00:55:49:00	00:55:49:00	FROM BEN DURKIN.
00:55:49:00	00:55:52:00	YOU HAVE THE FLOOR NOW YOU HAVE
00:55:52:00	00:55:52:00	THE FLOOR.
00:55:52:00	00:55:53:00	THANK YOU SO MUCH,
00:55:53:00	00:55:53:00	COUNCIL PRESIDENT.
00:55:53:00	00:55:55:00	I WANT TO THANK
00:55:55:00	00:55:55:00	COUNCILOR SANTANA FOR
00:55:55:00	00:55:56:00	SPONSORING THIS HEARING ORDER
00:55:56:00	00:55:59:00	THAT I'M PROUD TO CO-SPONSOR.
00:55:59:00	00:55:59:00	WHEN YOU THINK OF ICONIC
00:55:59:00	00:56:02:00	HOUSING STOCK IN BOSTON, TWO
00:56:02:00	00:56:02:00	THINGS COME TO MIND.
00:56:02:00	00:56:03:00	BRICK ROW HOUSES AND TRIPLE
00:56:03:00	00:56:03:00	DECKERS.
00:56:03:00	00:56:06:00	THE FACT OF THE MATTER IS THAT
00:56:06:00	00:56:07:00	FAR TOO MUCH OF BOSTON'S LAND
00:56:07:00	00:56:10:00	THESE STRUCTURES ARE ILLEGAL TO
00:56:10:00	00:56:11:00	BUILD THROUGH OUR ZONING CODE.
00:56:11:00	00:56:14:00	ASK ANY OF THE COLLEAGUES IN
00:56:14:00	00:56:14:00	THE CHAMBER WHAT THEY ARE TOLD
00:56:14:00	00:56:17:00	TIME AND TIME AGAIN AND IT'S
00:56:17:00	00:56:18:00	THAT WE'RE IN THE MIDDLE OF A
00:56:18:00	00:56:18:00	HOUSING CRISIS.
00:56:18:00	00:56:21:00	THIS CRISIS DEMANDS THAT WE
00:56:21:00	00:56:25:00	EXAMINE EVERY SINGLE TOOL.
00:56:25:00	00:56:25:00	I BELIEVE IN A BOSTON THAT
00:56:25:00	00:56:26:00	PLANS FOR ABUNDANCE THAT MEANS
00:56:26:00	00:56:29:00	CREATING MORE HOMES AND MORE
00:56:29:00	00:56:30:00	CHANCES FOR PEOPLE TO STAY AND
00:56:30:00	00:56:30:00	BUILD A LIFE HERE.
00:56:30:00	00:56:33:00	IF WE WANT TO BE A CITY THAT
00:56:33:00	00:56:33:00	WORKS FOR EVERYONE, WE NEED TO
00:56:33:00	00:56:36:00	MAKE IT EASIER TO BUILD
00:56:36:00	00:56:36:00	HOUSING.
00:56:36:00	00:56:36:00	THAT MEANS UPDATING RULES THAT
00:56:36:00	00:56:40:00	HOLD US BACK AND PARTS OF THE
00:56:40:00	00:56:40:00	PROCESS THAT DON'T SERVE THE
00:56:40:00	00:56:40:00	PUBLIC.
00:56:40:00	00:56:43:00	WE NEED TO FACILITATE PROCESSES
00:56:43:00	00:56:44:00	THAT CENTER THE CURRENT NEEDS
00:56:44:00	00:56:47:00	AND THE NEEDS OF FUTURE
00:56:47:00	00:56:48:00	RESIDENTS WHILE MAKING OUR
00:56:48:00	00:56:48:00	VALUES CLEAR.
00:56:48:00	00:56:51:00	PLANNING FOR ABUNDANCE IS
00:56:51:00	00:56:51:00	GROWING WITH CARE.
00:56:51:00	00:56:52:00	NEW HOUSING SHOULD COME WITH
00:56:52:00	00:56:54:00	SOLID BENEFITS INCLUDING OPEN
00:56:54:00	00:56:55:00	SAFE SAFE STREETS AND A VOICE
00:56:55:00	00:56:58:00	FOR PEOPLE WHO LIVE NEARBY.
00:56:58:00	00:56:59:00	WE DON'T HAVE TO PICK BETWEEN
00:56:59:00	00:57:00:00	WELCOMING NEW NEIGHBORS AND
00:57:00:00	00:57:02:00	HONORING WHAT MAKES OUR
00:57:02:00	00:57:02:00	COMMUNITY SPECIAL.
00:57:02:00	00:57:03:00	WE CAN DO BOTH.
00:57:03:00	00:57:06:00	RECENTLY I SPONSORED AND
00:57:06:00	00:57:06:00	SUCCESSFULLY PETITIONED THE
00:57:06:00	00:57:10:00	ZONING COMMISSION TO MAKE
00:57:10:00	00:57:10:00	HOUSING AND ALLOWED USE IN THE
00:57:10:00	00:57:11:00	FRENCH TRIANGLE.
00:57:11:00	00:57:13:00	REMOVING UNNECESSARY TO HOUSING
00:57:13:00	00:57:14:00	THAT'S ONE EXAMPLE.
00:57:14:00	00:57:17:00	THIS IS ANOTHER WE NEED TO DO
00:57:17:00	00:57:18:00	MORE AND AS A CITY WE
00:57:18:00	00:57:21:00	DESPERATELY NEED TO EMBRACE AN
00:57:21:00	00:57:21:00	ABUNDANCE MINDSET.
00:57:21:00	00:57:22:00	THANK YOU COUNSELOR SANTANA AND
00:57:22:00	00:57:25:00	COUNSELOR RED PEN AND JOINING

00:57:29:00	00:57:29:00	MINDSET.
00:57:29:00	00:57:30:00	WE NEED MORE COUNSELORS TO JOIN
00:57:30:00	00:57:30:00	US.
00:57:30:00	00:57:33:00	THANK YOU.

00:57:38:00	00:57:39:00	SANTANA AND COUNSELOR DEREK FOR
00:57:39:00	00:57:40:00	HAVING ME AS A THIRD ORIGINAL
00:57:40:00	00:57:41:00	CO-SPONSOR.
00:57:41:00	00:57:41:00	SO I ACTUALLY GREW UP IN A
00:57:41:00	00:57:44:00	TRIPLE DECKER.
00:57:44:00	00:57:44:00	I GREW UP IN THE FIRST TRIPLE
00:57:44:00	00:57:47:00	DECKER WHERE THE DOMINICAN
00:57:47:00	00:57:47:00	FAMILY IN THE FIRST FLOOR
00:57:47:00	00:57:48:00	JAMAICAN FAMILY THE SECOND
00:57:48:00	00:57:49:00	FLOOR IN A TRINIDADIAN FAMILY
00:57:49:00	00:57:50:00	IN THE THIRD FOURTH THAT IS
00:57:50:00	00:57:51:00	LITERALLY THE EPITOME OF WHAT A
00:57:51:00	00:57:53:00	TRIPLE DECKER HOLD INSIDE
00:57:53:00	00:57:54:00	OF THE CITY OF BOSTON IS THAT
00:57:54:00	00:57:57:00	IT'S MULTICULTURAL,
00:57:57:00	00:57:58:00	MULTI-GENERATIONAL FAMILIES
00:57:58:00	00:57:58:00	THAT COME TO THE CITY
00:57:58:00	00:57:59:00	OF BOSTON.
00:57:59:00	00:58:02:00	AND WHEN I WAS LOOKING AT THE
00:58:02:00	00:58:03:00	ZONING REFORMS THAT WE WERE
00:58:03:00	00:58:03:00	DOING IN ROSEDALE SQUARE THIS
00:58:03:00	00:58:05:00	PAST YEAR FOR THE SQUARES AND
00:58:05:00	00:58:06:00	THE STREETS CONVERSATION WE
00:58:06:00	00:58:10:00	LEARNED MY OFFICE AND FOR SURE
00:58:10:00	00:58:10:00	IS THAT TRIPLE DECKERS USED TO
00:58:10:00	00:58:14:00	BE AS OF RIGHT.
00:58:14:00	00:58:14:00	THEY USED TO BE LEGAL HERE IN
00:58:14:00	00:58:16:00	THE CITY OF BOSTON UP UNTIL THE
00:58:16:00	00:58:17:00	1930S AND THERE'S A THERE'S A
00:58:17:00	00:58:20:00	VERY, VERY EVIDENT CORRELATION
00:58:20:00	00:58:24:00	THERE THAT IT STARTED TO BECOME
00:58:24:00	00:58:24:00	NOT AS OF RIGHT AND MORE
00:58:24:00	00:58:28:00	DIFFICULT TO BUILD THE IRISH
00:58:28:00	00:58:28:00	ITALIAN FAMILIES, JEWISH
00:58:28:00	00:58:31:00	FAMILIES, BLACK FAMILIES AND
00:58:31:00	00:58:32:00	EVENTUALLY THE CARIBBEAN
00:58:32:00	00:58:32:00	FAMILIES STARTED TO MOVE INTO
00:58:32:00	00:58:33:00	THE CITY OF BOSTON.
00:58:33:00	00:58:36:00	SO THESE THE FORMER ELITIST
00:58:36:00	00:58:40:00	OF THE CITY THEY MADE IT MORE
00:58:40:00	00:58:40:00	DIFFICULT TO BUILD THESE TYPE
00:58:40:00	00:58:40:00	OF HOUSING.
00:58:40:00	00:58:43:00	AND WHAT HAPPENED IS THAT THESE
00:58:43:00	00:58:44:00	VERY OUTDATED POLICIES IN
00:58:44:00	00:58:47:00	ZONING REGULATIONS HAVE BEEN
00:58:47:00	00:58:47:00	HAVE REMAINED HERE IN THE CITY
00:58:47:00	00:58:50:00	OF BOSTON WHICH HAS ACTUALLY
00:58:50:00	00:58:50:00	MADE IT MORE DIFFICULT.
00:58:50:00	00:58:51:00	SO WHEN WE WERE LOOKING AT A
00:58:51:00	00:58:54:00	TRIPLE DECKER, I OFTENTIMES
00:58:54:00	00:58:55:00	ACTUALLY SEE IT AS THE THE
00:58:55:00	00:58:56:00	PERFECT WAY OF WHAT A HOUSE
00:58:56:00	00:58:59:00	LOOKS LIKE IN THE CITY
00:58:59:00	00:58:59:00	OF BOSTON.
00:58:59:00	00:59:00:00	IT'S WHEN YOU DRIVE DOWN
00:59:00:00	00:59:02:00	WASHINGTON STREET, DORCHESTER
00:59:02:00	00:59:03:00	AVENUE, YOU DRIVE DOWN HIGH
00:59:03:00	00:59:06:00	PARK OUT THAT IS THE TYPE
00:59:06:00	00:59:07:00	OF HOUSING THAT YOU SEE AND
00:59:07:00	00:59:10:00	IT'S WHERE OUR FAMILIES ARE
00:59:10:00	00:59:10:00	BEING RAISED.
00:59:10:00	00:59:11:00	SO I JUST THINK THAT WE NEED TO
00:59:11:00	00:59:13:00	DO EVERYTHING POSSIBLE TO MAKE
00:59:13:00	00:59:14:00	IT EASIER TO CONTINUE TO BUILD
00:59:14:00	00:59:15:00	THESE HOUSES SO THAT WE CAN
00:59:15:00	00:59:18:00	CONTINUE TO PROVIDE HOUSING FOR
00:59:18:00	00:59:18:00	FUTURE FAMILIES.
00:59:18:00	00:59:19:00	I WANT TO CALL BOSTON HOME.
00:59:19:00	00:59:22:00	SO THANK YOU.

