house democrats becerra, kleberg, van hollen. a circle. majority of this 12-member super committee, seven out of 12, must vote yes on the super- committee bill by november 23rd, this coming wednesday! so it can reach the full congress for a final vote. but even if congress fails to pass the bill, get this, it makes no difference because an automatic trigger will will go effect. that means if congress votes no, the national debt will still be reduced to automatic cuts worth $1.2 trillion. half of those cuts would come from defense, half from domestic programs, including medicare. many believincluding medicare. many believe the super- committee will not reach its thanksgiving eve deadline. why? taxes. democrats don't want to deal that doesn't include tax increases. they want to boost government revenues. republicans don't want a deal that includes tax increases. they argue that corporate taxes suck capital away from businesses that would otherwise hire new workers. question, how much has the national debt risen since president obama took off

becerra. >> i'd like to begin by acknowledging our cochairs, senator murray and congressman hensarling as well as all my colleagues for their acceptance for their challenge to serve the american people in this difficult task. we face a defining challenge. will we embrace this opportunity to lead and put our economy back on track? or will we let the cynics and naysayers carry the day. we should start this process without preconditions or limitations. it is precisely because of its difficult nature that we need to step up and not cower from the challenge before us. i'm confident each one of my colleagues would agree that we must live and breathe believing that failure is not an option. we can prove to the american people that their country, their representative democracy is still alive and well. we can do that by simply listening to them. they have been telling us time and time again to put on the same uniform and work not as democrats and republicans but as americans to treat everyone on the te

martha: you know, congressman schuler, the word is that congressman becerra and congressman clyburn havetepped away from this process. two of the super-committees, both democrats. have you heard that? what was the deal breaker for them and can anything get done if they're not in it? >> i have not heard that but i hope, at this point in time our country needs everyone engaged regardless of their political perspective, they need to drop the political jargon. they need to step up to the plate and say, hey, time for the american people. the whole world is watching. we need compromise. we need to make sure we can get confidence back in the markets as the senator has spoken about. once we do that, jobs will come back. we'll be able to move our country forward. martha: excuse me for interrupting, congressman. what we have to talk about spending cuts. at least that has to be half of the ballgame. seems listening to senator jim demint the other day we're not talking about any real cuts. even if you look at pat toomey's proposal. everyone gives them credit for trying to be negotiator on the super-

for the calendar situation we're looking at we go the update from super-committee democrat javier becerra. >> in terms of time, i don't think there is any doubt that the clock is ticking and if we don't, if we don't move fairly soon, we're not going to get to take a good shot at the basket to beat the buzzer and i believe that, this could be a magical week. >> reporter: basketball reference there. on the republican side we heard republican leader in the senate mitch mcconnell talk about finding common ground. take a listen to this. >> this is how divided government works through real cooperation and a search for common ground and solutions. this is what republicans on the joint committee have been trying to do for the past several weeks. it is what house republicans have been doing all year. >> reporter: of course finding that common ground has been elusive so far but everybody recognizes the calendar, the clock are winding down, jon. jon: despite that there is some expression of cautious optimism i guess you'd call it from a key member of the administration. tell us about that. >> report

all of these folks, if i've not -- becerra. all of these folks, if i've not left out anyone, have talked about make it in america, but more importantly, we are not broke. we can insist on letting our small businesses and our manufacturers get a leg up and we stop giving giveaways to those who are the beneficiaries of the bush tax cuts and begin some new concepts in funding. i think we can make it. i want to close by simply saying to my friends in the private sector, you complain when we talk about pass the jobs bill. i frankly think it's a commonsense approach. pay a little tax relief, hiring the chronically unemployed, putting to work teachers so that class sizes can go down, educating your next work force, firefighters, police, etc. it is well documented that our large companies have a very flush cash flow. it is well documented that our major banks are multinational banks are well undowed with resources. my plea is that all of us become patriots, not party belongers, not card carrying, sign wavers as it relates to what party

work to ensure that it is and those are our assistant leader jim clyburn, vice chair of the caucus, becerra, and our budget chair, chris van hollen. but, you know, we've said over and over again that this plan needs to include further extension of unemployment benefits. with something that has been demonstrated over and over again is a guaranteed stimulus for the recession that we're not yet out of. but it also of course provides a needed bring until we can get this congress to -- bridge until we can get this congress to create jobs again. it's been over 300 days and we still have yet to see the republican leadership produce and enact a jobs agenda for this country. something that we all know is so badly needed. and just to talk about where we are, in the third quarter of 2011, 31.8% of 14 million americans who are out of work have been so for more than a year. that amounts to 4.4 million people. older workers are more likely to remain out of work for a year or longer. 43% of unemployed workers older than 55 have been out of work for at least a year. although those with more education are l
