murray. murray didn't want the paramedics to give up at the house. he resisted when they wanted to basically call it. when he got to the emergency room, he also was insistent that, "we got to keep trying. we got to keep trying," but what we found out was that the other doctor that was in charge there said that she didn't see any signs of life, but there was this doctor who knew michael jackson who was saying, "no, i felt a pulse. there's signs of life here. let's keep trying." so they kept up some pretty desperate efforts to get michael's heart beating again, to get him breathing again, and of course, there was no hope. what's clear is that he wasn't honest with medical staff there about the drugs jackson was taking, about the ailments he was suffering from, and about the treatment he had given him. he did not tell them about the propofol, which is the most important thing that he should have mentioned at the time. finally, the doctor who was in charge of the emergency room at ucla medical ce

conrad murray. what do we know about dr. conrad murray? he was struggling financially in many ways. he had four children by three separate women outside his marriage, and he was supporting all those children. i guess through his interactions with dr. murray, michael jackson said, "you should be my personal doctor," and then influenced aeg to hire him to do the "this is it" tour even though aeg didn't want him to be hired. phillips: i said, "it's crazy to take a doctor with us because you're in london." he said, "you don't understand, my body is the machine that fuels this entire business venture, and i'm like barack obama. i need my own physician on the road." and he was so strong about it that i just backed off and said, "this is a battle i can't win." what the world didn't know at the time but later came out in trial is that primarily what he was looking for was to get sleep, which he desperately needed and had trouble sleeping for years prior to that. shortly after being hired by michael jackson, conrad murray started ordering massive s

senator murray. >> thank you. also as you know, i've been working with senator collins from the start of this year to make sure we have an open, bipartisan appropriations process and just last week, 91 senators voted to proceed to our first funding package and every bill in that package passed our committee unanimously this past summer. that is because we are writing serious bipartisan bills that can actually be signed into law. we stuck to the deal that president and speaker shook hands on that congress passed we kept out poison pills and we asked for input from every one of our colleagues. now we are working to move forward on that process and it is no secret that last week we were blocked from voting on amendments and having a real debate on the senate floor by one senator, but i want you to know, we are determined to make sure a handful of senators don't overrule the vast majority of us who worked on this package and want to see it moved forward. we are still working hard in hopes of securing a uc agreement, b

i want to thank senators durbin and murray and stabenow for being here. now, over the past few months, the senate appropriations process has been a shining example of how things should get done in washington. these are times when people are divided. this is a closely divided chamber, but nevertheless, we can summarize the senate's work in funding the government in one word, bipartisan, bipartisan. thanks to the phenomenal work of appropriations chair, patty murray, who you'll hear from in a minute and vice chair, susan collins and numerous colleagues on both sides. all 12 appropriation bills have been reported out of the committee with bipartisan support, the majority with unanimous support. that is incredible at a time when the country is so divided and it's a beacon and it's a great example and a great example to the house of representatives. this month, one of the senate's top priorities will be to keep the government open beyond the september 30 th deadline, both parties in both chambers will have to work together if we are to avoid a shutdown. so whe

senator murray? >> well, like all of my colleagues i've been back home.ith my constituents talking with them about their concerns, priorities and let me tell you they do not just spend the next month wondering if congress is going to fulfill its most basic obligation from the government. here in the senate we have proven there is exactly zero reason for chaos or for shutdown. i am working with vice chair collins, the senate appropriations committee has shown the american people that congress can actually do its job. that we can work in a timely bipartisan way to solve problems and make life better for the communities that we represent. we heard from members on both sides of the aisle. they want to return to regular order and we have been working very hard to make sure and open bipartisan process is going on to make that happen. we held markups with inputs from members on both sides and televise them for the first time ever. so everyone could see what was in them and what was going on. asthe result was real progress r the first time in five years we passed

