it was introduced by republican congressman jim sensenbrenner and democrat bobby scott. on tuesday, obama recognized the bi-partisan effort. >> this is a cause that is bringing people in both houses of congress together. it has created some unlikely bedfellows. you've got van jones and newt gingrich. you've got americans for tax reform and the aclu. you've got the naacp and the koch brothers. [applause] no, you have to give them credit. you have to call it like you see it. amy: well, for more, we are joined by three guests who got a shout-out from president obama there and are at the center of this push to make the criminal justice system more fair. in boston, van jones is president and cofounder of #cut50, a national bi-partisan initiative reduce the u.s.'s incarcerated population by 50% over the next 10 years. he was president barack obama's green jobs adviser in 2009 and founded green for all. he is also a cnn political commentator. in wichita, kansas, we are joined by one of those unlikely bedfellows to whom obama referred. mark holden is senior vice president and ge

ii know there are competing proposals that have been introduced by democrats, eddie murray and bobby scotte introduced a $12 minimum wage proposal that has automatic increases tied to the cost of living. it will be important that we set a national minimum and then get out of the way of cities and states who believe they can and should go higher. the cost of living is different in various parts of the country. i supported what new york did, la did, what other cities are doing, and i believe they should be experimenting with raising income and creating more opportunity, but they're should be a higher federal level. i we will bei will be supporting the effort to do that at the congress. >> is it the right amount? >> patty murray is one of the most effective legislators in the senate bar none. whatever she advocates i pay a lot of attention to because she knows how to get it through the congress and not just do it for the sake of having a higher number but get behind a proposal that has a chance of succeeding. i have seen her over the years be able to do just that. [inaudible question] >> well

two of the co-sponsors bobby scott and doug collins and also jessica jackson sloan pushing for the passageream core as national director. so glad to have you all with us today. >> thank you. >> congressman scott help us understand how this bill reduces the prison population to start with it. >> we looked at the task force as a fact we lock up so many people in america, many low level nonviolent offenders and recent studies said we're adding to crime we have so many people with felony records, adding to crime. what this does is an evidence-based approach to crime policy and make sure that one of the main factors is make sure the punishment fits the crime. by taking a comprehensive evidence-based approach and getting away from the slogans and sound bites we found a number of initiatives that have been studied and done in states so we know we have state-based experience that will reduce crime and save money. and that's why you have been able to get so much support. >> congressman collins, it's not often you have lawmakers from the opposite side of the political spectrum coming together, espec

and i think christie named bobby jindal and scott walker of wisconsin. wonder if you think the national state ignores state feelings of their governor when electing a november nominee. >> if surprised for the most bo bodacious spin of the week that would be it. they want to fool the rest of the country to keep me as governor. like how can we miss you if you won't go away. so say that with a straight face, i think in this particular set right here really just shows he's untethered to reality. the star ledger when he ran did something you rarely see. they ran a piece saying this man lies. they used the word "lie." went through it step by step by step. and everything he said during bridgegate. now demanding an apology from the media when there are still investigations under way in the port authority business and the pay to play stuff. and earlier you said he was in a bubble. he's not in a bubble. he's in bizarre-o planet. and the whole deal used to be he could work with democrats. and he was republican but practical. and has thrown that all out the window b

if you look at the other governors, bobby jindal, chris christie, scott walker, they are in their statesvisive figures. you can travel around the state and find a democrat and find democrats who feel good about their governors. not a lot. even if they did not vote for him, governor kasey kahne has warm feelings from the democrats. i think he will do well in this race. john: 60% approval rating. hard to top that. mark: here is him talking about his record. >> a lot of hopelessness, here. particularly among the poor and minorities. people said perhaps ohio's days were behind them. but i said we would get this budget balanced and cut taxes. tax cuts of $5 billion, the largest in the country. mark: when governors run, we talk about can we sell their states miracle. is there an economic miracle that you think he can sell to republican voters? john: the ohio economic story, there is a lot of credit to go around. some of it belongs to the obama administration and the auto bailout. but if you compare it, as you did, to the state of louisiana the state of wisconsin, the state of new jersey, compa

with that, i will now yield to ranking member bobby scott for his opening remarks. >> thank you, chairman clyne. welcome, secretary burwell. thank you for being with us today. look forward to your testimony. today we will hear about the president's fiscal year 2016 budget proposal and budget priorities. the budget was released months ago. i'm pleased to see the word "priority" is accused in the title of today's hearing. budgeting requires making tough choices. budget is a reflection of priorities. as legislators we decide what our priorities are and how best to invest in our country. it was reflective of many important priorities, such as protecting access to health care insurance for all americans, giving all children a chance to succeed, and reducing in equality around the country 37. in many areas i believe we made great progress on these priorities. the passage of the affordable care act has given millions of americans access to health coverage, some for the first time in their lives. aca has helped slow the growth in health care costs closed the doughnut hole for seniors, and improve

