it would be not come to list the source was dayton county municipal water, that water is quite differentagain to not bottle then when it started at end that is the distinction here. >> let's go back to dasani then and i am reading the label right here. sesnon carbonated, crisp, fresh taste. dasani is filtered through a system and enhanced with minerals corey fear peer fresh taste that can be beat. and then on the other side of the label, it says, let me find it here. purified water, sulfate, potassium chloride, salt and then it has an as a negligible amount of sodium and then it has a cross on it and it says minerals added four taste pier applied by reverse osmosis. so, to get that clean, crisp taste are the chemical added potassium chloride, salt and sodium or is it the other chemicals? >> i can't speak to dasani specifically but it is sometimes, what happens is the water comes from a new cipel sword and is purified with reverse osmosis treatments and the minerals are added back for taze. so that is what they are disclosing. i can't speak to that level, a label but in general that is of

most people around our country in toledo, akron, cincinnati, dayton, and mansfield have benefited from hatchman, which -- ax hatchman which cut the prices 50% to 70%. we have not allow follow-on biologics, to allow competition in the system. but next week, as the presiding officer knows, in the health, education, and labor, we have the opportunity to make affordable generic drugs more accessible for our seniors, more accessible for our nation's middle class. more accessible for the hundreds of thousands -- no, the millions of americans who are suffering from these diseases, but the -- the -- so many of them are unable to get the -- the -- unable to afford these expensive biologics. health care reform must broaden access to generic alternatives. it must broaden access to generic alternatives to biologics, the most expensive kinds of prescription drugs. failing to do so, mr. president, is not just bad policy -- bad public policy, failing to do so means we are letting down millions of our sickest citizens. i yield the floor and suggest the absence of a quorum. the presiding officer: the c

eva christian owns a popular european style restaurant called cafe boulevard in dayton, ohio. she's one of the 8,300 businesses that have already filed for bankruptcy protection this year. eva is trying to keep her cafe open and her workers employed while she's trying to work things out with the creditors. she said the cost of rising health care and food is making her not afford health care for her employees. and her ability to bounce back will be smothered by the taxocrats new taxes on small businesses. so she will just close up. making matters worse, the high cost of energy is making everything cost more. the taxocrats refuse to expand the drilling for oil and natural gas here at home that will bring not only prices down but create millions of american jobs and not send them to saudi arabia. they want to kill the coal industry that supplies most of our electricity. they don't want to build more nuclear power plants that provide limitless clean energy, and their solution is to tax energy consumption on all americans. all that will do is decrease the energy supply and cost --

relies on export markets for that have of its sales to small family-run companies like lion apparel in dayton, ohio. they've been boosted by the explosion of new trade that was made possible by this u.s.-chile free trade agreement. mr. speaker, this is a success story that has been repeated throughout every agreement that we've implemented. again, i underscore that. throughout every agreement that we have impled -- implemented we have success stories to which we can appoint. which is why we actually have a manufacturing goods trade surplus with our free trade agreement partners. let me repeat that, mr. speaker. we have a manufacturing, we're constantly hearing regularly from critics of trade that tremendous loss of manufacturing jobs because of trade agreements, but we actually have a manufacturing goods trade surplus with our f.t.a. partners. the key he to increasing manufacturing jobs in this country -- the key to increasing manufacturing jobs in this country is more and not fewer free trade agreements. the same holds true throughout all sectors of our economy. i spoke today with the c.e.o.

vj day in august of 1945 we were both in the air force regional hospital in dayton, ohio with polio. it is unbelievable. my case was relatively light. i got out in couple months or month and a half. she had to be transferred from the air force hospital where they couldn't care for her, transferred, i got dean at medical school of harvard to help me and she was transferred to children's hospital in baltimore associated with johns hopkins. they did a fantastic job. at that time they said she would never lift a arm or leg off bed again. people today don't understand polio. it was a terrible scourge. dr. salk and others eliminated that but at that time it was terrible. she would never lift arm or leg off the bed again. tex said to me, bob, you can't go to harvard. i know what those medical bills are. no way. you got to come to ford. finally i said, tell you what i do. i will go out there with you. i think it is insane. some way or other i will pay the damn bills. he said you come. i went out there. i will go only if we all go out there and we meet henry ford and find out what in the hell

ellen is calling us from dayton, ohio. how is it playing out for you? caller: well, richelle, i have to tell you that, i mean, let's be clear about this. this has ban three-day wasteful witch hunt on something that really boils down to conservative hypocrisy and an irrational fear that somehow people different from ourselves are going to give us a taste of our own medicine. it is this attitude of exclusion that accounts for the reason the gop has failed. we want our police officers to be impartial. we want our judges to be impartial. but let's not be hypocritical and ridiculous. we all come from somewhere. our backgrounds make us who we are. by the way, we've spent many years in this country using the legal system and the constitution to bolster treating people like second class citizens, and i would dare anyone to say that there was no background of the people involved in making those decisions. let's get over it and move on? >> thank you. ella, you're fired up, too. thanks for two fired up phone calls. people are fired up on my facebook page as well.
