larsen: thank you. i am pleased to speak in support of h.r. 7659, the coast guard authorization act of 2024. this bipartisan legislation re-authorizes funding for the u.s. coast guard for fiscal years 2025 and 2026, and updates coast guard programs and policies. this bill is a result of bipartisan negotiations between chair graves, chair webster, myself and ranking member carbajal, and includes numerous contributions from members on and off the committee. this bill is this bill is the latest example of bills thriving on the transportation and infrastructure committee. coast guard operational readiness is at risk. lack of investment led to $3 billion infrastructure backlog, lack of ice breaking capacity in arctic and great lakes and reduced several missions such as marine safety. this bill begins to address the shortfall by authorizing $14.78 billion for the coast guard for 2025. these increases over current levels will give funding to execute its mission and have a basic standard of living. this bill au

thank you ranking member larsen for your faith in me it is with a heavy heart that i take on the role of a ranking member of the subcommittee. congressman donald payne junior was not just a colleague but a cherished friend whose legacy i am dedicated to honoring and advancing. his exemplary leadership on the railroad subcommittee sets a standard of excellence that i am committed to upholding and building upon. for many years we were soldiers in the army to uplift black men and boys whether that be trayvon martin, or fighting for health disparities among black men and boys. he fought the good fight to bring back our girls from africa. i sat next to him in committee for years and we were table mates every year at the congressional black caucus he shared many memories with me. he was so proud to be the father of triplets and to let me know he married a florida girl. i will miss him and i am committed to honoring his legacy and continuing his work on this committee. as we all know, part of this mission was to ensure the safety of all people. he had a goal of never wanting to miss a boat r

in fact, both congressman larsen and i represent coastal districts.ve got to get good, we've got to get good at living in sustainably living in coastal areas. one of the problems with being able to implement it, is the arduous process to go through regulatory. we've got to have a more dynamic process. i'm going to say something again that i said earlier. we've got to have project development delivery process that reflects the urgency of the projects were working on. number two is that you've got uncertainty with storm intensity, with storm frequency, with sea rise and all of these other factors. one of the things we've got to do is make sure we're developing project solutions adaptation resilient solutions that do best in sort of transcended through those brackets of uncertainty for these things that we can't totally predictable nail down with an appropriate margin of error. there wasted that but the most important thing you got to incentivize resilience for adaptation by having a regular structure. >> another thing on the funding site is a couple of

senate floor for helping to negotiate this through the senate commerce committee and ranking member larsen, from my state, for their participation and dedication to producing this bicameral, bipartisan legislation and certainly, certainly want to thank senators duckworth and moran who chair the subcommittee on the aviation area for their important contributions to this legislation. i also want to thank president biden, the secretary, administrator would occur for helping us on all of the input as we move forward on this legislation and certainly want to thank senator schumer and thune and senator duckworth and cinema who helped negotiate the key provisions of this as it relates to pilot safety and training and i definitely, definitely, definitely want to thank the very hard work of our committee majority staff and the committee, minority staff, for working diligently on this important legislation. i can't tell you how important it is at this point in time for us to show that we are paying attention to these issues. over the last 12 months, several incidences including a door plug blowout,

>> ranking member larsen, thank you for that question. we certainly want to get ahead of the administration. right now we have been able to use the project funds as opening statement indicated. the dredging work that we plan to do this year will still need to be done. the emergency reprogramming, most of that money so where does that money come from. this happens when it was a very favorable environment. we were able to go back to those funds. a good example of what some of that might be. a contractor might put a claim on a project or request for equitable adjustment. a few years later those claims have been adjudicated. if we did not have to pay that request we would un-obligate those funds. >> mr. chairman, if i can indulge for a moment i want to let the chair know. i will need to absorb that report and just the data point of the committee. the skagit river bridge collapsed in 2013. that cost a total of $19 million . it took us two years to recover that. we should not be waiting. it will have to take place first. i will be dead by the t

larsen, for five minutes. mr. larsen: thank you -- mr. larson: thank you, mr. speaker. i rise today to address the body to discussion the nation's number one anti-poverty program for the elderly and the nation's number one anti-poverty program for children. that's social security. mr. speaker, i know, you know this, but can you imagine that congress hasn't made an adjustment to social security in more than 53 years. richard nixon was president of the united states, the last time that congress enhanced benefits for the country. imagine, mr. speaker, i'm sure for people in our audience, that 10,000 baby boomers a day become eligible for social security. and as you know, the fund is about to be cut by 20% in two ways. if congress does nothing by 2034, according to the latest report, it will be cut 20%. so basically the nation's number one anti-poverty program for the elderly will be cut by 20% if congress does nothing. and it hasn't done anything in more than 50 years. now, there are some proposals, including social security 2100, that would extend and pay for this. and th

