What the president has proposed is to put us on a path where the debt is stabilized and we are coming down relative to gdp. It is still 100 of gdp. I would explain a little bit about the numbers.

Thats 21st, 22nd learning. Thats san francisco. So were very excited about how we go forward and we look forward to hearing your comments and we will come back with the finished Digital District plan.

Im the executive director of communications for sfusd. This is the firs
Would have this kind of technology. Now, i wont say this is going to be an easy lift. Itll be a big lift for us. Itll require us all to row in the same direction, require us to make a compelling case to the community and Business Community in san francisco, but i know we can do it, because as i read through our vision 2025, this is what were talking about, vision 2025. The graduate of 2025.
