democratic congressman keith ellison today introducing two new bills. one would allow you to register then vote on the same day in federal elections. the other bill from congressman ellison would ban states from requiring you to show photo i.d. when you vote. millions of eligible voters in the country do not have photo i.d. we're seeing signs of life in congress right now. also in the obama re-election campaign, signs that they are taking seriously these republican laws to make voting harder in 2012. "the wall street journal" reporting president obama's former white house counsel, bob bauer, is heading up efforts to battle back the republicans on this with a multi-pronged effort that includes stopping laws when they can be stopped and helping voters targeted by these laws figure out how to vote anyway though it has been made so much harder for them. that the white house picked a lawyer like bob bauer shows this will drive -- that this drive to protect voting will not just be a matter of educating people about what i.d. they need and how to get it. the w

be holding a press conference where undoubtedly he would say the same damn thing it's beyond to be ellison asking for you to focus on some other stories that sort of defense of her maintain a sort of our overly politically correct media personalities would like to claim it's in fact is asking you to do your job and inform and educate the public and if you look at the polls the public doesn't feel like the herman cain drama is the most important thing going on in this country the public is concerned over unemployment over millions of homes being underwater over the debt the college students or they're concerned about the fact that congress is still sitting on its hands playing a game of tit for tat and set up trying to move the country forward and creating policies that help us do so they are concerned over the back of the wealth in this country is concentrated in the hands of very few and it's getting worse every day and about the fact that wall street and washington are just too close to the money and wall street hold such a tight grip over washington that our government can't even stand

ellison: thank you for recognizing me for this hour. i'm going to speak for a time and then i'm going to yield my time to mr. jackson, who has an important message. but i would like to like to start just by talking to the american people about the progressive message. you can sit on your television set and watch this broadcast and for the last hour, what you would have heard as people claiming that you can get jobs by taking away our health and safety rules, by getting rid of regulation magicically, we are going to get jobs. we have had the clean air act in place since the early 1970's and have seen record job growth in the 1990's and seen the bush era when the republicans had the house, the senate and the white house, the lowest job era in modern memory. they have tried it their way and they got us into this mess. never forget that it was in january, 2009, when this country lost 741,000 jobs in that month alone and the democrats and president obama have been building back ever since. i want to say that the progressive message is talkin

from the halls of congress we are joined by keith ellison, democrat from minnesota and cochair of the congressional caucus. i watched the progressive caucus on job creation that you hosted yesterday where professor jeffrey sacks said in 1973 earnings peaked for the middle class and in 1979, jobs peaked and since then the middle class has been in purgatory. is that you why felt motivated? >> absolutely. these issues must come to light and professor sacks is well able to articulate that message. also they talked about the millionaires and the economy would improve. they don't need the extra money. that could be to infrastructure. and the panel points towards one thing and create jobs and austerity is not the way. >> on a single republican member of the house who was present? >> they were not, but they were welcome and invited. we would love to have had them. we wanted to offer them an alternative point of view. we will keep trying and not going to quit. >> six days from the committee deadline, how does it look for the house col veegs attempting to reach a bargain to reduce the debt? are

story tonight, another view of this, joining us from capitol hill and washington congressman keith ellison co-chair of the congressional progressive caucus. where am i going wrong here, congressman? >> i don't think this movement is dead. i also think that it's important not to blame everyone for the bad actions of a few. the fact is that this movement has raised important points and i believe the movement has been successful in that it has changed the national dialogue. bill, you remember the summer, everything was all about the super committee and the debt ceiling now we're talking about accountability on wall street for the first time. i think that is a good thing. no matter what happens. no matter what the future holds, they have changed the national dialogue. this is something that both tea partiers and progressives and people all over america probably can agree on that, you know, mistreatment, misbehavior on wall street needs to be focused on and there needs to be some accountability. >> bill: all right. you said congress should step up and support the occupy wall street movement. do

ellison: mr. speaker, this particular piece of legislation that uns mines unions, makes it more difficult to organize and generally frustrates american working men and women to organize on the job takes place just a few weeks before the republican majority was trying to take down the clean air act in the e.p.a. when you look at the american -- the republican job approach, it seems to me their argument seems to be that workers and people who want to breathe are the problem with the american economy. people who want to drink clean water and breathe clean air and people who want to have some rights on the job, they're the reason the american economy doesn't work. well that happens to be about 99% of us, mr. speaker. and i hope that as people are watching this debate on this floor today, that they are taking careful note of who is on the side of the american worker, who son the side of americans trying to breathe and have clean air, and what in the world does getting rid of the clean air act and gutti

