dingell: i was aware of this. i have communicated with the family and my office is setting up a meeting with the terry family as soon as i can get back to michigan. my motion here would ensure that the witnesses the minority has requested, including the former director of ample t.f. during the time of this operation are called for a full, open, public hearing to assure that the american people get the whole story. i am not here solely representing the interests of the terry family, i'm here representing the interests of the whole country and all of the -- i do not yield to the gentleman. and all the 800,000 people i serve in the 15th district of michigan. as i have said on a number of cases in the last year, congress has two choices in their decision make, we can work together and get something done or play political football. i choose to get something done which is why i have offered a resolution and if you had listened to what i have had read by the clerk, you will observe that it says, we want a thorough, full,

dingell has worked on for years. there is an issue i have been working on with a bipartisan basis throughout this congress that i want to discuss briefly. drug shortages have ran over hospitals, doctors and our families. figures recently released by the university of utah shows there were 56 more null reported drug shortages in the u.s. last year than in 2010 when there were 211. so, again, let me say again, 211 drugs in shortage. how can this be happening and what can we do about it? representative tom rooney and i, from florida, introduced the life preserving medications act. it creates an early warning system between the f.d.a., drug companies and providers so a community can respond to a drug shortage quickly and efficiently. it won't solve the root problems of the drug shortage crisis but it will help providers and doctors and hospitals identify those crises and help with the patients. this february, for example, under a voluntary program, the f.d.a. stepped in to allow for temporary emergency importation of the

but why go through penile plaque needs, gangrene and a doctor ring out your dingell like a damn clothshould we really be making men feel bad about their curvey penises when we could be making women feel bad about their freakishly straight vaginas?

today, is dingell is a city of refuge. for syrians, fleeing the terror at home. these women are packing clothes to send back to families inside syria. >> my brother is here. my feeling and my mind is there, in syria. >> do you think your leaders are going to be able to get you home? >> no, never. they live in another world perry >> from the city and this point in time, the fall of the regime seems far away. they still have the strong support of the security forces. the international community is divided. there is no intention of intervening militarily. there is another crucial factor, a crisis at the heart of the opposition. the syrian national council is the main opposition group. it is the one that has most international backing. it has 300 members representing different interests in a deeply divided country. they have been beset by power struggles from competing factions. they have no control over the military campaign being waged by the free sieving army. the most damaging charge is that the council has squabbled while civilians have died. this is your home.

dingell's -- we all take our responsibility seriously here. one of them, first and foremost, is support, uphold and defend the constitution of the united states. that constitution requires the congress and the executive branch, i'll end as i began, to avoid unnecessary conflict and seek accommodation to serve both interests, the executive branch and e legislative branch. we are not upholding that aspect of the constitution. i urge my colleagues to vote no, or no vote. but to seriously reject and let's hope that this will not be repeted. but i'm telling you, if eric hold -- it's eric holder one day, you don't know who it is the next because of the frivolousness with which they treat a serious responsibility of the house of representatives. it's appalling. i yield back the balance of my time. the speaker pro tempore: the gentlelady yields back her time. the gentleman from california. mr. issa: as i know the former speaker of the house knows, the attorney general is being hold in contempt as the custodian of the records for refusing to deliver th

it turns out a dingell really did take her baby -- it turns take herg go really did baby. she spent more than three years in prison before being cleared of killing her child. >> apple becomes friends with facebook and says goodbye to google. the latest products for apple were unveiled at a conference in san francisco. apple is replacing gps maps and making it easier for users to share their lives on facebook instead of google's competing social network. are you an organic shopper? some say do not buy organic food because it is more expensive. there are ways you can save and shop organic such as checking at farmers' market and using coupons. that brings us to our water cooler question of the day. would you be willing to buy more organic foods if the price was lower? you can share your response on wbaltv.com, on our facebook page, or send us an e-mail to watercooler@wbaltv.com. dads profess to what they're hoping to avoid on father's day. jane king has the bloomberg business report. >> good morning. the supreme court's ruling is still up in the air on president obama's healt

debbie dingell, senator alphonse d'amato. thank you both. jenna: other news, hbo is doing serious damage control today after creators of that popular show, "game of thrones", used this head on a spike in several beheading scenes. look closely to that. the fake head with the scraggly wig. there is a very strong resemblance to president george w. bush. we're only getting profile. what does hbo say about this? dennis kneale from the fox business network is here with more. >> reporter: hi, jeanne jenna. this just in from the department of extremely poor taste. hbo apologizing for hit series of "game of thrones" which used fake severed head of president george w. bush, grizzly say was unintentional oversight. we used whatever head we had around one writer explains. hollywood's longtime liberal bent and unrelenting sport of barack obama adding fuel to the fire. hbo's time warner, gave 80% of political contributions to obama and democrats in '08 election. hbo, 96% of its political cash went to dems in both 08 and 2012. none. producers and creators