is it a, john kasich bobby jindal, scott walker or jim gilmore? >> jim was your friend. kasich was talking about having to try and get on the debate stage. i don't remember if the he announced. i'll try d. >> i checked. >> jim gilmore former governor of virginia he's in he told the richmond times dispatch he is running. he will be i think the 17th major candidate to announce when he announces. >> your friend and mine jim gilmore. >> that was such a guess. very exciting. all right. last question. this is for all of the marbles. on last night's show after frenzied speculation whether pope francis would drink a particular beverage we were able to confirm that the pope did did imbibe. what controversial beverage did the pope drink in south america? was it coconut milk cokea, cocoa, or for cocoa loco. >> it's b, him and jp the second both. >> right. steevg, can you prove it to us? >> let's check last night's segment. >> well now we know. the supreme pontiff we can now report drank some coca leaf tea. >> jacob is right. >> you make this happen did he win? >> look out bananas.

bobby scott's district. surrounding districts all five neighboring republican districts, are pretty safely republican. democrats in the state believe that if black voters were evenly distributed across, democrats would have a chance at one or two more districts in the state. republicans claim this was a partisan gerrymandering effort. in essence, they are saying, we did not draw this map motivated by race and we drew it motivated by our own partisan interests basically admitting to the partisan plan. the judge panel in virginia said this was racially motivated. you need to go back and draw a new map. in virginia, there is a republican legislator in the moment. this could place the court in an awkward position of having to draw a new map, which is not unprecedented. we have seen plenty of courts from maps over the years but it is not a job that the courts we like to do. host: what constitutional mandate does the legislature have? is it based on population? guest: yes. this is well-established in court decisio

bobby jindal. chris christie and scott walker and kasich, his people say they welcome the contrast. mark: the thing about walker is he is so confident. i don't think i have met a candidate as early confident, interviewed his lieutenant governor, he has never shown doubt. that is the message the republicans will like. no doubt, against hillary clinton, it is a positive trait. mark: al: hillary clinton gave an address at the new school in manhattan, calling for tougher regulations on banks and higher wages for workers. she took shots at her republican rivals, jeb bush, marco rubio, and the man of the hour, scott walker. >> you may have heard governor bush say last week that last -- that americans need to work longer hours. well, he must not have met very many american workers. a don't need a lecture, they need a raise. we hear republican candidates talk about tax reform. but take a good look at their plans. senator rubio's would cut taxes for households making around $3 million per year by almost $240,000 which is way more than three times the earnings of a typical family. republican

i really appreciate the work that ranking member bobby scott put into the house democratic substitute. i am looking forward to coming together with him as well as chairman klein in a conference, and i truly hope that house republicans will be ready to join rank member bobby scott and other house and senate democrats, senate republicans and the administration as we work to get this done in a way that works for all students and families and i am looking forward to continuing that work here today in the senate. again, i truly want to thank my colleague, the senior senator from tennessee for working with me on our bipartisan bill, and i really appreciate chairman alexander's choorption inalexander's cooperation in working in a bipartisan way in this process. i join him in encourage our colleagues to file their amendments so we can continue making progress on this important piece of legislation. mr. president, our bipartisan bill the every child achieves act, is a good step in the right direction to fix no child left behind. it gives our states more flexibility while also including federal

is it a, john kasich b, bobby jindal, c, scott walk wither or d jim gilmore?if he was already in or not. i know kasich was talking about having to try to get on the debate stage but i don't remember if he's announced yet or. no i'll try d and go with jim gilmore and see. >> steve, jim gilmore. >> i checked the segment. >> jim gilmore, former governor of virginia told the dispatch times he is running. he will be i think the 17th major candidate to announce when he announces. >> correct answer your friend and mine jim gilmore. >> such a guess, very exciting. >> yeah. >> last question for all the marbles. on last night' show after frenzied speculation about whether or not pope francis would visit a particular beverage visiting south america we were able to confirm he did invibe. what controversial beverage did the pope drink in south america, coke it in mill pacific, coca cocoa or for cocoa loco. >> it is b him and j.p. the second both. >> can you prove it to us. >> let's check the segment. >> well with now we know. the supreme pontiff, we can now report drank so

