In 2010, when they did the last since. One million $500000 and these are programs that we use we depend on in the area of transportation housing education health care. This is when you get started and so incredible and it's so important.

Second initiative to bring this topic to the forefront, so really our goal is to defend democracy is at stake other battles, particularly in 2020. on our side, we started in 20. So we are here from governors. but also for ten thousand dollars It's every adult every child. And those programs are for things like sexuality and affordable housing, homelessness and housing crisis. We cannot afford to lose $1 for those programs and also our entire social safety Net. That is our snap our hips start. so think about it Think about the next decade? Need to think that if we are not content for marginalized, brothers and sisters and that they are raised from our community. We don't know that we deserve them because they are not the papers and all the databases that all our resources and to promote more programs to build more schools provide. So the background, in addition to our work is that we are, we've trained already 300 people to go out and do this work for another. The next few weeks to train and possibly come and join us, but there is a force here. Three times as many people apply for funding available to distribute these are nonprofits and schools and communities that you're all familiar with throughout. A little bit more. Good evening, I just wanna start by saying thank you so much to supervisor and all of the others, One point five million dollars and that person we wanna make sure that we are investing in those people who are trusted in the community to pass this message for to those very much. が し ま あ し に そと な た However, the initial you know a lot of our senior community access. I have a question every library. We also have a question, senior centers and other city buildings and also our local churches. Able to find 30 - nine and a lot of those are our favorite organizations and now to the table opportunities. we're able to get food and also coordinate as we so With all of our favorite organizations and it happens. The best way to incorporate it and so please come and talk about after I'd like to talk to you about party at school or House of worship and we also planned on our website, you can find going to complete the form. joining us When I was. Thoughts Frustration I've never. I've never been. So I stayed here. The voice. But it's not. We have to create. But Hello. Right now, they must be bad. But again the system and it's time for us to stand up for me. No Me Ministerio Pablo Entrepreneurs, everything everything I wake up. We're still fighting in existence, so I stay as somebody that. You are gonna make sure that we are existing in all you know you're gonna have a problem. Here. Make a wish. This is the city. Really want to make sure? How's or other person. Take it. To those who have. Give a little bit more to make sure. They deserve our children, our seniors that I think and. As a result of that we all while we are concerned about our body be successful. It is kind of sustained. The US will do some operations to reach individuals experiencing homelessness can still go to our shelters and they will go into an outdoor as well. I. The County and the state is to find gaps in the plan and do the additional outreach. so this is an area of concern. Many of you know that eight Thousand 20 - two people at least two homelessness and 40 - three percent in just the last two years. So this was not conducted any sense since 2010 and to increase their operations in order to reach those And then to the back that up with partners like the Food Bank and the East Operations Community collective centers right right here in Western to ensure that all of our clients we trust that they need more partners in that. so if you are. In our community, we need to plug in to our operation. We have incentives from local businesses life so far. Community helping us get out the word we need to to is gonna go because it's just not supported. So and also experienced can fill it out themselves apart. We started. September October last year, putting together a special. An At that time the senses. From those who are. in the camp that finally, 70 - two people with a To secure information about. We would know. It was. Other Congress people in this area. And with that the federal government that cannot. Good place for individuals that will also be. People who we're trying to do. So you feel comfortable. Neighborhood White Jeep Grand Cherokee eight 79. Let's say White people. 795 Say it has helped schools what are schools to happen. Teachers. And more school closings. Invest in the local resources. And so we're trying to fight back and that that's the state of the impact of privatizing schools, the impact that made and one of the reasons that I have. and we have Our education programs. Start to stop this terrible problems and take one back 40 percent of children are protected children in preschool. This has been what has happened. Turn Once again what solutions? And service. The solution in terms of wages. The housing yeah, Howard ability how housing. And that you make too much to qualify for low income housing, but you don't make enough to save enough to buy a House and the rent is out through the roof. So what what about the Middle class? What about us? We're work here and we can't afford to live here. I have people in my Union that drive two hours to come to work so if they take a sick day after four days. The fifth day they take a sick day in their penalizing discipline and brought up on you know so it's it's very exhausting not to be able to live where you work. Prices are working. The House. It is that people should. The policies of the city. So we have to do several things one create our thousand right now that the metal way. And yeah, it's so great that in the time now working for. So we have increased ladies first of all and we have to do we have. Of course, the waters myself, and I'm gonna just go through some couple of pieces of legislation that we're trying to make. There's a bill called pathway to the House and what that would do, of course in homelessness through investments and what we started and I started actually with 30 -. For high such as ours, but also expands housing trust. Communities can buy them and level of affordable housing, which is possible. Then we're working on a legal assistance to prevent the total population. A little bit of chairs because three times before we got to get control. Just in time in terms of wages in terms of being able to live where we work, we have to make sure that the houses. Individuals dealing with homelessness but also dealing with rental assistance and making sure that we wanna live wanna live. There's federal and local. And until we get to do that we're gonna have. And so thank you for raising that I wish I could say, but it's gonna take a lot and I have a lot of focus in terms of making sure that we address the House of the crowd. And the state of emergency that is in such as the East Bay and we have to do that. Otherwise, this community is going to be a community very well. people are people and best of America. Affordable housing and low, which is. Affordable And you're gonna be introduced into the state Legislature that would also be able to help subsidize and to support affordable and low cost and some of them. And now the camera you the voters passed seven years ago, 580 million dollars for only affordable housing. Today there's been about 330 million dollars towards affordable housing construction. And 100 percent 20. Is no. To deal with this crisis. Show up. And they're building new construction that it is affordable and they came to the law. Over the market. There at the Council to insist that they do that they will continue to have market rate housing. And at the city Council says, don't do that. We want our work force. Program anybody, but we have millions of dollars in the whole. Level we've done the requirements. In terms of the percentage, Good eliminated. And so what we have to do. The program that's power. The devil Two So, Those who have lived experience and those who are not. Okay. So this is only gonna ask two questions of the household and the seven questions of the individual. Unfortunately, one of those questions is sex. However, it's only the binary available option. so what we've heard from our LGBTQ plus advocates like California and the National Task Force is that folks who do not fit in those boxes should answer to the. Now, you know that this answers all of this is actually yours. The place Your senses compared to any other government, Additionally, everything that answer is protected by a very strong federal privacy. So this is called titled 13. it's been in place that strengthen over.
