columbia house very little police are every 100 people and that would set a huge burden on police has to try to keep only quarter when you have some organized groups that really want to raise civility in globe. as you clearly know there's a lot of money from drug dealing. all economy has got some horrible years your drug dealer business has an amazing get well so those people gain a lot by creating stability and so all those groups are the land. managers that didn't became part of the process so how do you then with a lot of cash they can use leasing out of the great instability of the police and all of us started while there are very few police colbert little bit of protesters so that is a very imbalanced relationship that's what this whole thing and that is a lot of money behind the fortune but i and i have to ask if they're bringing on the ground who are the people that are out there protesting and sometimes it is seen in the united states sometimes you have people that come in and they feel very passion about it sometimes you do see i said the pay protesters there's money behind i

columbia so ably. she deserves a vote in the house of representatives just like every other member of the house of representatives from the 50 states. and the district of columbia deserves two senators right here in the united states congress, and i want to thank president biden for saying if this senate will just get this bill to his desk, he will sign that piece of legislation and make sure the people of the district of columbia are represented as every other citizen in the 50 states is currently represented. all of us come to this floor and we hear our colleagues on both sides of the aisle talking about the importance of democracy overseas. we criticize china rightly when it begins to snuff out the right to vote. in hong kong, we criticize the authoritarian rulers in belarus when they clamp down on freedom. we look around the world and we try to establish a standard for standing up for the principle of democracy. we're not always consistent. we're not always constant in that message, but we make an effort to do that. we need to look in the mirror and make that same effort right here at home. i hear sol of my c

linc kesler, is the director of the university of british columbia's first nations house of learning,ds really on which people we are talking about. i think in indigenous communities, people are, of course it's a shock to hear this kind of news but it is a circumstance which has long been suspected. and to some extent already documented. so in that sense, it is not so much of a surprise. i think for many other people in canada it is shocking because it is still the case that in spite of all of the efforts that have been made to make this history more available to people and more widely understood, it is still not widely enough understood and appreciated. for many people it shocking. of course the details are always shocking. historically, when these schools were operating, i think there was a real attempt to suppress information about them. and so people did not widely know it and that was because it was a policy that they should not know it. the truth and reconciliation commission in the earlier part of this century documented much about the schools and made that information public.

square miles of population over 1 million on a date that the house will bebe debating and voting on legislation that would make the district of columbia the 56 seat and i would notice that dc population is 700,000 and its size is 68 square miles. do think dc should have two senators and a fully voting representative in the house? >> guest: i think this is another ploy byt: the democratso bypass the constitution. it is pretty clear in article one, section eight of the constitution and then again in the 23rd amendment that the state of the capital will not be separate state and in order to properly do this if they really wanted to properly do this then they should go through and propose to amend the constitution and there is a process again provided for that would allow them to do so so they really want to make another state out of washington dc and change the seeds of the nation's capital then go through the proper procedure and let's do it that way. >> marie, mississippi, line for democrats. >> caller: good morning. i wanted to ask the representative based on the fact that he is a part of the veteran affairs on the subject of going ba

columbia as a state. of course, on the other side, the house gop caucus is purging the last of its members who acknowledge reality because that reality requires republicans to admit that they cannot continue to campaign on a big lie. but regardless of what comes out of congress, the senate is where the future is either stalled or starting. and it is there that mitch mcconnell and senate republicans have committed to inertia if it means denying president biden a victory. of course, it doesn't help that moderate democrats like west virginia senator joe manchin refuse to take their best weapon away, the filibuster. but what should not escape anyone watching is that you are now seeing nearly every state level gop trying to find its rudder after last year and plotting their future at black and brown voters joining me now, congressman hakeem jeffries, democrat of new york, member of the judiciary committee and chairman of the house democratic caucus. you know, congressman, as i said at the top, house democrats have introduced or passed a slew of bills that stand to have real corrective impact on voting rights,

