the iconic first amendment. or why the criminal procedure amendment, are ordered as they are. why is the fourth amendment fourth? and immediately before the fifth? why does the sixth followed the fifth and why does the eighth amendment and the criminal procedure arrayed? finally we do not ask why madison closes the bill of rights his great poem to freedom and democracy with a tantalizing ninth amendment that holds out the promise of recognizing new non-textual rights and an austere tenth amendment that freezes government powers at the level of text in short in 21st century america, despite our newfound preoccupation with the importance of legal text and despite the emergence of an immensely powerful free speech clause, i fear we've lost the ability to the deep harmony that emerges from the order, structure and organization of the bill of rights all 462 words with not an idea or a clause out of place. briefly the first amendment has a careful vertical -- the bill of rights has a careful vertical organization that

this is an amendment, casey amendment -- or amendment number 203. amendment number 2. i'm trying to insist that the buy america provisions which have been in effect for decades adheres well to this agreement. so that the effect of the amendment if it were to pass and be implemented would be to remove fast track privileges from any agreement that weakens or undermines the buy american act act. in particular, and this is the basics of it in terms of impact, it would simply mean that in a trade agreement we'd ensure that the agreement itself doesn't do one of three things. it doesn't weaken. it doesn't undermine. nor would it necessitates the waiver of the buy american act provisions of -- the buy american act itself as well as the buy american provisions of the service for transportation act of 1982. and i'd ask for a voice vote. >> i oppose this amendment. policies like this may be intended to shelter industries but the result is always retaliation and the closing of borders to american goods. instead i support increasing american access to the government procurement ma

>> i have an amendment at the desk. the chair: the clerk will report the amendment. the clerk: amendment offered by mr. murphy of florida, page 16, line 16, after the dollar amount insert increased by $1 million, page 7 line 3 insert decreased by $1 million. the chair: the chair now recognizes the gentleman from florida. mr. murphy: i want to thank the chair and ranking member for their extremely hard work on the underlying bill and ongoing commitment to everglades restoration. i rise today because of this very moment in my district in florida, toxic blew-green algae is threatening the area. the amendment i'm offering along with the gentleman from florida will enhance the restoration efforts in south florida and help put a stop to this vicious cycle once and for all. the watershed stretches as far north as orlando. due to rapid development, the natural flow of water from north to south where the system has been severely disrupted and inundated with freshwater discharges that harm our communities east and west of the lake. florida bay needs fresh water to restore natu

i oppose this amendment. first the amendment is too broad. it would require operational nuclear war plans and related analysis. the committee does not require that kind of thing. second eod already provided information to the committee and gao. we received a conference of document containing analysis of the information contained in the triad and i think the gentleman made reference. i don't know whether guessing that diad -- triad. the gentleman would like to get another briefing on this topic with dod would be happy to come and read it based on a simple e-mail request. i urge my colleagues to vote no and i yield back. >> is there further discussion on the amendment? if not the question is on the amendment offered by the gentleman from california mr. garamendi. those in favor say aye. those opposed a bill. the no's have it. he knows have it. the amendment is not agreed to. for what purpose does the gentleman from virginia mr. whitman rise? >> mr. chairman and this point onward that we change the time for debate for members from five minutes t

the iconic first amendment or why the criminal procedure amendments of four through eight are ordered as they are. why is the 4th amendment 4th and immediately before the 5th? why does the 6th follow the 5th and why does the 8th amendment and the criminal procedure parade? finally, finally, we do not ask why madison closes the bill of rights his great form to freedom and democracy, with a tantalizing 9th amendment that holds out the promise of recognizing new nonsexual rights and an austere 10th 10th amendment that freezes government powers at the level of text. in short, in 21st century america despite our newfound preoccupation with the importance of legal text and despite the emergence of an immensely powerful free speech clause i feel i feel we have lost the ability to use the department is that emerges from the order and structure and organization of the bill of rights all 462 words with not an idea or cause other place. very very briefly the first amendment has a careful vertical bill of rights careful vertical organization that begins in the first amendment with a disciplined b

