is california substantially different from texas? >> no. we can talk about what the trend is with the physician trend various the hospital trend -- versus the hospital trend, and the pharmaceutical -- >> thank you. the hospital and pharmaceutical trend is a much more significant driver. if you took all reimbursement off the table, you'd have a one-time savings of anywhere between 5-18%. that's not the biggest driver in your, in your book of business, i suspect. >> we think the physician trend is around 6% in california. the hospital trend is 10 and the pharmacy trend is 13. >> and, of course, all of the expenditures do flow through generally the physician, that is the physician has a right to write the scrip, so although they're a very small part of the actual cash outlay, they do control -- they tend to be a driver or a con trick to have of costs. i've always wondered why we try to ratchet down physician payment, doctors are normal people in that if you say we're going to ramp dhet it down, we try to do more to catch up. therefore, we see

who raised taxes in california.ised them three times as president. but however, he cut the top rates from 70 to 28%. and he stood up to the soviets, and he won the cold war. what reagan has going for him, chris, is he was an astounding success, the most successful i think almost we've ever had. >> here's another policy position from the failed rnc resolution. we support legal immigration by opposing amnesty. ronald reagan did sign some back in the '80s, which was supposed to solve the problem by allowing for legalization, et cetera. but it didn't -- >> i was in the white house. >> it didn't really get into effect very well. >> it was a complex bill, that simpson could stay but mizoli's got to go back. but let me say this. we signed that bill -- >> what does that mean? >> a funny line by mark russell. we signed that bill and we did it not realizing how many would be amnestied and believing that they would stop illegal immigration, that we had solved the problem. the truth was we had not solved the problem. and by 199

care costs in california. for example -- >> i don't want to know all the issues, you said if we had a medical malpractice system that would be one way to hold down costs. california has one and hasn't been sufficient to hold down costs to keep you from raising premiums. you asked for a 25% increase. you said, raising our premium was not something we wanted to do, so your senior executives at wellpoint determined that a rate increase averaging approximately 25% was necessary, is that right? >> that's correct. >> now, i would like to ask you about a document produced from your internal files at wellpoint. on october 24, 2009, mr. shane, senior wellpoint ack you area, e mailed the head of wellpoint's individual market division and let me put that up. wellpoint executive must reach agreement on a filing strategy quickly, specifically in the area of do we file with a cushion aloug for negotiations or file at a lower level that does not allow for negotiations. this email says that you were considering filing a rate

in fact, since my california colleague, ms. has been speaker of the house, we have gone through now a three-year period. and that three-year period of time save the appropriations process, we have had a grand total of one, one bill considered under an open rule. so again this is not a partisan issue. this has to do with the american people having their voices heard in this institution. so while we are supportive of the underlying legislation, this change is absolutely outrageous. so i urge my colleagues to vote no on this rule so that we can bring back some kind of positive recognition of what the framers of our constitution wanted and that is a viable committee structure. with that i yield back the balance of my time. the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman yields back the balance of his time. all members are reminded that remarks are to be directed to the chair. the gentlewoman from maine is recognized. ms. pingree: thank you very much, mr. chair. i do appreciate the clarification on the issue of a change. i would just clarify

the problems in california haven't led to a market sell-off. so i think in some sense we are in a correction that was due. we had an amazing run-up from march through october. we had a flat line for the past three months, so we're in a phase where there's been selling pressure building up, and, yes, there's a lot of lingering global worry. it's not like people who freaked out in 2008 into 2009 suddenly became on opty mists or forward looking. there's a pool of worry to tap into with sufficient news to generate it. but that doesn't mean in my view that what we're facing is a world where we're going to have the next leg down. i think the real problem is too many people are conflating the u.s. economy with u.s. equities, and to me these should continue to be september discussions. 50% are global and they're not global in greece, portugal, and spain. >> but i want to ask you on that point. it's a good point, an important point. let me clarify. you would buy this dip in the market. >> yeah. and i would buy this dip even while skeptical of the u.s. e

the gentleman from california. mr.reier: thank you, mr. speaker. let me first express my appreciation to my friend from fort lauderdale, a member of both the rules committee and having been a distinguished member of the select committee on intelligence, and i yield myself such time as i may consume and i ask unanimous consent to revise and extend my remarks. the speaker pro tempore: without objection. mr. dreier: mr. speaker, last christmas day, as we all know, when a passenger boarded northwest airlines flight number 253 headed for the detroit metro airport, the issue of national security once again came to the forefront, to really the top of the agenda for everyone in our country. it's, of course, never far from our minds but recent high-profile plots have been thwarted. at fort hood and in detroit, we know the threat of americans remains and remains a very real threat to us. what was so shocking about the attempted attack on christmas day was not that al qaeda remains a threat, we all know this, but was the revelati

