and in the 1900 campaign, i believe suffrage for women would have passed had it not been for bobby scott'-- harvey scott's editorials, because if you tabulate the number of votes cast primarily in the county, it was really what sunk the passage of suffrage that year. here is a letter, abigail is writing to her son clyde, and so this is the 1900 campaign and they were waiting for the returns come in and she says, " after five days of anxious waiting for returns, during which the oregonian and your mad uncle have subjected the decent women of oregon to every form of insult, word came to me with the news that the returns showed 45% of the vote to be in the affirmative. with the four counties we depend upon to be heard from." she says, "i was sick until i saw the returns. now i shall set the coward up." and she is referring to her brother. one of the things about passing suffrage and abigail's involvement was the change that came about in the way that measures could be presented to the citizens, to the sentencing -- citizenry for voting. initially when abigail started on her campaign work, s

we are thrilled as well to have with us today congressman bobby scott and congresswoman virginia foxx who care so deeply about this effort. thank you.

so i would like to introduce bobby scott from education workforce. >> thank you. thank you leader pelosi. i want to thank the doctors hospitals health advocates. following the debate and hearing their voices, it was an interesting debate because really did you hear anyone try to talk about the provisions of their bill. you heard complaints about the affordable care act but you heard nothing about how the bill was either better or worse than the affordable care act when the public, the doctors, the hospitals, advocates noted that are just about every count their 22 million people fewer insured, others who pay insuranceet less, policies would cover smaller percentages of the actual bills, there were no essential benefits. return where they could cut you off after they had spent a certain amount. you would pay more coming get less. 22 million fewer people injured. the public noticed. their voices were heard. my colleague from new york, also others have pointed out this may not be the end. the house bill was withdrawn and a few days later came back and was passed. so

we should do everything we can to pass this excellent piece of legislation that ranking member bobby scott has authored in this body. and mr. scott and i have been -- as well as many others -- have been all over this country as well as in d.c. talking to workers, explaining how they haven't seen a raise, haven't seen their pay go up and they're serious, mr. speaker, about being part of this economy too. pass this minimum wage increase. give america a raise. thank you. the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman from massachusetts reserves his time. the gentleman from georgia. mr. collins: reserve. the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman reserves. the gentleman from massachusetts. mr. mcgovern: and mr. speaker, the reason why we are trying to bring this to the floor by way of defeating the previous question is because the republican majority in this house basically locked everything down so we can't get important bills to the floor. we can't even get amendments to the underlying bill we are debating here today. it's really unfortunate and sad for this institution. mr. speaker, i yield three minut

like to thank the house education work force committee chairwoman virginia foxx and ranking member bobby scott for their support in bringing this bill to the floor. want to thank the democratic lead, representative raja krystal griner, and my colleague and c.t. caucus co-chair jim langevin. mcmorris hank cathy rodgers, leader mccarthy and steve scalise, who remains in awful our prayers for a full recovery. this legislation aims to restore wrungs from the ladders of opportunity because all americans deserve a good paying family-sustaining job. one of the biggest challenges in career and technical education is the stigma and bias against it. we've seen wrong-headed claims that students involved in the trades lack ambition. these misplaced assumptions are slowly subsiding, but not soon enough. we've also seen students push down the college for all pathway that just doesn't work for some students. c.t.e., or skills-based education, has established itself a path that many high-achieving students pursue in industry certifications and hands on skills they can use right out of high schools and the ski

last year, we had two members of congress, john conyers from michigan and we had bobby scott from virginia commissioned a study. it was released may 17th, 2016. it identified that we had a number of schools, nearly 3/4 of the schools that african-americans attend are either predominantly african-american or student of color or predominantly free reduced priced lunch and predominantly underresourced. those challenges that still exist. one part of the report that we didn't sfendpend a lot of time the number of majority or minority, a number are nonwhite now. there are majority/minority schools that won blue ribbons or in fact won gold medals because of their academic achievement. high schools that are predominantly low income that are doing well academically. what we need to do is to look at the schools that exist. what are they doing is it resources? educators? family involvement? is it the curriculum? is it expectations? all the things we knew 50 years ago make sense? but we know how to make sure it makes sense across the board. to say that we have schools that are segregated and not doing

we defeat the previous question, i'll offer an amendment to the rule to bring up representative bobby scott's rebuild america's school act, h.r. 2475, which i'm also a proud co-sponsor. mr. scott's legislation would invest $100 billion in the physical and infrastructure and create schools the infrastructure we need for the 21st century. i ask unanimous consent to insert the text of my amendment in the record along with extraneous material immediately prior to the moat on the previous question. the speaker pro tempore: without objection. mr. polis: to discuss our proposal, i would like to yield four minutes to the gentleman from virginia, the distinguished ranking member of the education and work force committee, mr. scott. the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman from virginia is recognized for four minutes. mr. scott: i want to thank the gentleman from colorado for plow posing this amendment -- for proposing this amendment. the rebuild america school act would help ensure each of our nation's 50 million public school students, taught by three teachers, would have access to safe, healthy, and h
