the notion that when congress gave the senate limited authority to sue and gave the house no authorityo sue, that means the house has more authority and turns the statute on its head. is, in thison of it court, in 1981, the permanent is for seminar briefs. -- 1978that prior to 19 congress had only two means to enforce subpoenas. content accept criminal or its own civil content. that's exactly what the senate report says. we look at page 16 of that senate report when it talks about the need for the statute. it said the exact same thing. somehow working in the background unbeknownst to everyone was the rank of jurisdiction and call to action under 1331. at a minimum it's unclear. are we looking at legislative history. a new day has arrived. scarf off the suits and their suggestion that there was another mythical purpose. but at a minimum there is ambiguity here. there is a serious constitutional question about what this court should do as a matter of constitutional avoidance and restraint and they don't have authority to sue. the results is that if congress wants to sue, congress can pas

i would note that at least 35 other states have authority as well similar to our unfairness authority but have seen fit to enact price gouging statutes including kansas general smith talked about that and the state of connecticut and a lot of other states. so we think that a special law would be helpful here and with respect to that, to that law, what we have and we worked with some of your offices on this, what we would recommend is that the crisis to which the statute applies, be clearly defined and that it be truly national in scope, not one of these regional or local supply shops to address those issues. so it would be narrowly or clearly defined national crisis that the statute applies to that it would be nice if it were to define the types of material or products or services that would be covered, for example, p.p.e., in the current crisis, that there would be a clearly defined trigger such as an increase in price over a precrisis index. 25% increase in price is what some state laws account for and also that there be some acknowledgment that increased costs might be legitimate.

we authority generally does not extend beyond this. the role for declassification is not only resource intensive but also supposes one is responsible for declassification and all is treated the same. the assumption is false and will likely lead to unintended consequence. many agencies have delegated classification authorities specific to holdings. created, classified, and held by the entire government. charging with this broader mandate would have negative consequences and distract from our core mission of activities. the expanded role is also in conflict with and contrary to the constitution is a small body, rather than a large operational organization. the proposed legislation describes the proposed legislation to reform. suggest thosemust who have individual experience and authority over the classified information. consistent with concerns outlined, we believe the dni is not well-suited to share committee for government declassification efforts. while we would welcome further discussion on executive committee on declassification, we

the commission has historically reluctant to use its authority unfairness authority in that way. at least 35 other states have the authority as well. they have seen fit to enact price gouging statutes, including kansas. writtenschmidt in his remarks talked about that. and connecticut and a lot of other states. so, we think that a special law would be helpful here. with respect to that law, what we have -- and we have worked with some of your offices on this. what we would recommend is that the crisis to which the statute be clearly defined and be truly national in scope. not one of these local or regional supply shocks that my call upon the national federal trade commission to address so there would be a narrowly defined or clearly defined national crisis that the statute applies to. it would be nice if it defines the type of materials or services that would be covered. for example, ppe in the current crisis. there should be a clearly defined trigger, such as an increase in price over a precrisis index. so a 25% increase in price, for example, is what some state laws account for.

assign the authority's crackdown is having little effect.latest there on the crisis in belarus. fire has engulfed part of one of africa's best—known universities, makarere, in the ugandan capital kampala. flames have swept through the main administration block, which dates back to the 1940s and destroyed the roof. the building, which is known locally as the ivory tower, is a prominent landmark in the city. there's currently no word of any casualties. one in seven indigenous plant species in the uk is threatened by extinction, according to research from the woodland trust charity. that's why 24—year—old botanist, joshua styles, has made it his mission to bring back local flora. he's already re—introduced 19 endangered species to north west england, some of which disappeared during queen victoria's reign. abbiejones has been to meet him. in the wilderness here, plants extinct for over a century of thriving once again, thanks to a remarkable young man. might not look but this ditch is very, very exciting. this used to be extinct, it was extinct

many, many authors i know of the authors guild have tried in many ways to engage with these large internet platforms like google and ebay and so forth. it's an absolutely frustrating experience because these platforms simply are not capable of engaging with small creators and businesses. to add to your soul can question, really what we are asking for is for notice and stake out. it simply means one an isp has been properly and fairly informed, a title is powered content, it has to keep that stolen title from being re-posted. if you want to own a pawn shop in a cog comes away and takes away a stolen base and then the next week the same bracelet comes in a week later to be sold, you cannot just put it up for sale again so that is all we are asking. once an espn's been informed in a proper and legal way, that something is stolen property, it stops allowing the sale of it. i mean the other side of this coin is that if the same person in a pawn shop brings in multiple stolen items repeatedly, the pawn shop owner has an obligation to stop dealing with that person so if a website is hosted an isp

it authorizes d.b.i. to bring in third party review and review by the structural advisory committee, so the appellant's attorney is we rely on the technical experts and city staff to determine the degree and need of third party review. and the slope act does require site visits and express approval of the structural plan by the fire department, d.p.w. and the planning department. and finally, it requires mandatory denial of the permit if d.b.i. and the committee conclude there is a reasonable likelihood that the proposed structural design would result in unsafe conditions. this is how we are protected to insure that we know now that it's not going to have a significant impact because if there is a reasonable possibility of landslide and unsafe conditions, the permit will not be issued. now, this is the exact purpose of the slope act which was just reviewed by the board with legislation back in 2018. now, the appellant submitted two letters from their own technical consultant yesterday and both raised conc

authorities. some executive agent would have to be given and they should be the one with the experience and the authority and the capability . >> what it boils down to at this point, there is widespread agreement that needs to be reformed and someone needs to be in charge of the reform. the question we have to work through is who is that right entity to be responsible for designing it, implementing it, and maintaining it on an ongoing basis. for us on an internal perspective, this committee is probably not going to be the sole place that will have insight. it's a topic that as you have seen, there is strong bipartisan widespread support for pursuing and this report and the bill that has been filed certainly gives us a baseline on which to work. i hope we have flushed out through this hearing some of the remaining outstanding topics where our options are. come want to thank both of you for being patient with us and contributing today to this hearing. it is one we have been trying to get on for a co
