28 AnonymousHear hear! As a fluent English speaker, I too have had occasional issues communicating with local law enforcement officers. I have been fortunate to be able to clarify situations when needed. If my English language skills were not so strong (I have a BA in English), or if conditions were critical and time of the essence, overcoming the misperceptions of public service providers might end badly, or worse.

45 Tony LuAs an immigration attorney and the son of Asian immigrants, I deeply feel the need equal access to critical public services by all residents. Please develop and implement a policy that will guarantee that all residents of San Francisco, regardless of nationality and language ability, will feel safe their own city.