amendment number 65. my amendment would create a fund jointly managed and available to agencies for the enforcement of implementation of free trade agreement so we could make sure that we are enforcing these agreements. it would be capitalized through existing antidumping and countervailing duties, which are collect it. this amendment would require the u.s. government to study current efforts of making sure that enforcement happens. this legislation makes a lot of long needed improvements to the trade enforcement regime particularly as it relates to our duties. one of the critical questions we need to ask ourselves -- did agencies have the ability to force the trade deals and the resources they need to do their job? lester the government and ability office issued a damning report on ability of the department of labor and ability to enforce labor provisions of the free trade agreement. the gao found that they had four people in its office of labor affairs who in addition to enforcing labor conditions were

amendment. >> thank you, and i would like to call up amendment schumer burr brown portman number one. >> without objection. >> thank you. i asked senator stamina now, casey, and cartman be added as cosponsors. we filed this amendment. but after much discussion with some of my colleagues who indicated concerns about jermaine this and have said all along that i think that this amendment is important on its own i worked out an agreement with chairman hatch for which i thank him to offer this amendment only here on customs. customs. we will not be asking for a vote on tpa. now, as i discussed with many of you in recent weeks and really three years now i believe currency manipulation is the most significant emerging trade challenge not currently being used. many of you have supported over 60 votes in the floor of the senate. under existing law if the commerce department finds that subsidized imports are causing economic onto american manufacturers and workers the administration must impose duties on

turner's amendment? without objection the amendment is considered as read and the gentlemen from ohio is recognized for five minutes. >> i would like to offer this amendment and lend my strong feelings of concern over this week's announcement that the u.s. might accelerate dismantling of nuclear war heads by 20% and this would cap the dismantle budget at $50 million and prohibit dismantlement of those retired after 2009 and includes a prohibition of cruise nuclear war heads for five years. this amendment sets priorities. dismantlement is not a high priority. this amendment doesn't contradict any of the obligations and any of our current arms control treaties and none of those require us to dismantle our nuclear war heads. a cap of $50 million for the next five years is more than appropriate. in the plan is around $50 million. 48 million in fy 16, 50 in 18 and 52 in fy 19 and 51 for fy 20. the budget request plans to focus five years on dismantle war heads prior to 2009. this provides enough money to do t

amendment. >> so not until tonight thank you for that. the problem we have joined i no a fair amount about the a-10 but in the late 80s and early 90s the air force promised the united states we have 750 air force 20 choose and ended up buying 195. they so we can live without the a-10 because we will have 2,457 f3 five at sometime in the future. there were amendments today to reduce the buyer. what we have got is a system that works right now. we can crank it up and it is ready to go right now. the false choice seems to be we have to give up this system that works right now to fund these things. i am happy to help you work these things. i want them funded as well and hope we can find other areas to pull money from but the air force assumption if they do the same thing they did with the f-22 instead they would have 25 percent and they would be screaming to have the a-10 back. i suggest coming from the farm if it ain't broke, don't fix it. >> well the gentleman yield? >> i will be happy to. >> the

>> i have an amendment at the mark. >> clerk will pass out the amendment. without objection we'll dispense with the reading of the amendment and the gentle lady is recognized for five minutes for the purpose of explaining and offering her amendment. >> mr. chairman thank you. this is really a companion to miss davis' recommendation. i'm going to offer this amendment. i'm going to withdraw it because it was double referred but i felt very strongly that we need to address this. this is the issue of for profit colleges preying particularly on those in the military. these schools charge five to six times more than comparable programs at community colleges. these for-profit schools often leave students entrenched in debt with no degree or with a degree in an unaccredited program that cannot get them a job after graduation. as miss davis pointed out, 40% of the gi bill dollars are now going to for-profit schools. over the past five years in california alone, more than $600 million has been spent in college assistance for veterans of the wars in iraq and afghanist

