as that is -- is attend the gsa? i am having a hard time putting my hands on its. is not in any of my materials. and somebody tell me what page it is on? >> we have included treasure island as part of the city -- for whatever reason, i don't know why, it was trimmed years ago into the city administrator family but carried separately as a budget item. it must be a charter issue or something. but adam's team worked for the entire treasure island budget. it is total revenue supported. there is a general fund dollars there. >> thank you, again. i just wanted him to speak because item three, we will be taking public comment on it anyway. thank you for your presentation. >> thank you. >> good to see you. ladies and gentlemen, we are done with questions. we'll be taking public comment on item three, six, and seven. if you would like to come on up. come to the podium and you will have two minutes. no? seeing none, -- are you coming for public comment? >> public comment is closed. okay. now you can come up. >> supervisors, i wanted to point out, in the past, when we had rec

i just -- you know, i worked for gsa for two years. you might consider me bias but i just want to add color to this. it's not an easy process. there's a lot of justification that goes into it. department heads just can't write down on a piece of paper what they need. it actually has to be approved and we have go go through dhr and through ken to make sure and jennifer to make sure that exactly a justified position. i just wanted to add that. thank you. >> that's a welcome addition. thank you. supervisor sheehy? >> sure. so first of all i guess i want to take strong exception to the bla's analysis of this position. this position is a position that has national stature. it's vital to a community that has been oppressed statewide, nationally and globally to have someone who actually performs at this level. the question isn't about the direct reports, it's about the ability to create policy that is absolutely novel, to take on institutional challenges and over turn them and change them in a sophisticated manner. now we could have individua

they were being currently held in a repository by the gsa which is part of the they believe it . the transition team told me they are considering taking legal action against mueller over this. it's a little bites the mind. it is something being considered by the president's transition team. it is all part of an effort tgo to put mueller back on his heels. >> how do people like emmet flood -- he's resct in conservative circles. how does he sort of l down and be a party to a smearpaign where they are suggesting te is trying to frame the president is ludicrous. >> that's one of the great mysteries. why would emmet flood take on this job. >> what is his answer? >> that so many people have failed in. >> it's a disgrace. what rudy said today is a disgrace. how does a man like emmet flood with a real reputation with respect from like george w. bus great job -- what e doing in the trumptese oesn't -- i don't know. and the thing that -- what i understand about sang -- i think i do understand -- he says he's being framed. the president doesol justpant e presidt has saidhat veryearly. so, i

to be negotiating the best price because i'm not hearing a yes. >> so we are now getting that at the gsa schedule. the fda is looking at all aspects to bring naloxone to over the counter and also to increase the generic competition. so that is our current strategy right now. we have seen the price go down by over 40%. >> i would hope so. it started at a dollar. it started at a dollar. and look at where we are right now. i think -- i think it's really outrageous what's happening and what people are having to spend and taxpayers having to spend. thank you, mr. chairman. >> i would just observe that the senator would never advise that the distinguished chairman emeritus of the agriculture committee to stop with regards to her -- >> thank you, mr. chairman. >> -- advice and consent on the committee. senator cassidy. >> thank you. thank you both for being here. mr. chairman, thank you. last week i was in lafayette, louisiana, announced our save your families community initiative and i would speak to folks back home and what i learned from them will be the basis of my questions for you. i spok

one of the elements that is unique to gsa's responsibility is to deal with the census. comes around every ten years. can someone talk to me about that strategy, outreach, what kind of planning areou doing? the only thing i hear about the census is about how president trump has not located money on a federal level to ensure we are able to do what we need to do on a local level. how are we preparing for the census? >> adrian will come up and speak. part of this is there is a million dollars this year and a million next year -- >> would that be enough? how much did we spend? >> i will let adrian speak about that. >> okay. at. [laughter] >> what is the safe answer to that? >> hi adrian. >> hello. in answer to your question, is that enough? you know, we just make it work. in the 2010 census, california had $2 million to distribute throughout the state. they spent 1 million on their complete count committee on the funding was used, spread around to 13 counties around the state with the highest hard to count populations in san francisco. san francisco is on the list of 50 citi

he's an inflammatory name when you see in things like the one controversy of the day, the fact that gsad over a lot of information from the transition team to mueller without a subpoena, without going back to the trump transition team to get permission. strzok was part of that. it's as though we are in such a world of investigation that there is no element that does not get caught up in this. >> shannon: also congress has been very busy with investigations but now they're going to be busy, at least the senate side, in august thanks to senate leader mitch mcconnell say they're going to be in session. here's the top republican and democrat of the senate talking about what they might be doing. >> why don't we get something done on the issue that numerous polls say is the number one priority of americans? health care. we democrats, our entire caucus, believes this previously on scheduled session time can be put to good use. >> we need to confirm more of the presidents team and judicial nominees. we need to take up a regular appropriation bills. we need to tackle legislative priorities like

. >> did you and chris wiley discussed the gsa terms of service and facebook privacy policy, and if so, when? maybe describe the substance of those discussions? >> my aunt was originally an academic at. i was using for my lab. when i started the relationship with gs oh, i have concerns about the commercial terms. the chris provided the assurance that i will be the lawyer and walk you through the process. at that point, i headed off the rains -- reins to him. then he sent me the terms assert that he wanted me to put in they have. >> did you discuss with him whether not the gsr terms of service in either way conflicted with the facebook privacy policy such as relating to the transfer of facebook data to third parties? >> i have no recollection of that conversation. >> i would direct to all three panelist year, this question. maybe you could just speak to the question of what specific steps that you believe that facebook still needs to take to ensure that its users data is not collected, used, or transferred without users informed consent? >> i would be happy to address that. i think the

. >> well, in terms of the housing crisis, it's really the last piece that's left, is really gsa reform. ten years later, they're still in conservatorship. that of course places taxpayers at additional risk. so i love the fact that many people are now starting to talk about how do we get them out, how do we put them on a playing field in a sket with potentially other private sector guarantors to create real competition and still have an appropriate guarantee so that we encourage capital in a market from foreign areas. all of that is an appropriate thing to do. but what we need to do is lesson the taxpayer exposure, increase, i think, private capital in the secondary market. i think that would help us out quite a bit. >> you bring up a great point. i know one of my colleagues has a great bill to see where reinsurance could come into play to the other thing we have to do obviously because this is such a big part of the american economy is you know, we have to make surehat we don't do things that cause a big shock to the system. the other point i would just take a moment to reenforce for f