00:59:29:00	00:59:32:00	ESPECIALLY IN SOUTH BOSTON.

00:59:41:00	00:59:41:00	MEMBER TO COUNCIL SANTANA,
00:59:41:00	00:59:44:00	WOULD THIS HAVE ANY IMPACT ON
00:59:44:00	00:59:45:00	THE CURRENT TRIPLE DECKERS IN
00:59:45:00	00:59:48:00	TERMS OF ADDING A APARTMENT IN
00:59:48:00	00:59:49:00	THE BASEMENT?
00:59:49:00	00:59:52:00	IS THAT PART OF THE
00:59:52:00	00:59:53:00	CONVERSATION AND DO WE HAVE TO
00:59:53:00	00:59:56:00	GET ANY GUIDANCE ON THAT
00:59:56:00	01:00:00:00	PARTICULAR ISSUE AS WELL?
01:00:00:00	01:00:00:00	OR IS IT GOING TO BE DISCUSSED
01:00:00:00	01:00:01:00	DURING THE HEARING?

01:00:11:00	01:00:12:00	YOU KNOW, I DON'T EXPECT THAT
01:00:12:00	01:00:13:00	TO HAVE AN IMPACT ON THAT.
01:00:13:00	01:00:15:00	BUT I CERTAINLY I THINK CAN BE
01:00:15:00	01:00:16:00	PART OF THE CONVERSATION AND I
01:00:16:00	01:00:16:00	THINK THAT'S WHAT HEARING

01:00:30:00	01:00:33:00	THAT WE CAN DO THIS AND DO IT'S
01:00:33:00	01:00:33:00	SUCCESSFULLY.

01:00:34:00	01:00:40:00	EAST BOSTON WHERE WE ADDED TWO
01:00:40:00	01:00:41:00	AND A HALF FAMILIES ZONING
01:00:41:00	01:00:41:00	SOMETHING THAT WAS CONSISTENT
01:00:41:00	01:00:42:00	WITH THE NEIGHBORHOOD CHARACTER
01:00:42:00	01:00:44:00	IN ORANGE HEIGHTS AND GOING
01:00:44:00	01:00:48:00	FROM 3 TO 4 IN AREAS OF EAGLE
01:00:48:00	01:00:48:00	HILL WHERE I LIVE.
01:00:48:00	01:00:49:00	AND SO THE CITY HAS ALREADY
01:00:49:00	01:00:50:00	INDICATED THAT THIS COULD BE
01:00:50:00	01:00:52:00	SUCCESSFUL.
01:00:52:00	01:00:53:00	THE SPIRIT AND INTENT OF THIS
01:00:53:00	01:00:53:00	IS SPOT ON.
01:00:53:00	01:00:56:00	THIS IS TO HELP
01:00:56:00	01:00:57:00	MULTI-GENERATIONAL FAMILIES
01:00:57:00	01:01:00:00	IMMIGRANTS WHO HAVE COME HERE
01:01:00:00	01:01:01:00	AND CHOSEN THIS COUNTRY FOR A
01:01:01:00	01:01:01:00	BETTER LIFE.
01:01:01:00	01:01:04:00	WHAT WE HAVE SEEN IN THE PAST
01:01:04:00	01:01:05:00	AND THE REASON WHY I THINK THAT
01:01:05:00	01:01:07:00	THIS IS SO IMPORTANT IS BECAUSE
01:01:07:00	01:01:08:00	HAVE UTILIZED THE ZONING
01:01:08:00	01:01:12:00	CODE TO BASICALLY GAME THE
01:01:12:00	01:01:12:00	SYSTEM TO BUILD UP TO THE
01:01:12:00	01:01:16:00	NECESSARY AFFORDABILITY AND IT
01:01:16:00	01:01:19:00	HAS BEEN DEVASTATING IN EAST
01:01:19:00	01:01:22:00	BOSTON WHERE THERE HAS BEEN
01:01:22:00	01:01:23:00	BUILDING THAT HAS NOT BEEN
01:01:23:00	01:01:26:00	INTENTIONAL WITH AFFORDABILITY
01:01:26:00	01:01:26:00	AND THIS HAS LED TO
01:01:26:00	01:01:30:00	DISPLACEMENT AND GENTRIFICATION
01:01:30:00	01:01:30:00	.
01:01:30:00	01:01:31:00	AND SO THIS IS WHY I'M ASKING
01:01:31:00	01:01:34:00	AS PART OF THIS CONVERSATION TO
01:01:34:00	01:01:35:00	JUST ENSURE THAT THERE ARE SOME
01:01:35:00	01:01:38:00	CONVERSATIONS TO BE HAD ABOUT
01:01:38:00	01:01:39:00	HOW TO ENSURE THAT FOLKS WHO
01:01:39:00	01:01:42:00	WILL BENEFIT FROM THIS THAT
01:01:42:00	01:01:42:00	SHOULD BENEFIT FROM THIS WILL
01:01:42:00	01:01:45:00	ACTUALLY BE ABLE TO HAVE A
01:01:45:00	01:01:46:00	CONSTRUCTION LOAN OR HAVE
01:01:46:00	01:01:49:00	ARCHITECTS OR STRUCTURAL
01:01:49:00	01:01:50:00	ENGINEERS THAT CAN HELP THEM.
01:01:50:00	01:01:53:00	AND SO I'M REALLY GRATEFUL TO
01:01:53:00	01:01:54:00	YOU, COUNCILOR SANTANA FOR THIS
01:01:54:00	01:01:54:00	IN THE COURSE OF THE

01:14:49:00	01:14:53:00	CHALLENGES AND SPECIFIC

01:14:57:00	01:15:01:00	THESE ARE BECOMING ISSUES IN
01:15:01:00	01:15:01:00	OUR NEIGHBORHOODS.
01:15:01:00	01:15:02:00	LAST YEAR I FILED A HEARING
01:15:02:00	01:15:03:00	ORDER TO EXAMINE SHORT TERM
01:15:03:00	01:15:04:00	RENTAL ENFORCEMENT BUT IT WAS
01:15:04:00	01:15:05:00	CLEAR AND BECAUSE IT WAS CLEAR
01:15:05:00	01:15:08:00	THAT WE NEEDED TO REVISIT THE
01:15:08:00	01:15:09:00	ISSUE AND ENSURE THE ORDINANCE
01:15:09:00	01:15:09:00	IS WORKING AS WELL.
01:15:09:00	01:15:12:00	THAT CREATED AN OPPORTUNITY TO
01:15:12:00	01:15:13:00	SPEAK WITH COMPANIES LIKE
01:15:13:00	01:15:13:00	AIRBNB AND SPEAKING WITH THE
01:15:13:00	01:15:16:00	CITY.
01:15:16:00	01:15:17:00	I ACTUALLY THINK THE ORDINANCE
01:15:17:00	01:15:17:00	IS WRITTEN REALLY WELL.
01:15:17:00	01:15:20:00	I JUST THINK IT'S BEING ABUSED
01:15:20:00	01:15:20:00	BY THESE LOOPHOLES SPECIFICALLY
01:15:20:00	01:15:24:00	THE SHORT TERM RENTAL HOSPITAL
01:15:24:00	01:15:24:00	STAY LOOPHOLE.
01:15:24:00	01:15:28:00	ESSENTIALLY WHAT WE FOUND IS
01:15:28:00	01:15:29:00	INSTEAD OF DOING YOUR REPORT AT
01:15:29:00	01:15:31:00	THE END OF THE YEAR WITH YOUR
01:15:31:00	01:15:32:00	PERMIT INSTEAD OF TURNING IN
01:15:32:00	01:15:35:00	HOW MANY DAYS YOU HAD PEOPLE
01:15:35:00	01:15:39:00	JUST LET THEIR LET THEIR PERMIT
01:15:39:00	01:15:42:00	LAPSE AND THEN AGAIN THEY LET
01:15:42:00	01:15:43:00	IT LAPSE FOR A WHILE AND THEN
01:15:43:00	01:15:44:00	THEY REAPPLY FOR A PERMIT NOT
01:15:44:00	01:15:47:00	HAVING TO PROVIDE THE
01:15:47:00	01:15:47:00	INFORMATION AT THE END OF THEIR
01:15:47:00	01:15:48:00	PERMIT YEAR.
01:15:48:00	01:15:51:00	THAT'S A HUGE ISSUE AND UNLESS
01:15:51:00	01:15:51:00	COMPANIES LIKE AIRBNB ARE

