with all due respect to the president the tax cut particularly for the wealthy will not help florida or texas rebuild from the storms and the president has a back words we are about to add billions to the deficit to rebuild parts of our country that we absolutely should do because it is an emergency. but that makes it even moresc important tax reform needs to be fiscally responsible and a deficit neutral. we would be wise to remember the bush years when congress passed a massive tax cut deficit employment to warsaw on the national credit card many republicans are pointing at the size to cut back ordered benefits like social security and medicare and medicaid so after all of this emergency spending for harvey and irma that we must do that would cost hundreds of billions or trillions more on top of the debt it should be deficit neutral. we're willing to work with our republican colleagues so far as they work on tax reform that is deficit t neutral to provide tax relief and that point was made by my democratic colleagues last night. we will not go along to lavish the wealthy with more car about

with all due respect, a tax cut, particularly one for the very wealthy is not going to help florida or texas rebuilt from the storms. they have it backward in another way, we are about to add billions to the deficitn to rebuild parts of our country. something we absolutely t should do because it's an emergency. that makes it even more important that tax reform be fiscally responsible and deficit neutral, not tax cuts as the president tweeted. we would be wise to remember the bush era when congress passed a massive tax cut and put two wars on the national credit. it exploded the deficit and that.ns ever since, many republicans have been pointing at the size of the debt as a reason to cut back on earned benefits like social security, medicare and medicaid. after all this emergency spending for harvey and irma, which we absolutely must do, we should empower hundreds of billions, maybe trillions more on top of the debt. to tax reform should be deficit neutral. we are willing to work with our republican colleagues. so far as they are working on tax reform that is deficit neutral and provide middl

united states whether we look at the french colonies and louisiana for example was a colony in florida or texas or new mexico all those places had slaves. so when the europeans first arrived, the first people they colonized were native people and native people themselves. >> host: as we move south, when was it being a polished, massachusetts or new york for their sleeves leading up to those colonies? >> aide david and to a certain extent in the united states. so, we see in 1776 in virginia saying that if you come fight for the british, you can gain your freedom and that is one of the emancipation proclamation's of course he needed it in order to get soldiers. he didn't have tha and he was ot there in norfolk virginia trying to figure out what to do and he just decided i better take advantage of these people who want to be free and will fight for me. so that was one of the first emancipation proclamation's if not the first. but at the same time the american revolution brought a kind of moral conflict to those persons that were founders of the nation and people that begin to abandon the instituti

we're not depicting a direct -- we're not expecting a direct hit like florida or texas. let's talk about the temperatures around our neck of the woods. it's been warm and soupy. we got into a fall-like pattern with highs in the 60s. now all of a sudden it starts to feel like summer again. 75 wednesday, thursday an friday, 84 degrees both days. the normal is 78. we've added humidity to those numbers, as well. it feels uncomfortable out here at times. presently 60 in pottstown. 60 in coatsville. 65 in malvern. center city, 69. warminster, 65. 70s in agenda beach and fortescue -- gandys beach, fortescue, 60 degrees. hammonton, 64. satellite and radar we have a little bit of patchy fog out here this morning, once the fog lifts we'll see a imhings of sun sun -- combination of sun and clouds. you can see there's not much going on as the remnants of hurricane irma has fizzled out. we're not seeing there's any kind of feature sticking around. showers possible north and west of the of the city, 84 degrees that's the forecasted high. when i come back i'll have more on our weather

he said the logistics for helping out puerto rico completely different from florida or from texas. because it's an island, very mountainous with limited access to many areas means there's many problem that they didn't deal with in either florida, texas or louisiana. he reiterated this idea that they have to get more people in there as well and methods to get those supplies from the port cities out to the hardest hit areas. listen to rick scott here. >> i talked to the president about it. i told him, of course, the biggest issue right now in puerto rico is we need more truck drivers and we need more trucks. we have to get everything out of the port, whether it's the fuel, the water. the biggest thing is the fuel. their issue is different from florida. we had a problem of getting fuel in to the ports. they had the fuel. they have to get it out of the ports. >> again, the problem is getting stuff out of the ports. the u.s. senate is going to have its chance to weigh-in on this. they'll be meeting with the fema administrator, brock long monday. see how that goes, trace. >> yeah, they ha