i agree that is a must and i know that i will continue to work hard alongside our rank member bobby scott from the house and the administration to make accountability and resource a priority in conference. the only way forward is for strong bipartisan work we've seen in the senate to continue in that process. now, i will say that unfortunately so far house republicans chose a partisan approach to reauthorize this bill. their bill doesn't represent one end and ashes ours represents another where we have to meet in the middle. their bill really represents an unacceptable partisan approach and path and our represents a carefully negotiated compromise with just a few important steps to go. i would hope in the conference, the house republicans will be ready to join a house and senate democrats, senate republicans the administration as we help to get this done in a way that works for all of our students and families. by working together, i am confident we can get this bill over the finish line and fix this broken law for our teachers and in my home state and across the country and help make sur

we have scott walker louisiana governor bobby jindel ohio governor john kasich and from new jersey governor chris christie and chris christie is the one who could be in trouble as lawmakers introduce a bill requiring him, and other future garden state governors to resign from office if they seek the presidency. several states have limited to run design laws but no others like this new jersey measure. let's get reaction from two men who worked with governor. karl rove and joe trippi are here. both are fox news contributors. what do you think about this joe? politics or is it fair? >> it is not fair. whether it is politics or not, that is certainly what it is going to look like. look new jersey wants to do this that is fine but they should not change the rules in the middle of an election. this law wasn't in place when he decided to run and they should not change the rules in the middle of it. if this was about future governors, whether i like the law or not, i think it is not political. but this clearly is aimed i think at politics. the fact is christie is probably going to veto it if it pas

on this comment, you had the field from scott walker to chris christie bobby jindal, you name. that tells you the republican party is desperate to get him out. the republican party believes he's nothing but a problem. they'd love -- i've talked to plenty of dmans are not comfortable -- campaigns that are not comfortable being a debate stage with trump, fearing it's going to turn into a circus. i think this is the tipping point moment where the republican party collectively continues to simply try to drive trump out of the party. >> i also want to talk about the shootings in tennessee. we learned yesterday that a fifth service member died from the shootings at the two military support centers in chattanooga. we're also finding out more details about the gunman. does his background suggest that he was inspired by global terror groups like isis? >> that's the question that intelligence officials and the fbi still do not have an interior z for. they don't have any -- have an answer for. they don't have any information but are investigating a text sent hours before the rampage. that

considered by congress bipartisan support from republicans representatives sensenbrenner, representative bobby scotta progressive democrat, speaker boehner came on board yesterday. so this is going to make a big difference because it is going to reduce the number of people who were admitted to present by getting rid of some of these harsh mandatory minimum sentence is going to provide some services for people once they are lockstep some incentives to have them go to high school to high school or at least complete their ged and get the kinds of hope here that they need so that they will be returned as contributing members of society rather than as criminals. now, look at what happens when folks get lots of timeout after being locked out. a lot of jurisdictions get proverbial subway tokens, pat on the back, good luck. guess what a year and a half later 60% are right back in prison. we have got to stop that vicious cycle. i am so happy that at last again republicans and democrats, this is an issue of all things bringing folks together. >> host: back to the sentencing project statistics from 1925 throug

education act and encourage my colleagues to adopt the democratic substitute offered by ranking member bobby scott. . let me start by reading a quote that truly strikes me as telling from where we have come from and where we find ourselves today. on may 22, 1964, at the university of michigan, president lyndon baines johnson remarked, in many places classrooms are overcrowded and curricula are outdated. most of our qualified teachers are underpaid. and many of our paid teachers are underqualified. so we must give every child a place to sit and a teacher to learn from. poverty is not a bar for learning. and learning must often escape from poverty. president johnson went on to say but more classrooms and more teachers are just not enough. we must seek an educational system which grows in excellence as it grows in size. this means better training for our teachers. it means preparing our youth to enjoy their hours of leisure as well as their hours of leab. it means exploring new techniques of teaching. to find new ways to stimulate the love of learning and the capacity for creation. let's just take a

an interesting generational divide where you have a bunch of candidates in their 40's, rubio scott walker, bobby jindal, you have these very, very young candidates that look different from the traditional person the republicans nominate. jindal, you have these very, very young candidates that look different from the traditional person the republicans nominate. jeb bush looks like the typical got a nominate, but one thing that barack obama showed things -- people like rubio and walker and ted cruz is that you do not have to wait your turn. even if you have only been in the senate for less than a full term and you think you want to be president, you can go for it. that is the lesson they took from barack obama, and now you are seeing this wave of younger republican candidates in thing i do not have to wait even if i don't have many accomplishments this because, even if i'm still in my 40's, i can go for it. all but one of those people will be unsuccessful, but one of those different republicans may end up winning. host: lets you from johnny in oklahoma. democrat line, good morning. caller: good mo
