mr. pompeo to be energic, bright and loyal team player. charles: what do you make of the notion that tillerson was never comfortable within this environment? to your point i think perhaps because he was ceo of the world's largest corporation or one of the most powerful corporations, never really took the kind of subordinate role? one thing to voice your opinion, but at some point i think cabinet members certainly have to get on board with the president, don't they? >> i think he got into number of spats about the white house staff about personnel choices, this and that kind of thing. the other comment i would make about the secretary, who is obviously a very fine man, is that he got a little bit down in the weeds about state department organization and reorganization and that's really not the essence of diplomacy. you have to lead a team that engages with the rest of the world and that, when you're secretary of state really has got to be your focus. you can't worry about whether spouses of foreign service employees are allowed to work at e

mr. zuckerberg is obviously a very bright, accomplished, successful young man. we can do something that will improve facebook. >> can i ask you, senator, about another story that has been in the news, though. possible leaks at the white house. >> yeah, i'm concerned. the president ought to be concerned. mr. kelly ought to be concerned. we all ought to be concerned. it's unconscionable. if you dislike the president that much and you are still working for him, you know, you don't have a soul. you ought to quit. i mean, there can't be more than a handful of people who had access to this information. i'm not saying the american people don't have a right to know. they do. but i'm also saying that a president, whoever the president is, has a right to surround himself with people who at least have a modicum of loyalty and sort of have his best interests and the best interests muof the american people at heart at a minimum, and i think this leak was unconscionable. they need to dig a big old hole underneath the jail and put the person there. >> dual outranl on the leak

mr. speaker, public school teachers truly make a difference in the lives of our students. they prepare them for a bright and successful -- and successful futures. it is their dedication to our students that builds strong public schools and, therefore, strong communities. as a senior member of the education and work force committee and product of public schools, i know the incredible role our schools play in communities across the nation. public schools today have much good news to share. from increasing graduation rates and reduced dropout rates. to improve ratings given by communities on school performance. in fact, public school graduation rates have risen rom 79% in 2010-2011 to 83% in 2014-2015. this increase in the major five years reflects four out of five public school students receive a regular high school diploma within four years of starting ninth grade. while the graduation rates varies among states, 34 states reported graduation rates between 80% and 89% with the highest being 91% in iowa, followed by 90% in new jersey. based on data from the current population survey, the dropout rate has s

mr. president, during the commerce committee hearing that i chaired on this bill, we heard testimony from yvonne ambrose whose daughter desiree was sexually trafficked repeatedly before being murdered. desiree was just 16, a bright and loving girl who dreamed of becoming a doctor in the air force. instead, she was raped and murdered by a man twice her age who had sought her for sex after seeing her advertised on an internet site. mr. president, every day across this country there is another desiree being trafficked. some of these children are not yet teenagers. they should be going to basketball games and birthday parties. instead, they're being taken to homes and hotels to be violated by strangers. some, like desiree, will die there. mr. president, fighting trafficking has to be a priority for all of us, and i'm proud to have helped traffic two -- to have helped draft two bills earlier. while we've passed some good legislation over the past two years, there is a lot more work that needs to be done. there are many more desirees out there in danger, and we have an obligation to do everything that we can to protect them. the stop enabling sex traffickers act will strike an important blow against this new wave of t

mr. president, we also heard some powerful, powerful testimony from yvonne am bring to a -- yvonne ambrose whose daughter was sex trafficked before she was murdered. she was a bright loving girl who dreamed of becoming a doctor in the air force. instead she was raped and murdered by a man twice her age who sought her for sex after seeing her advertised on an internet site. ms. ambrose's powerful testimony helped the members of our committee understand the terrible pain that victims of sex trafficking and their families are exposed to. and i'm very thankful to her for sharing desiree's story. this bill has already cleared the house of representatives, mr. president, by an overwhelming margin, and i encourage my colleagues here in the senate to reject any attempts to slow this bill down with amendments. this has been very carefully and thoroughly vetted through the many processes that senator portman described. we need to get this bill over the finish line, on the president's desk, and signed into law, because there are thousands of children out there who are waiting for our help. so, again, i commend senator portman and his colleagues here in the senate who have wo

and the future is bright because of these students, but it's up to us to make sure what happened in parkland never happens again. mr. president, i yield the floor. mr. wyden: mr. president? the presiding officer: the senator from oregon. mr. wyden: mr. president, in a few minutes, the senate will vote on the nomination of mr. kevin mcaleenan to serve as commissioner of u.s. customs and border protection. as the ranking democrat on the committee on trade policy, i am particularly interested in working with mr. mcaleenan on an issue that is of long-stan long-standing bipartisan concern, and that is tougher, smarter enforcement of america's trade laws. mr. mcaleenan is a longtime public servant, and he has been aware that the finance committee has put in many hours over the last few years to guarantee that this agency has tough, new tools to fight trade cheats and protect our workers. it is vital that those tools be put to good use because their trade-related mission -- defending american jobs from trade ripoffs -- has too often gotten short shrift. doesn't matter what kind of trade deals you sign or laws put on the b