if you look at florida or texas, people in the united states are generous. when citizens are hurting, we want to help. but we want to help people who are prepared to help themselves. they know they are in a hurricane zone. we will come and help, but we don't want to hear l.a. aching -aching.p come -- belly this puerto rico have their own national guard? guest: it is under command of the governor. to respond tored this situation? i think the point is well taken. the local authorities needed to be more prepared. they needed to have better emergency services. but i will go back to the same point, it is a shared responsibility. if that partnership is not working on. lenders, this is an extreme situation, i doubt any federal authority what prevented the kind of damage with that documentation of rain. we realized what it was too late. two days after we knew what it was. host: brian in northeastern washington state, independent line. is,er: my first question what could he proposed to the military to help the puerto rican military members that are serving, but have

florida and texas. why get the kind of response that the present out this morning when he didn't say anything like that about residents of florida or texas after storm the h it those areas. i should tell you, fred, one area of concern, the skies have gotten really dark around where we are. we're having connect 2iivity iss in part because there is a storm headed here. we're expecting rain this weekend, several inches falling on an area that's already saturated with water. neighborhoods that are still flooded. so the problems here in puerto rico are many, and there may be even more on the way. >> thank you so much. spotty communication there, but we all under stand the conditions there. so communication is very difficult and volt tal. >>> so the president tweeting the attacks from his private golf club in new jersey, where he is spending the weekend, his attacks via twitter. cnn's ryan nobles is live near the president's club. anything more from the president on what he was hoping the goal to be from these tweets just ahead of his visit to puerto rico? >> reporter: well, as always, the white house telling us the president's tweets sp

that's one situation in florida or texas or new york where you have a local government with a lot ofs a different situation in puerto rico. puerto rico, had big problems to begin with. so i think they would just slow -- >> do you think any of that had to do of spreading to other big devastating hurricanes that hit the u.s.? >> the federal government has tremendous resources and every state has a national guard. i sent down hundreds of national guards and helicopters and i sent down my state police. the federal government put out a call. i think they under estimated the situation and under estimated the amount of support that puerto rico was going to need. as a local government, it has fewer resources. it is one thing to help florida and texas. it is another situation in puerto rico. it is an island isolated financially and in sovereign. the government has to play a larger role. >> right. >> the thing to focus on now is what's next? we are in this first phase which is the emergency response phase. people ordering medical supplies and etc. we are going to the rebuilding phase and lets

federal government they're saying that they're not receiving the same treatment that people in florida or texas that were also hit by hurricanes received and many of them here are demanding more help that's all coming up the u.s. health secretary resigns after a scandal over his use of taxpayer money for private flights class. i mean our beloved especially hunter valley today congress center of everything to have a plan to curb the country's out it's called five house they from. however seymour pretty lively downpours across central parts of china recently in a long line of cloud and rain pushing right out into the east china sea the i was sea pushing up towards the japan over the next couple days it will sink its way further southward shanghai had a pretty wet week last week i'm afraid this further heavy downpours in the forecast over the next few days and i think we are likely to see some localized flooding if you show as to just pushing up towards the south china hong kong all the edge of those so humid it thirty three degrees celsius the showers they continue to stretch their way across ind

that can go to texas or florida. i shak head at all of those abusin money in the federal govern >> sho strong message be sent about what it means to have used those funds? >> what is unique is every news outlet held tom price to task and the president is frustrated and angry at him. it will hit him in the pocket book a he will pay at least a portio back. >> but $2 on a 10 spot. >> witoversees, if you are traveling to nashville or philad where there are flight every hour on the hour. those two scenarios. i'm not going to call it. does this rise to the call of having him fired? no. it's a mistake. he's going to pay it back and let's move on. i'm a conservative and a fiscal hawk. i'm going to call him out for it. he was our budget chairman and he was writing budgets to save us money and you get to the admini and your views plane us wrong message. if you are going to stand on princi you should stand on princi every day as opposed to one day in the house and the other at health and human servic tom price is doing a great

