this. they have been tightlipped about what they would like to see. in an actual bill. susan: if there is a clinton administration after the election, what can they expect out of the house oversight committee or the special committee on benghazi? -- kelsey: they will definitely keep investigating her. can he work with clinton? his answer was no. with the percentage of house republicans that are the freedom caucus growing next year, i think what will be important and interesting is what is best for paul ryan. this will be a very hard next congress for him because the freedom caucus is rolling in influence. they are making these demands. it's hard to extract policy changes and make rules changes, but they can shut down pretty much a lot of things these days. and should paul ryan want to work with hillary clinton on something, if they don't like it, it is not going to go through. it could be problematic. kelsey: this is a big question

for the speaker. he will have to decide if he wants to speak by the majority. of freedom caucus would have the power to put that in jeopardy for a lot of legislation. susan: it looks like the dye is cast for continuing resolution for the short term. perhaps an interesting lame-duck session and an interesting congress next year. thank you for your time. >> c-span, created by america's cable companies and brought you as a public service by your cable or satellite provider. more, we will have a government of, by, and for the people. >> we are stronger together. and no matter what, remember this, love trumps hate.

this weekend on behalf of her mother. she was joined by actress sally field who shared her reasons for supporting hillary clinton this year. youngstownus of state university, this is 50 minutes. >> thank you. thank you so much. thank you for being here. i was not sure what the crowd would be like. will these be millennials? they will not want to hear from me. thank you. [applause] i am here because the two candidates running for president are not comparable. not in any way. one of them is a brilliant, experienced states woman who is the most qualified, highly prepared presidential candidate of all time. [applause]

and one of them is a huckster and a fraud. and what is at stake is our country. future, our's grandchildren. this is the most important time, certainly of my life. knows, i have been passionately supporting hillary clinton for a long time. -- int me tell you why 1995, i was in beijing. out with the ngos working for safe the children. i had my 21-year-old son with me because it was my way of seducing him back into my life. he was 21 and said -- i have enough of you -- [laughter] so i was offered this trip by to nepalchildren to go

and then go to the beijing women's conference. i invited my son eli who would go as a vagabond. the trip changed our lives. as we were standing out there in a muddy pit where we were sent as a nongovernmental group, they did not want to hear what we had to say and what women were screaming about all over the world. the human rights issues that were aggressively being abused. but i was there with thousands of women from all over the world and we stood there in the mud puddle and i swear to you, it was like a game of telephone as we had no cell phones, we had no loudspeaker, we felt like a ripple, the reverberations of what hillary clinton had done. women's rights are human rights. and human rights are women's rights. once and for all. [applause] sally field: she said it again

in 2011 at the u.n. at the international human rights days. and she said gay rights are human rights and human rights are gay rights. at that time in china, she was and she felt a lot of pressure to not do that internally from our government and asked early from the chinese remarksnt to soften her and she did not. was the firstd it time anything like that had been and and it changed my life it has changed the world and i know it is important for us to keep going. i love ohio. ohio, i have a grateful part of my heart that belongs to ohio. when i was a very young actor i was trying to transition out of television and no one wanted

anything to do with me. i spent a summer here in ohio doing our stock. and it was the transition point between television, situational comedy, and serious roles in films and doing normal right and -- and doing norma rae and onward and abraham lincoln. and it was the support that i ohio.n every city in they gave me strength. they gave me support. and it is that very same strength and support that hillary clinton needs right now. you are the hearts of america. please know what is at stake in this election. please know. my son -- i have children that are grown and have gone to college and grad school. i have one son that is still in gratz goal. i have a granddaughter who is a freshman in college. and i know what most of you who

are in college or what your parents have had to do to get a college education for your children. and you have had to take on debts that you are still paying and that your children will be paying perhaps for the rest of their lives. it is not right and it must come to an end. son, who is 27, my youngest, me write- please, let something. i will do anything. i need to write something. ok, ok i said. so he wrote this and i am going to read it to you. againstnent is not just the kind of progress that we all strive for. he wants to take everything from this country that makes us great. his idea of making america great again is an america that looks a lot like a certain russian dictatorship that he seems to be so fond of.

