john conyers says tailoring things for a local audience is not necessarily a bad thing.lazer is managing partner, co-fonder, and portfolio manager at may flower advisers. he thinks these companies are going down a dangerous path. gentleman, good to have you on the program. larry, isn't it normal to compromise a bit, make some adjustments in order to do business in a certain market? and boy, oh, boy, is china the market to be in. >> that's right. well, maria, we can chock this up to the cost of doing business in china, or we can fear this is a sign of things to come. it is utterly hypocritical that the chinese state-controlled media casts a blind eye to the underhanded business dealings every day, yet they attack the icon of americana, apple, such as a warranty and customer service issue. why, because it's the low hanging fruit. just like young brands, the owner of kfc, just like walmart, they are so dependent on the chinese market. for apple, it's manufacturing, but it's also the chinese consumer. they have put themselves into this position. maria, this is not about a wa

conyers: mr. speaker, i ask unanimous consent to address the house for one minute and to revise and extend my remarks. the speaker pro tempore: without objection, the gentleman is recognized for one minute. mr. conyers: thank you. i wanted to begin our discussion with h.r. 1549, morro -- be up to -- tomorrow, helping sick americans now act. i am not supporting this bill because the bill's proposals are counterintuitive to the anticipated outcome of the prevention and public health fund. this legislation strips four years of funding from the prevention fund to pay for a very short extension of a new enrollment in the pre-existing condition insurance plan. further, the bill insists on a partisan offset that effectively eliminates the prevention and public health fund through 2016 to instead reopen the federal high-risk pool program, created by the affordable care act, through the end of the year. while i support reopening the high-risk pool, i cannot support how this bill goes about creating the fun

i worked with the congressional black caucus and worked on capitol hill and for john conyers, and with congressman ron dellums and whose seat right now barbara bra -- barbara lee holds. congressman bobby rush was part of the illinois chapter of the black panther party and he's a united states congressmen. two people that come out of our ranks and a lot of other people there. right now you only have 89 congressmen who are basically progressive voters. we need 400 progressive types to get rid of stuff and curtail the corporate runny mitch -- rich from screwing over the african-american people. so our goal is humanizing the world. not some revenge. we're not talking about revenge politics. and so i want you to understand that revolutionary black nationalism in that context. >> on behalf of the museum here in san francisco, we thank our authors, joshua bloom, and waldo martin, jr. for their amazing text, black against empire, he history and politics of the black panther party, and we want to offer a special thank you to chairman bobby seale because it's because of your leadership we can be

. >> you're from conyers, georgia. going back to atlanta now for the final four. how much support from your hometown and how much more -- >> tons of support. everybody i was really close with in high school has really been reaching out and trying to make sure i'm fine and they want to come visit. and do things, like i don't have a basketball tournament, but most of the guys told me, i'll still be busy, like as if i was playing. i'm going to try to get as much time as i can in with them. and i appreciate all the support and everything i've been getting, but we still got to go out there and get a job to do. >> you said they listened to your message. what are you telling them for saturday? >> i don't think i have to tell them anything. i think they'll look over to the bench and see me sitting there. that's all the motivation we need, really. this isn't one of those things where we need to be motivated. i kind of feel like we're in the final four. there is four teams left. either we're going to win or be back here in louisville. >> how long until you start playing aga

conyers: under those circumstances, i yield back the balance of my time. the speaker pro tempore: the entleman's tiasxpired. for what purpose does the gentleman from texas rise? without objection. >> mr. speaker, i rise today to introduce the veterans benefits claims faster filing act. this no-cost legislation will shorten the time that veterans must wait for their claims to be decided. nationally the average wait time for a claim is nearly 300 days. in el paso, texas, the veterans i represent wait an average of 439 days. we must do better. my legislation will require the v.a. to report and post processing times and award rates for claims filed in a variety of ways. rocker rocker from the fastest -- rorkrork from the fastest way -- mr. o'rourke: to the fastest way and the slowest way, which is filing on a nonstandardized piece of paper. informing veterans that they developed claims are consistently turned around in 1 hundred days or less -- 100 days or less. imagine your veterans saving months of waiting unnecessarily on a decision on their claim. we owe a

these issues, even though some of the other legislative separates the muppet i think you mentioned conyers speaking that something that's important to your boss. ancan you speak a little to that approach? >> i think she, i think that he is as a pragmatic kind of practical application of the law we are looking at data that is owned by third party providers and whether it's gotten through a geolocation mechanism for through an e-mail service provider, that it is a data that we need to be very cautious about. and so i think it's a natural point, i think there is a little bit more understanding and awareness about the e-mail problems and more of the case law has really kind of, there's a uniformity and now that is dealt with in the area of geolocation it seems as though there's more discord. there's a greater need to legislate in this area to provide consistency. so to pair the two issues together i think it's a good opportunity to educate both of the issues and provide the same standard as a these are identical, these are data that these third parties have and we're going to apply the same st
