"When I was recently asked about federal resources, my point was this: each year, to make Dreamforce as safe as possible for 50,000 attendees, we add 200 additional law-enforcement professionals-- coordinated across city, state, and other partners. It's proof that collaboration works and a reminder that the city needs more resources to keep San Franciscans safe year-round."
"I trust our local law enforcement. Crime is down 30%. We have a long way to go but I trust our local law enforcement to do their job and keep Salesforce and Dreamforce people safe."
"To invite chaos into our city. No, Mr. Benioff needs to know that that's not the solution. And I want the president to know we don't want his version of law and order."
Marc Benioff backed away from an earlier call for President Trump to send the National Guard to San Francisco and clarified his position on X. He said Dreamforce brings 50,000 attendees and that organizers add 200 additional law-enforcement professionals each year, coordinated across city, state, and partners, and framed that as evidence the city needs more resources year-round. Mayor Daniel Lurie defended local law enforcement and cited a 30% drop in crime. San Francisco District Attorney Brooke Jenkins rejected the National Guard proposal as chaotic. Elon Musk also commented, calling downtown a "drug zombie apocalypse".
