senator heidi heitkamp participated. this is her caption -- not only forget tohe intern, wear a suit again, but he spit in my copy twice this money. another saying, no leaks, this is how we know we are a real family here. that is referring to the story about kevin mccarthy joking that president trump was being paid by vladimir putin. chuck schumer had a response saying, that escalated quickly, referring to how senator ben sass' -- sasse's tweet went viral. a new talk, a democrat, good morning. >> my opinion on president trump businessman, his unpredictability for the u.s. is and what we need. is tooust -- he unpredictable and it is like a power trip. i think you should be impeached, the sooner the better because he is in good for the u.s. to leave todayut for a nine day trip overseas, his first. what are your concerns? do you have any with him representing the united states and negotiating with other world leaders? caller: you cannot believe anything he says. he says one thing and does something else. he is a liar. incom

. >> democratic senator heidi heitkamp and cindy mccain talk about human trafficking, an event held at new york university at their washington d.c. campus. this is just over an hour. >> i thank you two for hosting this very important discussion today. thank you senator, and mrs. mccain for coming to join us to talk about human trafficking. i've worked on human trafficking for 20 years now as a lawyer and academic. i've witnessed tremendous changes in the field where much of early anti-trafbing efforts focused entirely on women and girls and to the sex sector, we have finally come to understand traffic as a phenomenon that affects men, women and children in a wide range of sectors that affect our daily lives. we recognize trafficking can take place on farms that produce the food we eat and in the factories, along the supply chains that produce the clothes we wear and it can take place in traffic home, and even in our public schools in the deceptive and abuse of teachers abroad. as our understanding of the depth has evolved so has our efforts. in the countries from which trafficked peopl

i'm now leading this continuation of this program with heidi heitkamp of north dakota and susan collins and some other republicans. at a medicalucated school in iowa or minnesota and you do your residency and you want to stay here for a few years, you can do that as long as you go to a rural or underserved area. it is keeping a lot of the medical workers going in our hospitals. when we talk about immigration reform, people need to understand that it matters in our states where there's act workers and hospital workers. another corner -- strong and sturdy infrastructure. i know how importuned this is in my state because i just lived eight miles away from that bridge that collapsed especially in the middle of a summer day. an eight lane interstate highway should not just fall down in america. we rebuilt that bridge in 13 months. what about the other bridges or the charles city bridge? that partially collapsed last month here in iowa. what about the energy grid that hasn't been updated since the 1950's? what about broadband? we had a doctor in northern would look at x-rays at the hospital.

>> first of all you see a number of people like heidi heitkamp in north dakota, tammy baldwin in wisconsin who are able, despite their states voting differently in the presidential election, unable to navigate it. i think one of the things that we do is come first of all, not be afraid to go anywhere or talk of an issue with our constituents. we dealt with the people behind. i actually visit all 87 counties in minnesota every single year i am on my 12th you pick up got to the point where in some counties i've been visiting places just recently calledt' insect inferno. let's kill bedbugs with heat.ne that was one of the businesses. i use that an example because her kind of out of place, they did make me go inside a semi-that that let's kill bedbugs with heat on the outside, then they turned up the heat but only halfway come with a put the and things. it reminded me of what actually a republican candidate for president who didn't make it wants it, you go not just words comfortable but where it is uncomfortable. i think a lot of what we need to do in the democratic party is make sure we are r

heidi heitkamp will join senator john mccains wife cindy mccain in the discussion just efforts to address human trafficking. the event is held live from new york university in washington, d.c., center at 6:30 p.m. eastern. you can can watch it on c-span. >> sunday night on "after words" physician and journalist elizabeth rosenthal examines the business side of healthcare in her book and american sickness, how healthcare became big business and how you can take it back. >> she is interviewed by dr. david blumenthal, president of the commonwealth fund. >> i was wondering if your book gave any thoughts about whether health care is a free market, whether we can solve our problem in healthcare through free market forces. >> i think what we've seen is the answer is probably not. the beginning of the book i put a somewhat tongue-in-cheek list of the economic rules of the dysfunctional healthcare market where if you see healthcare as purely a business proposition, that the market will solve, you get to crazy places like a lifetime of treatment is preferable to a chore. i am not saying for a secon

