our bill, the energy and water bill will be 37.5 billion. however, the entire federal as budget is a lot more than 1,000,000,000,000 dollars. in fact, in fact, it is four times as much. so we're the entire federal budget this year is $3.9 billion. so we are talking abouts appropriated dollars of about 1,000,000,000,000 dollars plus about 3,000,000,000,000 other dollars that will spend this year through the federal government. those dollars are iose dollars are what we call mandatory or automatic spendingt plus interest on the debt. federal health care spending is an example, that is about $1 trillion. about the same amount of all the 12 appropriation bills that will be considering. the senate for medicare and s medicaid services is in charge of spending about 88 6,000,000,000 dollars dollars every year. almost all mandatory spending. s so the part of the budget that weird talking about today and we will be talking about for the next 12 weeks is one fourth of the total federal spending. for i want to thank senator and the majority leader for

bill: no.eople called us gv anyway. it was the easiest thing. but with the alphabet structure, to call it google ventures would kind of mislead in a way that we would not call it verily ventures. it is broader than that. it is not a google service. we tried literally 1000 or so different names and we thought gv was the most obvious evolution. emily: what is the relation between gv and off of that? bill: the same as it was between gv and google before this. we have a separate entity. i am now the ceo of it gv but we , make our investments in whatever that we like. emily: they have no access to information about start up strategies or details? bill: no, they have a similar access to information that any limited partner would get in terms of final -- of financial information, etc., but i have got no incentive to share details about what a startup is doing, as i would with intel versus google versus facebook. our job is to generate returns and help the companies grow. emily: in the world of venture

kin singer's bill does -- kinzinger's bill does. it says f.c.c., you cannot, you shall not, you will not do rate regulation. it is not what the american people want to see. it is what the f.c.c. has promised they will not do. so what we are doing is helping a federal agency keep their word and keep their promise and not get in to rate regulation. of course we all know that what they would like to do is regulate the internet so they can tax the internet. so they can then come in and set all the rates. so they can then come in and assign priority and value to content. it is a commerce issue. it is a free speech issue. it is an issue for the american people who want to make certain that the information service they have known and appreciated and utilize every day in the virtual marketplace is not going to be regulated by a federal government agency. i yield back. the chair: the gentlewoman from tennessee yields back the balance of her time. the gentlewoman from california is recognized. ms. eshoo: thank you, mr. speaker. i would note t

h.r. 4820 is nothing more than than a message bill a bill that says the message -- sends a message to d.h.s. to focus its countermessaging effortson the foreign terrorist groups. domestic terror groups, like foreign terror group organizations, recruit and spread propaganda through social media and online platforms. this bill ignores the fact that the mess -- that domestic terror groups, like foreign terrorist organizations, kill americans. since september 11, terrorists espousing the ideology of foreign terrorist organizations are responsible for killing 45 innocent americans on u.s. soil. during the same period, members of the -- members of domestic terrorist organizations murdered more than 48 americans. if you ask law enforcement leaders across this country what keeps them up at night, they will likely say the prospect that there's a sovereign citizen group or militia plotting in their jurisdiction. just last month, the atlanta police chief testified before my committee that he is deeply concerned about homegrown extremists and militia activity. his testimony echoed the results of

bill: no.mily: how do you balance whether something is impossible? lose money, need to be correct, i need to be right, then that is the wrong business for you. emily: is that the luxury of working at google? bill: no. if we all lose money, we will not have a job anymore to it we go in optimistic there is a cure for but skeptical of every approach. that is just science. we have bioengineers and physicians on the team who spend their careers on this kind of thing. we're ok being wrong sometimes or even most of the time. google gives you as much money as you want. put it inuld not those terms are we all try to be rational. how much money can we reasonably invest and expect a good return. we do not have to fun race. it's is probably one third of our time, which will be spent raising money, with companies and other things, which is a great benefit for us. once likened a fund-raising of secret to a bank heist. --the time, it was taken in as an unfriendly comment but since then, the market has changed