because this amendment reappeared in the 1980's and was ratified as the 27th amendment. you can take people into think about issues that were debated in the 1789 summer. how many are still with us today? quite a few. they are perennial issues in the story of american government. we want to have the kids or teachers go in and have a chance to talk about some of those issues and how you feel about them because it is part of understanding who you are as a citizen by understanding how you feel. this brief overview introduces you to have congress created the bill of rights. you can download a free copy from the app store. a pdf version will be available soon from the website. the history presented in the app is also available as an e-book you can download from itunes with the same title. more detailed information on how to get a copy is contained in the card that has a q/r code on the back. you can a new or ipad added and it will take you to the download page. please take a look and explore and enjoy more of this rich history. thank you.

>> amendment at the desk. clerk clrk can amendment offered by mr. mulvaney of south carolina, strike title 4. the chair: for what purpose does the gentleman from pennsylvania seek recognition? mr. dent: reserve a point of order. the chair: pursuant to house resolution 223 the gentleman from south carolina and a member opposed each will control five minutes. the chair recognizes the gentleman from south carolina. mr. mulvaney: i want to read something at the beginning of this quote abuse of the overseas contingency operation, global war on terror is a backdoor loophole that undermines the budget process. the budget committee will oppose increases that our military commanders say unless it can be demonstrated that such amounts are war-related. end quote. that is from last year's house-passed budget report. last year, this body took a position that we weren't going to use the global war on terror budget in order to get around the b.c.a. caps. the appropriations bill as currently offered does exactly that. it spends $532 million in the o.c.o. budget for

this amendment, i think we should accept this amendment. there's nothing wrong with this amendment and china is not the same as indonesia or singapore or even japan or korea. it deserves support and i thank senator graham for offering it. >> abu wanted wanton influence in asia we are going to have to pass tpa and we are going to have to get tpp put together right. i will send messages so we can never otherwise send so without this bill we are never going to accomplish what both of you would like to do. but me just say this. the tpa bill that senator wyden and i introduced already tackles the concern that this amendment seeks to address. arpaio already requires that the president take into account all of the congressional negotiating objectives before commencing negotiations with any country. that will include china. if in the future china became interested in joining the tpp. section 5 a. of erbil sets out detailed consultation and reporting requirements that the president must follow before entering into negotiations with any country. the

let's go to amendments. i'll recognize senator stouffer. >> now, i filed this amendment and i'm not going to offer it because i think there's been some accommodation that takes care of questions i asked ambassador frome on. be with me a moment when i explain what i'm up to and intend to do in the future if things don't work out this way. i want to mention the amendment i filed to the tpp bill. i don't ask for a vote today but i want to reiterate my concerns about trade agreements containing immigration provisions. even before i became chairman of the judiciary committee, when i was chairman and ranking member of this committee, i opposed previous administration's attempts to include immigration provisions and nanddemanded the judiciary committee will relayed on anything dealing with immigration. usdr included immigration in agreements with china and sing mother a -- singapore in 2003. these consultations are nearly consultations, and they do not provide a mechanism for ensuring that changes to the immigratio

the click amendment. >> the clerk will pass at the amendment and without objection the amendment will be considered as red. >> thank you, mr. chairman. i am trying to give them a chance to ask at least a fair number before we start discussing some of us have the chance. >> the gentleman from connecticut is recognized for five minutes to discuss as a member. >> thank you, mr. chairman. it's a pretty simple amendment to strike language in the mark with a new change to the modernization program the chairman referred to a minute or so ago. in framing this amendment i want people to recall when we passed the omnibus in december, the congress enacted a shipbuilding modernization program for again a bone of contention with committee and the administration in the navy over the last four years. i want to start isolating mr. forbes "forbes" in terms of leadership in making sure cruisers that are an essential part are protected. we saw this recently with the uss theodore roosevelt iranian ship you the coast of yemen a cruiser was right there for the aircraft carrier. the examples of why this is

