frankly i know that's possible on my committee comm, the appropriations committee. i think that's something members are genuinely looking for, an opportunity to debate priorities and discuss, but also to come together when there's common ground. i know there'll be some controversy about it today, there will be people who would like to have done things differently, frank g -- frankly i suspect every member would like to do things differently. but we are in a period of divided government. we do operate in a system of checks and balances. it has been an exceptionally polarizing political environment. with all those challenges, the speaker, the majority leader, the president and the respected minority leaders in both chambers can find common ground and accomplish the things that need to be accomplished is something we ought to laud, not disparage. i look forward to working with my friend. i look forward hopefully to this becoming the foundation for a much more productive 2016 where we can do something we haven't done in a long time and operate under regular order throug

i can only call her the liberal comme commentator. the law was passed without the house andlosi senate going to conference as nancy pelosi said. you had to pass the law before you could read it. to say the republicans didn't object to a very small part of it, they never had the chance. i would like to ask your conservative commentator -- i think the other guest -- mischaracterized that decision. the fifth circuit didn't say it was perfectly constitutional. i think most observers would say the fifth circuit failed to do w what the supreme court asked it to do in its remand, which is to examine closely whether t intr university of texas used the dis least obtrusive means to achieved this so-called diversity. is it suppose ed to be measured university wide? i think they failed to do that. if you have 20% minority guest students, but they're in the major of african-american o studies, does that accomplish diversity? what is the chancepl that the supreme court will go further than maybe some people expect to completely overrule the michiga

secondly, i am not sure despite the fact that we had 29,000 comme comments, we had 290 million hits on our choose my plate website which would subject people are interested inned guidelines and they haven't necessarily lost confidence in them. that's another data point that i think is important to take into consideration. i see this as a positive thing. maybe i'm looking at this wrong. but i think the more public input that you have, the better the decision making can be. we're obviously going to take this information into consideration as we should and there are a variety of input focuses on all of this. hopefully, we will come up with a best guidelines that continue to have the faith and confidence in the american public. >> i would just add, even as we implement the statute that as you appropriately indicate, there are different levels of evidence. we do -- it's related to your colleagues' earlier comment about, aren't there different populations affected in different ways? the evidence that we look at and whether that's on the issue of sodium and what that recommendation will be an