i want to thank senators murray, shaheen and murphy for being here with us. we are days away once again from a government shut down all at the hands of this endless maga madness. the only way to avoid a shutdown shutdown is very simple. bipartisanship. we need a bipartisan bill in the house. we need a bipartisan bill in the senate. and then we will be able to avoid a shutdown to keep the government funded. yet this week house republicans are trying everything but bipartisanship. even though everyone knows their proposed cr is a total nonstarter in the senate. as note democratic input. instead of pretending to aim for bipartisanship as i said instead of aiming for bipartisanship this is zero democratic input. click calls for a crushing 8% cut to virtually all non-defense spending. extreme republicans are dead set against raising costs and lowering safety for american families. the american people need to know just how bad the house houserepublican extreme cr trul. it is slapdash. it is reckless, it is cruel. it is a slapdash reckless accrual cr for this is sla

but senators murray and collins had us moving in the right direction, a bipartisan direction, and their efforts for this continued resolution. this continued resolution does more to keep the lights on. it includes crucial emergency assistance and program extensions. it includes $6.5 billion to maintain our commitment to ukraine, and $6 billion to help fema respond to federally declared disasters, including one in my state of illinois, where economies are working to recover from the impact of certain storms. it would prevent a lapse of funding for critical community health care centers. i am sure our officers visited many centers in their states. it was one of the amazing products coming out of the affordable care act. i can remember when senators met and demanded we fund these community health care clinics. it was a stroke of genius. it meant that people of limited means would have access to quality medical care. i have said it is not political puffery. i would gladly visit one of these clinics and see treatment because i think they do good. also, special nutrition programs for women an

and i know that senator murray and senator collins worked hard to achieve that. but the committee's productivity was no accident. the chair and the vice chair of the committee promised a return to the regular wait that we have been appropriating money for time in memorial, consistent with the rules of the senate. they followed through on their promise. they used the power that they have as the appropriations committee, and they also embraced their responsibilities. and i applaud them for it. they gave the majority leader exactly, exactly what he needed in order to restore the senate appropriations process to its normal function, according to the rules. but, mr. president, you can't do that by not passing a single appropriations bill in the united states senate ten days before the end of the fiscal year. well, despite the fact that the appropriations committee began passing funding bills on june 22, the majority leader did not even attempt to put the first funding bill on the floor until mid-december. i think it was 18 days before the end of the fiscal year. now i

murray: mr. president. the presiding officer: the senator from washington. mrs. murray: thank you, mr. president. mr. president, reserving the right to object. i share my colleague's concern about making sure our national parks stay open. in fact, i don't want any federal facilities to close their doors, any federal workers to miss a paycheck, or any programs families rely on be undermined by a completely unnecessary shutdown. which is why i am working around the clock to make sure we do pass this bipartisan c.r. package which we released yesterday. so i hope the senior senator from utah will reconsider his recent vote against moving forward on that c.r. and start working with us to get this straightforward c.r. across the finish line so we can avoid this shutdown and get back to passing our 12 batch appropriations -- 12 bipartisan appropriations bills. because that is the only serious solution here. that is the best way to make sure families are able to keep enjoying our national parks, park rangers, and all of our public servants can do the work the american pe

murray: mr. president. the presiding officer: the senator from washington. mrs. murray: mr. president, reserving the right to object. as i have said, i share my colleagues' concern with making sure our servicemembers do not miss a paycheck because of a potential government shutdown. in fact, i do not want any. our federal workers to miss a paycheck, whether they are cancer researchers whose work saves our lives, or brave firefighters who risk their lives for us, and i don't want any programs families rely on to be undermined -- counseling and transition assistance for new veterans adjusting to civilian life, nutrition assistance for seven million moms and kids who need a hand up, and that includes our servicemembers' families. several years ago i worked to save a wic clinic which was going to be kicked off a navy base in my home state of washington, that hundreds of military families counted on. none of those paychecks for any of these workers, and none of those programs should shutter because of a completely unnecessary shutdown. which is why i am working around the clock,