he didn't say those comments for the people in florida, or texas. and we are americans. the i don't know why he thinks we're not doing our job. but we have to have support from the united states. i mean our men go to war to help the united states. why can't he help us in this kind of matter? >> reporter: we are as american as people in florida and texas who both got hit by storms just a few months ago. or rather weeks ago. i should tell you, we are seeing the community come together here. the area has a lot of high-rises occupied by senior citizens, people that couldn't go up or down the stairs when the electricity went out. so i spoke to a group of doctors that started going high-rise to high-rise checking in on these older folks making sure they were hydrated and had simple medication. for folks that didn't, these doctoring pitched their money in together to help them to go to the drugstore to make the line, to purchase these products to make sure people were taken care of. one of those doctors told me we are doing this ourselves, and he, himself, is right now without

saving tremendous amounts of money no matter where we go if you look at what we have done in florida or texase that for relatively little compared to what other people have done. as a human being tom price is a very good man. i can tell you that. that would be unacceptable. [indiscernible] i've have it for meetings for the state chairman and i would be making a decision over the next two or three weeks. brock has an opinion -- fantastic job. his acting. will be making that decision probably within the month. it's really coming together. i heard everyone stood for the national anthem. and it shows respect for our country and our flag and for the national anthem. finishing up about the federal reserve. candidate. with candidates a job that they want is going to be for janet yellen. this is interesting because it affected the markets. i don't like to see some. the perception that it wasn't right. we will be announcing something today. i'm not aware of that. [indiscernible] probably today something will happen. something will be announced. i think is it's a very fine person. i certainly don't lik

or texas or florida, or other places in this country, on the mainland where we have seen these kinds of storms. the three point 4 million people in puerto rico are almost exactly the same number as the population of connecticut. that thend believe response would be better in connecticut if we faced the same kind of natural disaster. disaster, isade the failure to move food, fuel, medicine, water and other necessities as well as medication equipment from ports and airports to the interior of the country, even to major cities, where currently, apparently, the lack of drivers and passage makes it difficult. whether this supplies of food, fuel, medicine and water, are or need on the island to be increased on an emergency basis, whether there are shipments, the simple fact is that puerto rico faces a disaster. man-made after natural. the loyal andend dedicated people of fema and all of the national guard especially -- including the national guard in connecticut which performed with such heroism and dedication in the face of such difficult circumstances. their efforts need to be matched by

we can position hundreds of trucks in florida or texas for line services. we can't do that in puerto rico. we have to bring them in the moment the storm subsides. that's what we are doing. a lot of the reporting is not wrong, but dated. for instance i saw that only 11 hospitals were assessed and opened. that was probably accurate, but wrong at the time it was reported. we assessed most of the hospitals at this point on the territory on the island. there are 69 hospitals total. 47 have been assessed by the department of defense and health and human services. 44 of the hospitals are operational. this is important for a number of reasons. we were concerned with patients needing dialysis and 6500 or so. those are life-threatening conditions if they don't get the treatment. it is not a matter of too fast or too slow. people are fixating on that, but two business models under way. they decentralized one and centralized one. i will get into that briefly and take your questions. first, we send -- the request was for me to talk louder. two things. we need to central

citizens a puerto rico equally that if it were an event in florida texas or anywhere else in the nation. to make things worse many here feel the president has abandoned after hurricane maria struck trump spend days tweeting about u.s. football stars not until monday did he mention what's a rico now at least he has promised a visit i'm going to we're going to stay probably hurt. but we got the break we're going to the place with this story that's not a what but let's write up the order let's do this and that that might last really. like. meanwhile private eye donations are flooding in from puerto rican communities on the mainland u.s. basketball star j.j. barea arrived with a plane load of supplies pop star jennifer lopez donated a million dollars the crisis has rallied mandate americans with roots on the island . to any not endure of violence against women and how the parties deal with it is an ongoing topic of concern so when a video a showing female protest is being beaten up by police appeared online it caused outrage a social media editor of us that is here to fill us in what is the

