it passed the legislature.ome people were quite surprised, because they had been voting on it so long, they did not think it was the last time, but it was. that is how they decided on lansing. james came from western new york. he became a land agent. he started working for a man who had a star in jackson. they said over 1000 people came to this spot, which was nothing. they had to figure out ways to sleep, what they would eat. he had a store. he got the supplies and sold them from there. the first thing they did was chopped down all the trees -- chop down all the trees. they were going through four boxes of a dozen axes each day to get rid of all of the wood. that left a bunch of stumps and marshy watery ground. really -- you get the idea it was this great little town. people were extremely excited about having the capital be here . when they heard it would be here in the woods, they would come here on their sleds and horses and watch the capital, in -- capital come in. tree that cut down a was hundreds of feet

they were on me in the legislature, the state legislature, so only except by 1917, 1918 county only woman elected to congress processors only one and when the referendum at the state level or the ratification it is only men making these decisions and so having male allies coming and we see some very brave male allies step up in my story and so yes men w were important. >> executive producer is the secretary of state, p hillary clinton. she read the book and found it a story we should know and that speaks to us today. if of the teams arrive at the buck and voting rights or women's rights or dark money of politics it all gets talked about and so she says let's bring this story to a wider audience and that is what we are doing. >> how do you react when she says that she wants to be involved in your bookmarks >> i was thrilled and she has been a wonderful and supportive partner. >> and the women's hour is now on thes paperback. here is tcheers to cover the grs to win the vote. thanks for your time. >> lovely to be with you. you can see what programs are available every weekend. weekend. watch

means only the legislature. now, fast forward to this year, a 5-4 conservative majority ruled, essentially, that the voters have no ability to challenge extreme partisan gerrymandering in court. but at the same time, the opinion -- written, this time majority opinion written by the chief justice -- seemed to suggest that other remedies like independent redistricting commissions provide they were ways to address -- alternative ways to address the problem of partisanship in redistricting. so could you please explain what's going on here? [laughter] have the court's conservatives changed their minds about redistricting? is it just window dressing or what? >> as one lives, one learns. so i think the chief learned that he was wrong in the arizona -- [laughter] [applause] >> so i want you to look at this crowd. they tell me this is 4,000 people, i'm not quite sure. next week you and i are going to another interview in little rock, arkansas, in a venue that holds 18,000 people. and not only are all the tickets gone, th

some of those means legislature.o me that the state had made the people the legislature for this purpose. to give the deciding voice to we the people. and after that case other states had referendum. >> so the dissent was written by chief justice h roberts he argued very vigorously that the legislature is part of the legislature now fast for this year that the voters have no ability to challenge them in court. >> at the same time the majority opinion written by the chief justice with that independent redistricting ddmmission has alternative ways to address the problem of partisanship in redistricting. can you please explain what's going on has a conservative courts change their mind? is this just window dressing. >> so i think they learned they were wrong. [laughter] >> i want you to look at this crowd of 4000 people and so in little rock arkansas will have another interview with 18000 people. now there is a waiting list of 16000 people. [applause] >> so the notorious are bg with this cultural and pop icon in your ei

and state legislatures and federal legislature that is a momentous thing to do and that was done oh well the first amendment must mean money as well as individual vote. we cave within a hair of that same thing happening with the affordable care act cases when justice roberts wrote his famous opinion to say we cannot do this under the commerce clause. nobody can tell me to buy broccoli belly will do it under the tax clause and then suppose justice roberts sided with the other four justices in the affordable care act was not just called out for being unwise legislation. congress had passed it. democratically elected part of our government passed it but if the court said the constitution itself forbids this kind of experiment in healthcare reform that would've had exactly that paralyzing effect that judge setting - - sutton is be voting for go i agree. i am a big fan of letting things be handled by congress if they do something colossally stupid maybe a later congress will fix it then it stays in the political branch. i think the originalist approach that many on the supreme court have

in thecratic friends legislature, i came to the maryland legislature, as you know, and i went to washingtona member of congress and came back as governor. i have a lot of friends on the democratic side of the legislature, and they would say bobby, i love what you are doing, but you are a republican, so i cannot give you a whole lot of credit for this. but this is great, this is good stuff. and this is still willie horton, respectable willie horton was around the issue. for your younger viewers who do not know who willie horton is, the infamous and i believe vice president gore ran the first against mike dukakis. i think i am correct on that. the bottom line, willie horton was not necessarily someone a consequence, but he got out of prison early in massachusetts, committed at least one murder. of soft on crime. when i talk about the "nixon aes to china" analogy, it was center of republican governors, 10 to 15 years ago, including myself, not necessarily coming together but on our own saying, you know what? , we can do some sentencing reform, we can do reentry reform and job training, drug tr