electing donald trump would not just put a halt to all that we have fought for, it would put an end to this country full stop. if you care about progressive values, affordable health care, affordable education, about paid family leave, about lgbt writes, about human rights, about curing the climate change -- about stopping reckless wall street behavior would -- wall street behavior, about saving this country from an egotistical, two masquerading in then thereuman suit, is only one candidate and that is hillary rodham clinton for the next president of the united states. [applause] have noeld: i

daughters. i have only sons. i have two granddaughters who are on their way to being wonderful young women. but if i had a daughter, i would paint it and have it look like that. choice.ld be my perfect she is a powerful and important and afor this country powerful and important voice for her mother. chelsea clinton. [applause] [cheering] chelsea clinton: thank you. oh, gosh. thank you, sally. i sort of think i should have been your warm-up act. [laughter] she is amazing: and thank you for using your platform and raising your voice. you shared that you think this

is the most important election of your lifetime. i certainly think it is the most important election in my lifetime because i believe that everything i care most about is at risk. part becauseay in i am now a parent. my daughter charlotte turns to on monday. -- turns two on monday. and oh, the for cheering for charlotte. and my son eight is three months old -- and my son aidan is three months old. me somek you for giving love as well. this is incredibly affirming. thank you. i feel sous note, intensely about this election and it feels so personal to me because i am now a parent. as i am of myud

mom and is fiercely grateful that i am for her being my mother, it is important to me because i am a parent. even if i weren't a parent, this would be the most important election of my lifetime because everything that sally shared that her son is worried about, i am worried about. bit want to share a little about a couple of things i am particularly focused on right now and then open it up to your questions, your parenting advice -- [laughter] complements, truly, anything you want to share. i just want to talk of couple of best i want to talk about a couple of things i've been thinking about. sally mentioned women's rights are really at stake in this election. find sohe things that i onar about my mom's position

-- in the sameis way as when she is talking about the economy. she is a waste talking about women and families. she understands that we cannot separate these issues because they are intimately connected. when she is talking about paid family and medical leave, one of the many big differences between her and her opponent, she is talking about those of us who delivered children the old-fashioned way. she is also talking about those who adopt children. those who foster children. same-sex couples. she also knows that childbirth is not the only medical event we may have in our lives. sometimes we get sick. sometimes we need to support our grandparents, our parents, our loved ones that get sick or get hurt. when mr. trump talks about family leave, it is only for women who have given birth the

old-fashioned way. it is only for six weeks. it is only part of a paycheck for unemployment insurance. that is not my mother's vision at all. her vision is that we should all be able to take three months of paid family leave whether we have a child, whether we get hurt, whether some and love needs our support. is ane that to her american value. so while it is often women who are the caregivers -- men need to be part of this as well. [applause] that isclinton: and what she means when she talks about stronger together. because it is not just a slogan. and it matters to me that when my mom talks about raising the minimum wage, it is yes, about raising the minimum wage, it is certainly not that wages are too

high, it is about raising the minimum wage, finely guaranteeing equal pay for equal work for women. guaranteeing equal pay for americans with disabilities. because it is still legal in our country in 2016, it is still legal in the united states of america to pay americans with disabilities one third of the minimum wage. how many of you actually knew that? legals structural discrimination that has no place in our country. and so it matters to me when my mom talks about raising the minimum wage, she knows that if we do not raise the minimum wage, for everyone, we are not living up to our values as a country and that is a women's issue also. and we need a president who iserstands that the economy

a family issue and a women's issue. and that things that are often viewed as women's issues or family issues are also economic issues. the second thing i have been thinking about a lot this week is that this week is overdose awareness week. arguably, every week should be overdosed heroin awareness week. we are in a crisis in our country. we now lose more people to then we dooverdose to car crashes. that is not our country either. person whos the only has a serious plan in response to this painfully serious crisis. she thinks the federal --ernment must invents

invest more in prevention particularly working in high schools and colleges. we need to be doing more prevention work and working with doctors and nurses practitioners to that people are prescribing the pain medicine that is needed but not the pain medicine that is not. we need to be providing federal funds so that everyone who wants treatment gets it. because there are clinics across the country, including here in ohio, that have months of waiting time where people are saying -- i want help and there is no room in the in. -- in the inn. that is not our country either. when people want to help we say -- how can we help? and we will get through this together. mr. trump does not have any plans on this or at least he didn't when i looked on his website last night. so it matters to me that my mom knows that we have a lot of unfinished business when it

comes to paid family and medical leave but also the job of the president is to be able to respond to the new crises that present themselves. and our opioid and heroin epidemic is a crisis that deserves a response from the president. and so, i could not agree more with sally that there are very clear differences. i also own that i am deeply biased. [laughter] hope thatinton: and i my daughter and son someday feel as proud of me as i do about my mom. i remember watching that speech that sally talked about and i remember when the chinese actually blocked her out. evil in china could not watch her get that speech because the chinese government did not allow it to be shown. a long track has record of standing up for what

is right. and standing up to bullies. [applause] i thinkclinton: and that also is yet another reason i and so proud to be her daughter. because, before i open it up to , comments ors advice -- i do just want to say that i never thought i would see in my lifetime, the almost normalization of hate speech. from mr.re watching trump, from his campaign. and i get toainful of racism, sexism, and rhetoric against americans with disabilities and the mocking of our veterans, and the mocking of a gold star family?

