Cohens office as well and for the countless hours they spent in helping build a community coalition. I want to say supervisor wiener at the last hearing read off the pretty broad and amazing coalition thats been built. I want to make a point about that its about parent power. Not only San Francisco secondary pta, but there is a dozens ptas that individually passed resolutions in support and are hitting the ground with their children as well. Parents for public schools, the parent pack, the whole San Francisco board of education and the San Francisco unified School District. I see them here and thank them for being here and cham championing for healthy foods. The other point is that labor and Health Related organizations are in strong support.

Particularly communities of color will receive priority and funding decisions around the measure and in addition the measure has very specific language indicating that these funds could not be replacement funds, the department cannot sweep out funds already being used for purposes for replacement of these funds and these funds are intended and required for purposes of the measure to find additional and fund programs. This measure has received very broad and deep support in our health care community, our Education Community and our Parks Community and among various labor unions. I want to know that note that we have received a report from our economist. Hopefully we can provide mr. Yeeg ann opportunity to make comments.