so different from this occurring in florida or texas, where you can call on your neighboring state and solicit some of that help, over here, you need to airlift it. and the air traffic control has been clogged. so it is -- it has been a challenge, because of those unprecedented events. but they are responding. what we need to make sure is that the aid keeps on going. this does not end by any stretch of the imagination in a couple of days. this is a long run. >>. >> reporter: governor, did you have a conversation with president trump and did you specifically request to have the jones act lifted so that aid can flow more fully to puerto rico? >> i did not solicit that to him personally, but it is something that would help puerto rico, certainly. at least in the short run. in the long-term, we can discuss the benefits, the merits of having it or not. but right now, in the short run, in the emergency, we need to have everything that's accessible -- >> reporter: any over official that requested it? >> we requested it for irma and we got it for irma. we got a seven-day waiver for irma. so we

if you look at what we've done in florida, or texas.one that for relatively little compared to what other people -- so i don't like to see that happen. and i think it's a shame, because as a human being, tom price is a very good man. i can tell you. >> [ inaudible ] -- >> $52,000 of the -- >> that's unacceptable to me. no. that would be unacceptable. >> mr. president -- >> go ahead? >> [ inaudible ]. >> i've had four meetings, the fed chairman, and making a decision over the next two or three weeks. >> what about the use of [ inaudible ] for your staff. >> what? >> where are you in [ inaudible ] -- >> we are -- well, first of all you know, brock has done a fantastic job at fema, and elaine duke is acting, and working very hard, and, you know, i think what fema has done is incredible between all the hurricanes and doing so well. but we'll be making that decision probably within a month. homeland -- homeland security. yes. >> you said you spoke to jerry jones on the [ inaudible ] -- >> well, i've spoken to other owners, and -- i really th

federal government they're saying that they're not receiving the same treatment that people in florida or texas that were also hit by hurricanes received and many of them here are demanding more help. but a lot of is joining us live on skype from washington d.c. thank you very much for your time first of all what's your reaction to the way donald trump has responded to puerto rico i find it unfathomable that a sitting united states president would show such a lack of empathy for people that are suffering and would make a humanitarian crisis partisan it's just that i cannot believe he would say the mayor of san juan has been told by the democrats to be nasty to him it's unreal it's as if we're living in some sort of dream he should be stepping up to what a commander in chief should be doing at this very moment and talking about the reality of the situation and giving facts and figures and really mobilizing the american people to help fellow americans but in practical terms are we placing criticism for the american response in this in the wrong place if we try to attach it to the white house cert

you look at what we have done in florida or texas, we have done that for relatively little compared to what other people. i do not like to see that happen and it is a shame because as a human being, tom price is a very good man. i can tell you. that is unacceptable. that would be unacceptable. >> [inaudible] president trump: i have had four meetings with -- for the fed chairman. i will be making a decision that -- in the next few weeks. all rock has done a fantastic job at fema. elaine duke is acting and working very hard. i think what fema has done has been incredible between all these hurricanes and doing so well but we will be making that decision within a month. homeland security, yes. >> [inaudible] president trump: i have spoken to other owners and i think it is coming together. i noticed last night or i was told, i did not see it but i heard everybody stood for the national anthem and that shows respect for our country, our flag and for the national anthem. i am very happy. -- happy i heard that and they should stand. you have to stand. it is our national anthem, you have to sta

