a hated story weeks ago about a proposal to limit edgewood school borrowing that senator lamar alexanderas proposed to .30,000 annually as we talked about earlier, the cost can be quite high. you can borrow up to $80,000 per year. not surprisingly, some colleges do not like that idea. the like to borrow up to cost of attendance, and do not want to see that changed. that is not surprising that schools wants to limit the amount of -- that they do not want to with the amount of borrowing for graduate students. there are limits for undergrads. host: mississippi, gary is waiting. you are on washington journal. caller: good morning. about, is right in the middle of this, i had got disabled. they forgive the loan after a certain time. but it i went on disability, i want a job. surely there is a job somewhere in the united states, even if it is government or private. it seems like we could go together. everybody could be on the same talking topics and get the college tuition down if you can get more people paying their student loan. at the same time, you would have the same problem with the hous

lamar alexander of tennessee. that's roger wicker, mississippi. this is john barrasso of wyoming.e role of senator in a movie perhaps you'd cast one of those guys. now i'm going to show you a photo of a guy who wants to be a u.s. senator. this is jon fetterman. he's the 6'8" tattooed mayor of braddock, pennsylvania, a town of less than three people -- 30,000 people. 10 miles from pittsburgh. fetterman didn't grow up in braddock. he ended up there after earning a master's degree in public policy from harvard and going on to run a g.e.d. program for braddock's underprivileged youth. braddock is a struggling steel town and has been for decades. it's lost nearly 90% of its population since the middle of the last century and nearly 40% of braddock's residents live below the poverty line. fetterman has served as mayor since 2005. it's a role limited in official powers. but fetterman has been trying to build the community back up from encouraging development to starting a non-profit to save properties. his devotion to the town is literally written on his body. on one arm fetterman has ta

but i read an insightful quote the other day from my good friend, senator lamar alexander. lamar said if we had a shutdown every time we had a dispute over a contentious issue, the government would never open. that, i think, is a very wise observation. we do have many differences, but most importantly we must have the broader national interest in mind. the clock is ticking. funding runs out in just a few days. we need a clean continuing resolution, and we need it now. a temporary funding bill just to keep the lights on. have we forgotten what happened two years ago? the people of my home state of new mexico, they have not forgotten. we were badly hurt by the shutdown then and we would be badly hurt by a shutdown now. in los alamos, in sandia, our two d.o.e. labs are working on modernizing aging nuclear weapons systems to keep them safe and secure. it is foolish to cause unnecessary disruption to projects of this significance, where there is no margin for error. each of these labs employs thousands of people. many of them scientists at the top of their field. why would we thr

i see that another supporter of lwcf, the senator tennessee, senator lamar alexander, has joined us today for this colloquy. and i'm glad to have you here, senator, and look forward to your comments about lwcf. mr. alexander: mr. president? the presiding officer: the senator tennessee. mr. alexander: thank you, mr. president. i salute senator daines. since his arrival in the senate, he has been a great fighter for the great american outdoors. anhe and i were talking not long ago about his next hunting trip. the one thing that unites us on botsides of the aisle and in america is this country's heritage. epengland has its history and we have the great american outdoors. one of the best ideas that we have had in the united states government to support, protect, conserve the great american outdoors for the benefit of all americans is the land and water conservation fund. it was first proposed in the 1960's by the commission headed by lawrence rockefeller, and it was a part of a commission that recommended a number of conservation issues. but the idea was very simple. it was to say, when we ha

september 1995, lamar alexander was the flavor at that moment. 1999 was appointed time we were talkingabout steve forbes and all of the money he was bringing to the race. 2003 was a guy named howard dean. anyway, you get my point. are we over analyzing trump and sanders? >> will let me start with trump and then we will move to sanders. for trump, there is something he is doing. i agree with what everybody said that it's different. it's not just that he's able to set the agenda by playing by different set of rules. it is fascinating to watch the other candidates around him. it's like watching little kids on a playground in the kit comes in and starts doing something differently and winning. kate ball, whenever and all the kids that have been playing for a long time say it's not fair, you are not playing by the rules. we had rules and you are not playing on. >> it was july. jeb bush said that in july. so he has been a master of that. there's also something i've never seen before and people like me that he had a feeling he can't get any further. i don't remember, maybe you guys do come a