01:15:55:00	01:15:55:00	ISSUE, OUR CITY DEPARTMENTS
01:15:55:00	01:15:58:00	DON'T HAVE THE ABILITY TO JUST
01:15:58:00	01:15:59:00	CREATE MORE PEOPLE GET MORE
01:15:59:00	01:16:02:00	DONE.
01:16:02:00	01:16:03:00	LITERALLY THEY NEED TO REGULATE
01:16:03:00	01:16:03:00	THEMSELVES IN SOME WAY IF THEY
01:16:03:00	01:16:06:00	WANT TO CONTINUE TO OPERATE IN

01:20:00:00	01:20:00:00	IT'S REALLY DISTRESSING TO

01:20:23:00	01:20:24:00	SHORT TERM RENTALS AND IT JUST
01:20:24:00	01:20:27:00	MAKES A MOCKERY OF THE WHOLE

01:20:43:00	01:20:46:00	SHORT TERM RENTALS IS NOT THE

01:22:19:00	01:22:21:00	HISTORICALLY BOSTON PUBLIC
01:22:21:00	01:22:22:00	SCHOOL TRANSPORTATION HAD A LOW
01:22:22:00	01:22:25:00	RATE OF ON TIME PERFORMANCE
01:22:25:00	01:22:28:00	WITH LAST YEAR BEING 34% ON THE

01:22:54:00	01:22:54:00	OF MORE TRAINING FOR THEIR BUS
01:22:54:00	01:22:55:00	DRIVERS.
01:22:55:00	01:22:58:00	THOSE PERCENTAGES ARE WAY
01:22:58:00	01:22:58:00	HIGHER THIS YEAR THE FIRST DAY
01:22:58:00	01:23:02:00	OF SCHOOL SIGN ON TIME
01:23:02:00	01:23:05:00	PERFORMANCE RATE OF 66% ALMOST
01:23:05:00	01:23:06:00	DOUBLE OF THE LAST SCHOOL YEAR.

01:23:13:00	01:23:13:00	84% ON TIME PERCENTAGE.
01:23:13:00	01:23:17:00	96% OF THEM WERE WITHIN 50% AND

01:23:18:00	01:23:18:00	MINUTES.
01:23:18:00	01:23:22:00	AS A NEW PARENT, THESE
01:23:22:00	01:23:22:00	SIGNIFICANT RISES NOT ONLY GIVE

01:23:37:00	01:23:40:00	RAISE THE RATES HIGHER AND
01:23:40:00	01:23:41:00	HIGHER BECAUSE THE NUMBERS
01:23:41:00	01:23:41:00	OBVIOUSLY COULDN'T BE BETTER
01:23:41:00	01:23:44:00	BUT WE ARE DEFINITELY SEEING

01:25:06:00	01:25:07:00	I HAD A HEARING ORDER ON THIS
01:25:07:00	01:25:08:00	ISSUE LAST YEAR AND HELD
01:25:08:00	01:25:11:00	HEARINGS WITH COUNCILOR MURPHY

01:25:12:00	01:25:15:00	STUDENT ATHLETES AS WELL.
01:25:15:00	01:25:18:00	I'VE BEEN FOCUSED ON THIS ISSUE
01:25:18:00	01:25:18:00	FOR OVER EIGHT YEARS.
01:25:18:00	01:25:22:00	WE ALL KNOW OUR STUDENTS AND
01:25:22:00	01:25:22:00	FAMILIES ENDURED MANY INSTANCES
01:25:22:00	01:25:23:00	OVER THE LAST YEAR FOLLOWING
01:25:23:00	01:25:26:00	THE ROLL OUT OF THE ZOOM APP
01:25:26:00	01:25:29:00	BUT WE HAD NO SHOW BUSSES
01:25:29:00	01:25:30:00	STUDENTS ARRIVING OR NOT
01:25:30:00	01:25:33:00	ARRIVING OR COMING HOME AN HOUR
01:25:33:00	01:25:34:00	OR 2 HOURS LATER IF THE BUS
01:25:34:00	01:25:37:00	SHOWED UP AT ALL UNACCEPTABLE.
01:25:37:00	01:25:41:00	LET ME SAY THIS AGAIN WE CAN
01:25:41:00	01:25:42:00	NEVER NORMALIZE THE IMPACT
01:25:42:00	01:25:45:00	OF NO SHOW AND LATE BUSSES LAST
01:25:45:00	01:25:45:00	YEAR ON STUDENTS.
01:25:45:00	01:25:49:00	STUDENTS WITH DISABILITIES.
01:25:49:00	01:25:49:00	STUDENT ATHLETES AND FAMILIES
01:25:49:00	01:25:52:00	AND ALSO THE TEACHERS AND THE
01:25:52:00	01:25:53:00	ADMINISTRATORS AS WELL.
01:25:53:00	01:25:55:00	IT'S NOT AN EASY LEARNING
01:25:55:00	01:25:56:00	ENVIRONMENT FOR THEM TO
01:25:56:00	01:25:56:00	PROVIDE.
01:25:56:00	01:26:00:00	UNFORTUNATELY, I'M NOT HOPEFUL
01:26:00:00	01:26:01:00	THAT THESE ISSUES ARE PASSED
01:26:01:00	01:26:01:00	US.
01:26:01:00	01:26:04:00	I HAVE FAMILIES IN DISTRICT TWO
01:26:04:00	01:26:05:00	THAT ARE AGAIN INFORMING
01:26:05:00	01:26:07:00	ME THAT THEIR CHILDREN ARE

01:26:08:00	01:26:11:00	AND FROM SCHOOL.
01:26:11:00	01:26:11:00	LET'S BE CLEAR.
01:26:11:00	01:26:12:00	LAST YEAR WAS THE WORST THIS
01:26:12:00	01:26:15:00	PROBLEM HAS EVER BEEN.
01:26:15:00	01:26:17:00	IT IS UNCONSCIONABLE THAT WE'RE
01:26:17:00	01:26:20:00	SPENDING $180 MILLION FOR
01:26:20:00	01:26:21:00	TRANSPORTATION AND WE CONTINUE
01:26:21:00	01:26:26:00	TO FEEL OUR CHILDREN.
01:26:26:00	01:26:27:00	LET'S HAVE SOME ORGANIZATION
01:26:27:00	01:26:30:00	WITH THE MOST EFFICIENT ROUTES
01:26:30:00	01:26:30:00	POSSIBLE FOLLOW THROUGH TO
01:26:30:00	01:26:33:00	EDUCATE OUR DRIVERS BY DOING
01:26:33:00	01:26:33:00	DRIVE RUNS, MAINTAINING
01:26:33:00	01:26:34:00	CONSISTENT ROUTES FOR OUR
01:26:34:00	01:26:38:00	DRIVERS, SUPPORTING OUR
01:26:38:00	01:26:38:00	DRIVERS.
01:26:38:00	01:26:41:00	NOW LET OUR CHILDREN WELL LET'S
01:26:41:00	01:26:41:00	GET OUR CHILDREN TO SCHOOL AND
01:26:41:00	01:26:42:00	BACK SAFELY.
01:26:42:00	01:26:46:00	THAT CAN HELP YOU.
01:26:46:00	01:26:46:00	THANK YOU.
01:26:46:00	01:26:47:00	DOES ANYONE ELSE WANT TO SPEAK

01:26:57:00	01:26:57:00	PLACE.

01:26:58:00	01:27:00:00	FAMILY OUTSIDE WAITING FOR WHAT
01:27:00:00	01:27:01:00	LOOKED LIKE THEY WERE WAITING

01:27:04:00	01:27:05:00	WAS ABLE TO CALL DAN AND FIND
01:27:05:00	01:27:07:00	OUT WHAT HAPPENED TO THEIR BUS
01:27:07:00	01:27:11:00	AND EVENTUALLY THE BUS DID COME
01:27:11:00	01:27:12:00	ON A BUS THAT'S USUALLY ON TIME
01:27:12:00	01:27:12:00	AND I CALLED THE FAMILY AGAIN

01:53:12:00	01:53:13:00	JOY IN THE RESISTANCE

01:53:40:00	01:53:44:00	LATINO CELEBRATION BUT I THINK

01:54:04:00	01:54:04:00	THEIR HISTORY AND WHO KNOW HOW
01:54:04:00	01:54:07:00	TO FIGHT BECAUSE I THINK THAT'S
01:54:07:00	01:54:08:00	WHAT THIS MOMENT CALLS FOR AT
01:54:08:00	01:54:08:00	EVERY LEVEL.

