s preferred housing policies. now, predictably, proponents of the rule claim that this will be a collaborative process with local government officials in the driver's seat while the bureaucrats at h.u.d. merely provide support and guidance. but the ten-month track record of affh suggests that precisely the opposite will be true. in fact, i've already heard from the housing authority of salt lake county predicting that the costs of complying with affh will stretch their already-thin resources, add hundreds of hours of bureaucratic paperwork to their workloads, and eliminate their autonomy to determine the best ways to provide adequate low-cost housing to their communities. mr. president, the problem with h.u.d.'s new rule has nothing to do with the stated intentions behind it. in a press release announcing the finalization of affh, h.u.d. secretary hulian castro said, "unfortunately, too many americans find their dreams limited by where they come from and a zip code should never determine a child's future." close q

housing for seniors. this is an issue that receives attention. it is a great big problem in our country. recently i heard statistics that in florida 40% of cost of an affordable home goes to governmental costs. to permitting, impacting, et cetera. it's a real serious problem. they held a hearing on this issue this past march at the national association of home builders recently pointed out on a national level, government regulation is about 25% of the price of ana new single family home. they must work to bring more affordable home. they must also embrace permissive land use policies that encourage alternative housing structures for seniors such as accessory dwelling units, microunits and congregate homes. theseur policies must abe win-w for everyone preserving the integrity of naeighborhoods whie expanding affordable housing options. the bottom linevi is that we ne both. thent public and private sector to step up and recognize the need to help seniors age with options in their communities. finally, i wan

we know there may be additional forms for senior housing or homeless housing but a simpler registration would help. and i want to thank our community-based organizations and residents that worked hard to elevate this issue and here today. and i want to thank mission collaborative and chinatown commission center, and human rights commission, and meta, and veteran equity center. they were the ones that had alerted to us of inconsistencies in the process and the fact that these application forms are not translated. and finally the reason we brought this hearing forward today, not of anything that the city had done, but we learned that a new house unit that had come on line blocks away from city hall were turning down applicants that did not speak english as first language, and we sent members and saw resid t residents that could not speak english were sent to the back of the line. and we want to give the mayor's office a consistent standard, so that our developer and property communities administer these programs consistently. i want to first bring up the mayor's office of housing. i see m

it's why white house officials are being engaged with the house and the united states senate so congress can get its act together and get the bill to the president's desk. reporter: thanks. i asked yesterday about puerto rico in the bill that just passed. the minimum age requirement and it would allow a reduction in the minimum wage of puerto rico. to follow-up on that, why does the white house not fight harder to not have that be a part of the final package? especially this white house making such a big deal out of increasing the minimum wage. why not fight harder? mr. schultz: i just -- i don't think the bill passed, it was just introduced. given that it has not passed committee yet, there is still time for the provisions to come out. we would strongly urge members of the house of representatives and the united states senate to do that. josh laid out the scenario yesterday as an 18 or 19-year-old puerto rican making minimum wage. it does not seem to make much sense that they bear the brunt of poor fiscal decisions that were made by people they don't even know, and it also does not make

at blair house when harry truman was living at blair house. that was an attempt on the president's life. a little different situation in terms of how close people got here. so you still get the sense here that the secret service responded with an incredible amount of force and certainly heightened their level of response. important to note, president obama wasp not here at the time. he was awful golfing at joint base andrews, left about noon after having given a statement to the press about the zika virus. so how long we still see this going on, we don't know. but important to point out, you have a secret service agent there with a long shotgun, walking around, another couple of agents here with their automatic weapons out as well. so could be a while conversation as rod wheeler was saying if they're having to process this person who showed up with -- trying to get to his car and then try to get a search warrant for his car, have a bomb detection unit go up to it, robots, that can take an awfully long time. one thing you learn covering the whi

towers over my house. and i might understand, the resident guidelines goes against this [inaudible]. the second concern i have though, is that while i'm really concerned about community and the character of the neighborhood, i have the impression that the project sponsor is concerned with maximizing square footage and not about the neighborhood. i can't say whether this is true or not because i don't know but it just my impression from the interactions i've had. by first meeting about this project with him was well over two years ago and he and his architect presented the drawing to me and former owner of 501 was as gigantic three-story box that was like did not fit within the bernal heights special use stuff at all. but very clearly, these were vegan i put into this lot. and i was asked to sign a paper [inaudible]. it wasn't it was clear that might concerns as a neighbor of this property were not interesting. then i heard nothing about it until i saw the permits the application for the purpose i think in

he went into a community of dilapidated houses, crack houses and meth houses, bought those houses up, fixed them up and began to create a market for those houses. the kids that formed drugs and gangs on the streets became caddies at the new country club. they went to georgia state university on panther grants for kids on need. many were educated at east lake meadows and drew elementary. people don't associate golf courses and golf tournaments and country clubs with areas of poverty and no housing but east lake is such a place because they build a blend of section 8 housing and rental housing, mid-level housing, upper level housing, shopping centers and the like. they took the things the community didn't have and created a market for them to come. and they created a movement with warren buffett called purpose-built communities. the h.u.d. rule which i have read, which is the issue of discussion today on the floor, is a rule that portends gathering more information to try and find out ways we can end the lack of housing availability to certain americans by bringing in data and trying to

trump willing to compromise with the house speaker and the republican leadership in the house?now, i think there are a lot of things they already agree on. that's where the focus will start. they're certainly committed to defeats isis, cutting taxes for all americans. i think that's the starting place, to focus on the things they already agree on, which are vast and some of the biggest issues facing the country today. they're on the same page. so i think that's where they start and build and work from there. >> there is a bit of controversy swirling around mr. trump, and it thats to do with his taxes and whether he'll release them. he says he will after an audit. but history proves mr. trump may not. last week, he suggested to wolf blitzer, the irs could be out to get him. listen. >> i said to friends of mine, how often are you audited. >> do you think it's political? >> i would say yes. >> irs is doing this in. >> i don't know. >> mr. trump deflected the issue for years. you consider how you answered the question in 2011, when he was considering a white house run then. listen.
