state and local tax credits they got for the next five years. itthey were losing money would be one thing. they admitted this was part of a highly profitable air-conditioning business in the united states. the storydmitted in they were removing the plant because the shareholders wanted more money and the chief executive and the other top guys there bonuses depend on the value of the share. do something like that you are going to have to pay an i bet you anything if they let that guy go, running the company, he would get a golden parachute. it's about time the workers of this country got some golden parachutes.

she is not against all trade deals. she believes in competition, but it has to be fair. they have been trying to do this last 15ears, but in the the trail had picked up steam. the old understanding we had about corporations is totally broken down. when hillary and i met in law school 100 years ago this is the way corporate law was talk -- was taught. corporations are not citizens, they are creations of the state. they get certain kinds of liability from certain kinds of losses. they have an obligation to all of their constituents evenly. rushve seen this headlong to say here are the shareholders appear and everybody else down here. activist shareholder

practically ruled out chemical enforcement out of dupont, he was trying to force them to sell a division that was making money makehat he admitted would twice as much within three years and was serving customers. said i don't care, i want my money. that is capital gains today. hillary thinks we ought to link than that capital gains time to two or three years. there will be much of that business. she thinks when people leave we have to charge them an extra tax and spend more money to take care of the workers that have been left behind and give incentives to bring jobs back to america. just so you won't think this is when i ran for president in 1992, my state was one of only eight states in america that gained manufacturing jobs in the previous decade.

labor is a smaller percentage of all manufacturing because it is highly productive. what really matters now is the cost of material, energy, and transportation. argument for getting into advanced manufacturing is simple. since we have the biggest market in the world, let's save the transportation cost and make more things here. it makes a lot of sense. [applause] thelly we shouldn't give two thirds of the new jobs in this country, for 20 years they have been made by small business. we dropped out of the top 10 inntries in the world business formation. we have to get back. law is the second best law he has signed after the health-care bill, i don't care

what anybody has told you, it will stop wall street from wrecking main street. it -- onene whole and whole and it -- there is one it. it was a terrible mistake, a lot of people voted for that bill. whattly they didn't know they were doing. it was an honest terrible mistake. a lot of problem is people are worried about the last war instead of this one. clearlyclearly stead -- says loans to small businesses, to farmers, to entrepreneurs should not be subject to the same kind of rules that $80 -- ion loans many places are doing that. hillary wants to say let's go back to community banking.

more than 90% of all the money loaned ever under the law, let's get funds to our small businesses, get funds people. we can do that. we have some barriers. barriers toty of what she believes is necessary. if we are going to have shared thaterity, we can't do until every single american has the opportunity to live up to her or his god-given ability. everybody in this country. we have to tear the barriers down. she really believes that we have to have comprehensive immigration reform. she really believes we have to protect the dreamers.

she really believes we have to stop them a dogging this issue. this issue.gogueing indian country has the highest rate of sovereignty than any group in the united states. didn't have anything to do with immigrants. for somebody to stand up and say they are going to send back 11.5 million people, it is not only wrong, it will crater the american economy. say let's all just calmed down and realize that our youth and diversity and global economy is a massive advantage, and let's embrace our advantage and stop demonizing. second thing we have to do is to realize as long as we are

over fundamental issues like public safety, we are in terrible shape. we are all sick of seeing these of police shooting young african-americans who never should have been shot. doesn't matter what your races, you don't like that. i was in an african-american church and's chicago -- church in lake chicago -- church in chicago. if you remember what happened in san bernardino, you saw the police at their best. again, riskingnd their lives, saving people regardless of their race, their gender, their religion, or politics. what hillary believes is yes you

have to have reform. when videotapes are taken they need to be put in a secure place where they can't be messed with or retrieved at an inappropriate time. if we need more police, they should look like the community they are policing. is what we did. when i was president we put what putred 10,000 police -- we 110,000 police on the streets. year -- 25 year low in crime. we can do this again. we need prison reform. there are too many people in prison for nonviolent offense. the federal system alone, only 7% of the people there are there for violent crimes. some of them need to be there