this amendment, mr. speaker, ensures that information shared with the nccic is limited to threats and information against information system and information stored on that system and with that i yield back. yes, i'll yield. mr. mccaul: i support this bipartisan amendment that will help clarify language in both the homeland security act and this bill by narrowing the definition of the word incident to ensure that a cybersecurity incident is limited to actions taken against an information system or information stored on that system. this amendment ensures that information shared with the nccic or other private entities is limited actions to against information systems and information stored on that system. i also want to thank the gentleman from california, mr. mcclintock, for being a leader on this issue in calling this loophole, if you will, to the attention of the committee to make this a stronger bill on this floor and with that i yield back to the gentleman. mr. ratcliffe: and i yield back. the chair:

chairman, i have an amendment. >> the clerk will pass out the amendment.ithout objection the amendment is considered as read. the gentleman from texas is recognized for five minutes on his amendment. >> i thank you, mr. chairman. i would often withdraw this amendment are unlikely to ask for a folder called to take this opportunity to highlight a shortfall in the carrier fleet as a result of normal maintenance and other things going on. we're now down to 11. this admin would raise that carrier fleet to 12 by 2023 and would help sustain that. the current place is under stress given -- would start by 2023 to put the other carrier in place, but the big point is the deployments are excessive and long and wearing out the sailors demand these fleets, and it's quite frankly is nine and 10 months or longer deployments according -- [inaudible conversations] i'm sorry. mr. chairman i apologize for that. i thought it was already on seapower. >> we are moving fast but not that fast. >> exactly. i apologize for that. the program is an operational program for communicati

i withdraw the amendment. >> the amendment is withdrawn. i move to strike a number of words and would yield myself briefly on this topic. first, the ranking member has been consistent in pushing for a number of years. and i think he makes a lot of valid points. the only reason i take a moment is just to bring attention to a point that chairman whitman brought in his, made in his opening comments and that is there is a section in the mark section 2814 which says we need to have a fore structure plan we need to have an inventory of the infrastructure, and we need a plan to put the two together. so that we have a better understanding of what installations and infrastructure we need. now, we have heard for years this 20% excess infrastructure argument that is based on an estimate from before the 2005, which as the ranking member mentioned, has not yet paid for itself. it may be an anomaly. but my point is before we go down the road i'd like to have a better understanding of really where we are with our infrastructure. i'm saying we need a bette

in 1869, congress tacked on an additional amendment, the 15th amendment. the south would also be required to ratify that made it unconstitutional to deny anyone, north or south, the right to vote based on race, color or previous condition of servitude. for a time, there was a remarkable moment in the south where african-american men voted, served on juries, in state militias and in federal and state offices. in 1868, 600 black republicans elected to state legislatures. 14 to the house, two to the senate, six lieutenant governors thousands of judges and , sheriffs. jefferson davis' old senate seat in mississippi would be held by hiram rebels, and african-american. african-americans on juries and in a number of southern cities they integrated the police force, including new orleans where they integrated the detective bureau. african american detectives will be solving some of the most high-profile crimes in 1870, the theme of my new book, "the new orleans kidnapping case," which profiles one detective. here was a much more expansive meaning for the civil war

that was the 1st amendment and now we are here for the 2nd amendment. i went over the parks. those are the technical names of the parks. i will have the map up for you in a second. we have p 1, p 2 and p 5 and the parks that are directly under the contract. the original contract was for 3 years and there was the bill to extend the contract for another 3 years. we are in that second contract term. the contract will expire at the end of this year. so later this year, oci will have to go out to bid for these services. so here is an overview of which director bohee covered. oci manages the park on behalf of cie and by the community facilities district no. 5. the park underlying ownership of puc. we have over 13 acres of these parks completed and the fourth park under construction that we are here before you today. so, you have a handout as attachment one. i'm going over the parks, the four parks that we are here today and we are going to start with p 6 which is the children's park and i was also before you for the commission to approve this schematic design for the children's par