this bill -- economicess p.j.age. -- espionage. this bill will help our economic security. our intellectual property laws includes everything from patenters, copyrights and trademarks and trade secrets but what are trade secrets? trade secret law is used to protect some of the most iconic inventions in america. for example, a trade secret can recipes like colonel sanders secret recipe of 11 herbs and spices and coca-cola housed in the vault of world of coca-cola in atlanta, georgia. however, trade secrets are simply not isolated to the realm of food and beverages. they can include confidential formulas like the formula for wd-40, manufacturing techniques, customer lists and algorithms like google's search engine. trade secrets occupy a unique place in the i.p. portfolios of our most innovative companies. but because they are unregistered and not formally reviewed like patents, they are no limitations on discovering a trade secret by fair, lawful methods, such as reverse engineering or independent development. in innovative industries, that is simply the free market at work.

bill: that was third week in february. >> yes. bill: any second thoughts. >> no.wind since then, bill. certainly in western new york, the popularity of donald trump and pledge to bring back our jobs, secure the borders. the rally last night was electric with the crowds chanting usa, usa, usa, build the wall, build the wall. it was an electric crowd filling our hockey arena, the first niagra center. today's vote, we're just going to be coming off of that great rally and donald trump is going to do spectacularly well in new york, whether he sweeps all 95 or, you know, gets 85, depending on the 50% vote count per congressional district, it will be a fright day. it will help him get to the magic 1237. bill: you told me two months ago, loss of jobs resonates there for trump. >> it still does. bill: go to western pa, ohio, michigan, the same story. do you still think that? >> it is. you're seeing the endorsements come from a couple of us in new york and pennsylvania. kind of contiguous districts if you will where nafta was devastating and tpp, the trans-pacific partners

the second bill is a bill that raises the limit for small financial institutions, community banks, up to $5 billion. we are talking about 400 banks. not the biggest banks. in fact, the biggest banks in america are almost $1 trillion. we are talking about $5 billion in consolidated assets in banks and savings and loans. these are community-based financial institutions. there is about 400 of them. they are struggling right now. we are losing a community bank a day in this country and we need to make sure we do everything we can to help those community banks continue. i know that's a bipartisan effort to do that. way may not be the exact the other side of the aisle wants to move forward on that. i offer to the ranking member of the financial services committee yesterday in the rules committee that i would be happy to work with her on some other method if she thinks she wants to use an activity test, if she wants to require some kind of loans to assets, if she wants to require some kind of capital in this, i would be happy to work with her because we've got to help our community banks. i

i believe this is a good bill, a fair bill. it does contain trade-offs and hard choices, and we have worked together to settle differences. obviously the chair is the chair, and the views come number one. but in the case of this chair, he has been eminently fair, and i'm very grateful for that. as he said, our allocation is $37.5 billion. that's a $350 million increase over fy 2016. given the top-line budget constraints, this is a good allocation. let me first talk about the defense portion of the bill. defense spending in this bill is $20 billion, a $450 million increase over fy 2016. our defense spending includes funding for cleaning up the environmental legacy of the cold war, maintaining our nuclear deterrent, supporting our nuclear navy, and partnering with allies to keep nuclear materials out of the hands of terrorists. funding for our nuclear deterrent this year is $9.3 billion, $438 million above last year and equal to the president's budget request. the science and engineering activities needed to maintain the nuclear

bill. it urges the i.r.s. to make available printed copies of i.r.s. publication 17, as has been said, the tax guide for individuals. to taxpayers free of charge. according to the i.r.s., printing and shipping copies of this publication costs them $500,000 last year. will the republicans fund this important service for taxpayers? no. better yet, will they increase funding for customer services broadly? like answering taxpayer phone calls or investing in cybersecurity to prevent fraud? no. instead, republicans have cut the i.r.s.'s budget by close to $1 billion, $1 billion since 2010. as a consequence of those cuts, the state of i.r.s.'s customer service today is inexcusable. if republicans want the i.r.s. to improve the services they provide to taxpayers, they need to provide adequate funding for the i.r.s. they need to increase it instead of cutting it as they have in previous years. this bill's also a distraction from the republicans' inability to act on what really matters, the budget bi