01:59:50:00	01:59:51:00	RENTER AS SOMEONE THAT HAS SEEN
01:59:51:00	01:59:54:00	HOW THE PRICES OF RENT HAS
01:59:54:00	01:59:54:00	IMPACTED OUR RESIDENTS, I'M SO
01:59:54:00	01:59:57:00	PROUD TO SUPPORT THIS
01:59:57:00	01:59:57:00	RESOLUTION BECAUSE I JUST KNOW
01:59:57:00	02:00:02:00	HOW MUCH HOW MUCH OF AN IMPACT
02:00:02:00	02:00:02:00	THIS PLAYS ON OUR OWN OUR
02:00:02:00	02:00:03:00	RESIDENTS HERE IN THE CITY
02:00:03:00	02:00:04:00	OF BOSTON OVER 60% OF OUR
02:00:04:00	02:00:05:00	RESIDENTS ARE RENTERS AND EVERY
02:00:05:00	02:00:08:00	SINGLE YEAR FOR MANY OF THEM
02:00:08:00	02:00:08:00	THEIR RENT INCREASES.
02:00:08:00	02:00:09:00	THERE'S SOME GOOD LANDLORDS OUT
02:00:09:00	02:00:13:00	THERE BUT NOT EVERYONE THAT HAS
02:00:13:00	02:00:17:00	THAT PRACTICE WHICH IS WHY LAST
02:00:17:00	02:00:18:00	YEAR WAS SUPPORTIVE.
02:00:18:00	02:00:20:00	COUNCIL AND COUNCIL PRESIDENT
02:00:20:00	02:00:20:00	LOUIJEUNE WE KNOW WE PASSED
02:00:20:00	02:00:21:00	THAT BROKER FEE RESOLUTION
02:00:21:00	02:00:24:00	WHICH THEN THE GOVERNOR PASSED
02:00:24:00	02:00:25:00	THE STATE HOUSE WHICH WAS A WAY
02:00:25:00	02:00:28:00	TO PROTECT OUR RENTERS HERE IN
02:00:28:00	02:00:29:00	THE STATE OF MASSACHUSETTS.
02:00:29:00	02:00:29:00	NOW I THINK THIS IS THE NEXT
02:00:29:00	02:00:32:00	STEP FORWARD THIS IS THE NEXT
02:00:32:00	02:00:33:00	STEP FORWARD BECAUSE IT'S AN
02:00:33:00	02:00:33:00	AGGRESSIVE APPROACH.
02:00:33:00	02:00:34:00	IT'S ONE THAT IS TRULY
02:00:34:00	02:00:36:00	ADVOCATING FOR THE RENTERS AND
02:00:36:00	02:00:37:00	ONE THAT I BELIEVE WE SHOULD BE
02:00:37:00	02:00:38:00	SUPPORTING NOT JUST HERE IN THE
02:00:38:00	02:00:40:00	CITY OF BOSTON BUT ACROSS THE
02:00:40:00	02:00:41:00	STATE OF MASSACHUSETTS AND
02:00:41:00	02:00:41:00	OTHERS.
02:00:41:00	02:00:44:00	I WANT TO GIVE A SHOUT OUT TO
02:00:44:00	02:00:47:00	AN ORGANIZER IN MY DISTRICT
02:00:47:00	02:00:48:00	NAME IS ELVIRA.
02:00:48:00	02:00:48:00	SHE WORKED FOR ABANDONED
02:00:48:00	02:00:51:00	HOUSING IN MASSACHUSETTS THAT
02:00:51:00	02:00:52:00	JUST LIKE THAT GROUP IN GENERAL
02:00:52:00	02:00:55:00	HAS BEEN DOING AMAZING WORK AND
02:00:55:00	02:00:55:00	THEY ARE ALWAYS KEEPING
02:00:55:00	02:00:59:00	ME INFORMED OF WHAT POLICY WE
02:00:59:00	02:00:59:00	SHOULD BE PUSHING FOR.
02:00:59:00	02:01:03:00	AND I JUST BELIEVE THAT THIS IS
02:01:03:00	02:01:04:00	LIKE I SAID EARLIER, THIS IS
02:01:04:00	02:01:04:00	THE RIGHT NEXT STEP FOR US.
02:01:04:00	02:01:06:00	SO I APPRECIATE
02:01:06:00	02:01:07:00	COUNCILOR SANTANA FOR OUT OF ME

02:01:10:00	02:01:11:00	THE CHAIR CAN I JUST
02:01:11:00	02:01:12:00	CONCENTRATE ON YOU ON THE FLOOR
02:01:12:00	02:01:13:00	?
02:01:13:00	02:01:13:00	THANK YOU MADAM PRESIDENT AND
02:01:13:00	02:01:17:00	THANK YOU TO THE SPONSORS FOR
02:01:17:00	02:01:17:00	THIS ONE.
02:01:17:00	02:01:18:00	THIS IS ANOTHER REALLY, REALLY
02:01:18:00	02:01:21:00	IMPORTANT RESOLUTION.
02:01:21:00	02:01:25:00	I THINK THE FACT THAT OUR RENTS
02:01:25:00	02:01:26:00	INCREASE AT SUCH A CLIP YEAR ON
02:01:26:00	02:01:29:00	YEAR IS DETRIMENTAL ALL OF OUR
02:01:29:00	02:01:33:00	COMMUNITIES REGARDLESS
02:01:33:00	02:01:33:00	OF WHETHER YOU'RE A RENTER OR A
02:01:33:00	02:01:39:00	HOMEOWNER IN 2023,
02:01:39:00	02:01:40:00	MASSACHUSETTS HAD A
02:01:40:00	02:01:42:00	HOMEOWNERSHIP RATE OF 61.9%.
02:01:42:00	02:01:45:00	SO THAT MEANT THAT THERE WAS A
02:01:45:00	02:01:48:00	28 POINTS DO THE MATH 28%
02:01:48:00	02:01:52:00	OF OUR POPULATION WERE RENTERS
02:01:52:00	02:01:53:00	HERE IN THE CITY IS MUCH HIGHER
02:01:53:00	02:01:56:00	IN ALL CITY.
02:01:56:00	02:01:56:00	RIGHT.
02:01:56:00	02:01:58:00	AND WE HAVE A RENTER POPULATION
02:01:58:00	02:01:58:00	OF ABOUT 80% AND THAT
02:01:58:00	02:01:59:00	HOMEOWNERSHIP RATE IN
02:01:59:00	02:02:02:00	MASSACHUSETTS IS 4% LOWER THAN
02:02:02:00	02:02:02:00	THE NATIONAL AVERAGE.
02:02:02:00	02:02:05:00	AND YOU MIGHT WONDER WHY I'M
02:02:05:00	02:02:06:00	TALKING ABOUT HOMEOWNERSHIP IN
02:02:06:00	02:02:09:00	THE CONTEXT OF RENT.
02:02:09:00	02:02:10:00	BUT IF OUR YOUNG YOUNG ADULTS
02:02:10:00	02:02:13:00	WE HAVE THE FOURTH LOWEST HOME
02:02:13:00	02:02:16:00	HOMEOWNERSHIP NATIONALLY
02:02:16:00	02:02:16:00	OF FOUR YOUNG ADULTS BETWEEN
02:02:16:00	02:02:19:00	THE AGES OF 25 AND 35, THE
02:02:19:00	02:02:23:00	FOLKS THAT ARE WANTING TO MAYBE
02:02:23:00	02:02:23:00	BUY A FIRST HOME, SETTLE DOWN
02:02:23:00	02:02:27:00	AND START A FAMILY IN IN IN
02:02:27:00	02:02:27:00	MASSACHUSETTS WE HAVE THE
02:02:27:00	02:02:30:00	FOURTH LOWEST HOMEOWNERSHIP AND
02:02:30:00	02:02:31:00	ONE OF THE FACTORS IN THAT IS
02:02:31:00	02:02:32:00	THAT 20% OF THE HOME SALES IN
02:02:32:00	02:02:35:00	THE LAST YEAR I DON'T KNOW IT
02:02:35:00	02:02:35:00	WAS 2023 OR 24 WHEREBY BY
02:02:35:00	02:02:37:00	PRIVATE EQUITY ESPECIALLY IN
02:02:37:00	02:02:41:00	OUR GATEWAY CITIES AND THE
02:02:41:00	02:02:44:00	PRIVATE EQUITY INVESTORS
02:02:44:00	02:02:45:00	PRIORITIZE HIGH RETURNS BY
02:02:45:00	02:02:48:00	INCREASING RENTS AND CHARGING
02:02:48:00	02:02:48:00	EXCESSIVE FEES LEADING TO
02:02:48:00	02:02:52:00	HOUSING ON AND ON AFFORDABILITY
02:02:52:00	02:02:56:00	HOUSING IS RIGHT NOT TO NOT AND
02:02:56:00	02:02:56:00	SHOULD AND SHOULD BE A RIGHT
02:02:56:00	02:02:57:00	AND NOT A COMMODITY TO BE
02:02:57:00	02:02:59:00	TRADED.
02:02:59:00	02:03:00:00	WE NEED TO DO WHAT WE CAN TO
02:03:00:00	02:03:01:00	SUPPORT OUR RENTERS AND CURB
02:03:01:00	02:03:03:00	EXCESSIVE INCREASES IN RENTS
02:03:03:00	02:03:04:00	THAT ARE DETRIMENTAL TO THE
02:03:04:00	02:03:07:00	STABILITY OF OUR COMMUNITIES
02:03:07:00	02:03:08:00	AND OUR ABILITY TO BE A
02:03:08:00	02:03:11:00	LIVABLE, AFFORDABLE CITY IN THE
02:03:11:00	02:03:11:00	CITY OF BOSTON.
02:03:11:00	02:03:12:00	THE OTHER THING THAT FACTORS
02:03:12:00	02:03:15:00	WHAT HAPPENED 20 1992 WHEN THEY
02:03:15:00	02:03:18:00	HAD THE BALLOT MEASURE DID AWAY
02:03:18:00	02:03:19:00	WITH LESS THAN MY TIME'S UP DID
02:03:19:00	02:03:23:00	AWAY WITH RENT CONTROL ACROSS
02:03:23:00	02:03:23:00	MASSACHUSETTS WE DIDN'T HAVE
02:03:23:00	02:03:26:00	THINGS LIKE ALGORITHM
02:03:26:00	02:03:30:00	ALGORITHMIC RATE SETTING WHICH
02:03:30:00	02:03:30:00	THE DOJ HAS INVESTIGATED AS
02:03:30:00	02:03:33:00	PRICE FIXING.
02:03:33:00	02:03:37:00	THERE ARE MANY MANY WAYS THAT
02:03:37:00	02:03:38:00	HOME RENT PURCHASING HOMES FOR
02:03:38:00	02:03:42:00	RENT IS A IS IS A BUSINESS
02:03:42:00	02:03:45:00	MODEL THAT IT HAS INCREDIBLE
02:03:45:00	02:03:48:00	RETURNS TO THE INVESTORS BUT IT
02:03:48:00	02:03:49:00	IS TO THE DETRIMENT OF OUR
02:03:49:00	02:03:49:00	COMMUNITIES ACROSS
02:03:49:00	02:03:52:00	MASSACHUSETTS AND I AM HOPEFUL
02:03:52:00	02:03:53:00	AND I WILL WORK TO GET THIS
02:03:53:00	02:03:57:00	PASSED ANY WAY I CAN IN OUR