you may get a couple, joe mansion may come out or heidi heitkamp, someone up for reelection in the redhat made it clear they need far left democrats to stop getting on them every time they say they're willing to meet with republicans or why it's a problem to have a conversation with neil gorsuch. tracy chuck schumer backing anything there? i don't think so. the messaging from democrats, they're usually good messengers but they been overwhelmingly fantastic. they walked into a few traps, i think the party on the lawn will come back in campaign ads. even if it does get kicked down to the state, people are still worried about that. we know on a state level there are things like when you are federally protected to choose to have an abortion but on the state level, a woman in texas doesn't have the same rights as a woman in new york. people are aware of that and they know it could happen with their healthcare. harris: isn't that an opportunity evan, for the idea of across the state line and being able to buy insurance outside your state? that's where we could hear this in the next phase. i'

and i'm leaving the continuation of this program with heidi heitkamp and others. if you are educated at his school and you want to stay here for a few years, you can do that as long as you go to a rural or underserved area. and it is keeping alive the medical workers going in our hospitals. okay? so when we talk about immigration reform people need to understand that it matters. in our state. whether it is hospital workers or other areas. third,, infrastructure. i know how important this is a mistake because i live eight blocks away from the i-35 bridge that collapsed in the middle of the summer day. as i said that day, a bridge just should not fall down the middle of america. especially not in an eight lane interstate highway.which is one of the most heavily traveled bridges in our state. not a bridge that my family drives over every day in the middle of rush hour. do you know what we did? we rebuilt that bridge. five persons were financing in 13 months. but what about the other bridges? what about the bridge a partially collapsed last month in iowa.what about th

north dakota senator heidi heitkamp will join the wife of john mccain for a discussion on u.s. efforts to address human trafficking. cindy mccain and senator heitkamp will be speaking at new york university's washington, d.c. center. >> c-span, where history unfolds daily. in 1970 nine, c-span was created as a public service by america's cable television companies and is brought to you today by your cable or satellite provider. -- in 1979. medusaournalists with ta

privilege today of moderating a discussion with two of the leading voices in the movement, senator heidi heitkamp and senator mccain. the format for today i will briefly introduce the speakers and then spend about 30 minutes in discussion prompted by a series of questions i prepared in advance and shared with the speakers and then we will open up to questions from the audience after which we will conclude with closing statemen statements. so, to introduce senator heitkamp, the first female senator elected from north dakota in her first term has quickly become a leader among her colleagues in the fight against human trafficking bursts sounding the alarm on human trafficking as a law-enforcement issue and a senate committee on homeland security and governmental affairs and 2013 where she now serves as the ranking member on the subcommittee on regulatory affairs and federal management. federal management. she cosponsored and helped pass the justice for victims of the human trafficking act president obama signed into law which helped to secure a strict punishments for traffickers and including the bi

couple of the red state democrats where obamacare was unpopular, still is unpopular, joe manchin, heidi heitkamp, who have to run in 2018, watch donald trump, he really wants legislation, he really wants democratic votes on something. he thinks that is important. so watch him put in those personal calls or potential pressure to a senate democrat if they can craft something that looks more moderate. i wouldn't rule it out. i think most likely scenario is that democrats stay unified like they did against neil gorsuch but there is some potential because there are a lot of moderate republicans who will be vulnerable on this. in the same way there are moderate democrats in red states who could be vulnerable. >> you could be very right. we will play this clip back when that happens in a matter of months. thank you all. coming up on cnn, how will trumpcare change health care? some lawmakers admit they didn't even read the bill. we will break down how it could change your insurance and the president hitting the road for a weekend away from the white house, saying he will save the country some money by w