again, that is probably not what a lot of people in florida or texas are going to want to hear that ising amongst some economists and analysts. i knew you can reach into the depths of your mind be on catastrophe bonds. no better woman to do this than yourself. tracy, thank you very much for joining matt and i today. have a great weekend in abu dhabi. there is one seminal event for the market, the euro, in germany. it is the european central bank. matt, did you just run away from germany because you knew it would be a big day? [laughter] matt: no, in fact, i will be paying very close attention with david wes and alix steel. the interesting thing is we have seen a real spike in the euro-dollar and we have seen real strength in the euro pound. we see real strength across the board in the euro, and that may be because investors are not are expecting to hear something in the q&a session from mario draghi. we are not expecting to hear something in the statement. he may leave that until october. in the q&a potion which starts at 2:30 on the continent, 1:30 in the u k, investors are going to s

residents including the island's governor are accusing washington of prioritizing areas like florida or texas also damaged by hurricanes and overlooking the damages and puerto rico. it would require when i met him saturday in puerto rico there's a real emergency there is a financial situation that everyone is aware of and two category five hurricanes have passed near or over puerto rico in a period of just two weeks if there's something i've been able to witness flying over the island it's that the devastation is severe now thousands of people have been posting on twitter the past few days to call for attention for puerto rico and and these people include hillary clinton who say that president trump and the defense department need to send in the navy to look after american citizens now the u.s. government says it is there it is helping the federal emergency management agency or fema says it sense one point four million meals to puerto rico on friday and it's sending half a million more every day ten people have died since hurricane maria decimated the island last week the u.s. department of e

even though individually having a hurricane in florida or texas is not unusual, it is the intensity andthe one coming right after the other. >> i hear people asking all the time, what does this mean in the big picture, is this climate change, what is the trend that is bringing such extreme weather in such unusual circumstances. >> one event does not mean it is proof of climate change but several coming in a row, to give you further evidence of climate change happening. the temperatures have been warm in the atlantic, that's what gives the fuel to the hurricanes so that is one thing, and then there are things like the 100 year flood or 500 year flood like they had in texas. it's not like you are supposed to wait 100 years for the next one happened but every year there is one in 100 chance for that. in texas they have had three in a row and that is accumulating evidence that the statistics we are used to are changing. the climate is changing, and getting warmer. there is much evidence of that. >> we would have an above average year, what are the conditions that led them to believe so.>> p

and of course, it didn't take two weeks to go to florida or to texas. and today, the president is defending his administration's response. here he is at the white house. >> this isn't like florida where we can go right up the spine or like texas where we go right down the middle and we distribute. this is, you know, a thing called the atlantic ocean. this is tough stuff. >> he flew to both of those places just like he'll fly to puerto rico. she's "outfront" tonight with more on the growing health crisis. >> hurricane maria battered more than the buildings of puerto rico. it crippled many of the island's hospitals in desperate need of fuel to keep generators running for power. at this hospital, two patients in critical condition died. >> if the condition the hospital will be normal, the patient would have more chance. we have more probability to manage the condition, but it was even though they were so critical, we don't have the facilities to manage that type of patient. >> my biggest fear is that we won't get to anyone. everybody in time. and we're not

florida gets in my store or texas gets it by storm, and fema comes in and tells the state we're here to help. you tell us where to go. you tell us what you need and will provide resources that you tell us are the places you want us.wa and it works that way. the president issued an emergency declaration. it opens up fema and other disaster relief and then the states government directs, they tell him this is what we need, i this is what we needed and this is the stuff we can have on our own.ha in the case of puerto rico thatt model will not work. it will not work first and finan foremost because as i said earlier the financial and fiscal constraints the island faces have limited its capacity to build its own internal ability to respond. they had just finished repairing the damage from irma a few weeks ago. so they are literally not nearly enough basic things like those wooden poles to hold up the electric lines, or the transformers echo attached to them or even lines themselves and in many cases the fuel to power the crews to get to their worksites. it won't work because in many cases