02:04:08:00	02:04:09:00	A COUPLE WEEKS AGO I HAD THE
02:04:09:00	02:04:11:00	OPPORTUNITY TO SPEAK WITH THE

02:04:17:00	02:04:18:00	OUT THERE.
02:04:18:00	02:04:19:00	BUT I DID SOME HOMEWORK ON
02:04:19:00	02:04:22:00	TABLE BEFORE I GOT ON THE CALL
02:04:22:00	02:04:23:00	WITH HER AND LEARNED THAT THEY
02:04:23:00	02:04:25:00	HAD IMPLEMENTED RENT CONTROL
02:04:25:00	02:04:26:00	AND I ASKED HER AT THE END
02:04:26:00	02:04:27:00	OF THE MEETING I SAID JUST
02:04:27:00	02:04:30:00	HOW'S IT GOING OVER THERE?

02:04:31:00	02:04:33:00	QUIRKY THING IN SAINT PAUL CITY
02:04:33:00	02:04:34:00	GOVERNMENT WHERE THE PEOPLE CAN
02:04:34:00	02:04:35:00	VOTE AND IF ENOUGH OF THE
02:04:35:00	02:04:37:00	PEOPLE VOTE THE ORDINANCE IS
02:04:37:00	02:04:41:00	ENACTED WITHOUT CITY COUNCIL OR
02:04:41:00	02:04:42:00	MAYORAL INTERVENTION AND IT
02:04:42:00	02:04:45:00	JUST BECOMES AN ORDINANCE.
02:04:45:00	02:04:45:00	AND I SAID WELL HOW ARE THINGS
02:04:45:00	02:04:46:00	GOING?
02:04:46:00	02:04:47:00	SHE SAID WE HAVE SEEN A DRASTIC
02:04:47:00	02:04:49:00	DROP IN HOUSING PRODUCTION WE
02:04:49:00	02:04:52:00	HAVE SEEN AND EVERY CHANCE WE
02:04:52:00	02:04:52:00	HAVE WE ARE TRYING TO CLAW BACK
02:04:52:00	02:04:56:00	THIS ORDINANCE AS WE CAN AND
02:04:56:00	02:04:56:00	THAT IS JUST IN RECENT TIMES.
02:04:56:00	02:04:59:00	NOW I KNOW THAT'S JUST ONE CITY
02:04:59:00	02:04:59:00	BUT AGAIN WHEN YOU HAVE WHEN
02:04:59:00	02:05:00:00	YOU'RE HAVING THAT CONVERSATION
02:05:00:00	02:05:02:00	WITH SOMEONE AS THE CITY
02:05:02:00	02:05:03:00	COUNCIL PRESIDENT OF THAT CITY
02:05:03:00	02:05:04:00	AND THEY ARE TELLING YOU THIS
02:05:04:00	02:05:06:00	IS WHAT WE'RE FEELING AND THIS
02:05:06:00	02:05:06:00	IS WHAT WE'RE SEEING THAT GIVES
02:05:06:00	02:05:07:00	ME PAUSE AND I KNOW THERE'S
02:05:07:00	02:05:10:00	OTHER STUDIES OUT THERE THAT
02:05:10:00	02:05:10:00	SUPPORT THAT THAT IS THE RESULT
02:05:10:00	02:05:11:00	AND OF COURSE THERE ARE OTHER
02:05:11:00	02:05:13:00	STUDIES OUT THERE THAT SAY IT
02:05:13:00	02:05:14:00	IS A POSITIVE THING FOR FOLKS.
02:05:14:00	02:05:17:00	I PERSONALLY WOULD LIKE TO JUST
02:05:17:00	02:05:18:00	YOU KNOW, I'M NOT GOING TO HIT
02:05:18:00	02:05:20:00	SIT UP HERE AND STOP THIS FROM
02:05:20:00	02:05:21:00	GOING FORWARD BUT I JUST DON'T
02:05:21:00	02:05:22:00	THINK I CAN SUPPORT THIS
02:05:22:00	02:05:24:00	RESOLUTION WITHOUT DOING MORE
02:05:24:00	02:05:25:00	HOMEWORK ON IT AND TRULY
02:05:25:00	02:05:28:00	UNDERSTANDING HOW IT WOULD
02:05:28:00	02:05:28:00	AFFECT BOSTON SPECIFICALLY WHEN
02:05:28:00	02:05:32:00	WE LOOK AT WHERE FOLKS RENT.
02:05:32:00	02:05:34:00	I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW I KNOW 60%
02:05:34:00	02:05:35:00	WE SAY ARE THE RENTERS IN
02:05:35:00	02:05:38:00	BOSTON BUT WHERE ARE THEY FROM
02:05:38:00	02:05:39:00	?
02:05:39:00	02:05:39:00	ARE THEY THE FOLKS THAT NEED TO
02:05:39:00	02:05:40:00	HAVE THEIR RENTS CAPPED?
02:05:40:00	02:05:43:00	I THINK OF, YOU KNOW,
02:05:43:00	02:05:43:00	NEIGHBORHOODS LIKE
02:05:43:00	02:05:44:00	COUNCIL FLYNN HERE IN SOUTH
02:05:44:00	02:05:47:00	BOSTON WHERE IT'S A MAJORITY
02:05:47:00	02:05:47:00	OF RENTING NOW WHERE MANY
02:05:47:00	02:05:50:00	FAMILIES HAVE LEFT I DON'T
02:05:50:00	02:05:51:00	THINK THOSE ARE THE FOLKS THAT
02:05:51:00	02:05:51:00	ARE LIVING THERE NOW I DON'T
02:05:51:00	02:05:52:00	THINK ARE THE FOLKS THAT NEED
02:05:52:00	02:05:52:00	IT THERE.
02:05:52:00	02:05:54:00	THE YOUNG FOLKS WITH WITH MONEY
02:05:54:00	02:05:55:00	THAT COME IN.
02:05:55:00	02:05:58:00	SO I'D LIKE TO GET A MORE
02:05:58:00	02:05:58:00	ACCURATE NUMBER AND
02:05:58:00	02:05:59:00	REPRESENTATION AND JUST FEEL
02:05:59:00	02:06:02:00	LIKE WE SHOULD PROBABLY DO A
02:06:02:00	02:06:02:00	LITTLE BIT MORE HOMEWORK ON
02:06:02:00	02:06:03:00	THIS AT LEAST FOR MYSELF.
02:06:03:00	02:06:05:00	BUT I THINK FOR THE GREATER
02:06:05:00	02:06:06:00	GOOD AS WELL BEFORE I COULD DO
02:06:06:00	02:06:09:00	ANYTHING ON THIS RESOLUTION.

