One where progress is not only recognized, but protected and expanded, especially in our current times.
Next Wednesday, February 11th from 4 to 6 p.m., we will be hosting our annual Black History Month art gallery in our office in room 279, featuring art by local Bayview artist Malik Seneferu, who was an artist who was born and raised in District 10.
The rest, oh, I'm not submitting.
Thank you so much, Chair Melderman.
I think the public and everyone should know this is really an exercise in politics.
This is a proposal that is really a solution in search of a problem.
If it's not the case, I would love for all of you to line up
all of the former Board of Supervisors members, all of the former mayors that have run for a term after serving eight years, and then line up all of the former supervisors, all the former mayors that have ran for a term after serving eight years that have actually won.
And those numbers could fit in a small broom closet because this is actually not an issue that exists here in San Francisco.
What we do have though is a billion dollar deficit projected here for the city and county of San Francisco.
We have a 300 million dollar projected deficit for the municipal transit agency.
And this is what we're focusing on.
Elections cost money.
People spend money in elections.
And focusing on what one or two or three or four or maybe five, six people may do in a city of over 800,000 plus people, to me this is just ludicrous.
But I know it's about politics and it's not intended to allow for more people to serve in public office.
Because if that was the case, then...
I would say my colleague isn't going far enough with this legislation.
And I truly feel that since we want to allow opportunities for people to serve and make sure that people can come on board and serve in positions that people serve in for 20, 30 years without term limits, then we should apply this to all elected officials here in San Francisco.
Otherwise, this is nothing but a political ploy to stop people from running for office again when this is not a problem that exists.
