During the Mayor's speech he said, "Meeting with business
leaders like you is very important and valuable,
especially as San Jose and Silicon Valley continue
to face challenging times together."

Guests listen to the Mayor as he continued his speech,
"...San Jose will deal with this as we have done
successfully before.  We will make tough decisions
in partnership with our community; focus on protecting
the most important services for our city; join with our
residents, businesses and other cities to fight for a fair
budget that will help keep our economy working;
use all our community resources strategically
to help create jobs and help businesses."