02:06:16:00	02:06:20:00	HE ASKED SEVERAL QUESTIONS.
02:06:20:00	02:06:21:00	I THINK HE WAS LOOKING FOR
02:06:21:00	02:06:24:00	ANSWERS THAT WON'T BE ANSWERED
02:06:24:00	02:06:26:00	HERE AT THIS TIME BUT MAYBE IN
02:06:26:00	02:06:27:00	A PUBLIC HEARING WOULD BE MORE
02:06:27:00	02:06:27:00	APPROPRIATE.
02:06:27:00	02:06:31:00	I THINK WE PROBABLY ALL HAVE
02:06:31:00	02:06:32:00	QUESTIONS ON THE BALLOT
02:06:32:00	02:06:35:00	INITIATIVE BECAUSE WE PROBABLY

02:16:42:00	02:16:45:00	UPHOLD WITH WITH REAFFIRMING

02:16:53:00	02:16:53:00	MAINTAINING PUBLIC SAFETY.
02:16:53:00	02:16:56:00	AND I REALLY URGE MY COLLEAGUES
02:16:56:00	02:16:57:00	TO STAND WITH US THIS AFTERNOON
02:16:57:00	02:17:00:00	AND VOTE AFFIRMATIVELY IN
02:17:00:00	02:17:00:00	SUPPORT OF THIS.
02:17:00:00	02:17:05:00	THE TRUST ACT IS THE FOUNDATION
02:17:05:00	02:17:08:00	OF BUILDING GOOD COMMUNITY
02:17:08:00	02:17:09:00	POLICING ACROSS THE CITY SO
02:17:09:00	02:17:11:00	THAT ANY IMMIGRANT FAMILY,
02:17:11:00	02:17:12:00	REGARDLESS OF WHAT THEIR STATUS
02:17:12:00	02:17:13:00	IS, IS NOT AFRAID TO LIFT THE
02:17:13:00	02:17:16:00	PHONE AND CALL THE POLICE IF
02:17:16:00	02:17:17:00	THEY NEED HELP, IF IT'S A
02:17:17:00	02:17:19:00	DOMESTIC VIOLENCE SITUATION OR
02:17:19:00	02:17:23:00	WHATEVER THAT THEY'RE NOT
02:17:23:00	02:17:23:00	AFRAID TO REPORT CRIME BECAUSE
02:17:23:00	02:17:27:00	OF FEAR THAT THE POLICE
02:17:27:00	02:17:27:00	DEPARTMENT WILL COOPERATE WITH
02:17:27:00	02:17:31:00	FEDERAL AUTHORITIES AND HAND
02:17:31:00	02:17:32:00	THEM OVER FOR THE PORT
02:17:32:00	02:17:32:00	DEPORTATION.
02:17:32:00	02:17:35:00	THE OTHER THING TO REMEMBER IS
02:17:35:00	02:17:39:00	THAT WE ARE NOT SAYING IF IF IF
02:17:39:00	02:17:40:00	THE FEDERAL AUTHORITIES COME TO
02:17:40:00	02:17:43:00	THE BPD WITH A WARRANT, A CRIME
02:17:43:00	02:17:44:00	FOR A CRIMINAL A CRIMINAL
02:17:44:00	02:17:47:00	CONVICTION AND A WARRANT THAT
02:17:47:00	02:17:50:00	THE CPD CAN IN THAT INSTANCE
02:17:50:00	02:17:54:00	SUPPORT THE FEDERAL AUTHORITIES
02:17:54:00	02:17:58:00	IN APPREHENDING THAT CRIMINAL,
02:17:58:00	02:17:58:00	THEY HAVE A WARRANT.
02:17:58:00	02:17:59:00	BUT WHAT'S HAPPENING ON OUR
02:17:59:00	02:18:01:00	STREETS IS NOT THAT THIS
02:18:01:00	02:18:02:00	MORNING IN THE VICINITY
02:18:02:00	02:18:06:00	OF BRIGHTON HIGH SCHOOL A

02:18:17:00	02:18:17:00	ELEMENTARY SCHOOL AGE CHILD IN
02:18:17:00	02:18:18:00	THE CAR.
02:18:18:00	02:18:21:00	THIS IS IT.
02:18:21:00	02:18:24:00	THIS IS INTIMIDATION AND
02:18:24:00	02:18:24:00	FRIGHTENING OUR IMMIGRANT
02:18:24:00	02:18:27:00	COMMUNITY AS WE'VE ALREADY
02:18:27:00	02:18:28:00	HEARD FROM SOME OF MY
02:18:28:00	02:18:32:00	COLLEAGUES ARE OUR COMMUNITIES
02:18:32:00	02:18:32:00	ARE IN FEAR.
02:18:32:00	02:18:33:00	THEY'RE AFRAID TO TAKE THEIR
02:18:33:00	02:18:33:00	KIDS TO SCHOOL.
02:18:33:00	02:18:36:00	THEY'RE AFRAID TO GO TO CHURCH.
02:18:36:00	02:18:39:00	ICE PARKED RIGHT OUTSIDE THE

02:18:51:00	02:18:52:00	WAY WE WANT TO LIVE AND I URGE
02:18:52:00	02:18:53:00	MY COLLEAGUES TO SUPPORT THIS
02:18:53:00	02:18:55:00	RESOLUTION.
02:18:55:00	02:18:56:00	THANK YOU.
02:18:56:00	02:18:56:00	THANK YOU, JARED.
02:18:56:00	02:18:59:00	AND I JUST ASK YOU THE CHAIR