is going to be persuasive of these guys, from west virginia, the guy mathison from utah, but john dingell, the dean of the house, and always stood with the nra had the decency today to stand up and say i'm not going to vote with this. it's out of bounds. this is an improper investigation. if the nra really cared about gun walking which didn't happen here, but really cared about gun walking, guns getting into the hands of drug dealers, they wouldn't be stopping background checks at drug shows because an awful lot of guns walk out of those shows. >> what is the political fallout of this? >> it will be overshadowed by the health care business tomorrow, and i'm not sure that longterm there's a huge amount of fallout except for people who care to take the time to look. we have a house of representatives that's in the grip of extremism. this is not something that has really happened a lot in our history. >> what would you compare it to? >> we're in new territory here. well, actually, the historians, the congressional historians don't really find any precedence for this kind of behavior in the h

dingell: i ask unanimous consent to revise and extend my remarks. the chair: without objection. mr.to begin by expressing great respect and affection for my friend from montana who has just spoken. it was a fine speech, but it has nothing to do with the interest before us. what the committee in this legislation has done has been to simply assure that the corps of engineers may not put forth guidelines clarifying the law as it was enuciated by the supreme court in the case that we are discussing in connection with the clean water act. it does something more. it fixes it so that farmers will lose certain protections which have been put in for the benefits by the law. and you're going to find, as my friend from maryland has so wisely observed, that you are being to hurt a bunch of american farming public by denying them a protection which has been given them. citizens under the language of the committee bill will have no way of knowing what the law is or how it is interpreted by the committee. it is not an issue before us today. whether you agree with the clean water act. the question

that's john dingell over in the house of representatives, a democrat. utility mact as ankh precedented price tag. e.p.a. puts the cost at nearly $10 million a year. that's interesting because no one else is no low. its -- other sources project it will cost considerably more making it the second-most expensive rule in the agency's history. this is second to only global warming and cap and trade. can you believe it? this chasm increase would cost the -- this tax increase would cost the average -- i did some calculating. i always do it because in my state of oklahoma when we start talking about billions and trillions of dollars, i like to see how is this going to affect our families. a $300 billion to $400 billion tax increase, wheys it would have been if they had been successful in passing cap-and-trade d cap and trade and what it will be if they do it by regulation, can you believe it, this tax increase will cost the average family in my state of oklahoma over $30,000 a year. of course you don't get anything for it. even lisa jackson, obama's administrat

dingell's -- we all take our responsibility seriously here. one of them, first and foremost, is support, uphold and defend the constitution of the united states. that constitution requires the congress and the executive branch, i'll end as i began, to avoid unnecessary conflict and seek accommodation to serve both interests, the executive branch and the legislative branch. we are not upholding that aspect of the constitution. i urge my colleagues to vote no, or no vote. but to seriously reject and let's hope that this will not be repeted. but i'm telling you, if eric hold -- it's eric holder one day, you don't know who it is the next because of the frivolousness with which they treat a serious responsibility of the house of representatives. it's appalling. i yield back the balance of my time. the speaker pro tempore: the gentlelady yields back her time. the gentleman from california. mr. issa: as i know the former speaker of the house knows, the attorney general is being hold in contempt as the custodian of the records for refusing to deliver

so, again, this -- we actually adopted a amendment by chairman dingell, mr. dingell, the chairman emeritus, to make sure that we restated that this does not change or affect our federal land management policies. mr. gardner: we made that clear in energy and commerce provisions of this bill as well ass and with that i yield the remaining time to the gentleman from washington. the chair: the gentleman yields back the balance of his time. the gentleman from washington. mr. hastings: mr. chairman, the gentleman i understood yielded back. i do not object if he has unanimous consent to close on his side and i'll close on my side. >> i close. the chair: the gentleman yields? without objection. mr. hastings: the gentleman has time or not? >> i yield back. the chair: the gentleman has yielded back. mr. hastings: with that, then, mr. chairman, the arguments have been made. i urge rejection of this amendment and i yield back the balance of my time. the chair: the gentleman from washington yields back. the question is on the amendment offered by the gentleman from illino

double i, after conclusion of debate, one motion to refer if offered by representative dingell of michigan or his designee which shall be separately debatable for 10 minutes equally divided and controlled by the proponent and an opponent. and iii, one motion to recommit with or without instructions. the chair may reduce to minimum time for electronic voting on the question of adoption of the motion to recommit as though pursuant to clause 9 of rule 20. . it shall with be in order in the house to consider house resolution 706 to intervene in judicial proceedings to enforce certain subpoenas. the resolution shall be considered as read, the previous question shall be considered as ordered on resolution to adoption without intervening motion or demand for division of the question except, one, 20 minute dofse bait equally divided and controlled by the minority leader and majority leader or their respective designees. the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman is recognized for one hour. >> for purposes of debate only i yield 30 minutes to the gentleman from massachusetts, mr. mcgovern. pend -- pend