ellison, for five minutes. mr. ellison: thank you, mr. speaker. mr. speaker, the right to vote is under attack. it may not be easy to see, but in state legislatures all across this country we're seeing a quiet passing of law that will strip american citizens of their right to vote. it may come as a surprise that this is happening in the united states. our great country is best known for its rich democratic tradition which is predicated on the right to vote, and this right to vote has been expanding over time, not retracting. throughout our history, brave men and women have fought and died for the right and has been denied to too many americans for too long. since its founding, the united states has been on a course toward infranchisement, not disenfranchisement. incredibly, that seems to be changing. state legislators are turning back the clock on decades of hard-fought voter protection. this year, 34 state legislatures introduced prohibited voter i.d. bills. if passed it could affect the voting ability of 21 million americans. two states have proof o

ellison, for five minutes. mr. ellison: thank you, mr. speaker. mr. speaker, in a few days our congress will see the reporting out of the work of the supercommittee. this is a big deal, and it's something that the american people, i pray, focus their attention on. it's a big deal because it is true, and i say this as a proud liberal member of this congress, that we do need to make sure that we reduce our country's long-term deficit. we need to do that because programs i care about, like head start, home heating oil for seniors, programs that are going to help develop our human capital, get crowded out when we say we just don't have enough money. we do need to make sure that we can live within the budget of this country but the question is not what we're going to cut but what we're going to spend on. that's the real question, the deeper question is, what are we going to invest in, because the fact is whether we do only stimulus and spend a lot of money in the hope we increase aggregate demand or we do what republicans suggest which is to cut everything

ellison: thank you, mr. speaker. mr. speaker, i come to the floor today to support and urge us to support kenyan military that has gone into somalia to set up a corridor of safety for the somali people and to help push back and fight against al shabaab. it is a terrorist organization in somalia. and because of the general chaos in somalia, mr. speaker, al shabaab has been able to do two very bad things. one is they, because of the instability they create, they have caused massive refugee problems into kenya which is why the kenyan military had to go into somalia to try to stop that. but they also created chaos in the red sea through piracy and also sponsored terrorism in other african nations like uganda. at the same time, mr. speaker, they are an -- attracting nuisance to every bad guy and they attract international terrorists to somalia which further destabilizes that nation. after 20 years of chaos, the somali people deserve, deserve some stability and the kenyan troops that are there are helping to bring that. the un

i want to bring in darlene ellison in dallas. her book is "the predator next door." a column in the daily beast explaining how pedophiles can keep their wiv in the dark. first of all, thank you for speaking out. i know that this has been difficult for you but you've written about it, you talked about it. how was it in your own situation that your husband of ten years, now your ex-husband, was able to hide his predator behavior, his sexual abuse of boys before the fbi brought him down? >> well, in our case, most of the abuses that did occur were not under our roof. he had compartmentalized the entire situation so he'd set up this perfect family of four and the abuse would take place outside of the family and/or in many cases outside of the country. >> you say he went on trips where he was able to carry out these sexual crimes. did he ever have access to children in your home? >> oh, absolutely. i mean he was a parent and so our children at the time of his arrest were 8 and 10 years old. he absolutely had access not only to our children but to or friends' children. whi

ellison: my friends on the other side of the aisle are fond of saying, government doesn't create jobs, only the private sector. all you've got to do is talk to any small business person on any street in america and ask them if the police department didn't make sure they had a safe neighborhood, how would that affect them? or go to a trucking company and say, if the infrastructure and roads and bridges were not in place, would you ship goods? they would tell you obviously the government helps business. this is so obvious that we have to state the obvious here on the floor of congress this anti-government, anti-public sector, anti-public employee and worker attitude does not help our country, it sets us back, it is wrong, and i for one want to salute the everyday hero the cops, the fire fighters, the teachers the people with work on our roads, the people who make sure we've got clean water and air to breathe and the fact is, go for it, public employees, we're proud of you. the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman's time has expired. trup does the gentleman from tennessee rise? >> to addre

finally, the naacp is pleased to support two bills which were just introduced by congress ellison. together these two bills will descend much of the damage which has been done over the past year by states in the arena of voting rights. one would predilection officials from acquiring individuals to provide photo id as a condition of attaining or casting a ballot in an election for federal office or by registering to vote in elections for federal office. the second build would require states to except same-day registration from any individual who wishes to vote in a federal election. the right of all those balls citizens to vote and have those votes count is the cornerstone of our democracy and is the fundamental civil rights guaranteed by our constitution. the naacp believe strongly that it is the obligation of the congress to ensure that everything that can be done will be done to ensure that every eligible american is allowed to vote and to be sure that his vote will be counted. sadly our nation is riddled with efforts to curtail voter participation. even more tragically, this tre
