burgess: mr. speaker, just remind people in this body 10 years ago the democrats were in the majority. indeed, in the 2008 election that occurred 10 years ago, they strengthened that majority. house members, house republican members were so far in the minority as to be irrelevant in all exchanges. there was a 60-vote majority over in the senate. you may recall that's where the affordable care act and dodd-frank and other pieces of legislation that i would have thought would never pass actually did pass in that environment. a question that i hear a lot is, why didn't democrats do something about the dreamer problem when they controlled all the levers of power? it's a valid question. senator durbin had a bill, as you'll recall, in that next session of congress that began in january, 2009, senator durbin had a bill to deal with the dreamer situation. and he worked on it all year. it never came up until december of 2010. now, you'll remember in november of 2010, actually the majority changed in the ho

coming up on bbc news the burgess brothers are back togetherfor england.ter this month. a woman who was sexually abused as a child by her stepfather is challenging a law which means she cannot receive compensation because she lived with her attacker. her stepfather was convicted of eight offences including rape and sexual assault and jailed for 1h years. but under the so—called "same roof" rule, the woman — known for legal reasons as jt — was not eligible for a payout. 0ur legal correspondent clive coleman has been to meet her. just to warn you — some viewers may find this story distressing. i didn't have friends, i didn't go out... from the age of four until she was 16, the childhood of this woman, known for legal reasons as jt, was one of almost unimaginable suffering at the hands of her stepfather. he raped me and he sexually abused me. sexual abuse happened on a daily basis. the rape happened every now and again. my mam used to work at a fish shop, and she did nights. so that's when it would happen. it was the absolute norm. it was every day, it was li

let's bring in michael burgess of texas. i believe you just voted for the goodlatte bill and probably aren't that surprised to learn that it failed. your thoughts. >> that's correct. it wasn't a foregone conclusion that i would vote for it there were things i liked and things i didn't like. the fact that e verify was a big place over the next big that we'll have. i didn't like the addition of a big guest worker program at the last minute. i thought that was a little bit too much. the bottom line is that it didn't have the votes to pass. now, i would tell you i don't think the prospects for tomorrow's bill are any better than i thought the chance was on this bill. that's one of the reasons i voted for it. try to push it up over the top. but it wasn't to be. now we'll have to regroup. what worries me in this bill we'll reject this bill and get something worse down the road. so sometimes you can paint yourself in a corner where something gets done that is counter productive. >> dana: and because you're from texas, you've had a

burgess and ms. brooks. >> thank you, this is a issue that is important and timely to the set -- to the subcommittee. last week there was a discussion on the pandemic preparedness act. that hearing, we heard from witnesses with first-hand experience in combating biological threats to our nation and received input on the draft legislation. currently our witness panel is well known to us and they are all experts. i look forward to hearing from them. >> thank you. in february our subcommittee held a hearing to examine how we combat biological threats. we examined the state of preparedness. it is not a question of if we face a threat, it is once again when we face a threat. we have been reminded by the stories that we heard here today . these types of incidents have already happened in our country and -- in our country. the national stockpile is the repository of vaccines, and supplies used in the event of a attack or outbreak. in june of 2017 there was a report issued and i look forward to hear how we w

>> i'm with burgess on the respect thing. i think something's been lost here.you look at the philadelphia eagles, you're talking about a ball club that stood up for every national anthem this season. they're led by a gentleman by the name of michael jenkins. i think he's one of the greatest black leaders that we have today in america. i think something's been lost here. this is a great opportunity i think for those guys to go to the white house and have a positive conversation about how we can move towards social justice in our country and i think that's been lost. and for me as a former eagle, it's sad. i was really hoping to see that team come together, go to the white house, sit across from our president and have these discussions. president trump right now on the race relations is struggling when it comes to melen y'alls -- millennials and young african americans and people of color. there are so many great things happening in the country right now. you see unemployment numbers and you see the positive momentum we're having economically. we've got to find a

burgess, dr. burgess, go up to the facility in new jersey recently and observe firsthand what happens, what transpires there. my colleague, mr. green and others, have talked about the number of packages that go through the facility versus the number actually inspected. i know we have all had pretty good conversation was dr. scott got leeb, the now administrator of the food and drug administration, and he has done marvelous work with the limited tools that he has to really ramp up their ability to try and stop these shipments of illegal fentanyl. for those that are here in the chamber, you got to understand illegal fentanyl. if you took a saltshaker and put half a dozen grains of salt on and put your finger on it, likely go through your skin and you would pass out and die unless my colleague from texas and put your finger on or tennessee here or the house physician had some they could revive you. it's that potent, dangerous, and deadly. that's what's getting cut into heroin -- by wait you can alway

burgess' contemporaries recognized his commitment, including the commander in chief. when lincoln saw growing pressure for emancipation to encourage peace, he said if the black men staked their lives for us, they must be prompted by the strongest motive, even the promise of freedom. that promise being made must be kept. if it was not kept, lincoln admitted, all recruiting of colored men would cease, and all colored men would instantly desert us. he realized black soldiers fought for freedom above union. black troops acted on ideas of freedom, differed from the freedom of the military service. they fled freedom to preserve freedom. they fled service to preserve freedom. but say they fashioned a political culture not always intent on overthrowing oppression but managing oppression. they invented modes of investment -- enlistment and permitted them to move closer to freedom if not find full liberation, sidestepping the overwhelming violence. they expressed discontent beyond the spectrum of political context. white soldiers relied on a political culture. when the service

. >> dana: greg, i had congressman burgess on the 2:00 show today. >> good for you. >> dana: i'm getting to a point. a texas congressman, he is a doctor. is he a conservative guy. he wanted dakota bills to pass. he is on something called the immigration reform caucus. i said in the caucus do you actually have democrats willing to come to the table on this? he said no. that he has tried talking to them and he can't get anywhere. he does think they just want to be obstructionist. >> gregg: i don't think it's about the kids. it's always going to be about trump. this is about 2016 and it's about 2018 and 2020. it's about elections we know what trump does will never be enough. it will be seen as even left humane as it was before. the liberal opinion is this. if you split up families you are a nazi whether the family is pretend or not you are a nazi. if you keep them together you are worse than a nazi. they actually have no solution. liberals become paralyzed when faced with having to solve a problem. media puts notion before facts so they contribute to it. so now you are having critics of tru