02:18:59:00	02:19:01:00	NEAR THE FLOOR.
02:19:01:00	02:19:05:00	THANK YOU, MADAM PRESIDENT.
02:19:05:00	02:19:05:00	IF WE TRULY STAND FOR OUR
02:19:05:00	02:19:06:00	IMMIGRANT COMMUNITIES HERE IN
02:19:06:00	02:19:09:00	THE CITY OF BOSTON, THIS IS A
02:19:09:00	02:19:10:00	RESOLUTION THAT WE HAVE TO
02:19:10:00	02:19:13:00	SUPPORT SUPPORTED BECAUSE AS I
02:19:13:00	02:19:16:00	MENTIONED EARLIER, THESE
02:19:16:00	02:19:16:00	COMMUNITIES THAT WERE
02:19:16:00	02:19:17:00	HIGHLIGHTED HERE TODAY IN THIS
02:19:17:00	02:19:20:00	RESOLUTION ARE HURTING EVERY
02:19:20:00	02:19:23:00	SINGLE DAY AND WHAT WE'RE
02:19:23:00	02:19:24:00	REALLY AND TIRED OF THE
02:19:24:00	02:19:27:00	NARRATIVE THAT WE'RE FOCUSING
02:19:27:00	02:19:28:00	TOO MUCH ON THE TRUMP
02:19:28:00	02:19:28:00	ADMINISTRATION ON A FEDERAL
02:19:28:00	02:19:31:00	GOVERNMENT ISSUE.
02:19:31:00	02:19:32:00	THIS IS A LOCAL ISSUE AND I
02:19:32:00	02:19:35:00	THINK COUNCIL COUNCILOR AND WE
02:19:35:00	02:19:36:00	WERE SPEAKING EARLIER ABOUT THE
02:19:36:00	02:19:36:00	SITUATION THAT HAPPENED IN
02:19:36:00	02:19:38:00	BRIGHTON THAT'S A LOCAL ISSUE.
02:19:38:00	02:19:39:00	IT HAPPENED RIGHT OUTSIDE
02:19:39:00	02:19:41:00	OF BRIGHTON HIGH SCHOOL OF A
02:19:41:00	02:19:45:00	LOCAL MOTHER THIS PAST FRIDAY I
02:19:45:00	02:19:46:00	HAD TWO ICE VEHICLES IN THE
02:19:46:00	02:19:49:00	PARKING LOT OF PLEASANT CAFE IN
02:19:49:00	02:19:50:00	ROOSEVELT WASHINGTON STREET
02:19:50:00	02:19:54:00	DURING THE DISMISSAL TIMES
02:19:54:00	02:19:54:00	OF THE SCHOOL IN THE CATHOLIC
02:19:54:00	02:19:57:00	SCHOOL WHICH WERE RIGHT UP THE
02:19:57:00	02:19:57:00	STREET.
02:19:57:00	02:20:00:00	THESE ARE THINGS THAT ARE
02:20:00:00	02:20:01:00	IMPACTING OUR RESIDENTS AND
02:20:01:00	02:20:04:00	WHAT'S HAPPENING IS THAT I GET
02:20:04:00	02:20:04:00	PHONE CALLS FROM THE BUSINESS
02:20:04:00	02:20:08:00	OWNERS, FROM THE PARENTS, FROM
02:20:08:00	02:20:09:00	RESIDENTS THAT SEE THESE THINGS
02:20:09:00	02:20:11:00	HAPPENING AND THEY'RE ASKING
02:20:11:00	02:20:12:00	ME WHAT CAN WE DO?
02:20:12:00	02:20:16:00	AND AS A CITY COUNCILOR, YOU
02:20:16:00	02:20:16:00	KNOW, I DON'T HAVE ALL THE
02:20:16:00	02:20:20:00	ANSWERS BUT JUST HOPING JUST
02:20:20:00	02:20:20:00	HOPE AND TRY TO WORK WITH THEM.
02:20:20:00	02:20:21:00	JUST SAY THAT THEY'RE GOING TO
02:20:21:00	02:20:23:00	BE EITHER YOU KNOW, OKAY OR
02:20:23:00	02:20:27:00	JUST AVOID THE AREA FOR THE
02:20:27:00	02:20:27:00	MOMENT THERE'S NEVER A RIGHT
02:20:27:00	02:20:28:00	ANSWER.
02:20:28:00	02:20:32:00	SO I MEAN IF YOU WANT TO BE IN
02:20:32:00	02:20:34:00	MY SHOES ONE DAY AND TAKE THOSE
02:20:34:00	02:20:35:00	PHONE CALLS, I INVITE YOU
02:20:35:00	02:20:36:00	BECAUSE IT'S NOT EASY TO DEAL
02:20:36:00	02:20:40:00	WITH.
02:20:40:00	02:20:41:00	AGAIN, THIS IS VERY MUCH A
02:20:41:00	02:20:41:00	LOCAL ISSUE.
02:20:41:00	02:20:45:00	I JUST I REALLY HOPE THAT WE
02:20:45:00	02:20:45:00	GET TO PASS THIS ONE TODAY
02:20:45:00	02:20:49:00	BECAUSE THIS IS MORE OF A SORT
02:20:49:00	02:20:50:00	OF A SIGN AND IN A STATEMENT TO
02:20:50:00	02:20:52:00	OUR COMMUNITIES THAT ARE
02:20:52:00	02:20:55:00	HURTING THAT WE STAND WITH THEM
02:20:55:00	02:20:55:00	.
02:20:55:00	02:20:56:00	AND ALSO WHEN I WAS PREPPING
02:20:56:00	02:21:00:00	FOR SOMETHING EARLIER THIS WEEK
02:21:00:00	02:21:01:00	I HAD A CONVERSATION WITH OUR
02:21:01:00	02:21:01:00	BOSTON POLICE DEPARTMENT AND
02:21:01:00	02:21:03:00	THIS IS SOMETHING THAT THEY
02:21:03:00	02:21:04:00	AGREE WITH BECAUSE IT MAKES OUR
02:21:04:00	02:21:07:00	COMMUNITY SAFER.
02:21:07:00	02:21:08:00	THE FACT THAT WE DO PRIDE
02:21:08:00	02:21:09:00	OURSELVES IN COMMUNITY POLICING
02:21:09:00	02:21:11:00	HERE IN THE CITY OF BOSTON THIS
02:21:11:00	02:21:12:00	ALLOWS THAT TO KEEP MOVING
02:21:12:00	02:21:16:00	FORWARD BY WORKING WITH THE
02:21:16:00	02:21:16:00	PEOPLE AND NOT INSTILLING THE
02:21:16:00	02:21:16:00	FEAR.
02:21:16:00	02:21:17:00	THAT'S WHAT I'LL SAY AND THAT'S
02:21:17:00	02:21:19:00	WHAT'S IMPORTANT IS THEY THANK
02:21:19:00	02:21:19:00	YOU.
02:21:19:00	02:21:20:00	THANK YOU.
02:21:20:00	02:21:20:00	THE CHAIR RECOGNIZES
02:21:20:00	02:21:22:00	COUNCILOR FLYNN YOU HAVE FOR
02:21:22:00	02:21:23:00	THANK YOU, MADAM CHAIR.
02:21:23:00	02:21:27:00	AND I THOUGHT COUNCILOR WEBER
02:21:27:00	02:21:28:00	WAS GOING TO HAVE A HEARING ON
02:21:28:00	02:21:28:00	THIS.
02:21:28:00	02:21:31:00	I WOULD HAVE LIKED TO HAVE
02:21:31:00	02:21:31:00	ASKED THE BOSTON POLICE SOME
02:21:31:00	02:21:35:00	OF THESE QUESTIONS THAT HAVE
02:21:35:00	02:21:35:00	COME UP FOR COMMENTS THAT HAVE
02:21:35:00	02:21:38:00	COME UP ON EXACTLY WHAT THEY'RE
02:21:38:00	02:21:39:00	DOING IF THEY ARE WORKING WITH
02:21:39:00	02:21:42:00	VARIOUS FEDERAL AUTHORITIES.
02:21:42:00	02:21:43:00	I DO LIKE TO KNOW AS MUCH AS I
02:21:43:00	02:21:46:00	CAN ABOUT A RESOLUTION BEFORE I
02:21:46:00	02:21:50:00	VOTE ON SOMETHING THAT'S WHY
02:21:50:00	02:21:51:00	SOME PEOPLE OBJECT TO A
02:21:51:00	02:21:52:00	RESOLUTION SO YOU CAN HAVE A
02:21:52:00	02:21:55:00	FORMAL HEARING BUT WE REALLY
02:21:55:00	02:21:58:00	HAVEN'T HEARD AT ALL FROM THE
02:21:58:00	02:21:59:00	CITY ADMINISTRATION OR THE
02:21:59:00	02:22:02:00	BOSTON POLICE ON THIS SPECIFIC
02:22:02:00	02:22:02:00	ISSUE.
02:22:02:00	02:22:03:00	THAT'S WHY I THOUGHT IT WAS
02:22:03:00	02:22:06:00	IMPORTANT FOR RESIDENTS TO KNOW
02:22:06:00	02:22:06:00	EXACTLY WHAT THIS RESOLUTION
02:22:06:00	02:22:09:00	WOULD DO AND WHAT IT WOULDN'T
02:22:09:00	02:22:09:00	DO.
02:22:09:00	02:22:13:00	I ALSO THINK IT'S IMPORTANT FOR
02:22:13:00	02:22:14:00	THIS BODY TO FOCUS ON LOCAL
02:22:14:00	02:22:17:00	ISSUES IN CITY ISSUES WE HAD A
02:22:17:00	02:22:21:00	MAJOR ISSUE MAJOR MEETING THE
02:22:21:00	02:22:21:00	OTHER NIGHT ABOUT MASS IN CASH
02:22:21:00	02:22:25:00	HELD IN ROXBURY.
02:22:25:00	02:22:26:00	I THINK IT WAS A FOUR HOUR
02:22:26:00	02:22:26:00	MEETING.
02:22:26:00	02:22:28:00	MOST OF IT WAS PUBLIC TESTIMONY
02:22:28:00	02:22:29:00	.
02:22:29:00	02:22:29:00	THEY'RE TALKING ABOUT PUBLIC
02:22:29:00	02:22:32:00	SAFETY, QUALITY OF LIFE ISSUES
02:22:32:00	02:22:32:00	.
02:22:32:00	02:22:33:00	THOSE AND THOSE ARE ISSUES THAT
02:22:33:00	02:22:36:00	ARE CRITICAL TO THE CITY AS
02:22:36:00	02:22:36:00	WELL.
02:22:36:00	02:22:37:00	MANY OF MY CITY COLLEAGUES,
02:22:37:00	02:22:37:00	CITY COUNCIL COLLEAGUES WERE
02:22:37:00	02:22:37:00	THERE.
02:22:37:00	02:22:40:00	MANY WEREN'T THERE.
02:22:40:00	02:22:40:00	BUT WE'VE LISTENED TO THE
02:22:40:00	02:22:43:00	RESIDENTS WE HAD AN IDEA ABOUT
02:22:43:00	02:22:44:00	WHAT THE RESOLUTION WAS ABOUT
02:22:44:00	02:22:47:00	WHAT IT WASN'T ABOUT AND WE
02:22:47:00	02:22:48:00	HEARD DIRECTLY FROM RESIDENTS.
02:22:48:00	02:22:51:00	THAT'S WHAT THAT'S WHAT I LIKE
02:22:51:00	02:22:52:00	TO DO IS HEAR DIRECTLY FROM
02:22:52:00	02:22:53:00	RESIDENTS BUT TO FOCUS ON CITY
02:22:53:00	02:22:55:00	ISSUES AND I'M DISAPPOINTED
02:22:55:00	02:22:59:00	THAT WE COULDN'T HAVE A HEARING
02:22:59:00	02:22:59:00	ON THIS.
02:22:59:00	02:23:00:00	I THINK IT IS IMPORTANT TO
02:23:00:00	02:23:03:00	DISCUSS THESE ISSUES.
02:23:03:00	02:23:04:00	I WOULD LIKE TO BE ABLE TO
02:23:04:00	02:23:04:00	LEARN FROM POLICE COMMISSIONER
02:23:04:00	02:23:07:00	COX ABOUT WHAT THIS LETTER
02:23:07:00	02:23:07:00	DOES.
02:23:07:00	02:23:08:00	THE ADMINISTRATION CERTAINLY
02:23:08:00	02:23:11:00	HAS TALKED TO THE COMMISSIONER
02:23:11:00	02:23:11:00	ABOUT THESE ISSUES.
02:23:11:00	02:23:14:00	THEY'VE TALKED TO LEGAL
02:23:14:00	02:23:15:00	COUNCILOR BUT THE CITY
02:23:15:00	02:23:18:00	COUNCIL DOESN'T DO ANY OF THAT
02:23:18:00	02:23:18:00	.
02:23:18:00	02:23:22:00	WE JUST VOTE ON A RESOLUTION.
02:23:22:00	02:23:23:00	WE'RE ALMOST A RUBBER STAMP.
02:23:23:00	02:23:24:00	IT'S TIME FOR US TO FOCUS ON
02:23:24:00	02:23:26:00	LOCAL ISSUES.
02:23:26:00	02:23:27:00	THANK YOU, MADAM CHAIR.
02:23:27:00	02:23:27:00	THANK YOU.
02:23:27:00	02:23:30:00	I DO SEE THAT THERE ARE LIGHTS
02:23:30:00	02:23:30:00	ON.
02:23:30:00	02:23:31:00	I WILL GO TO YOU BUT I WANT TO
02:23:31:00	02:23:32:00	THANK MY COLLEAGUE SO MUCH FOR
02:23:32:00	02:23:33:00	FILING THIS LETTER.
02:23:33:00	02:23:34:00	YOU KNOW, THE MAYOR SAID
02:23:34:00	02:23:35:00	SOMETHING YESTERDAY THAT WAS
02:23:35:00	02:23:37:00	REALLY POIGNANT NO AMERICAN
02:23:37:00	02:23:38:00	PRESIDENT SHOULD BE DECLARING
02:23:38:00	02:23:41:00	WAR ON ANY AMERICAN CITY.
02:23:41:00	02:23:42:00	WE IN THE CITY OF BOSTON HAVE
02:23:42:00	02:23:42:00	OUR HEADS DOWN TRYING TO DO OUR
02:23:42:00	02:23:44:00	BEST, PROTECTING OUR RESIDENTS
02:23:44:00	02:23:45:00	AND ARE NOT THE ANTAGONIST
02:23:45:00	02:23:45:00	HERE.
02:23:45:00	02:23:46:00	IT'S REALLY IMPORTANT WE ARE
02:23:46:00	02:23:49:00	NOT YOU KNOW, WE ARE NOT
02:23:49:00	02:23:49:00	SEEKING A FIGHT THAT'S COMING
02:23:49:00	02:23:52:00	FROM THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT
02:23:52:00	02:23:53:00	WHEN OUR NEIGHBORS ARE BEING
02:23:53:00	02:23:53:00	DISAPPEARED OFF THE STREET THAT
02:23:53:00	02:23:56:00	IS A LOCAL ISSUE WHEN OUR KIDS
02:23:56:00	02:23:57:00	ARE AFRAID TO GO TO OUR BOSTON
02:23:57:00	02:24:00:00	PUBLIC SCHOOLS THAT IS A LOCAL
02:24:00:00	02:24:04:00	ISSUE WHEN OUR ECONOMY IS
02:24:04:00	02:24:04:00	SUFFERING BECAUSE WORKERS WON'T
02:24:04:00	02:24:05:00	SHOW UP BECAUSE THEY'RE AFRAID
02:24:05:00	02:24:08:00	OF BEING DISAPPEAR AND THAT IS
02:24:08:00	02:24:09:00	A LOCAL ISSUE FOR OUR CITY.
02:24:09:00	02:24:10:00	AND SO I WANT TO THANK OUR
02:24:10:00	02:24:11:00	COLLEAGUES.
02:24:11:00	02:24:12:00	I HAVE A COLLEAGUE HERE THE
02:24:12:00	02:24:13:00	OTHER DAY WHO CALLED ME AND I
02:24:13:00	02:24:13:00	THOUGHT WE WERE GOING TO HAVE A
02:24:13:00	02:24:15:00	FUN CONVERSATION ABOUT
02:24:15:00	02:24:16:00	SOMETHING THAT HAPPENED AT AN
02:24:16:00	02:24:17:00	EVENT WE WERE AT RECENTLY AND
02:24:17:00	02:24:20:00	INSTEAD SHE CALLED TO TELL
02:24:20:00	02:24:20:00	ME THAT ONE OF HER NEIGHBORS
02:24:20:00	02:24:21:00	HAD BEEN TAKEN BY ICE.
02:24:21:00	02:24:23:00	THIS IS A BODY THAT UNANIMOUSLY
02:24:23:00	02:24:24:00	AFFIRMED REAFFIRMED THE TRUST
02:24:24:00	02:24:27:00	ACT AND STAND BY.
02:24:27:00	02:24:28:00	WHAT WE KNOW TO BE TRUE IS THAT
02:24:28:00	02:24:29:00	WE HAVE BETTER COMMUNITY
02:24:29:00	02:24:31:00	POLICING.
02:24:31:00	02:24:32:00	WE HAVE BETTER POLICING WHEN
02:24:32:00	02:24:33:00	THERE IS TRUST WITH OUR LAW
02:24:33:00	02:24:35:00	ENFORCEMENT, WHEN OUR LOCAL LAW
02:24:35:00	02:24:36:00	ENFORCEMENT IS ENFORCING THE
02:24:36:00	02:24:38:00	LAW REGARDLESS OF IMMIGRATION
02:24:38:00	02:24:39:00	STATUS.
02:24:39:00	02:24:40:00	AND SO THE LETTER TO THE
02:24:40:00	02:24:43:00	FEDERAL ADMINISTRATION SAYING
02:24:43:00	02:24:43:00	STOP ANTAGONIZING US, WE ARE
02:24:43:00	02:24:46:00	GOING TO ABIDE BY OUR LAWS IS
02:24:46:00	02:24:47:00	ONE THAT I STAND BY AND ONE
02:24:47:00	02:24:47:00	THAT I BELIEVE EVERYONE IN THIS
02:24:47:00	02:24:49:00	BODY STOOD BY WHEN WE REAFFIRM
02:24:49:00	02:24:50:00	THE TRUST ACT.
02:24:50:00	02:24:51:00	SO I STAND BY THAT AGAIN TODAY
02:24:51:00	02:24:53:00	I THANK MY COLLEAGUES FOR THEIR
02:24:53:00	02:24:54:00	WORK.
02:24:54:00	02:24:54:00	I THINK ABOUT THE INCREASES
02:24:54:00	02:24:55:00	THAT WE'VE SEEN IN DOMESTIC
02:24:55:00	02:24:58:00	VIOLENCE IN OUR CITY AS A
02:24:58:00	02:24:58:00	RESULT OF IMMIGRANTS NOT
02:24:58:00	02:25:01:00	FEELING COMFORTABLE CALLING THE
02:25:01:00	02:25:02:00	POLICE BECAUSE THEY DON'T KNOW
02:25:02:00	02:25:02:00	IF THERE'S GOING TO BE
02:25:02:00	02:25:05:00	INTERACTIONS WITH ICE.
02:25:05:00	02:25:06:00	WE ARE SEEING MORE HARM AS A
02:25:06:00	02:25:07:00	RESULT OF THE ACTIONS OF THIS
02:25:07:00	02:25:09:00	FEDERAL ADMINISTRATION.
02:25:09:00	02:25:10:00	HARM THAT HURTS OUR RESIDENTS,
02:25:10:00	02:25:10:00	HURTS MY NEIGHBORS BUT THEY
02:25:10:00	02:25:13:00	SPEAK SPANISH OR THEY SPEAK
02:25:13:00	02:25:14:00	HAITIAN CREOLE.
02:25:14:00	02:25:14:00	THAT'S A LOCAL ISSUE FOR ME AND
02:25:14:00	02:25:17:00	I'M VERY, VERY GRATEFUL TO MY
02:25:17:00	02:25:18:00	COLLEAGUES FOR FILING THIS
02:25:18:00	02:25:18:00	RESOLUTION.
02:25:18:00	02:25:21:00	THE CHAIR RECOGNIZES FOLKS WHO
02:25:21:00	02:25:22:00	HAVE NOT SPOKEN SO I'M GOING TO

