"Having listened closely to my fellow San Franciscans and our local officials, and after the largest and safest Dreamforce in our history, I do not believe the National Guard is needed to address safety in San Francisco,"
"My earlier comment came from an abundance of caution around the event, and I sincerely apologize for the concern it caused,"
"It's my firm belief that our city makes the most progress when we all work together in a spirit of partnership. I remain deeply grateful to Mayor Lurie, SFPD, and all our partners, and am fully committed to a safer, stronger San Francisco."
Marc Benioff apologized for suggesting the National Guard be called into San Francisco and said he no longer believes it is needed to address safety. He said his earlier comment came "from an abundance of caution" around Dreamforce and apologized for the concern it caused. He said he listened closely to San Franciscans and local officials and expressed gratitude to Mayor Lurie, SFPD, and partners. He said Dreamforce was the largest in Salesforce history with more than 50,000 attendees and that Salesforce hired hundreds of its own security personnel. Salesforce declined further comment.