darrell issa says he has not received a dingell document from the attorney general yet.they accept dowels will they postpone a vote, fan they do with chairman issa have the political muscle to schedule another one? and will they protect some on the staff of the attorney general or at the white house? richmond afraid if they don't have that vote soon, they won't have it at all. of course, you have the summer recess coming and they will not come forward at all as some believe. megyn: mr. holder says in this letter that he expects this extraordinary accommodation will fully adress remaining concerns that issa and the house leadership have. we shall see. we have another fox news alert on a super power showdown that sounds like something out of the cold war. the g20 summit is putting president obama and vladimir putin in the same place for the first time in a while. president obama once offered up the idea of a reset with our russian allies. but that was before we discovered russia is sending attack helicopters to the syrians despite the u.s. request to stop that. he will hav

dingell. >> thank you. i appreciate your courtesy.iend and resource to this committee and bureau chief with three bureaux of fcc in the 70s and served the department of justice before that. welcome. i look forward to our exchange. and of course commissioner mcdowell we appreciate your service and thank you for being here this morning. you're wise counsel has been helpful on many occasions. to both questions this is the yes or no answer. is it true that some members of the i.t.u. made proposed revisions in the itrs that set out prescriptive international regulations for issues such as internet privacy and cybersecurity, yes or no? >> yes. >> to both witnesses do you believe it is wise for the united states to exceed to international standards on internet matters not settled definitively? that is privacy and cybersecurity? yes or no? >> it is unwise for us to get too far in front of the overall consensus. >> you find that to be a bit rushing things? >> i can't recall if it should be yes or no but it would be a bad idea. >> i don't like

letter from james acting attorney general after the attorney general ashcroft was accused devotee dingell of the investigative authority of the department of justice to the special counsel and declined to exercise any sort of supervisory control over mr. fitzgerald the special counsel. so that was an independent investigation. this is not. if in fact the attorney general holder and the administration continued to promote this pretense of independent investigation my hope is that congress will take up the responsibility to do what is constitutionally authorized and obligated to do and that is to investigate this matter ourselves. i've talked specifically to senator collins and senator lieberman of the homeland security governmental affairs committee there would have jurisdiction over some if not a substantial portion of this coming and my hope is that we will have a truly independent investigation because you cannot investigate yourself and plame you have no conflict of interest which the administration and the attorney general are claiming. >> where is the outrage in this administration?

dingell. now we recognize the gentleman from tennessee for five minutes. >> again, i thank you all. ambassador, a couple questions for you. when was the last time that the state department published a notice of an official meeting to prepare for the wicket 12? >> you know, i'm not sure when they did. i understand that we had an obligation to publish notices. >> let me help you out with that a little bit. the last public notice i could find was january 11. from what i've been able to find out, the state department is holding regular meetings of stake holders on a regular basis, and you've done this all year long. to prepare for the conference. isn't that correct? >> are you managing a list serve for stake holders to circulate position papers to inform the u.s. delegation in advance of the wicket 12 prep tri meetings? >> yes, that's also correct. >> that's correct. so then, first of all, how do you get on the list serve so that your aware of what's going on, and then how can my constituents that are not just the largest and wealthiest companies on the internet or the intellectual elit

dingell? still here? and mean, all these guys are here for a long time. massachusetts doesn't change. in texas it's got to be a more than a one-party state. so you're going to have the vote in what they do one of us going to the senate because symantec will come fate he sold us out. he is not a real tea party. bucher just got bumped. these guys are getting bumped and i will tell you orrin hatch is and from the cold yet either. he could get bumped in utah. it is sad, i think, that you can't put it together yourself believe reasonable people do, which is they don't buy the blue plate special. very few voters love unions. they're pro-choice. they go down the list in every single thing. they're against free trade. are there people like this? i think there's about 80% on the other side who were down the line left or right. i liked when people say on this issue is not what the party. i disagree with that, but you hardly ever hear that. i'm been earmarked as some kind of a pro-life nut because that's the one issue you with a party on a hobby case you're someone

dingell? >> thank you, mr. chairman. i appreciate your courtesy.ld like to welcome my old friend, the ambassador. he is a friend and resource to this committee. he was bureau chief under three bureaus back in the 1970's and served at the departure of justice before that. while i look forward -- i look forward to our exchange. commissioner mcdowell, we appreciate your service, and thank you for being here this morning. you are wise counsel has been helpful to me on many occasions. this is a yes or no answer. is it true that some members of the itu may propose revisions in , for issues such as internet privacy and cybersecurity? yes or no regrets the answer is yes. >> you are both witnesses. do you believe it is wise for the u.s. to accede to international standards on matters not settle definitively? that is privacy and cybersecurity by congress. yes or no? >> it is on lies for us to get too far in front of the overall consensus. >> you find that to be rushing things, is that right? >> it should be a bad idea. >> i don't like to do that, but we have
