listen, allegheny college and president jim melon honor something unique. foundation of democracy, the two pillars are civility and compromise and in the past we've honored joe biden and john mccain, last year was justice scalia and justice ginsburg. there's ways we can in our democracy have disparate points of view, strong points of view but we need to be civil in challenging one another and let that process work out in the form of compromise to advance america's broader interest. that's what allegheny college feels is necessary and i'm very proud to be associated with my friend in the college and we grateful to cnn for letting us break the news. >> i'm getting texts from friends from erie saying how great it is to see you out and about. thank you. >> good to be with you. >> alisyn? >> that looked like the tour bubu bus. beto o'rourke was a punk rocker in a punk rock band. >>> we need to give you an important update on those families separated at the border. a judge made an important decision regarding those kids separated from their parents. we'll bring t

allegheny county's fortunate to call this hardworking citizen one of its own. i yield back. the speaker pro tempore: for what purpose does the gentleman from california seek recognition? without objection, the gentleman is recognized for one minute. >> mr. speaker, today i rise to pose a simple question. what is merit-based immigration? because it would seem that we have a different interpretation han our president. ponchu came to this country legally and joined the army while pursuing a ph.d. he came to our country to be an american and to contribute to the greatness of our nation, just like other generations before all of us. he's one of more than 10,000 legal immigrants offered a chance to become a citizen through service and sacrifice. these legal immigrants enlist in our armed forces with vital skills. mr. correa: they have education, are meritorious and they are needed. but this administration has now made going after legal immigrants one of its primary goals. when they threaten to deport doctors in the army, the administration is going after legal immigrants. when i.c

they pushed into the broad allegheny in the twilight. the southern tower of the current seized the raft jerking it downstream. the flows of ice pressed against them waged between the moving slow it jostled and bumped, driven underwater by the force of the current of the floating ice threatening to capsize. we expected every moment for it to sink in for ourselves to perish, washington recorded in his journal. determined to save himself and the important mission, washington shoved his poll to the river bottom and leaned on it with his powerful six-foot frame to study the raft. the strength and horsemanship that distinguished him in the te virginia plantation meant nothing here. the river' is powerful crenshaw to the raft into the full while washington clung on to with suddenly snapping it forward like an arm of a catapult. the force flow in washington into the deep swirling water. he admitted a reflexive gas as he was immersed in a splash among the ice flows arms reaching out. the human body can survive only a few minutes in water just abo

under secretary reeves: i have not been to the alleghenies yet. one of my senior colleagues at v.a. actually went and spoke there on memorial day. that's what we do is we ask our senior folks to go out to all of our cemeteries. and she came back raving about the beauty of the cemetery and the outpouring, mainly, of the community, for that program. i'm impressed with what they are doing there and i am impressed and glad that you mentioned that, because that's one of the highlighted places that i had. mr. lamb: i'm thrilled to hear that. i'm running out of time. i'd like to personally invite you out there the next chance you get. i'd love to have you there and explore ways to expand the educational offerings. i think there are some infrastructural needs there as ewl -- well, with it being a newer cemetery that just came online. i yield back the balance of my time. under secretary reeves: i ask pleasing encourage the schools in your area to apply. chairman bost: if it's all right with the blessing of the committee, i have a couple more questions i'd like to ask. mr. avila, your testimo

technologies and steel dynamics both as you can see are jumping we've got allegheny better and steel dynamics up 2.5% all of the steel names are looking pretty darn strong along with ak steel and u.s. and the big loser today and this brings us into the whole trade conversation is whirlpool. remember yesterday i told you they're coming out after the bell we'll get a sense of what tariffs do to a company because remember, back in january, on the 23rd those were the first tariffs that the president called for and put into place on foreign washing machines. well the home appliance maker, all-american, that it originally praised president trump's tariff s on imported washing machines calling it a positive catalyst for whirlpool now admits it is feeling consequences of the steel and aluminum tariffs so it's not necessarily the washing machine tariffs but higher raw material prices have raised costs for whirlpool by $350 million. stock is just getting hammered down nearly 14% right now for whirlpool but let me dovetail back and switch to the dow jones industrial still managing to hold on to

the allegheny department posted this photo of a car with tinted windows. he was 19 years old and worked at a medical legal marijuana service. he was targeted by the gun mann and his job may be connected to the murder. san jose police say it is a complete mystery why the driver lowered a crossing arm and cost him his life when the car was struck by a passing vta train, a horrible accident. david has the story. >> let's face it. a lot of drivers are impatient when a train is approaching. when the crossing arms come down, as they're about to do right now, that means something. quite frankly, san jose police say the driver of a buick sedan made a bad decision. not all vca crossings have retractable arms to warn vehicles of approaching trains. this one does, where a security video of the hopper's brewery shows it warning with the lowering crossing arms. a train with light rail trains was crossing and shoved the car down the track. >> the person did not come to a full stop and for whatever reason drilled around it. why? it's a mystery at this time. we don't know