legislature on thursday as we expect she will and she receives the same sort of reception where doesat leave her because she can't keep getting giving video messages to the whole cold people and certainly to fellow politicians who expect to be able to engage even if they disagree with the leader of the administration of the island i think this is the real real problem that hong kong faces at the moment that there is really very little trust in the hong kong government and in and in the police forces but there's also sort of no real avenues for sensible political discussion because as we have seen the sort of legislative council which should be real. debating point. has not been able to do so and part of the reason for that is the intransigence of the hong kong government but part of the reason is also that it's very difficult for the protesters to find a political voice and somehow that needs to happen. to bring it here you're not in agreement with what roger was saying. yeah you know 3 months ago i thought harry lime should stay on to sort of manage what's what's happening but now a

the legislature and senate have met here since 1879. sports over nine acres of hand-painted design and it is a tribute to the time, the victorian time. buildingeople expect a built in the late 1800s to basically be black-and-white. people don't realize how colorful the victorians were. this is a prime example. what you see is as close as we can come to what the building looked like shortly after it opened in the late 1870's. that includes restoring the original deck, the original chandeliers up above. each of those chandeliers has 1760 pieces of crystal and glass. the ceiling contains the coats of arms for each of the 50 states, even though there technically weren't 50 states in the union. they are in order of entry. they start in the back left corner as you approach the room and come around the perimeter as the stays join the union. in the senate, we have six wonderful portraits of individuals that were important to our nation and our state history. portrait of the marquis to lafayette. who was verychman well respected for the help he

hong kong leader kerry lamb has been shouted down for a 2nd consecutive day in the territories legislature opposition members protested in the chamber and called for her to step down at least 10 people removed by security lam was trying to answer questions regarding her on your policy address she was forced to deliver that speech through video link on wednesday after the legislative session was cancelled well some pro beijing politicians have condemned the recent protests against them. police think that the homegrown citizens are not is that anyone to use my limbs in any way so we all also know that while this cannot solve any problem still as a legislative council i don't think that any electrical members should use any kind of one that is including. old physical law and stay in the chamber to express their will. correspondent scott hina joins us now live from hong kong scott it was already an embarrassing day for kerry lamb yesterday how did today pass. and this does another embarrassing day is the best way to put it now what's very exciting is this is supposed to be a question and answe

i think i was in state legislature at the time. i was one of the folks who said we need to talk about this. not necessarily that it's a good idea, but we need to talk about it. we understand the criminal repercussions, what occurs as a result of prohibition, similar to alcohol. we've seen that with illegal drugs, and it's grown over many, many decades. we know there's a lot of profit motive. we know there's a lot of violence. the argument being, hey, we can have a safer society and tax it in these states that legalize is, they're obviously making a lot of money. on the other hand, people tend to down play the mental health aspects of long-term addiction, which are very real. >> "washington post" story today also talking about the marijuana plans put out by the other top contenders for the democratic presidential primary. just to run through those real quick, elizabeth warren supports sanders' plan. >> that's probably the majority position these days. by the way, when we talk about expunging records -- and we talked about my record

disruption in hong kong as legislature carried on is forced to postpone how annual policy speech as lawmakers shout down. violent clashes in boston on a 2nd day of protests over the jailing of 9 separatist leaders. the white house stands accused of stonewalling an impeachment investigation against donald trump. takis president russia talk about iran has dismissed a proposal for a cease fire in northeast and syria insisting the operation will continue until his country's objectives have been achieved aid agency doctors without borders says it's been forced to suspend the majority of its work in the region because of the offensive as that operation continues russia says its troops on now on patrol in northern syria then harder reports. the russians moved in after the americans moved out in a deliberate withdrawal the city of mumbai is moscow's latest victory in syria its military police now patrols a front line that separates the turkish and syrian army's their presence stops a turkish led military advance towards the city which sits on the m 4 highway a main logistics and commercial route that

my legislature is 60% republican , the best it has been the whole time i have served in office. i had to get medicaid expansion reauthorized. i signed my last bill on a monday and announced on a tuesday and was off to the races thereafter. i needed to get that job done. in part, a lot of debate rules are about individual donors. i haven't been on all of the debates but i know that it is folks like you all, the early states that take a big field and narrow it down. that is what i am counting on. even in that divided time expandedegislature, we health care for 100,000 people through medicaid expansion we got fiscal and until health parity, investments in the k-12 system aired first-time investments in pre-k. we have the fourth lowest tuition and fees in the nation by freezing college tuition and investing more into higher education, not decreasing it. i also recognize that not everyone is going to go to college. 60% of people don't even have a two-year degree. we made two-year college and tribal colleges about apprenticeships so that people can climb that ladder in the middle clas

i went back to my legislature, and it was about two thirds republican. we passed a law that said 90 days out from an election, i do not care if you call yourself americans for america for america, wherever it is, you have to disclose all of the money you are spending. in 2016,or reelection 90 days out, americans for prosperity the koch funded sent -- they did such a good job sending blanket mailers that even wound up at the governor's residence. my kids were looking at this saying dad, are you that much of a creep? on day 90 it stopped. if we can stop them there, we can stop them in new hampshire and across this country. we have to figure out away way people's voices are heard. we rolled out something a couple weeks ago. this crazy idea. let's imagine you elect someone to the u.s. senate. how about having him or her do the job half the time? meaning for the first three years of their term, they can't be focused on raising money or they can't be focused on reelection. congressudy came out, -- the average congressman spent 1.5 million hours raising money.

