aloha spirit as the bus embarks s tour.50 capital proclaimto claim -- the 27th asrough c-span week in hawaii. congratulations. >> watch more of our visit to onaii during hawaii weekend c-span, c-span.org, or listen on the free c-span radio app. the white house did not release an address from president trump this week. wisconsin senator tammy baldwin deliver the democratic weekly address. she talks about health care and health insurance plans. rep. baldwin: hi, i'm tammy baldwin, and i have the honor of working for wisconsin in the u.s. senate.

the trump administration is forizing the rules guaranteed health care protections that many americans depend on. they are moving forward on an expansion of junk insurance plans that can deny coverage to people with pre-existing conditions. and don't have to cover essential services, like prescription drugs, emergency room visits, and maternity care. this is more of the same from washington and we need your help to stop them. last year, when congressional republicans tried to pass repeal plans that would allow insurance companies to charge more for pre-existing conditions, families across our country fought back. and when they tried to charge older americans and age tax and make people pay more for less care, you let your voices be heard and sent a loud message to washington -- protect our care.

president trump did not listen, and we need you in this fight more now than ever. instead of working in a bipartisan way to take on big drug companies and lower prescription drug costs, congressional republicans gave been a huge tax giveaway as they continue to jack up your prices. instead of working in a bipartisan way to lower health care costs for the middle class, president trump has been working to sabotage our health system. the trump administration's sabotage has made it harder for people to sign up for coverage, and created in ability in the health care market, contributing to premium spikes in wisconsin and across the country for 2018. the trump administration has even gone to court to support a lawsuit that would take away guaranteed health protections and raise costs for americans with pre-existing conditions. if they succeed, insurance

companies will again be able to deny coverage or charge higher premiums for more than 130 million americans with a pre-existing condition. when i was nine years old, i got sick -- really sick. i was in the hospital for three months. i was brandedut as a child with a pre-existing health condition and denied coverage. this personal experience has driven my fight to make sure that every american has affordable, quality health care coverage, including the more than 2 million wisconsinites with pre-existing conditions. today, because of the affordable care act, they cannot be discriminated against and denied health care coverage. but now, president trump latest act of sabotage will expand junk insurance plans that could increase costs and reduce access to quality coverage for millions

, harm people with pre-existing conditions, and force premium increases on older americans. that is why i am leading an effort in the united states senate to take action and stop sabotage. right now, i am organizing my colleagues to support a new senate revolution that will force a vote on these junk plans. we cannot let the trump administration rewrite the rules on the guaranteed protections that families need. if you agree, please make your voices heard in support of my senate resolution to force a vote on overturning the trump administration's expansion of junk insurance plans. we have fought against efforts to repeal health care because no family should be forced to choose between helping a loved one get better or going bankrupt. together, we must fight this latest act of health-care sabotage.

trump'sy no to junk insurance plan, and make sure washington starts working for you to protect your health care and make it more affordable. >> tonight at 8:00 p.m. on c-span, african-american lgbtq facing talk about issues their community, including health care, -- acceptance, inclusion, and civic engagement. >> we have talked about voting, we have talked about running for office, but there is so much political work that has to happen beyond those things, right? david was saying, just since we have been here, policy is moving to prevent queer people from being parents, from adopting children and fostering children. it is better for a child to stay in the system then, heaven forbid, two queer people adopting them. >> watch on c-span, c-span.org, and listen on the free c-span radio app.

anannily resemblance -- bore uncanny resemblance to the england they had revolted against. >> sunday night at 8:00 eastern on c-span's q&a. sunday night on afterwards, retired marine corps lieutenant colonel picture mono on gender bias in the military. she is interviewed by military times reporter todd south. >> if a female marine is not board --tered to developed as a quality marine going into boot camp camp and not held to a high standard coming out of boot camp, how does that affect the perception by her colleagues? >> the problem is that because the marine corps does not want to change what happens at that foundational level and because everything is so segregated, those stereotypes persist, and the stereotypes and mentioned earlier sort of speed into the perception that women cannot

because they are women, and then they are not respected. and the lack of respect between men and women in the marine corps is legendary. it is stuff you in the squad base all the time. you hear male recruits who happen to be slower be told they are women, they are the keyword -- p-word, so it becomes normal to say derogatory things about women. that is the dilemma women have when they graduate from boot camp, that is the culture they are brought into. >> watch afterwards, on c-span2's book tv. c-span, where history unfolds daily. in 1979, c-span was created as a america'svice by cable television companies. today, we continue to bring you uner