that our guests today are daria dontsova, tatyana kurtukova, yuri baturin, svetlana feadolo and tuta larsen this bright holiday of easter, i wish you all the best and good things, prosperity to you and your families, christ is risen, truly risen. what significance does easter have for you personally? yuri, shall we start with you? well, first of all, family, traditions that were laid were still mine. there ancestors, grandfathers, grandmothers, because i was always guided by exactly how they always did it, how they are some kind of ritual that is passed on from generation to generation, and when my grandmother baked easter cakes, and my grandmother baked easter cakes, you won’t believe it, in shell casings, but from then on it was magic for me, my grandfather cut them off, put everything away, so my grandmother and we baked in the oven, in the village hut we baked in the oven, so and... me all the time they drove me away so that i, as they say, would not bite them ahead of time, because my grandmother always turned out to have such a tasty, crispy top that she would eat it later, and the wo

i also want to thank chairs graves and webster and ranking members larsen and carbajal for their workn passing coast guard authorization out of committee and bringing it to the floor last night for a successful vote. again, i urge my colleagues in the senate to quickly craft their version of the bill and make sure that we codify these protections for outstanding young cadets who are going to be the future leaders of the coast guard for decades and decades to come. and with that i yield back. the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman yields. the chair recognizes the gentleman from iowa, mr. feenstra, for five minutes. mr. feenstra: thank you, mr. speaker. this week is national police week. it's time to recognize and thank our police and law enforcement officers for risking their lives and protecting our families. these heroes work long hours and make incredible sacrifices to our communities, they make our communities safe. never seeking recognition or praise in what they do. we cannot thank them enough for their service to our country. today we also honor those who have made the ultimate

and we have a representative rick larsen the ranking member of the house committee on transportationructure but i'm very excited to hear from these cheap members of congress to continue to work together to improve our infrastructure system. like congress hasfr passed they are now tirelessly working to ensure implementation of the ii ja to make sure it is a success. however as outline and bridging the gap economic report republished yesterday hope everyone was able to see that. cannot start with ii ja or other recent infrastructure packages. continue to act on the federal investment infrastructure investment after the expiration of ii ja will protect u.s. industries from m losing more tn $1 trillion in economic output over the next decade. help to avoid more than $600 billion in lost gdp. it also gives the american families an additional 550 billion in disposable income. i know i could use that, don't know about you guys. save 237,000 american jobs over the same time. each of our panel is here today has the nation on the right path for improving critical infrastructure but our work is

they took the lead through larsen, bruun larsen and they were they were turned around in the end by bye and dusted. the definition of definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different result. it's a horrible cliche, but it's certainly, a apt in burnley's case because they just keep trying to play out from the back martin. and they keep getting done time and time and time again throughout the season. and you know what a lot of top clubs will be looking at vincent company given what he did as a manager last season. but they're looking at him this season and say okay, he's got principles and he sticks to what he believes in. but one of the key elements of any management, in any job is that you show adaptability from time to time. they simply weren't good enough and they gave away. so many goals and eventually it tells. and that's why they've gone down with with two games to spare. luton, meanwhile, made a really good fist of it, i'd say over the course of the season as well. they went one up. yeah, six minutes. they took, they took the lead a goo

part of what gotjacob bruun larsen the opening goal against tottenham. sank the clarets. the final whistle blows on burnley�*s premier league season. they are relegated. they will hope the road back starts here. patrick geary, bbc news. those results helped nottingham forest who look like they'll be spending another season in the premier league despite losing themselves. a point against chelsea would have guaranteed them safety and they looked to be heading for at least that when callum hudson odoi put them 2—1 up at the city ground. but the visitors came storming back to win 3—2, nicolas jackson with chelsea's winner to keep their hopes of european qualification alive. forest remain three points clear of luton with one game to go and a far better goal difference. at the other end of table, manchester city know if they win their final two games of the season, they will be premier league champions for a record fourth time in a row. that's after a very comfortable 4—0 win in the sunshine at fulham. josko gvardiol scoring twice. it's a result that helped th
