Mayor London Breed today refused to support the findings of the city\u2019s draft report on reparations<\/a>, saying she will wait to comment until the final version is released.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

She also said she does not intend to support Sup. Shamann Walton\u2019s proposal to spend $50 million on the future work of the Reparations Committee.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is the first time Breed has made any public statement about the reparations draft, which has unanimous support at the Board of Supes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

During a special Question Time, delayed by technical problems a week ago, Sup. Shamann Walton asked her directly if she would support the draft.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI know the committee is still working,\u201d she said. \u201cI look forward to receiving the final recommendations and will make clear in regards to my support at that time.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Walton asked if the mayor planned to support his supplemental appropriation to get the reparations work started on a larger level. \u201cI have no plans to support that request,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Walton told me tonight that \u201cI hope to get the mayor\u2019s support and all of my colleagues\u2019 support. Hopefully we can get the supplemental heard at the Budget and Appropriations Committee soon.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The mayor spent most of her time discussing the importance of police, and thanked the police and district attorney for their work on the Bob Lee case.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

She said that the case was solved and the prosecution moving forward because of close cooperation between the cops and the district attorney\u2014a not-so-subtle jab at former DA Chesa Boudin, who earned the ire of the Police Officers Association and to a certain extent the chief by indicting officers and filling wrongful-shooting cases.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Breed\u2019s law-and-order position has been at the forefront of her politics<\/a> for the past few months as she prepares to run for re-election in a city with a lingering, flawed media narrative about crime\u2014a narrative she now has to own<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
