Walton, present. And Supervisor Wong? Wong, present. Mr. President, all members are present. Thank you, Madam Clerk. The San Francisco Board of Supervisors acknowledges that we are on the unceded ancestral homeland of the Ramaytush Ohlone, who are the original inhabitants of the San Francisco Peninsula. As the indigenous stewards of this land and in accordance with their traditions, the Ramaytush Ohlone have never ceded, lost, nor forgotten their responsibilities as the caretakers of this place, as well as for all peoples who reside in their traditional territory. As guests, we recognize that we benefit from living and working on their traditional homeland. We wish to pay our respects by acknowledging the ancestors, elders, and relatives of the Ramatushaloni community and by affirming their sovereign rights as First Peoples.

Colleagues, will you join me in reciting the Pledge of Allegiance? pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America and to the Republic for which it stands, one nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all. On behalf of our board, I'd like to acknowledge the staff at SFGov TV. And today, that's particularly Kalina Mendoza. They record each of our meetings and make the transcripts available to the public online. Madam Clerk, do you want to take us to our 2 p.m. special order? Yes. The special order at 2 p.m. is the appearance by the Honorable Mayor Daniel Lurie. There being no questions submitted from eligible members, the Mayor may address the Board for up to five minutes.

Welcome, Mr. Mayor. Thank you. Good afternoon, Board President Mandelman and members of the Board. This morning, I visited Youth First in Ingleside, a city-funded organization that is helping to take care of 65 public school students today while schools are closed. Yesterday, the city served thousands of meals to students, and our community-based organizations cared for thousands of kids. I visited sites in the Mission, the Tenderloin, and the Outer Sunset. The staff at these organizations and our city employees have really stepped up and I'm grateful to all of them. As the school district and union continue negotiating, we are continuing to provide support to families today and monitoring constantly to prepare moving forward.

I am glad that both sides are at the table today as they were yesterday. I will say here what I have said to both sides day after day. Let our kids get back to school where they belong. Our kids deserve schools where they can thrive, and their educators feel truly supported. I firmly believe that if both sides stay at the table, they can come to an agreement. I've encouraged them to do that as quickly as possible so we can get schools back open and kids back in the classroom. Now, on another topic, this past week, San Francisco hosted nearly 300 events across the city, the Pro Bowl at Moscone Center, concerts at Bill Graham and Pier 80, community activations like NFL Play 60, the Ferry Building Light Show, and more to celebrate Super Bowl week.

We welcomed visitors from around the world with an estimated $440 million in economic impact to our city. From just Tuesday through Monday, SFO saw roughly 800,000 arrivals and departures. As I traveled across the city, I heard from visitors, media, and locals alike. San Francisco was shining. None of this would have been possible without our city workers. Our public safety teams, SFPD, the Sheriff's Office, Park Rangers, the Department of Emergency Management, Fire Department, EMTs, and paramedics were deployed across the city to keep residents and visitors safe.
