permanent internet tax freedom act converts the moratorium on permanent pan on which consumers, innovators, and investors can permanently rely by simply striking the 2014 end date. this prevents a surprise tax hike on american's critical service this is fall and maintains unfete everyday access to one of the most unique gateways to knowledge and engine soft self-improvement in all of human history. this is not an exaggeration. during the 2007 renewal of the moratorium the judiciary committee heard testimony that more than 75% of the remarkable productivity growth that increased jobs and income between 1995 and 2007 was due to investment in telecommunications networked technology and the information transported across them. everyone in silicon valley knows max lebshin's story he, came to america from the soviet union at age 16 of. his family had $300 in its pocket he, learned english by watching an old tv set he hauled out of a dumpster and repaired. 10 years later, the sold paypal, the well-known internet payments platform he co-founded, for $1.5 million. that's the good thing about the in

and you make it permanent. these are people permanently left out. permanently left out. why? many of these bills go back some years. we'll have to check many years ago, perhaps they were paid for. the more recent one was in the recovery act of 2009 which we favor. but we did not favor essentially making permanent laws that would leave out. that's what is done here. and i've heard, oh, we'll come back some other time. you're going to come back some other time when you've added a trillion dollars to the deficit? that's not believable. indeed, what is believable is the result of this kind of reckless course, it's going to squeeze further discretionary nondefense expenditures. those -- that squeezing out is the heart, as i said earlier, i think it's hardhearted, approach of the ryan republican budget. we see what happens when republicans essentially use the argument that we can't pay for it when they cut all kinds of programs that i mentioned at the beginning. so many that were cut out in the ryan republican budget. i urge a no vote. the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman's time

charitable rollover made permanent. it was a temporary act in 2006 but the past eight years we've extended the provision with strong bipartisan support. why? because republicans and democrats have known that our nation's charities comprise the most effective army of mercy and often are on the front lines of meeting the needs of our friends and neighbors when disaster strikes. the war against poverty, homelessness, illness and illiteracy is fought by our churches, private foundations and the public charities and communities throughout the united states and around the world. i've been working closely with one such organization, the global poverty project, with my good friend, hugh evans, who implemented a vision to eradicate extreme poverty and bring the developing world clean water, modern sanitization and the health care they need. it's organizations like this and the many public charities in my district, like the boys and girls club of bloomington, the community foundation of central illinois, all of which stand to ben

owners on the polk street in san francisco will apply to the department of building inspection to permanently roach the plumbing so we need a building permit before the plumbing permit you could apply for your plumbing permit and in addition we would like to see a permit i did research on the building today and i will speak about the building inspection complaint on my research for the building in 1994 application i'll put that on the overhead. this was - no so this was a permit in the 4 and the dbi issued that it was legalizing did second floor a back to the residential use and the building permits state that we had one residential unit with is commercial back to residential use with one dwelling unit. we signed off that permit and issued a certificate of completion. and the description on the certificate of final completion on polk street legalized it back to the first floor commercial number of apartments one and i think going from the i noticed on the 3 r report on the brief dbi on the 3 r report had it as one dwelling unit over commercial that was part of the brief. the latest complaint

to open a permanent repository for our nuclear spent fuel. over 30 years later, tens of thousands of nuclear waste -- the reason behind this failure is well-known. it's imperative this congress and the administration act to open a safe and permanent storage facility. until that date, we must find interim storage to ensure that the 70,000 tons of spent fuel sitting in our nation's nuclear plants are safe from harm's way. the pilot program authorized in this amendment would be paid for by funds already available in the nuclear waste fund and would direct d.o.e. to open a pilot facility only after it's found to be safe by n.r.c. gained consent of the state's governor within the jurisdiction and affected indian tribes and heard from the general public. given the nearly $30 billion available in the nuclear waste fund, the growing inventtory of spent nuclear fuel and the inherent hazards connected with nuclear waste, i ask my colleagues to join with congressman barton and i to authorize this program and, madam speaker, i'm also in agreement -- i ag

i know he wants to make at least some of these things permanent. we may work -- we may succeed or we may not, but it's certainly not meant to be anything other than serious. . two issues that i regard as somewhat distinct. we do have a border crisis. i suspect legislation to deal with that. there's a difference in philosophy. i think the administration just want the sources to manage it. i think we would like to change some of the root causes and address it and hopefully stop the massive flow, and all the human tragedy that goes with it. there's a huge debate as to what do we do with unaccompanied juveniles or minors who arrive. that's an important debate to have. we ought to stop and think if there's something that we are doing that's encouraging that flow. because believe me, everything coming out of this is bad. it disrupts the societies from which these people are coming. we are treating children from mexico different than we are treating them from guatemala. we've got people now pouring money into criminal cartels and strengthening them. final