because they ripped off a lot of people financially. the point is this is costing you a fortune to keep all these people in prison. and they can make a contribution to our future. has the first proposal of this on any candidate in either party in the campaign. this is a this, chance where we can get the parties to work together. there are a lot of republicans who think we need to do that. the only thing she pointed that out is if you are going to lift people out of prison, you don't want to turn around and welcome them back in within six months. you need a transition system which includes education training, job placement, and no job discrimination for people who have the chance to start again. [applause] want to say something .bout this gun safety issue

it's a big deal to me. when i was president we didn't have universal background checks. we pass the assault weapons ban. but i had a big cultural advantage, because i was a governor of arkansas i had a .22 when i was 10 years old, i had a was 14.t, and i couldn't wait for duck season every year. mark, nobody ever talks about taking people's second amendment rights away. that is what is fueling the fear people have with the nra. it is there ability to scare your fellow us citizens -- fellow citizens that the

democrats are coming to get your guns. i remember we lost one dozen members of congress on the battlefield of the brady bill when we passed background check law. i left office, mystic abusers, stockers, and others were denied the right to get a handgun. there would be more than that but there were to do problems with that bill. one is they couldn't get the votes to close the gun show loophole. and like my native state, a gun show with a couple of guys with guns in the back of their pickups. and there were no online gun sales when this bill passed. the third problem we had then that we still have is that the mental health records, with which the nra always says they are for, are not organized or

automated throughout the country. sometimes the background checks cannot be completed. that is what happened at virginia tech. that is why that young man in charleston went into that church. have affected what happened at sandy hook. ,hat hillary wants to do is say look, the supreme court says you have the right to keep and bear arms, i wouldn't mess with it anyway. you should be able to hunt, you should be able to have guns to protect your family. there are a lot of people in arizona and arkansas that live in from the nearest law enforcement. it is crazy for our fellow citizens to stop sensible background checks, which would save lives of people just because they're disproportionately in the city, just because they are

disproportionately young, just because they are disproportionately people of color doesn't mean their lives don't need to be protected and saved. i saw the president arguing with that sheriff of yours on television the other night. [laughter] not years, anyway, you know what i mean. yours, anyway, you know what i mean. messed this thing up so much we couldn't fix it anyway. they said the same thing when i was president. know, don't you forget this, this is why hillary is fighting for this, we had a 33 year low in the murder rate, but we had a 46 year low in deaths from illegal gun violence

, don't tell me it didn't make a difference. and there are untold numbers of people walking around because congress took that vote. and somewhere between 12 and 15 members lost their seats for having the courage to do it. but it was the right thing to do. hillary talks to people i think she can convince them she is not coming for their guns and they should do their part as americans to help save these children's lives. a lot of you don't know this, upstate new york is pretty republican. she met with all the gun clubs, met with all the hunting groups, and she got there. she is to go duck hunting when she was in arkansas.

my daughter was young and thought it was grievous and wouldn't talk to her for a day. we get this but when you look at gabby and mark, when you look at , and you realize that we live in a society with a lot of really disturbed people, can we save every life? no. what is behind this is a corporate interest that wants to increase profits by keeping constituents terrified so they will buy more guns. that is all this is about. i have been doing this all my life. i endorsed background checks as governor 11 years before it

passed. called me and said they were fixing to kill me over this. he said i ought to drop it. said if i could find one legislator that will before it he will stick with me, otherwise drop it. if you can't do anything about it, don't do it. we could do it, and we did it. and lives were saved. [applause] lots and lots and lots of people. i want you to talk to your friends and neighbors about that. want these jobs, if you want to finish the work of reorganize reform, the insurance market until the co-pays and that the bulls go down and the insurance really works so we can get to 100% of people insured.

you want to encourage the legislature to put the children to health insurance program back we haveaw of arizona, convince people to vote in the primary and go out and talk to our neighbors. one of the greatest honors of being reelected president in 1996 was that i was the first democrat to carry arizona since harry truman in 1948. [applause] and i think it can happen again. i think it can happen again, but only if we talk to each other. you look at all the stuff you see on television, it is designed to get people to shut their brains off. be very mad, feel very threatened. for goodness sakes, don't think. hillary trusts you to think.