02:25:36:00	02:25:37:00	THAT THIS IS NOT A LOCAL ISSUE
02:25:37:00	02:25:40:00	IS OFFENSIVE.
02:25:40:00	02:25:41:00	THERE WAS A MOTHER WHO WAS
02:25:41:00	02:25:44:00	RECENTLY TAKEN IN IN BOSTON IN
02:25:44:00	02:25:45:00	FRONT OF HER 11 AND NINE YEAR
02:25:45:00	02:25:48:00	OLD CHILDREN WITH NO KNOWN
02:25:48:00	02:25:52:00	CRIMINAL ACTIVITY AND NOW BP'S
02:25:52:00	02:25:55:00	HAS TO WRAP THEIR ARMS AROUND
02:25:55:00	02:25:56:00	THESE CHILDREN AND FIGURE OUT
02:25:56:00	02:25:56:00	HOW TO TAKE CARE OF THEM.
02:25:56:00	02:26:00:00	OUR CHILDREN THIS IS A LOCAL
02:26:00:00	02:26:03:00	ISSUE.
02:26:03:00	02:26:04:00	SORRY FOR GETTING EMOTIONAL BUT
02:26:04:00	02:26:06:00	THIS IS WHAT WE'RE DEALING WITH
02:26:06:00	02:26:09:00	HERE.
02:26:09:00	02:26:13:00	YES, A RESOLUTION IS
02:26:13:00	02:26:13:00	CEREMONIAL.
02:26:13:00	02:26:13:00	IT'S NON-BINDING.
02:26:13:00	02:26:17:00	WE ARE SENDING A MESSAGE TO OUR
02:26:17:00	02:26:18:00	RESIDENTS AND OUR NEIGHBORS

02:26:35:00	02:26:36:00	IN GOVERNMENT.
02:26:36:00	02:26:39:00	THOSE WHO BOSTONIANS HAVE
02:26:39:00	02:26:44:00	ENTRUSTED WITH THE WAY THAT WE
02:26:44:00	02:26:47:00	DO THINGS WITH WHO WE YOU KNOW,
02:26:47:00	02:26:51:00	I THINK IT'S CLEAR THAT BOSTON
02:26:51:00	02:26:52:00	TRUSTS MAYOR WU TO DEAL WITH
02:26:52:00	02:26:52:00	THIS ISSUE.
02:26:52:00	02:26:55:00	IT'S CLEAR ABSOLUTELY CRYSTAL
02:26:55:00	02:26:55:00	CLEAR.
02:26:55:00	02:26:59:00	SO WHY DON'T SOME OF OUR
02:26:59:00	02:26:59:00	COLLEAGUES TRUST MAYOR ROSE

02:27:17:00	02:27:18:00	SUPREME COURT HAS GIVEN A
02:27:18:00	02:27:22:00	LICENSE TO SIMPLY SAY IF YOU'RE

02:27:26:00	02:27:32:00	LANGUAGE, THEY CAN TARGET YOU.
02:27:32:00	02:27:33:00	SO IT'S VERY CLEAR WHERE I WANT

02:27:44:00	02:27:44:00	UNCOMFORTABLE.

02:27:47:00	02:27:48:00	CAN WAVER.
02:27:48:00	02:27:50:00	THIS ISN'T AN ISSUE WHERE YOU
02:27:50:00	02:27:55:00	CAN SAY YOU KNOW, I STAND WITH