so i without going through these minor amendments. i just ask that they be amended. colleagues, let's work together to bringing families back to san francisco. i hope you will join me in supporting the work of this council today. thank you. >> okay. seeing no other names on the roster, supervisor ye just for clarity, you propose the specific amendment? >> the amendments are included in the handout. i do receive latest version. and they're all minor. pretty much cleaned up language. >> okay. so supervisor ye, are you makes a motion to move forward with those amendments? >> yes. >> okay. supervisor ye has made a motion seconded by supervisor campos. can we take those amendments without objection? without objection those ealts pass. and on the underlying item, can we take this item same house same call? seeing no objection, the ordinance is passed unanimously on the first reading. >> as amended. >> as amended -- thank you, madam clerk. okay. so we have done our commendations. and we will skip over that and go to our committee reports. madam clerk, can you please call it

stripped from the amendment. so i urge all senators to support my bipartisan amendment. i thank senators collins and heitkamp for their steadfast and very strong support. we have to support the efforts of dedicated service providers. they make these programs work. we have to protect these kids. the most important thing is not being in a position the only time we can act arrives after the fact. let's prevent them from being trafficked in the first place. prevention will cost money but it's going to save lives and it's going to prevent the far more costly effects of human trafficking. smart money we ought to be ready to invest in our children. i think we have to include the runaway and homeless youth to the trafficking and prevention act in our efforts to prevent more of our kids from becoming victims. i've said so many times on this floor -- i almost grow weary of hearing myself say it -- i prosecuted some of the cases involving these. and it was nowhere near the problem back when i was a prosecutor that is it tha

citing the authorities of the amendments that gave congress the power to enforce those amendments the civil rights act included language that said that all people within the jurisdiction of the united states shall regardless of race, be entitled to the full and equal enjoyment of the accommodations, advantages, and privileges of public places theaters, and places of amusement. the act reflected republicans's believe that being an -- a citizen included equal access to public accommodations licensed by states. businesses north and south quickly run a foul of the law. the federal court is filled with litigation as business owners challenged indictments and finds -- finds they face. the supreme court had cases from multiple states, combined into what was known collectively as the civil rights cases. in two of these cases, white business owners denied african-americans hotel rooms. in two, they were denied him -- admission to the opera. in one, railroad officials refuse to allow an african-american woman to ride in the ladies car of the train. in 1883, the supreme court declared the civil

>> so move the amendment and then move approval as amended. okay? >> i'm sorry. do we have a copy of that amendment? >> i do not believe you have a copy of the amendment but i will be sending one to the clerk. >> ah, okay. supervisor tang. >> sorry, i must have missed that. >> sorry, can you restate for the record what that amendment is. >> sure, it's removing lines 12 through 14 on page one. it reads ratifying and approving any action heretofore taken in connection with a note and a project as defined here in. granting city authority to take action to implement this resolution as defined here in and related matters. >> so let me withdraw my motion so we can have a conversation about that. >> through the chair, i just wanted to follow-up. can you just elaborate us why we're removing this? what is the emphasis on removing that? >> this is at the request of the madam clerk of the board. my understanding is that it has to do with just general approval of matters. specifically, the clerk will like to have matters come before the board for approval. this just takes ou

further that there be no second-degree amendments in order to the amendment and that it require 60 -- a 60 affirmative vote threshold for the adoption of the amendment. the presiding officer: is there objection? without objection so ordered. mr. corker: if i could just follow up, mr. president i've been in extensive conversations with former secretary of state condoleezza rice who i know has tremendous respect on this side of the aisle. she sent out a release today in response in response to this amendment that's coming before us today that the proposed iranian nuclear agreement is classically an executive agreement and doesn't need to be a treaty with the advice and consent of the senate. this is our former secretary of state under george w. bush. but congress should be able to opine given the congressionally mandated sanctions would have to be lifted. i think that everybody on our side of the aisle understands that with four tranches, four tranches of sanctions that congress put in place we brought them to the table with senator menendez leading that effort. and in each of those cas

