You guys are such good energy in the morning. Its a good time hanging out with you. When pete hope youre having a good morning waking up and we are waking up in livermore at about 56 degrees. Winds light at about three miles per hour. Looking at sfo, you can see a low cloud deck. The marine layer is in full effect. San francisco at 55 degrees. Santa rosa also at 53. San jose at 56. Heres a look of some drizzle on the coast. The marine layer is present in places like santa rosa and certainly in most of the bay area. Visibility is not bad though. Just a couple tiny spots in the north bay. It should be a problem with driving. Mostly sunny skies today. Once we kick these low clouds out, it will be in full. 60s at the coast. 70s in the bay and gorgeous and mideighties. For now we will go over to check on the traffic. Not a lot happening. This is the way we like it. We wanted to be nice and quiet for you. It is a holiday, 3 july. A lot of places are close. Bank said the star market are close

For too long, black people have been subjected to abuse at the hands of those in power. Now is the time that we can make sure that the demonstrations that we see are translated into real action. As has sadly been demonstrated by the death of george floyd, black communities are also disproportionately represented in our criminal justice system, so reforms go hand and hand both around Police Reforms and criminal justice reforms, as well. Weve seen in San Francisco a lot of real change but also knowing that we have a lot more to do. So we are really excited with this panel here today to talk about the work that San Francisco has already done but also our commitment to doing even more, including using the police in response to noncriminal activities, addressing police biases and strengthening our ability, and promoting economic justice.
