Us. My name is patricia. I did not finish college because i couldnt pass public speaking. But im standing here right now in city hall, speaking, because this is so important to me. As an older adult, i have been taking classes at the senior center. And ive learned a little bit of public speaking and also computers. And that is how i found out about it last night, googling and hearing the news. So this is very important to me that these classes stay. Ive been shocked and awed the last few years with whats been going on. I thought i was numb to a lot of the everymorning upsets. But today, i was mad. And i decided to do something about it. And thats why im speaking today. Please vote with your heart and not with your pocketbook. I thank you for your time. Thank you. Next speaker. Hi. My name is candice fault. Im a resident of our fine city of San Francisco. And im also one of the coleaders of the San Francisco chapter of citizens climate lobby. I would like to thank all of you for the tim
Through 70s was a Thriving Black Community known all over the world. It established black businesses. Black people werent allowed to leads outside the fillmore because of racism so we were a self sustaining community. The beautiful thing about the fillmore is that you had white, jewish, you had all people from all over the world coming to shop and spend their money in black businesses.

You can see the highrise building projects. They bulldozed our community and put us in
12 years. Theres a lot of issues on the table here today, reparations for destruction of the black community, i support nurses in the e. R. , i support taxi drivers, i still take taxis. I will not take uber or lyft because im a union person. It seems like the people here in San Francisco are hurting. And thats what im hearing from everybody today. So i know that you guys are not god, and you cant solve all the problems, but to the extent that you can, im asking for help. You are probably tired about hearing of city college needing help because weve been at this for eight years one way or another. Ive been campaigning for several things to get more funding for probably at least eight years if not longer than that. But what i want to say is this midnight massacre of this last 300 classes, its like the straw that breaks the camels back. So we really need your help on this. And a lot of other people in this room need help as well. Thank you. Next speaker. Thank you for your patience and go

The blizzard warning in the sierra is set to expire in under an hour. At that time it will be downgraded to a winter storm warning. Chp managed to clear the last of the nearly 100 big rigs and 300 cars trapped up on the roads there, but things have not cleared enough for them to reopen interstate 80. Which means kelsi thorud is still stuck up in truckee where even the locals are starting to get a little fed up. Reporter you can see the snow is still coming down here in truckee.