and it reflected the trend that we're experiencing in california. so it was not, there was not a cushion in the rate. >> it's hard to understand these words differently, because the words say a cushion allows for negotiation. you decided you needed 25% but it sounds like you were willing to go to 20%. there was a presentation prepared for your board of directors, the presentation outlined wellpoint strategic plan individual line of business for 2010. let me put that slide up on the board. this slide is titled key assumption individual pricing. it distinguishes between your rate ask and the actual rate increase you are assuming for 2010. and according to this slide, the 2010 rate ask is listed as 25 percent to 26%, but the assumed 2010 rate increase is just 20%. this seems to say that you're asking for 25% increase but expected to see that lowered to 20 percent to negotiations. that sounds like padding. how did you respond? >> i will respond to that since my team is responsible for the rate filings. it's important to note this was prepared before the

he ends up as assistant corporation or city attorney for the surgery of whittier, california. and that appears to be as far as who's going to until world war ii, when he led john f. kennedy and lyndon baines johnson was in the navy. he comes out in 1946 as a great year for veterans running for office, young, ambitious, intelligent. so he runs in 1946. he is elected to the congress and the very best campaign and stumbles into what industry now knows as the alger hiss case. he was secretary of state, very promising cello in the new deal. and in 1948 another fellow named winston chambers testifies before the house un-american activities council, that i've only with alger hiss a communist, but that he was an espionage agent for joe stalin, soviet overmatch. most people think this is far-fetched, it can't be. richard nixon at first is one of them. and after listen to a little bit more of alger hiss, things don't add up. his is ultimately convicted of perjury. nixon goes on to the united states senate in 1950 and in 1952 the vice presidency of the united states. he's 39 years old he

meanwhile, parts of northern california and oregon were shaken today by a magnitude 5.9 earthquake. it was centered offshore about 35 miles northwest of petrollia, california, at a depth of about seven miles. no damage or injuries reported. by comparison, the quake that devastated haiti last month was about 30 times more powerful. today, 10 americans who went to haiti after the quake were charged with kidnapping for trying to take 33 haitian children out of the country without the proper documents. each could face as much as 15 years in prison if convicted. bill whitaker is in port-au-prince. >> reporter: arriving for their court hearing this morning, the 10 americans appeared optimistic, their bags packed and ready to go. do you think you're going home? >> are you going to be released? >> reporter: but after two hours before the judge, the group, surrounded by police, pushed its way through a crush of cameras back to waiting vehicles and back to jail. >> they were charged with felony kidnapping of minors, and criminal associations, said their haitian attorney. the 10 baptists most

the gentleman from california. mr. dreier: mr. speaker, at this time i'd like to yield 30 seconds to my friend from gold river, california, mr. lungren. mr. lungren: i come over and respond to what was just said, when he said the previously administration, everything goes. read the memo that came out of the justice department, looking at the actions of the justice department, it suggests that anything did not go. to say that now is to besmerch the reputation of good men and women who were both career and political to save us from the threat of terrorists since 9/11. and to come here and say anything goes is a continuation of besmerching the reputation of good men and women and it ought not to stand. look at the facts, look at those that reviewed the analysis. you'll see that's not the case. the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman from california. the gentleman from, mr. cardoza. mr. cardoza: i yield to the chairman such time as he may consume. the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman from texas is recognized. mr. reyes: to respond to

but california isn't an isolated case. without the contributions that have come from the federal stimulus package the total state support for higher education across the country would have dropped 3.5% this year and 6.8% over the last two years. of course there is variation among states. some states showed increases, including small-population states like montana and north dakota, but also larger states like texas. eleven states have significant one-year declines. that is more than 5%, even when we include the stimulus from the better government. these states like california, michigan, ohio, washington, and virginia, all home to celebrated public research universities. at uc-berkeley alone research has led to almost 2,000 inventions, and its alumni have founded over 250 companies. the university of michigan has licensed close to 50 start-up companies and just the last five years. my friend, jim dudistat, the former president of the university of michigan has said funding public universities have gone from being a state-sup
