so congress, through sensenbrenner and conyers and others, have responded to this and we have come up with a product which i think is very, very good. now, i saw "the wall street" editorial yesterday which i think is very, very disingenu s disingenuous. all we're saying here is when you demonstrate, that you are not being fair by people, you'll be covered. now the old law automatically covered about nine states, seven to nine, based upon how you define it. this one covers four, and it says to people, these are the incentives you have not to ever be covered, but if you volley this, you will be covered. so what's wrong with that? it's a good law. i hope we can come together and i hope eric cantor will, as a leader of the republicans, put this bill on the floor and let us have an up or down vote. >> i think that's the question, congressman. he spoke about his time with john lewis. this is the time to look at a law that martin luther king, of course, helped to get on the books. congressman james clyburn, thanks for talking to us today. >>> i want to turn to a winter storm pounding the mid

interesting that you have a lot of big guns out there, not just harry reid, but waxman, and warren, and conyers>> and nancy pelosi -- >> and pelosi and you have them lined up with very serious questions about this trade agreement. >> i think the answer to that is that people are fearful, because it is something that is knew and more intensive, but i agree strongly with what josh said. agreement was done three or four years ago, and the tpp is essentially on the same framework and outline. >> actually i think that that's -- the korea free trade agreement is part of the reason why many democrats are lining up against the president on the tpp, because the data is actually exports have declined to korea during that time period, and that our trade deficit has increased, and it has actually been a net loss of approximately 40,000 jobs, so you see that model being expanded is not something that is going to be beneficial for the president in -- for the tpp, and this is a massive agreement -- we have had agreements with smaller economies, but now we're talking about 40% of global economy being included

the chairman of the full committee, ranking member -- excuse me, the ranking member, ranking member conyers. the chair: the gentleman's request will be handled under general leave as well. the gentleman from virginia is recognized for the remaining one minute. mr. rigell: the regulations are continuing to burden the small business owners and i yield to my friend and colleague, chairman goodlatte. the chair: the gentleman is recognized. mr. goodlatte: i strongly support his amendment. title 3 makes important reforms to ensure that agencies identify their new regulations will have significant adverse effects on small businesses. one of the most important adverse effects is to identify whether these new regulations will make it harder for small businesses to obtain credit. small businesses create the new jobs in our economy but without access to credit, how can they do that? how can they survive. the gentleman's amendment makes reform that is a long overdue as our country struggles to achieve a did yourable job recovery. i urge my colleagues to support the gentleman's amendment. the chair: the

it reminds me of the "detroit free press" and their slamdorsement of john conyers when they say we'rehe editorial is them saying we knew he was a bully. we knew he was a bully at the time. think it's integrity on the part of the newspaper. it's a realization. and i think this will be the last time chris christie gets any endorsement on the paper. >> you know, robert. some new details are trickling out. what you do think is the best approach for governor chris christie at this point to handle this? >> let me just step back for a second and say, look, newspapers make endorsements in the moment. this was an incumbent governor who was 50, 40 points ahead. he had mom and dad democrats saying, i'm going to vote for you, governor. this was a governor we all knew who was a bully and he spoke the truth and he was very, very direct. let's put this in context. however, i would also say, to answer your question specifically alex, that the governor's office has not handled this well at all. one could make an argument he handled his press conference that was two hours long a month ago. but think we