house overlooking the city that he designed. this is the map of the permanent system of highways for the district of columbia. it was dated 1914. you will notice that the arlington reservation is right here -- fort meyer is right here. one of the items not on the inventory, but we knew was here, is a list of confederate dead. people ask me why is this list included? 1915 was the 50th anniversary of the civil war. and you had these civil war union and confederate veterans reconciling. there was a big push to reconcile between the north and the south, and arlington was a centerpiece of the reconciliation. the public buildings act of the 1950's added a confederate, fred beale. he placed the list of confederate dead as the union veterans placed their program. another thing i point out is that, if you look at the original drawings, there was a statue planned. but all of that went by the wayside in november of 1920. just months after this building was dedicated, the british and french interred their soldiers from world war i. and the american people read about the ceremonies in london and paris. in particular, ther

a couple of questions, can you confirm that the white house has seen changes to legislation that would grant statehood to the district of columbia well, we have issued a statement, administration policy, as you know, strongly backing the bill. and our view is that admitting d.c. as a state is well within congress' power and that the arguments to the contrary are faulty. we also think there are ways to allay the concerns that have been raised and that's why we're working with congress to make the bill as strong as possible, as would be the case in nearly any negotiation or about any piece of legislation. >> reporter: can you confirm that those are the changes that you are seeking? >> i'm not going to get into more details of it other than we certainly would support d.c. statehood and strongly back the bill. >> reporter: on infrastructure, can you -- you've talked a lot about progress by memorial day. can you define what progress specifically is? is it a deal in principle with senate republicans? is it passing surface transportation bills out of committees? or what is it, what is progress to you? >> well, i think, as i was saying

columbia university, professor of history, also author of the book "crash." thank you for joining us. let's start with in your view come of this moment where the democrats control the white housee senate, the house, albeit narrowly. we are coming out of a big economic hole. is this the moment to strike from a taxation perspective and try to use the tax code to address long-standing inequality? adam: i think it probably is. i don't think there will be many progressives in the u.s. or anywhere else, because this is a global agenda, the corporate taxation, that will object to what the biden administration is doing. they are pushing up tax rates on tax capital gains. they are hitting the top, 91% of american society, is one third of 1% that is going to be hit hard by this. they are pushing for a global tour -- global corporate tax rate of 21%. in the u.s., 28%. so yes, this is the agenda to go with. it is double-edged. these are simultaneously progressive tax increases. and i think that it has political logic in the sense that these enable them to squeeze their spending programs past the obvious objectives in congress as well. romaine: i am curious, we know that intentions, when i

house to follow the example of states that enacted pregnancy accommodation laws. however, the majority of these laws include important protections for religious organizations. at least 15 states and the district of columbia have pregnancy discrimination or pregnancy accommodation laws that include a religious organization protection similar to section 702 of the civil rights act. the states include arkansas, hawaii, iowa, maine, nebraska, new jersey, new york, ohio, oklahoma, south carolina, tennessee, texas, utah, wisconsin, and wyoming. kentucky's pregnancy accommodation law, which was highlighted by a democrat-invited witness at a hearing on the pregnant workers fairness act, as a successful workable solution includes a limited religious organization protection, very similar to section 702 of the civil rights act. unfortunately, the bill before us today omits this needed provision. if we are to follow the example of these states and recommendations from congressional testimony, then a provision protecting religious organizations should be added to h.r. 1065. that, mr. speaker -- with that, mr. speaker, i reserve the balance of my time. the speaker pro tempore: the gentlewoman from north carolina reser

columbia. closing that divide has been a priority of mine since my first days in the house of representatives. today's legislation will boost r&d at emerging institutions so that no region goes unutilized in our efforts to compete with china. mr. president, i regret that this bill was put through with a rushed process. our initial markup in committee was scheduled just one day after the bill was dropped. that markup got postponed. two weeks later, we had a day-long markup where we dealt with more than 250 committee amendments. after incorporating over 100 of those amendments, the bill passed by a vote of 24-4. let me repeat that, mr. president. the bill passed the commerce committee by a vote of 24 yeses, and only 24 noes. a few days later, the bill reached the senate floor where more than 500 amendments have been filed. clearly there is a desire to legislate in this body and on this legislation given sufficient time and opportunity. this bill should put to rest any discussion of changing the filibuster. the senate is perfectly capable of functioning if the majority allows it to function, and