, if you're a state like maryland, california or new york, you can keep obamacare exactly as it is under this bill. but if you're a state like texas, floridaarizona, who hates the way obamacare is increased premiums and decreased your choices, you know, you now have the chance to take that money spend it as you want and waive a lot of the regulations that have harmed a lot of patients and consumerer, particularly, millennials >> you talk about what should be a win for some and a win for others, where does it stand right now? i guess for congress? we still are looking for on bore with this just yet >> i would say this is the last best chance they really have. we have ten days before september 30th. that is a window of opportunity where republicans can pass this without filibuster. they can pass it were a simple majority. after that, this is probably the last chance they will have at least until the end of trump's first term, if ever. >> we saw right after the push over the summer failed that both sides, because democrats, there are a number of democrats that said we have to fix the system regardless. there was a talk about some sort of bipa

it is just not fair, however, states like him new hampshire or nevada or texas, or florida, need to subsidize places like new york and california, and i say this, by the way, knowing i personally as a new yorker, will be penalized in this kind of environment but it is not fair for all those folks in texas or new hampshire to have to subsidize us. i love this quote. warren buffett once said, i will share this with you, quote, it is only when the tide goes out do you discover who has been swimming naked. in other words, if we have a an environment, everyone, where you can no longer deduct your state and local taxes, that means those states that have very onerous taxation, they will be exposed. joining me right now republican congressman from minnesota, a state that has a lot of taxes, high income taxes, he is a member of the house ways and means committee, representative eric paulsen. representative, good to have you here. where do you come out on this? just to back up for a second, to explain to the viewer, you come from a state where you have high income tax, anywhere from five to nearly 10%.

the president waived with respect to puerto rico, 100% of the match, more generous than for texas or florida. a huge capital injection will occur in two days. the resources are there and they will be taxed and what is -- those resources will eventually be tapped and what is happening now, if you have to do damage assessed once. but you cannot do damage assessments until you do the humanitarian missions, helping people who are trapped in their homes, people who need critical medical care, diesel, water. and that mission is happening right now. you have a surge of manpower to get people relief and you have afterwards time to do damage assessment. and so, we're going to be waiting for the administration to collect all of that damage assessment data. clearly because harvey was earlier and irma was earlier we are getting better damage assessment from florida and texas. we still have to get it from puerto rico, and i believe -- i assume that it is in that we october, will get a request from the administration and quickly act on that request because we have to get help to people who need it. and so

job tax cuts make it easier and cheaper to operate whether you're a business or a corporation if you're in texas or florida you absolutely would like more employers more opportunities for goods and services at a lower price that's easy so more and more employers. more opportunity how are we going to fund anything if we're just not going to pay taxes is that what are you recommending here i mean corporate taxes are an all time low if they're at an all time low that's why we're not ready to raise that twenty five or thirty five percent they pay effectively ten to fifteen percent and you want to add on a lower and i want to add more band-aids on top because that's going to what make them pay more and know that way is that what we did in one thousand nine hundred six was we actually removed all of these layers of tax reform and corporations actually started paying taxes but there's a reason there's recent research done by corporations i think actually some of the wealthiest corporations in the world paid zero that he says he adding more and more band-aids to the bills and it gives them more rare outs to not pa

telecommunications lost and the final component that puerto rico different to florida or texas reallyes that they can actually drive to there and give quick aid. we need to pfly assets here and bring them by boat. that's been the bottle neck. >> governor, what would you say to your fellow americans that are watching you this morning? what can they do that would help you and the people that you represent on the island the most? >> well, first of all, joe, recognize that we are american citizens and that we are proud american citizens. puerto ricans have been serving the armed forces at a higher per capita rate than almost any state in the nation for the past 50 years. as recent as when harvey hit texas, we sent rescue teams over to texas. when irma hit the islands, puerto rico became the support base, and we supported the shelter of about 4,000 u.s. citizens that didn't have food, a place to stay. we rescued them, got them over here to puerto rico, and established a path forward to their original destination, so we're very proud, and what we are seeing right now is the biggest event of

