davis: thanks for having me. host: joining me with the question is tim starks and judy that covers congress for "the hill." where are we as far as security than in 2016? rep. davis: when we were charged of the 115th congress, we worked in a bipartisan way to invest $400 million into our election security issues working with d.h.s. to hire more administrators, to fight back cyber attacks, and also giving money to our states so that our state and local officials can work with d.h.s. hand in hand to ensure the election security f every single election. believe the most secure elections are actually the ones i held at the local level. host: what's the most outstanding issue as of to day? rep. davis: there is a lot about standing issues when it comes to election infrastructure. we need to look at the next most secure way of voting is going to be, test those new methods. we sat down with folks who are testing somewhat of a block chain type voting to where you can do it on your phone. it's been used in certain elections

davis: yes. >> how so? we have a cyber navigator program, they are working with election cials, local officials in every country are working hand in hand with our illinois state board of is working hand in hand with the department of homeland security. the matter of fact, during last year when secretary neilson was still at d.h.s., we had a secure briefing. i went up to her immediately after that briefing to talk to efforts.t illinois's this was before the 2018 elections and she and her ssistant who was in charge of these measures could not talk officials t illinois working with them. i'm proud of what we have been illinois.ccomplish in that's what bipartisan agreements can do. have been we successful in washington by investing dollars, stops more people aving work together to identify intrusions. that doesn't get enough attention out here, the in this we have had arena all right. of the aid you are one most bipartisan members in the house. a sea of been retirements of members getting d with not anything do

davis, is recognized. mr. davis: thank you, mr. chair. from to my good friend arizona, mrs. lesko. this amendment is a very well-intended amendment. my colleague from california, it is a very well-intended amendment that's correct, i tually believe, what would be an unintended consequence if this were to ever become law. -- this section that is being amended today provides power to the attorney general to intercede in or she races when he believes state and local officials have not taken, quote, dequate steps to correct misinformation. chair,ing the attorney general -- madam chair, attorney general is a nonpartisan official. attorney general barr to beiven broad authority given adequate steps -- this is the language in the bill. madam re the facts, chair. if attorney general barr was given broad authority to take adequate steps in correcting the in any democratic district, imagine that. imagine the uproar. there would be a public uproar. same could be said for a democratic attorney general. . this section not only gives broad authority to the a.g. but it's extremely vague and will

davis is recognized. mr. davis: mr. chairman, we have some folks that are on their way here to offer some more remarks. so while we're waiting, i'll offer my remarks on some of the comments that were made by my colleagues. one of my colleagues talked about bipartisanship. this is a bipartisan bill. it is not a bipartisan bill. the majority party clearly had an opportunity to put through our committee and onto onto the floor a bill that had republican and democrat co-sponsors. instead of doing that they chose to follow the exact same path they've followed in the past through other committees and other pieces of legislation that they don't want to put real solutions forward they want to put political talking points forward. they decided to combine what my colleague from virginia just talked about, allowing a federal -- allowing the attorney general to participate, possibly in federal campaigns. that should scare every american regardless if you're republican or democrat. let's keep our elections run the most safe and effe

"laura davis was confused. in the living room of her house stood a fidgety old man, but she did not know what the visitor wanted. he talked about his grown children, he talked about his arizona retirement and he talked on and on and on about his beloved orchids and all of their beauty and frajility and their rewards. davis had little patience for idle chitchat or exotic flowers. she was an intensive care nurse scrambling at home with 5-year-old fraternal twins, her live-in elderly mom, and an increasingly rocky marriage. she tried to be polite, but really, wasn't it time for this guy to go? finally it was. as laura walked the man outside to his car, he paused and wheeled around, by the way, he told her, i'm the one who killed your father. laura reeled. was this some kind of a joke? by the way, what kind of talk was that? so causal, yet so devastating. with his black-framed glasses and shock of white hair, the visitor looked like a lanky grandfather, not some demented prankster. he seemed nervous too. his face w

davies, who are rapidly dying. the least cpmc could do is make the 17 retrofitted beds at davies into permanent subacute beds so we could get permanent staff because you can't -- this is a very high level of skill and it is very difficult to recruit the skilled staff for temporary jobs as these patients die, and which may be one of the explanations of the high death rate. in general, cpmc's approach to tenderloin it lives, to everything, has been passive. blaming st. anthony's for not doing enough to get patients to them is ironic and ridiculous. cpmc should be doing what it needs to do to make these patients welcome and to recruit these patients and even to case manage these patients. this is the same with the center of excellence in geriatric. to not have a hospital-based skilled nursing facility to send these patients to after a complex at geriatric patient has a stake, is ridiculous. the medical staff office building at st. luke's or the 30 shelf beds at davies could be used for subacute or hospital-based care.
