i have good relationships with mayor gray and governor o'malley. we've worked together on a number of things, for instance, metro funding and safety. we're all joined at the hip on that. we've all endorsed a new governance structure for metro through that board, and wre working together. this one i've let my views be known to both of them, i sent a letter on this exact same issue yesterday as well asking them to support our position, and i certainly hope that they, they willecause this is a big project. $2.5 billion, analmost a billion of it's from the federal government, the rest from a variety of sources. to get rail to dulles from d.c. and really make significant more use of that airport and just getting people out to that area so they don't have to use 66 or the tollway and then they can go wherever from there,t's a very important transportation project. but i do feel like i don't -- i have a project sole ri in my state -- sole in my state, but i can't fully control it. we're going to look at what can we do to improve that. on the foreign inves

in my state of maryland, our governor, martin o'malley, working with the legislature, is trying to make this work, implementing the health insurance exchanges in the state to make sure that people don't fall through the cracks. in fact, our secretary of health has come out with a study, by implementing and going through this process and implementing the exchange and moving through reform, we're going to create jobs and provide health care for thousands and thousands of people across the state of maryland and to our small businesses who want to do right by their employees by providing health care. and so i don't understand what the problem is here, and i'm a bit confused. on the one hand the majority doesn't want to pursue a public option for millions who are uninsured. and on the other hand, they don't want to make a marketplace, which is what these exchanges are, available to people to get health care in their states. and so you cannot have it both ways unless you want to continue to lead millions and millions -- leave millions and millions of people uninsured and without health care.