the effects of making bonus depreciation permanent are real. analysis done by the tax foundation found that permanent bonus depreciation would grow the economy by 1%, which would add 18 -- $182 billion to the economy, would increase capital stock by over 3%, would increase wages by about 1% or $500 for an individual making $50,000 a year and would create 212,000 jobs. growing a healthier economy, creating jobs and helping americans see bigger paychecks is exactly what this country needs. making 50% bonus depreciation permanent is supported by associations representing a variety of industries -- farmers, telecommunications, manufacturers, energy, construction, retailers and technology. over 100 groups have voiced their support for bonus depreciation stating that it will provide an immediate incentive for businesses to make additional capital investments, thereby boosting the u.s. economy and job creation. this provision has gained strong bipartisan support in the past as have many of the permanent tax policies the house has voted on this year. b

they want to go from limited to permanent. [speaker not understood] due to the increase in staffing levels for the domestic violence unit, the number of cases dismissed as the district attorney just stated to you has been reduced by 37% or 32 cases from 87 cases in 2012 to 55 cases in 2013. which means that more victims are following through with their cases and total conviction rates have increased by 6 percentage points from 60% to 66%. departmental reports they are unable to evaluate the actual number of limited term positions that were necessary to convert to permanent ongoing positions in order to continue the work of the domestic violence unit. the domestic violence unit works as a team making it difficult to determine the specific contribution of each new position. because the proposed positions were proved as [speaker not understood] designating these positions as permanent is a policy matter for the board. so, we do not recommend a specific cut, but we felt that it is important to bring this to your attention. and i w

we heard from the hamas leader, we're going to consider a truce, but you have to look to a more permanentgreement, we have to discuss fundamental matters. >> i think there are three main options at this stage. the most likely one is that israel significantly degrades hamas military capabilities and withdraws and declares unilaterally a ceasefire, that's the first and most likely option at this stage. the second possibility, israel-hamas manage to find a third party, a broker that they both trust -- >> not egypt. egypt sounded good when the muslim brotherhood was in charge. but now you have a military leader and they don't trust him. >> that doesn't work for hamas, absolutely. >> so who could be the third party? >> hamas would like qatar to play that role. israel doesn't accept that. the u.s., but they don't seem to have much leverage in the region, so it doesn't seem to be an option. russian, very unrealistic. >> russia has other things to worry about. what's option three? >> that israel manages to overthrow hamas. the question is, how would they do that? isn't this a risky strategy that

and we shall give them the certainty now by extending this law permanently. i -- i also note that if this is going to be extended into the lame duck session, i'm very worried about the shenanigans that are going to happen, and the shenanigans are on an issue that the senator from oregon and i are quite passionate about, and that is the so-called marketplace fairness act that my colleague just referenced from north dakota. which is -- i like to call it instead of the marketplace fairness act, the internet sales tax collection act. my colleague from north dakota mentioned that this is about state and locals collecting taxes. i respect that state and localities should be able to collect taxes, but for states like oregon and new hampshire that don't have a sales tax, why should our businesses -- or why should any internet business in this country take on the responsibility which has traditionally been the responsibility of state and local governments to collect taxes because under the so-called market fairness act, what would happen is internet businesses across

just as an example only 35% of our preliminary pfa's become permanent. 35%. why? people aren't showing up. they're afraid. of the pfa's, actually the temporary ones, 25% include an order barring possession of a firing arm. only 25%. what's going on here? well, again, the frustration comes in that we have to protect our victims. how do we do that? once upon a time, unless you had a crystal ball, you couldn't. today, senators, we have the technology to give law enforcement the capabilities. what do i mean by that? right now our probation of officers across this country have gps that's available to them so they can track people under their supervision. let's say for our discussion purpose right now -- keep in mind domestic violence isn't just about firearms. the overall majority of domestic violence cases i saw on the street and in the courts were done with fists, with knives, with blunt objects. i like to think of it as a real major epidemic in this country. we have legislation out there that curtails more and more people's ability to carry a gun. people that want t

>> we have tenuous progress on a permanent ceasefire. there is no deal yet.y is saying they will hold fire permanently, but diplomats are meeting in cairo, the intermediary right now trying to hammer out what is going to happen. it is tenuous and has been throughout. even during this temporary humanitarian pause that we had for a couple of hours that ended about almost two hours ago or so, about an hour ago, we had rockets, three rockets fired from gaza into israel, israel responded. just as that ceasefire ended, we had more rockets being fired into israel. israel has yet to respond. what is important here is that despite that little violence, the diplomats are trying to come to a conclusion, trying to find a permanent ceasefire. there is no guarantee both sides will get there, because neither side wants to give in to demands unless the u.s. is right in the middle really pushing both sides to come to a ceasefire as they did during the last conflict in gaza. >> reporting from gaza. >> we want to change gears now, the st. louis rams opening training camp in eig

today the permanent subcommittee on investigations issued a bipartisan report on the failed acquisition of ecss, a program that was supposed to decrease costs and increase efficiencies by consolidating the air force's hundreds of legacy logistic systems into a single new system. it's important to recognize that what happened with ecss is not an isolated case of incompetence.

