jayapal: so with the president's blanket refusal to honor subpoenas, to allow witnesses to testify, he has taken this to a completely new phase. and i think as i watched attorney germ barr's performance yesterday in the senate, there were so many questions that continue to arise about whether the attorney general is using his position to be the personal counsel for the president. my line of questioning today, had i had the opportunity would have been around ongoing attempts at obstruction of justice. this is not just something that is in the past, but the president is continuing to tweet and say things that imply that if somebody refuses to tell the truth or speaks against him, that there will be consequences to pay. there are numerous things that we have the responsibility and obligation to investigate and to oversee. and i think we are truly in a new phase of this entire situation that is deeply, deeply destructive to the constitution and to the foundations of our democracy. ms. jackson lee: i think what the house judiciary committee and my colleagues and chairman nadler did today wa

congresswoman jayapal, thank you.egy but my guess is this is a day-to-day situation. >> it's constantly changing for sure. >> thank you so much. >> thank you, dana. >> thank you. remember that plan to put harriet tubman on $to bill. the trump administration has put that on the back burner until he leaves office. what is exactly behind the delay? when you start with a better that's no way to treat a dog... ...you can do no wrong. where did you learn that? the internet... yeah? mmm! with no artificial preservatives or added nitrates or nitrites, it's all for the love of hot dogs. do you want ready to wear clothing without all the hassle? you can, with bounce dryer sheets. we dried one shirt without bounce, and an identical shirt using bounce. the bounce shirt has fewer wrinkles, less static, and more softness and freshness. bounce out wrinkles, bounce out static. i've always been i'm still going for my best... even though i live with a higher risk of stroke due to afib not caused by a heart valve problem. so if there's

jayapal: begging for help. i think about the children, the parent us talked to, some of the reunify quation saw when i led that trip -- reunifications we saw when i led that trip to the border. thinking about these parents who have to experience their children not wanting to come to them. representative schakowsky talked about one mom we met who had -- who was reunited with her 8-year-old daughter, the daughter had been told that the mother had abandoned her. and for month she is thought that the mother had abandoned her and she was going to go into a shelter. or foster home. because her mother had abandoned her. so you can imagine when the mother came to be reunited with the child, the mother was so happy that she finally was getting to see her child, the child did not want to go to her mother. she didn't want to go to her mother. and it took some time for them to actually be reunited and for the mother to say no, i did not abandon you. but if you're a child, an -year-old child, how do you understand the e-- h

washingtons congressmember pramila jayapal. >> it is a polititical stunt. guess the president is trying thenergize his base for 2020 election. this plan does not havave any future of passing. it might have a chance in the senate, but i doubt it, not even republicans support this plan. it also democrats clearly reject it for the same reasons why pramil was mentioninga, it does not contain a solution for the 11 million people who are dreamers or daca recipients. i think this is not going anywhere. juan: the new york times reported today "access to a government jet 24 hours a day, an office in the west wing, plus guaranteed weekends off for family time and an assurance of being made secretary of homeland security by november." those were among the list of 10 coconditions that kris kobach, former kansas secretary of state, has given to the white house if he is to become the administration's immigration czar, a job president trump has been looking to create a coordinate immigration policy across government agencies. your reaction, fernando, to the possibility of

this is washington state congressmember pramila jayapal. >> it does not include any protections for dreamers. it does not include any plan for the 11 million undocumented immigrants that need a path to citizenship. it undermines the family immigration system that has been the cornerstone of our country's immigration policy. amy: this comes as senator lindsey graham has introduced a bill that would deny people the right to seek asylum at the u.s.-mexico border, forcing them instead to take their claims to u.s.s. consulates in t their hoe countries, even if their lives are in danger. senator graham's bill would also increase the number of days that migrant children could be detained to 100, five times the current limit. we'll have more on immigration later r in the broadcast. the guardian is reporting a top iranian general recently met with iraqi militias in baghdad and told them to "prepare for proxy war with the united states." it came as the pentagon reportedly drew up a plan to send as many as 120,000 troops to the mididdle east to presidit trump decides to take military actition against i

it was pramila jayapal and she was asking about a single pair healthcare system and can respond to those? >> how much did we spend on healthcare in 2017? >> 3.5 trillion. >> and how does that $3.5 trillion, and that is annually, correct? >> that is 2017. so over 10 years. it would be 35 trillion and we will talk about that in the second. how does that which takes of 18% of our gdp compare to other pure developed countries? >> significantly higher. >> so the current system cost 3.5 chilly and it is expected cost 6 trillion by 2027 and most in the entire world by far and we have 29 million people without insurance, which you pointed out in your report and another 84 million who are underinsured almost 1/4 of the country, the richest country in the world, is unable to access healthcare. is a single-payer system capable of providing coverage for everyone and achieving universal healthcare? >> yes. a single-payer system could achieve universal healthcare. >> that is a yes. a single-payer system can achieve universal healthcare. >> those of the questions. what do you think? >> if you are willi

. >> this is congresswoman jayapal making your point of how much the party has shifted.ou. >> personally i do think that there should be a set of core democratic ideals that we all agree to and that you can't say you're a democrat if you're against immigrants, if you're against abortion, if you're against gay marriage and lbgtq rights, i'm not sure what it means to be a democrat if all of those things are true. hopefully there's not people that are like that, and if there are, then, you know, i think you'll see challenges, and you'll see many of us supporting those challengers. >> i think this is where the democratic base is right now. they are not even talking about protecting abortion rights. they are talking about expanding abortion rights. they are on the other extreme. i was in alabama a lot of them are getting conclude into the 2020 race just because of this issue. clearly something that's driving a lot of conversation and probably bringing a lot of people into the 2020 session. >> always a source of tension, but there used to be a much larger group when the elder

jayapal: thank you, madam speaker. i rise in strong support of my colleague, representative schrierer stronger child abuse and prevention treatment act which increases funding for child protection services. and i'm particularly proud we could reach bipartisan agreement on a top priority of mine in this bill which is ensuring that state plans of safe care for infants exposed to substances in utero do not unfarrell target pregnant women who need to remain on medication to stay healthy. prior to 2016, states developed lans for safe care that were subjected to illegal drugs. 2016, congress updated to the law to make sure people could get the care they need. but unfortunately, as an unintended consequence, some states are now referring all infants exposed to substances inutio to child protective services -- in utero to child protective services even though -- was r was used using a drug prescribed by a doctor. this is not only unjust but a waste of limited resources. untreated depression during pregnancy is linked to premat

jayapal. >> thank you so much, mr. chairman, for driving this conversation forward on single-payer health care and to the cbo for producing what i think is a very helpful document and guidance towards what that system should look like. as chairman yarmouth said in his statement, it's not a question of if. it's a question of when our country has single-payer health care, and i along with 109 c co-sponsors -- we just added one and we'll continue to add a couple more over the next several weeks -- have introduced a single-payer proposal called the medicare for all act of 2019. it had its first historic congressional hearing ever in the house of representatives in the rules committee. we look forward to doing that here. i understand i have bipartisan support for that hearing because i actually think that this is exactly the kind of proposal that does address many of the things that have been laid out in the cbo report. so, mr. hadley, according to the cbo report, how much did we spend on health care in 2017? >> $3.5 trilli