and this amendment amendment as well-intended as it is, is an amendment that would very much compromisewhat we've tried to do in a bipartisan way and that's to make sure that this senate and the house has an orderly way to consider any deal struck between our negotiating partners in the united states and iran. that's our responsibility, and we're going to stay focused on that and we're going to end with a bipartisan product that is -- i think in the best traditions of the united states senate. so i resp -- so i respect very deeply my colleague's commitment to israel. i do. all of us are committed to israel. but let's think about what is the most important thing for israel. and that is having a strong agreement that prevents iran from becoming a nuclear weapon state. let's focus on that because that, i think this bill helps us achieve. i yield the floor. mr. rubio: mr. president? the presiding officer: the senator from florida. mr. rubio: and i appreciate the senator from maryland's passion and he makes points that i think are very relevant to the debate once we are on the amendment. tha

there also were 20-something amendments in homeland security and amendments in intelligence. these are vetted bills. are there times that some may want others? yes. that's why i'm voting for this rule and moving this forward is the proper thing to do. let's also -- before we also move back from this, i want to talk about this need and why we're here even to start with. you know, most americans recognize, understand that the growing attacks against our cybernetworks and critical infrastructure that our laws fail to have proper legal authority of information to be shared. most people don't realize there is this barrier. especially everything that's going on, they don't understand why some of these impediments were put into place that keeps companies from protecting their own but also protecting their own personal information. one of the things that's missing in this debate is the discussion of what's actually happened and the personal information that is shared by these hackers that are getting into our systems. some of the acts perpetrated by north korea sony, blue cross blue

there could be a first amendment issue if the purpose was to try too interfere with the amendment.d other wise it would be difficult to have -- a lot of criminal investigations involve revealing what a person did and by revealing what a person did it will involve what a person thinks and who their friends are and so if the first -- if the first amendment imposed a barrier to that, it is hard to have a lot of criminal investigations generally. so i think the first amendment protective approach i've seen is the ninth circuit which, as i interpreted it amounted to a good faith standard. so the issues are there but they are relatively moderate in most cases. >> yes, sir. >> hi. david clark student at george mason and i want to come back to the sclusary -- exclusionary rule. and when stipg ray and there is a government privilege involved or anything like that, is there a way that you could talk about mr. harper or anyone else, talk about technology and judges aren't so sure what the government is doing, it is not egregious enough or not just a mistake of law or accident or anything like

are there any amendments to the taa bill? senator enzi did you have an amendment? anybody have any amendment? >> senator -- >> i don't see any hands. >> senator cantwell was going first, but i'm ready. >> she's not here, but if you have an amendment, now is the time to bring it up. otherwise i'll move the bill. >> mr. chairman? >> senator? >> thank you, mr. chairman. i have amendments one, two, and three. i ask unanimous consent to roll -- sorry amendment 12 13 and 14. i ask to roll the three into one. >> without objection. >> sorry -- excuse me it's amendment one, two, and three. it says brown one, brown two and brown three. >> without objection. >> thank you, mr. chairman. i -- i call up these amendments of the taa bill and as i said, i ask unanimous consent be considered in block. i ask unanimous consent that senators bennett stabenow, casey, agwell, and menendez be as co-sponsors? >> without objection. >> it would restore the funding levels of taa for workers to $575 million a year. it's the same level that was included in the bipartisan taa bill in 2011. i ear

then some, real quickly, some additional amendments. upon further review i would like to also make these other ones. on page 10, lines 5 to 7, i would like to propose changing the following: right now it states upon the recommendation of the mayor and the superintendent, the council may invite additional city and school district staff and community members to participate in the working groups. so just to clarify, we changed it to the mayor may invite additional city and school district staff and community members to participate in the working groups. it's important to include expert advocates and other leaders in the working group level that are not on the council. this will allow a more streamlined way for non-appointed community members or staff to get involved without having to receive full approval of the council. then on page 9, line 4, i would like to propose striking the following language for c and basically that says the mayor's appointment of public members shall take effect 30 days after transmittal of the mayor's notice of a
