hill. --terday the house voted to the national defense authorization act, the bill your committee has done for 57 straight years. as you look at your bill versus the senate bill and how they continue to glow -- continue to grow the military and try to easilythe pentagon, how or not easily do you think these negotiations with the senate will go and what are democratic priorities for this process and for this bill? >> i think we are pretty close. the biggest thing is we have a budget agreement earlier this year that gave us the topline numbers, so we are not fighting over that. then there is an issue here and an issue there in terms of where exactly we spend the money, and there are a number of issues that are not in the defense jurisdiction that we will have to negotiate our way through. there is the dangerous -- the endangered species act in there. democratic priorities are to have an efficient and effective pentagon. acquisition reform are things we will be focusing on. we would love to push back on the president's lgbt band, having crews of -- having an inclusive military, unfortunately

the republicans overwhelmingly supported a bill passing i.c.e., mike emanuel is live on capitol hill.ay terry cho of this discussion on the hill among lawmakers. >> that is right, harris, good afternoon to you. nancy pelosi did not care for the resolution. she chose to talk about the separation issue instead. >> this resolution does nothing to separate babies from their mothers, that connection is something beyond material, it is spiritual. it is about to parent and child, mother and child, father and child, and now we are going to rip that apart. >> the vote was 244-35, in support of immigrations and customs immigration for i.c.e., the left liberal base trying to abolish i.c.e., 133 democrats voting present, and protest, and the republicans saying that is weak on their part. >> when you look at the numbers, last year i.c.e. agents, they rescued or identified 518 victims of human trafficking. what if those i.c.e. agents would have voted president instead of rescuing those victims of human trafficking? >> john kennedy trying to bring up a similar resolution in support of i.c.e. in the

bill and housing and senate. i say bipartisan because sexual harassment has a political. i really spent a lot of time on the hill over the last 18 months advocating with members of congress to support this bill. what this bill does is get rid employmention in contracts or give women a choice of whether or not when they're facing harassment, whether or not they want to go to secret arbitration or if they want to go to the open court system, which is your seventh amendment right. not to get so much into weeds, but employment has basically kept the issue of employment harassment silent because if you have one of these clauses in your contract and you are being sexually arrest and you go to report it, you automatically get thrown into a secret chamber of arbitration and no one ever knows what happened and you can never tell anyone. this bill would give women and men the choice of whether or not they want to go public with their choices. here is what happens to the power pendulum. here is how it is with secret arbitration and here it is how it is when you give women a choice. maybe this person will not harass anymore
