next speaker. >> -- chair peskin and -- good morning, chair peskin and members of the rules committee. i am mary kate and i am a policy director at family services as well as the co-chair of hespa on the local homeless coordinating board and we support the idea of an oversight commission but only if there is an appointment authority as the other speakers and could be appointed by the controller or health officer. also, we believe that one of the seats should go to a permanent supportive housing tenant and the wording relates to the our city, our home oversight committee should be changed to ensure that the committee can make recommendations to the mayor and the board, not just the commission. commissions we know are not silver bullets and we risk adding another layer of bureaucracy and part of the process for the process. >> thank you. >> next caller please. >> this is david elliott lewis. i am a member of the tenderloin people's congress, chair of the vision 2020 committee that worked with the planning commission. with the way it is currently structured is deficient. if you're going

. >> chair: thank you chair peskin, we always love it when you wonder through any issue and educate us your brain with sanfrancisco history .and berkeley. so let me try to explain what's going on herecolleagues . first i want to apologize to labor. i was related to the conversation i had with chief of staff burns if i was incorrect and i was here but my memory isn't as long as supervisor peskin is memory. i apologize. i've been a lifelong storage labor supporter. i have spent my life fighting for workers especially low-wage workers. and just this budget thing, last budget i talked to the mayor until 3:00 in the morning to get cost-of-living to 10 to 1 numbers. completely on myown . i was just fighting it so there's a lot of information going around and i have to say it has reached some of the disinformation campaign that we'reseeing at the federal level . i just want to make a couple of points.the first point is that compromise that labor is putting forward.you'd have us use a certain percentage of eraf that would escalate overtime similar to the way that the amendment before you today

[ indiscernible ] some of our union members don't understand how much it costs to build a good building per square foot. they must be taught that one square foot knocks off more than $1,000. maybe 1,250. once you understand that, they can figure out the rest. don't come here to city hall and make some general statements. they fall on deaf ears. as to you, supervisors, there is one or two supervisors that understand about the housing. what they are doing is kicking there can down the street. have your heart in the right place. please have your heart in the right place. it is despicable, simply despicable to see so many poor people sleeping on the streets and more -- it is desp
