"SAN FRANCISCO (KGO) -- The debate over bringing the National Guard to San Francisco is still top of mind for many as the Dreamforce convention kicks into Day two. Salesforce CEO Marc Benioff would like to stop talking about the comments he made last week to the New York Times, saying he'd support President Trump sending federal troops here."
""I'm going to limit my comments today to Dreamforce, to agentforce," Benioff said. "I want to make sure you have a safe experience here specially everyone here who is from out of town that is also why we have brought over over 200 of our own police, to make sure that everyone who attends Dreamforce, including all of you do have a good experience.""
The debate over bringing the National Guard to San Francisco intensified as Dreamforce convened. Marc Benioff expressed support for President Trump sending federal troops to San Francisco in comments to the New York Times, then sought to limit further public discussion during Dreamforce. Benioff emphasized attendee safety, noted Salesforce brought over over 200 of its own police, and pledged $1 million for larger hiring bonuses and $15 billion to the city over five years. San Francisco District Attorney Brooke Jenkins and other leaders planned a news conference to denounce Benioff's remarks and highlight a claimed 30% crime reduction over three years.