that is not acceptable. that is not the country that i want for my children, for sally's grandchildren, or any of our children, grandchildren or our future. i will do everything i can between now and the registration deadline here in ohio on october 11, and between october 12 and the election day to get as many people as possible to register and talk about what is at stake in this election, everything, and make the case on behalf of of my mom so that we do wake up on november 9 knowing that we will move forward together. all for what so many of you are doing already. thank you for doing everything you can between now and election day. when you are thinking about what you want to ask or share, please give my mom's organizers and supporters of across the state for all they are doing every hour of every day.

thank you so much. [applause] questions. do withwould your mom the deaf community to give them opportunities? most of us do not have any opportunities. chelsea clinton: thank you for your question. thank you for being here. and thank you to the translator. eventsy one of my mom's has a translator so people can hear directly from her in whatever way they need to hear. as you may have seen on wednesday, i think it was wednesday, but i have been a lot of places this week so i apologize if it was tuesday. that at some point this week my mom made a speech outlining her agenda regarding what we need to do to ensure that americans with disabilities are supported at every stage with education. so a few things -- one, she

thinks we need more support in the school system. that the federal government should be providing support directly to schools that have a disproportionate percentage of high title i students. free andi is the reduced lunch plan for low income students and it is the best metric we have for poverty in a school district. canhat school districts hire more special education students with more training, more social workers and teachers so students are fully supported. we also need to be providing more support to community colleges and colleges so that it is possible for deaf students to limits ofrever the your ambition and talent take you. so that doors are not automatically closed against you

at that we are working to open doors. that is good for all of us. we all want to be capturing the full measure of our country's full potential. and then, the final point is one that he mentioned earlier. we have to a limited the legal wage discrimination against americans with disabilities. we know that is having an impact both on minimum wage workers but it halts -- but it also has a depressing effect on minimum wage workers as well. you deserve as everyone does to be paid equal to your energy, effort, talents, and your investments. i hope you will go online and look at the full it -- as the full agenda that she outlined this week. thank you. [applause] in the backward hat. >> good afternoon. chelsea clinton: you can call me chelsea. >> i have too much respect to do

that. dea wass summer the looking to reschedule the class of marijuana specifically with regard to medical marijuana so institutions could do more research. and we have seen that many children with epilepsy have dealt with the effects of cdc. many times when the question has been asked of your mother, she has not been as pacific about where she might stand about rescheduling marijuana. i wonder if you have any more information? chelsea clinton: she has been clear so i am sorry you felt she hasn't been. please go to her website. one of the challenges with the experiments happening around the country at the state level, and she supports states in making whatever decision is right for them, is that we have no real way to study them.

so anecdotally we have a lot of evidence in the area you talked autism, in alepsy, stimulating appetite for people that are on intensive chemotherapy regimen, for people who have non-epilepsy leisure disorders and challenges, that we also have and it dead -- anecdotal evidence from colorado where some of the people who were taking marijuana for those corner believed after they die that there was drug interaction with other things they were taking. one of the reasons we need rigorous studying is that we want to know where it works and where it does not because probably there are some areas where it works and areas where it does not. one of the reasons the fda has such rigorous testing and one of the reasons our fda approval process is the gold standard for

the world is the rigorous study of new drugs and how they interact with over-the-counter drugs and prescription drugs. that is why when we get a prescription, there are warnings . really explicit instructions. if you are taking these four rugs, please note your doctor knows that before you start this prescription. we just need so much more data than we have so that people who might benefit have a chance to benefit. people who might be in danger are protected. my mom strongly support the need for more rigorous study and addressing everything that may have medicinal purpose. thank you for your question. >> sally, thank you for coming to youngstown.