stuart: who will insure any property in florida or south texas against floods? is going to do that in the future? >> most of it has been done taxpayer subsidy flood insurance programs. we have problems there, stuart, bluntly, because those programs don't price insurance appropriately. we're essentially subsidizing people to put property at risk in flood zones. we see this movie again and you again. sorry? stuart: as you say those flood insurance programs are not funded, they're not costed out accurately. >> right. stuart: they don't take into account the real risk of floods in those areas. will we in the future, because we'll get bitten with that right now? >> you know, one would hope that this would be a wake-up call, that we would see the congress say okay, we have to price this stuff appropriately and stop telling people to build things in places where they're doomed to get destroyed. we've never seen those real reforms stick. a couple years back there was a bill made fairly substantial changes to the national flood insurance program. it lasted one year. did

if you think that just because you don't live in texas or florida or puerto rico that they won't affect you. think again. not just gasoline prices or choose in the concerts that you wear. they are spiking as we speak. we are all going to pay higher prices. on how you might make up for that problem with perhaps a stock purchase that they will move the most. time's up, insufficient we're on prenatal care.es. and administrative paperwork... your days of drowning people are numbered. same goes for you, budget overruns. and rising costs, wipe that smile off your face. we're coming for you, too. for those who won't rest until the world is healthier, neither will we. optum. how well gets done. i'm vern, the orange money retirement rabbit, from voya. i'm the money you save for retirement. who's he? he's green money, for spending today. makes it easy to tell you apart. that, and i am better looking. i heard that. when it's time to get organized for retirement, it's time to get voya. >> the fallout from hurricane harvey and now irma hitting hard. they trade as frozen or cheese. cotton prices affe

things, the president can't do all of that much, these are really, the president is going to florida or to texasy are television moments and reassurances to the state and to the country that he's active and present, but they're not all that much more than that. >> well, also a chance for him to see devastation firsthand and for him to show support for first responders, for him to have the moment that is we saw with those kids and interact with people as well. thank you very much for insights, a lot of more political reporting. now we have the deal on hurricane harvey relief, we will see if there's going to be a deal for hurricane irma relief coming up. thanks so much. liz. liz: although irma's track has shifted towards the west, there's still plenty of concern in southeast florida. after the break, we will speak with mayor of miami keys as heavy winds begin to lash the city. ♪ if you have bad breath and your mouth lacks moisture, you may suffer from dry mouth. try biotène®, the #1 dentist recommended dry mouth brand. it's the only leading brand clinically proven to soothe, moisturize, and freshe

why would texas, florida or other states drop people from health insurance? >> because it's a fact.nows it's a fact. the reason the cbo -- the reason they'll try to act among any other reasons on this before the cbo comes out with the full report, which as you said would include coverage, is because they know that it is going to be really bad news for the bill. what they learned from this last debacle on trump care was not that you should cover more people or be more generous and more compassionate, you should employ for secrecy. they'll try to move faster through the process to get this done. folks don't want this. they should take the hint. nobody is excited about this bill. the vast majority of americans and people influential in the healthcare space, insurance, all sorts of folks are stepping forward and saying this is a bad idea. chris christie, who i'm pretty sure at this point would do just about anything that president trump asked him to do said today he is against this bill. nobody likes this bill. they should just take the hint and not do this. >> when you say nobody wants

unlike texas or florida, they don't carry a lot of weight. they will need snag moves through the senate and the house. there is concern that it will be forgotten and it won't be on the federal left. they have resources down there now. they will need more amounts of everything and most notably money. this is where you give at ton of credit to layla. it's tough to visualize until we see pictures. we are listening about it, but not seeing how terrible it is. you can see everything in houston and see everything going on in the keys. you can tell this morning senator mitch mcconnell is on the floor. speaker ryan meeting with puerto rico. democratic leader chuck schumer. people are starting to get their heads around the magnitude of this and that is extremely important because the needs are large and going to be at the forefront of how this place recovers for the next month. >> you have so many americans with family and friends including myself that they have not even heard from. it's very scary. >> i'm told the secretary with us momentarily watch