the city owns this land here and the council president says he's going to make moves to put a permanent memorial park on this spot to honor the memory of the three kids killed in the car jack crash that happened on friday. in the meantime the funeral for the three is set for monday as the mother continues to recover. a full physical injury could be possible no way anyone could ever recover emotionally from what she saw in the last split seconds here. it was those images that the 19-year-old can't get out of his mind and he'll have a lot of nights to see that in his mind in a prison cell. >> he made a statement without me being present. he is doing everything in his power to atone for this. and like i said, he is completely shattered. >> they little kids. three little kids. i sincerely apologize for him. if he hadn't done it, i'm going to do it for him. >> what they did was indefensible and also unforgiveable. whatever remorse they may or may not have does not bring back the three young children. >> reporter: police just moved the arrested car jackers from police headquarters just after

so were those against whom permanent restraining orders were entered because of domestic violence. for these prohibitions to be effective, obviously records of the convictions and restraining orders must be entered into the national instant background check system, and the chairman just spoke about his interest in that, for that to be an effective system. so it distresses me that even now all these years later, according to the center of american progress, quote, only 36 states have submitted any domestic violence convictions to the index. of these 21 states have submitted 20 or fewer of those records in an even smaller number of states have even submitted records regarding restraining orders. of these nine states submitted ten or fewer, end of quote. i note rhode island has submitted exactly zero misdemeanor domestic violence records to nix and exactly zero domestic violence records. for delaware, 0 and 0, hawaii 3-0, illinois 1-0, minnesota 16-2. new york, 0-10. vermont 2-0. these stays are failing to do their job. iowa ranks near the top of the states in this regard. i can confe

ceasefire, no one could find that permanent ceasefire the diplomacy continues. egypt is the main intermediary between palestine and israel. going to fly to turkey to istanbul. today, hamas and egypt do not trust each other. egypt's actually to some officials hate hamas as much as israel hates hamas. because of that john any kind of ceasefire which really has to go through egypt is going to be much more difficult to find than in previous battles. >> i want to you look nick, are those flames behind you? >> those are flames. and just to give viewers a sense of how these things go, generally what we see are rockets leaving from gaza. and that's a particular sound, a very kind of sleek -- shriek sound, those are followed by big deep booms, generally from f-16s. american made f-16s. they're israeli of course, dropping bombs on rocket launchers and sometimes on houses. that's when you get the fires you see behind me. right now it's an israeli strike on some kind of target. of course i don't know what it is in this particular moment and that's what we're going osee, you

[applause] >> to answer your question, the impacts we have heard already stated. the devastating impact of this in action on communities, the economy, on our families -- beyond that, i would say much more about this nation. those are -- and there are those who would attribute this inaction to another example of partisan congressional gridlock. we need to recognize that inaction on this issue in particular is of a different kind. what is at stake is the very soul and humanity of our nation. our fail

it was not a permanent arrangement. it was supposed to have ended. it was supposed to have culminated in successful negotiations on so-called permanent issues. was supposed to and implicit in that construction was the emergence of the state of palestine, something that was not elaborated with this explicitly at least in june 2002 when the emergence of a viable state of palestine living side by side with the state of israel was put forward as the way forward, as the solution concept and thereby making it by george w. bush, thereby making it a universally accepted doctrine. you know, a lot of things did not happen the way they were supposed to happen. and that is why i think we need to go back. oslo itself was supposed to be a long-term arrangement. may 1999 was supposed to be. it did not happen. the arrangement may have made sense or could have been because it was interim. because actually, by virtue of signing the oslo accords, the palestinian side by virtuing of signing the accord in a formal sense accepted the occupation or continuation in a formal

about how important it is, your preference for permanent solution. and avert a year-end crisis. i'm going to offer a slightly different perspective on that. taking slight exception with my friends who i respect. and this is an area that i personally have been deeply involved with since i reluctantly left the transportation infrastructure where i had the honor and privilege of serving both with bill shuster and his father bud when he was chair. i made the transition to ways and means and volunteered to be on budget because i'm deeply concerned about infrastructure and finance. and the fact that we are in trouble. my concern with what's being offered today and the way we in the ways and means committee all the democrats supported an amendment i had which was as the chairman mentioned a moment ago, is to bring about long-term support by shortening the duration. because i'm afraid what you are considering, and what the committee ill-advisedly advanced is going to make the chaos, the uncertainty, it's going to make it permanent, not just this congress and next congress, but as one of