you are just as beautiful now as you have ever been. [applause] >> sally, i used to live in pennsylvania and i was chairman for 16 years. i stood in line for a years to hear your mother and -- 48 hours eig hoursour -- for toht hear your mother and father speak. i don't believe the polls. chelsea clinton: make sure everyone comes out and votes. thank you. so many questions. yes ma'am, in the glasses. >> how are you doing? chelsea clinton: i'm great. >> my name is janice and i have my daughter, my baby daughter here and my granddaughter vivian . i feel this is a historical

moment and i wanted them to share it with me. come theyn is, how are not making mr. trump turn his taxes in if it is the rule? it is the rule from my understanding that he must do that. when president bush was bush was running, he was just a little slow and they stayed on him. this is not setting too good of an example. don't think he sets a good example on anything any day. and i agree it is not a, it is voluntary. although it has been customary, longer than i have been alive.

my mother's tax returns are in the public domain from 1977 onward. that's also longer than i have been alive. >> a question about health care. thank you. the cost of health care has gone up dramatically for middle-class people, especially in this area, along with prescriptions. to dos your mother going about looking into that and the price we have to pay? chelsea: thank you for asking about the cost of medical insurance and prescription. you may or may not know, my mom fought for health care coverage. i remember vividly when it didn't work out. part of her original plan was to negotiate with drug companies so medicare, on behalf of the tens

of millions of americans, would be using to its major purchasing power to track down the cost of prescriptions for people on medicare. the thinking goes that is good for people not on medicare yet. i would like to think i'm not on medicare yet. to that medicare pricing is transparent. you can go to the website right now and see how medicare pays for certain things in this area. it would be hard for drug companies to charge those of us not on medicare yet even three times as much as they would be charging medicare, much less great hundred times. that is the first thing we have to get done. unlike my mom, when she was fighting for fat fighting for dispatch 93, there was bipartisan movement to do that. now the v.a. negotiates with the full weight of all of our

much lower drug costs. a lot of republicans supported that, saying we should remind them of their support. so that is the first thing. the second point, we have to protect the affordable care act, but finished the part of ."ffordable expansion of 20 million americans, that is not just a statistic. and one point that really illustrates that, that means a at to me is -- to me as relatively new mom twice over, we have pregnant women access the full complement of prenatal health care services and more

women will deliver their babies with safe environments then at any other point in american history. that is one of the impacts of the affordable care act. expenses, ascket well as insurance premiums have gone up too quickly. what my mom believes, and this is outlined in detail on her is that middle-class americans and working-class americans should get tax credit to defray and cap their out-of-pocket insurance and premium costs. hopefully that will get us to the affordable part of the afford will care act. you have had your hand up. >> i'm a first timer, it's good to see you.

i have a question about your mom. does your mother plan to raise the middle wage for disabilities? >> yes, sir. she feels strongly about this. we can't have legal wage discrimination. outrageous, it is un-american, and it is something i hear her talk about consistently. pay for equal work for women, equal pay for equal work for americans with disabilities. thank you for asking that. >> their people who claim hillary will -- how do you respond to people who claim hillary wants to take their guns? chelsea: good question. i hope they listen to my mom's

convention speech, which she said i'm not going to take your guns. said, she thinks they do need sensible gun control measures. and what she is proposing, the vast majority of gun owners in every survey have said they support. she has a few things she thinks we need to do. she thinks we need universal background checks, and we need knownse the tragically charleston loophole, which enables a shooter in charleston to walk into the baptist church and kill people in a prayer to get his gun. i'm careful not to say his name because we don't want to give him any support.

the loophole is known because he and right nowns if your background check has been processed in three days you are automatically approved. store you are walking into has an internet connection that isn't working, or there is some disruption in the local or if the fbi, has a big backlog, you are automatically approved. that's outrageous. close that some background checks are actual background checks. support.a lot of we have to close the charleston loophole, and we need a universal background check system. that has support from gun owners.

similar to those of us who are legal, law abiding non-gun owners. that is one. she strongly believes in the child safety lock. to introduce the technology that now exists. only the person used to register -- this is hugely important. there is a reason they are called child safety locks. already we had one week where we have six children under the age found died because they their parents or grandparents guns. is also something that has a lot of support from law enforcement, because the vast majority of guns used to commit crimes are stolen.

those of us that don't own guns and thomas that do should want stolen guns -- shouldn't want stolen guns to be used in crimes. she is not trying to take away any guns from any law-abiding person. she does think we need to prevent people who are not law-abiding from getting them. final point is surely people who are on the terrorist watch list should not be allowed to buy guns in our country. so i hope that helps you answer that question. too in my random scan around the room. >> i really applaud your mother's wisdom in taking on the oil industry. talk about some other

president spirit jimmy carter put solar panels on the roof. mrs. johnson started the beautify america campaign. only like to encourage bill to embroider sweaters and other things of that store -- that sort. is he able to come out and start using his tremendous charisma to be a good first husband and get us on a better path for better energy? >> thank you. i will tell him i met someone who thinks he should take up embroidery. i don't know if he had any talents in that area. takes you up on that offer i promise to share it on social media. question about climate they have some old-fashioned -- that strong climate change, that's true on vaccine, on medical marijuana.