least with so much of here in hong kong for months now was your disruption inside the legislature the best way to get caroline to address your proposals for change in. well desist a 1st day and official start all for a new less school year and after all these longs our chief executive miscarry lem still refused to positively unser all demands and today she was didn't deliver her policy address and without solving resolving the present situation i don't thing that anything can resolve or even make hold on to calls for wood and we have so many problems laying in front of her but she decided not to resolve all the steam alms to keep on going and to after looking at his policy address it's just otoh wants and without any innovative ideas so i really don't know how she can govern whole call and and at the same time this is day obligation and a duty all the legislator to bring the voices of hong kong people. i'd like to jump in there. like to jump in there john if i could i'm you're saying it's all about resolving the current situation but the disruption in the legislature also meant that y

failed in her attempt to address a legislature or a policy statement yet we have a video recording all of this obviously of what she had to say and she talked about financial help sort of low income families who need better housing and a promise to listening gauge with opposing politicians and the public she said this in a variety of forms i'm paraphrasing here is it enough. well you look at what happened in the legislative council complex if she is students here in wishing to engage with the pro-democracy politicians i don't think they would have treated her like that today. there's no injects talking to them and that's why we're so angry just going back to the legislative laps of next tomorrow to answer questions i don't think it will be any different from today this is this is this is crazy you really have to go out and engage and listen to people who have very different view. roger why in london has has the tipping point been reached to a certain extent for kerry lonmin that so much has happened since what april earlier this year when all of this began with the anger over an extrad

w,right because both the congress and the state legislature are getting low ratings.he congress much lower, 24%, but 51% said that they're not happy with the state legislature today. >> and how does that translate? eywhat are unhappy about? >> problems that aren't being -- >> that we've cited? are there others th we need to cover here? >> well, i think that healthcare cost is so a great think that also for many and californians, the fear of deportation for -- due to increased federal enforcement. we found 4 out of 10 people in our poll, and about half of latino, about half of lowe income a cans said they are afraid that ksomeone thw is going to be dorted. >> so thincludes election infederal governmentrity. >> that's right. >> do you get action om the legislatures in sacramento? >> oh, they pay attention. of course their approval rating is what they look at the but -- >> they know where the checks are coming from. >> that's right. that not only what the voters think, but what the people who so that's one of the reasons that in our methodology we stayed with interviewin

they were not subject to our empire, not represented in our legislature. derived norived -- protection from our laws. independence,ht, disavowal of protection are not sufficient to keep them from the coercion of our laws, on what principle can we justify our opposition to some late acts of power exercised over us by the british legislature? pretended to impose a paltry tax and money. our free -- oh neighbors the yoke of perpetual slavery. richard bland, another of our founding fathers, defended indian slavery at the trial. he rested his case on the argument that captives taken in just wars could be enslaved. surprisingly, in this case, courtv. hardaway, the agreed with george mason. and robin and his 11 co-plaintiffs were set free. the practice of enslaving native americans was declared inonstitutional in virginia 1806. the case was hudgins v. wright. door -- george with, the la professor ford thomas jefferson, a judge, ruled in a lower court that the first amendment to the u.s. constitution made slavery illegal. he said it was illegal on the grounds that

the fact she had been in the legislature. he particularly think thought it was important that a judge had legislative experience. and understood what it was to be a legislator, so they were not making decisions in just a vacuum. the fact that she had had that experience, in the legislature, understood what making law is, something judges are not supposed to do. but understands how the representation of the people works into the law themselves so they would have an appreciation of what their job was to do in interpreting the law. so all of these things. but i think the history we heard today about her early life, the fact she worked on a ranch, i cannot help but think it became a major factor in ronald reagan thinking very highly of her. [laughter] dahlia: evan, i guess i want to ask you to amplify that. what was the, what was the secret sauce that she brought to, to, the selection process, and what is it that president reagan responded to? mr. thomas: i spoke to ken starr, who was attorney general william french smith's speci

even michigan which has a republican legislature has been introduced and debated. that could be the future of this movement that does not require the herk lin lift of amending the constitution. host: we'll go to calls. caller: good morning. i guess what i would say about these elections is i became a -- i registered to start voting back in the 8 os. so basically i'm a career politician. anybody's who is registered to vote and you vote, you're a career politician. so stop talking about the people you send to office. the other thing i would say is so we've been having an issue with the elections since -- i mean ross perot. that's the last president i voted for. the last thing i will say is the democrats they deserve what they get and the republicans they deserve what they get. i knew trump was going to get elected even before he was elected because i've been to augusta, maine, to burlington, vermont, south dakota, so i already knew the landscape what was going to happen. now, the republicans, they have to live with -- they dropped the ball and let the democrats take

