piece of legislation today that cosponsored by supervisor avalos and supervisor norman yee. As many of you know, nicwith my office with few security passports has been working on strong efforts innercity the Broad Coalition to end hunger in San Francisco by 2022 challenge Food Insecurity and hunger because we know one in four san franciscans is at risk of Food Insecurity or going to bed hungry from children, to seniors. So, this item is a supplemental security income state level piece of legislation. Their federal Program Designed to of california seniors and people disabilities of little or no income or meet their needs. The statefunded relation is called state supplemental payment or sfp good in january of 2009 ssi, sfp the grant was only 907 a month it was worth about over 100 of the federal Poverty Level for a single individual. Since then, sfp grants were repeatedly cut and a costofliving adjustments were provided at the state level. Individual grants are now worth just 90 of the federal Poverty Level. Since 2010, six years ago, for six years california has been cutting its share of the benefits it down to the federal permitted minimum and is illuminated costofliving adjustments on the state portion of the ssi, sfp grant so its pleasing hungry people even more and more. These cuts up motion more than 1 Million People, 1 million blind agent and is able to this california is below the poverty well. A significant reason why weve seen the skyrocketing of poverty to the highest in the nation of our city according to the San Francisco supplemental poverty measure. While almost every area of the state budget that funds and programs restored in recent years we have not seen that for ssisfp recipients hungry the blind and the disabled. They have not seen any restoration. California has not yet restored even one cent of these grant cuts were made during the recession. One of the populations most harmed our seniors and people with disabilities. Whether its the Fund Coalition or the supportive Home Coalition am working with, we are focused on helping people with disabilities and seniors who depend on ssior fixed income, our state supplement the payments, sfp, to keep a roof over their heads and food on the plate. Single california ssisfp recipients have incomes of 889 a month. Well below the Poverty Level and selfsufficiency standards and unlike other low income households californias 1. 3 million recipients are not eligible for food assistant. Theyre not even eligible for california fashion food stamps. They must rely entirely on this ssisfp allotment to pay for rent, food, transportation and utilities. Because of these cuts are food banks and pantries report alarming increases the number of people seeking nutritional assistance. I was within the sunset in supervisor tangs district at edgewood today observing the food pantry at the Food Bank Summer in San Francisco food bank administers and you could see that every single food pantry californias high housing costs was even Affordable Homes out of reach for many of these post. Hunger and poverty are problems of the state of california has the power to address. As californias economy continues to recover our state budget and social policies need to improve the lives of all members of our communities, especially the blind, sick and disabled and seniors and people with disabilities. Gov. Brown is proposing a budget the first increase in 10 years to the state contribution, the state supplemental payment, sfp, by offering a costofliving adjustment but pro tem sen. Pro tem, Kevin De Leon numbers of the senate propose an increase in sfp, sf i grant and there no place like home initiative. So be somebody has proposed in the ssisfp grant in each of the last two budgets. Now is the time for the legislature and the governor to Work Together to take action and a summary member cheryl brown has introduced legislation called bravo bravo for the sfp agent line and disabled. By taking these actions the governor and the legislature can reduce the number of californians living in poverty by more than 1 Million People and these recipients have the right to live in dignity, not property. I urge you along with my colleague supervisor avalos yee to support these individuals and support this effort at the state level as we also work to end hunger, poverty, and Food Insecurity in our own city.