[applause] i just want to say one other , we have to do something for all these working-class people can't find another job all over america. in 2000 i signed a bill called the new markets tax credit, which gave a 39% tax credit to people who would invest money in places like native american reservations or appalachia or any other place that had persistently high unemployment and persistently low income. and it made a big difference in a lot of those places. there are places in eastern kentucky you wouldn't even recognize. congress would allow that to expire. hillary proposes we put that back in and more, so we can all grow together. [applause]

so that is my argument. the last thing i want to say is, just look at what she did when they are smart, those guys. she got a hold of them, it changed. when she was first lady and we lost on health care, because we votes in the0 senate to break a republican filibuster, and listen to that when people say they are going to give you a different health care system, we didn't pass withing since world war ii 60 votes sinc. a lot of people lost their jobs over that. so we got it. but when she got beat she kept working to get health insurance past, worked with senator kennedy.

we got 75% of the republicans to vote for it. then the other big deal she did was go to the house republican who i believe disliked me more than anybody in congress. he was there in for sir -- he was their enforcer. , hillary, do we have anything in common? she said, you love your kids, don't you you? whatever our differences, i know your children are adopted. adoptingou for your them. here's the problem, children are aging out of foster care with no education options, no training options. they are just going to be on the street. with theu to deal

problem. he said, what is the problem? adopt are afraid to children who aren't infants, and a freight to adopt children with special needs. i want to give a tax credit to non-infant children and children with special needs. [applause] they pass the bill, the congressman came to the white house, and it was an 80% increase in the number of kids adopted out of foster care because of that. and when she was a senator, she worked with john mccain and lindsey graham to take care of veterans coming home from the national guards and reserves to make sure they get the same health care people in regular military get. to get them the protective gear

they deserve one sent into combat zones. she worked with republican groups in new york to get small manufacturers into e-commerce and help family farmers. ran for reelection, the head of the farm bureau at long island were the only family farm endorser. she said i thought you were a republican, he said, i am. look, all these politicians and greater at election time, all i know is she is the only person in either party who ever actually did anything to help us make a living as farmers. and when she was secretary of supporte had republican with sanctions on iran, which

.he don't like if iran gets a nuclear weapon in the next 10 years, three or four other countries in the middle east will get it, and then we will never know what is happening to all that nuclear material. the real reason you should want iran to not have a nuclear weapon, is because you do not want to have an arms race in the middle east. that would be out of control. she got support for that. that gothe only treaty along with mr. putin's russia, which reduces the threat of accidental or intentional nuclear war. a treaty like that require 67 votes in the senate, even if you get all the democrats that's a lot of republicans. she got them. [applause] my argument, literally since she got out of law school and went to work for the children's defense school,

trying to get african-american out of prisons where they were in jail for years, mexican-american voters who were citizens for a long time but systematically excluded, try to get people in the hills of north arkansas the first access to legal services they ever had, from the beginning she had always been trying to make something good happen. long of since she was elected anything. ever since she was elected anything. she is the most qualified person at this moment in time. [applause] i want you to go out there between now and tuesday and polled people in -- and polled people in -- and pull people in. moment -- herehe

we are in the moment of being able to -- we are discarding so many of our past bigotry we don't want to be around anybody that disagrees with us anymore. we have seen too many of our fellow americans too long -- out she has a plan to make college help peopled already in debt be able to able tothat -- consolidate that an pair tiny percentage of that so it will consolidate that and pay a tiny percentage so it will not -- this from going further in life. we have to do this. if you want to rise together, i want you to get out there and help. will you do it?

[applause] happiest memories of my political life was in 1996 when arizona for the first time since harry truman voted for a democrat. i would like to see it happen again. depends on what you do tuesday. thank you and god bless you. [applause] ♪