i hope you will look at her comprehensive clean energy, and that she thinks we need to be investing to help turn coal country into clean energy country. and one of his jobs and energy to the communities, whose job in energy helps. you ask about my dad. a lot of people ask about what role my dad might have in the white house. when we went, my mom has said three things.

she will look for his help on the economy, because in the 1990's we created 23 million new jobs and average incomes rose and rose and rose. in cities and suburban areas and rural areas, north south, east, west. congressional districts. advice inlook for his a way that president obama and president bush both looked to his advice in parts of the world where he has a deep knowledge and useful purpose -- useful perspective. both president bush and president obama said they have talked my dad in northern ireland because he helped negotiate the peace in northern ireland. and then she says this both in a choking and non-joking, she wouldn't consultant on things like china patterns and flowers. maybe if he takes up embroidery she will have to change her

mind. so many questions. yes, in the blue. >> thank you so much for coming. it is an honor to meet you. i was wondering what your mother may do if republicans hold either at house or senate. ofhave had eight years gridlock. do she have a plan on how to break that if that happens again? >> i think president obama doesn't get enough credit for all he has actually managed to get done. managed to get done, kind of thinking about the last question. he protected more land than any president in american history. has gotten a lot done that doesn't get the headlines or attention or the gratitude

that it deserves. your question about my mom has a veryy, my mom strong and surprisingly strong to makef being able progress with republicans when there is common ground. she clearly can also stand her ground. just a couple of examples. she worked with a man named tom delay. for those of you who are younger fair to think of him as the grandfather or the godfather of the tea party movement. a very conservative republican. to overhaulgether adoption out of the foster care system. literally tens of thousands of young people who have been adopted out of the system who would not have been able to if they work to change.

my mom worked with lindsey graham, republican from south v.a.ina to expand the system, to include all of our national guard and to serve our country overseas, so that when they come home they and their families can be fully integrated into the v.a. system, so that we serviceout viewing the that we are valuing -- so that we are valuing all the service of our men and women. i would argue what they haven't done. thank you for your questions. >> i would like to make a comment. mama, heuths your never comes up and says what his plan is to do anything for the country.

all he does is badmouth. i'm tired of hearing it. chelsea: i just got the sign we need to wrap up. we can use that as a springboard to finish. i agree, i think running for president, part of the responsibility of having given -- having been given the opportunity to run for president is to tell the american people exactly what you are going to do, how you are going to do it, and how you are going to pay for it. i agree, and i also agree that , what his campaign

is deeplyin ohio troubling. and if you are all as troubled the am, the answer is button that says "love trumps hate." talk about everybody -- talk to everybody you know and everybody you don't know about getting registered and turning out to vote. thank you all so very very much.

plan for childcare and elder care. that plan has many great features, including tax-free childcare savings accounts, low income parents are given tax credits they can put straight into those accounts and get a $500 per child match for those deposits. families can also did up the cost of childcare from their taxes, a huge tax cuts for the middle class. we also have, and as we have been doing, we have been talking a lot about improving education. school choicees for every single disadvantaged child in america. [applause] and we're going to get rid of and totally and common core. [applause] we are also going to

bring down the cost of college. universities get massive federal funds at huge tax breaks for your endowments but they don't spend those endowments on their students. i will work with congress to make sure these special federal benefits are not available and less universities begin to reduce tuition and student debt. it is too expensive. [applause] and this will get it. this will really do it. this is the problem. it is right smack in the middle of the source. reduce both the cost for students and taxpayers. in students are drowning debt and we will fix it. [applause] women also, by the way, value security. they want a commander-in-chief that will defeat radical islamic

terrorism -- [applause] mr. trump: it is time. going on too long. now in 30 countries. it started off any little area. they left a big vacuum, hillary clinton and barack obama, and now it is in 30 countries, maybe more. we want to stop the massive influence -- influx of refugees. protect our borders.

they attend the same conferences, they have the same friends and connections. they all support the same ideology of globalism that makes them rich while shipping your jobs, your factories and your wealth to other countries all over the place, in particular lately, to mexico. i am not running to the president of the world. i am running to be president of the united states and turn things around.
