Have a small declines for both small cap and energy and some of those other cyclical sectors. Taking a bit of a break today. Maybe we earned a bit of calm after the storm. Thank you for the update. Affordable care act really got attention yesterday. First, in the challenge to it in the Supreme Court of the united and then from president elect biden who said hed improve, not replace, obamacare. President elect biden well ease headquarter on you and your family. I promise you that. As i said, ill protect your protect it like i like its my own family. Weve been unfortunately consumers weve been significant consumers of headquarter. That starts on building on the Affordable Care act. A dramatic expansion of headquarter coverage and steps to lower headquarter costs. David we welcome one of the arc Affordable Care act, jonathan gruber, professor technical nd assistant to the Obama Administration helping draft the legislation what became the Affordable Care act. Professor, thanks for being wi
We said that from beginning and i stand behind that and people ultimately have to understand the risk that what is implied in asking them to come back and right now we need emphasis. And families that have the privilege to safely work from home. I understand all the guides, but this is definitely safety first, safety number one. And the School District has gone above and beyond in enhancing our crisis learning plan during this time. We are working on making it better and hearing families and including them that is to empower families and reach out to them and make the learning at home as seamless as possible given the fact that we are in a pandemic. There is no way around that and no way even know and for me to trust the dfl department of Public Health during the time that we have been tegs communities and seeing the results and seeing the lack of support once they are tested positive. All those things are realities and i also have a really big problem with putting our students who are
Team. Can i comment . Yes, please. I did leave it high level to work identifying who would sit on that task force. So, i did not specify it but depending on the discussion here with my colleagues, they feel it would be best serving. Its the super inten department is creating the task force, not lowell in and of itself. So, just president sanchez, i would be supportive of examining and evaluating the letter that i had read into the record including evaluating the culture. Sorry if im dragging this on.

Additional resources, and Additional Information to supplement what is in the learning continuity plan. The next slide is one other point that i wanted to make sure to address. There was a question about this at the public hearing and in the and in the previous draft of the learning continuity plan and we had highlighted that we were pending clarification from the c. D. E. About the actions and expenditures. So i just wanted to take a moment to clarify, to explain that clarification, and the response that we have received. So we wanted to confirm that the actions and the expenditures that are at the bottom of each major section of the plan, we wanted to make sure that we were approaching that process correctly. And so the clarification that we received is that we should be considering both learning loss mitigation funds and lcff funds in our plan. But we do not need to include all of both of those sources. It is up to our discretion, the extent to which we include those funds. But thos