. >> it is undeniably harder to get supplies to puerto rico than it is to texas or to florida. but that's not an excuse. the federal government has ships. the federal government has planes. there's a way to get this done. >> reporter: florida senator marco rubio, whose constituency includes more than 1 million puerto ricans, visited earlier this week. >> our response needs to be above and beyond what we would ordinarily do in an event like this. i hope we don't see katrina-like images. >> reporter: celebrities making public plea forth more help. puerto rican stars recording videos in support of their beloved island. >> the devastation is beyond belief. >> puerto rico needs your help and i'm calling on everyone to support and donate. >> $1 that you give is $1 that will get to the victims. >> there's a lot that needs to be done the next few months. >> reporter: a challenge some businesses are already taking on. last week my colleague rob marciano met maria ortiz, a caregiver at a hard-hit nursing home. >> we can't let them die. we need help, all the help we can get. >> reporter:

is it deals with the educational impact of hurricanes on our population, whether they be in texas, florida, or whether they be in puerto rico. and i think it's important as the presiding officer knows having been to puerto rico recently that we deal with all of these hurricanes and their aftermath in a similar and combined and joint fashion. this legislation is called the hurricanes harvey, irma, and maria education relief act of 2017, and it has three vital hurricane relief-related purposes. first it provides the secretary of education with the authority to waive federal matching requirements for two campus-based aid programs under the higher education act. first, the supplemental education opportunity grant program, secondly, the federal work study program. notably in my state 18 campuses of higher education will be eligible for the waiver of federal matching requirements. if not passed before september 30, which is if i'm not mistaken saturday, these matching funds will no longer being available. so this is a rare window of opportunity for us. as i said, this waiver authority and relief was

in the mainland, red cross and fema are set up with food and water, more food and water than texas or floridato me but that first 72 hours there's a lot of chaos, puerto rico will be very different. this is an entire country that has no power. when you start thinking about drill down to the essentials, diabetics with insulin needs to be refrigerated. people in medication that has to be refrigerated, they have no power. half of this country is probably sleeping out in the open and their sleeping and toxic water because it's mixed with sewage and garbage and all those things that do that. we are going to hop on a plane here this weekend and had down there with a group -- these guys are called the flip-flop flotilla and they are all former special service guys, former law officers who have reached out to be a part of this and we are excited to get down there and try and make a difference. >> tucker: that's amazing. we have a picture up right next to you of the c-130 i think, is that the aircraft you're taking? >> that's one of the jets that's going down. if the issue now is cost. it's about $10,

you really don't see us sending crews as far as florida or to texas like we've seen recently >> and i might be without those workers if it's much longer than usual, given the scope of the outages that we've heard the utilities talk about >> yeah. one of the things i think that customers have to be aware of is that a lot of these customers will come back quickly florida power and light, duke florida, georgia power, all great companies that have been doing the right things, hardening their systems. but as you go through the restoration process, there's a handful of these customers on circuits where you'll literally be rebuilding the circuit. so it's going to take more than days, it may be into weeks for some of the customers to come back for the people on the ground there, they'll be in the best place to answer those questions. >> and, you know, we may have an even busier slate of storms coming through i mean, we obviously don't know. but is this the kind of thing where you even would look ahead to say what the needs might be down the road if, in fact, we have more landfalls? >> well, i

this week, trump and this comment itself, and trump wouldn't say we have to decide to rebuild texas or floridad they seem to not understand puerto rico is part of america and they need to treat it that way. and the second thing, i do think the dhs secretary's quote, this is a good news story, and the full statement is complicating, and that full phrase something katrina-style-comments. that's the kind of comment that can come news for days and define the administration's response. they have been too slow to response and overly sensitive and good news story phrase should not have been used at all. >> and i was going to say, that's a heck of a job brownie comment of the storm. >> she will have a chance to correct that, but she may be feeling pressure from the white house as well because there seems to be one response from washington as we are doing a great job, so who knows where the pressure is coming from. >>> nobody is taking care of us. one sick woman's plea. sanjay gupta is next. there are limits to the amount of fossil fuels that we can burn. since 1925, we have depended on diesel generato
