office, and i think that is true, but i remember a few years ago when barack obama made a speech at ann arbor, proposing the possibility that if universities continued to raise tuition in the way they would, he would cut the amount of federal financial aid available, which was a great threat to the fiscal situation in universities across the country, which build in the notion there will be a certain level of increase in tuition every year. boards of trustees throughout the country and administrators in every university went nuts thinking, this is a real assault. talk about cutting the budget for the nsf is one thing but this is a major assault, and clearly one of the issues in the united states today is this motion that universities have become prohibitively expensive. and that we can no longer justify asking students to take on the debt loads that they take on. so, the privilege of the university researcher in the research one university is set in contrast to the vulnerability of the undergraduate who leaves with 50 or 60 or 100,000s in debt. you have a very volatile. situation so at some po

now, the company says it wants to buy this pork producer, farmland, arbor brand, wants to buy so it theyk. but, clearly, when you have a big chinese company buying a stake, a big part of the food supply in the u.s., that's what's raising concerns, carol. >> i think the first question that pops to mind are the safety questions surrounding the food. as we all know, china has had its problems with that and most recently you had this big case, there was a company in china accused of dumping rotting pig carcasses into a river and chinese consumers very upsettant their own food safety. so the deal, what they're saying about this deal. what fishes are saying is this is to buy pork produced in the u.s. for export to china. listen, carefully, charles grassley, a senator, he wants the doj to look into this i said we are nine meals away from a revolution. so a safe and sustainable food supply is critical to national security. this deal is supposed to be for the export of pork to china, but who is to say it couldn't turn around and some day be the import of products into the u.s. under the smithfiel

and i think we have made substantial progress, a big move in the right direction, so that we ramp up arbor maintenance trust fund spending for dredging and other delineated purposes. in a few years between now and roughly 2019, 2020, we have a steady rampup. we spend more of that trust fund on the agreed-upon delineated purposes every year, building toward full spendout of the trust fund. again, this is the product of a lot of discussion and goodwill negotiation with other members of the senate, including leaders of the appropriations committee. and that's a major element -- positive element of this bill. number five, we also made important reforms and changes to the inland waterway trust fund. there again, there's been real frustration that those inland waterway trust fund projects have been languishing, have not properly gotten the resources they need to be completed and get off the books. we make real reforms on the inland waterway trust fund side that'll have important, positive impacts to get those important projects built. six, we provide nonfederal sponsors of many of these projects