[applause] here.let me set the stage i think we probably mostly have here.griculture audience probably tuning in as well. there are only about two million country that are directly farming. so a lot of people, even though eating and wearing fibers and using fuel that's grown in we're not states, directly engaged in this industry as much as we used to be. disconnect.a big i imagine most of you are not thinking about agriculture every day, but there is a lot going on. and i was hoping that each of you would kind of set the stage you think we are right now in the agriculture sector. i mean, certainly there's been a

sunday morning seeking an injunction against the ban they argued the emergency powers bypass the legislature and contravene the city's constitution today is about terrorism 1st rule of law i would say this is one of the most important constitutional cases in the history of all but a senior judge dismissed the case that only increased the defiance of hong kong residents large crowds marched through to wrench will reign in unsanctioned rallies . carry lam is trying to use the ban to keep us from coming out. she suppressing our right to express ourselves this will only push us further. out . as night fell things turned ugly some demonstrators turning their rage on businesses with connections to mainland china and fighting pitched battles with police carry lamb has warned that the ban on face masks was only the 1st card in her hand the emergency law allows her to make any regulations whatsoever in the face of the sun rest. so where is all this heading we're joined now by the w.'s cliff who reported from beijing for 15 years you know this story very intimately kerry lamb. voted friday people were

legislature on thursday as we expect she will and she receives the same sort of reception where does that leave her because she can't keep getting giving video messages to the whole cole people and certainly to follow politicians who expect to be able to engage even if they disagree with the leader of the administration of the island i think this is the real real problem that hong kong faces at the moment that there is really very little trust in the hong kong government and in the and in the police forces but there's also sort of no real avenues for sensible political discussion because as we have seen the sort of legislative council which should be a real debate. point. has not been able to do so and part of the reason for that is the intransigence of the hong kong government but part of the reason is also that it's very difficult for the protesters to find a political voice and somehow that needs to happen. again here you were nodding in agreement with what roger was saying. yeah you know 3 months ago i thought kerry lamb should stay on to sort of manage what's what's happening bu

hong kong's leader terry lamb has been shouted down for a 2nd consecutive day in the territories legislature opposition members protested in the chamber and called for her to step down at least 10 people were removed by security line was trying to answer questions regarding her annual policy address she was forced to deliver that speech through video link on wednesday after the legislative session was canceled some pro beijing politicians have condemned the out got slammed in the legislature have always think that the hong kong citizens were not a step anyone to use while it was. anyway so we all also know that while this cannot solve any problem so as a legislative council i don't think that any electrical members should use any kind of violence including. physical violence in the chandra how to express their will. the french foreign minister has made his iraqi counterpart in baghdad to discuss the security of ice or camps in northern syria turkey's offensive against kurds has led to concerns that many detained us or fighters may escape european governments are concerned the operation will

got a much simpler case where the executive is not the legislature. the executive is doing the legislature's bidding by as written bylaw congress, not contrary to it. the lower courts have taken a relatively i'm trying to think of a neutral word, hair splitting attitude that says obamahe reason that the administration -- excuse me, is -- override their executive judgment, but again, whether or not it's illegal doesn't really matter. first of all, there's a lot out, as they pointed there's at least litigation risk if you follow the obama lead position,adverse dapa but more importantly, regardless of whether it's illegal not to allrce the law there's kinds of reasons that you don't want to not enforce the law. there's all kinds of reasons be enforcing the law, which i previously touched on. to create ant conflict with congress. you don't want to usurp the legislative function by engaging a line item veto so regardless of whether or not it was illegal what the obama had done by not enforcing the law, the trump ofinistration had a myriad reasons why they

here we have a simpler case where the executive is not at odds with the legislature. theexecutive is doing legislature's bidding by enforcing the law as written i congress, not contrary to it. the lower courts have taken a relatively -- i'm trying to think of a neutral word. hairsplitting attitude that says the reason the trump administration is enforcing this is because they thought the obama administration's prior policy was illegal and the courts will go on to say they don't think it's illegal, therefore they override the executive judgment. whether or not it is illegal doesn't really matter. as they pointed out, there's at least litigation risk if you follow the obama position. more importantly, regardless of whether it is illegal not to enforce the law, there's all kinds of reasons you don't want to not enforce the law. there's all kinds of reasons you should be enforcing the law. you don't want to create a conflict of congress, you don't want to usurp the legislative function by engaging in a line item veto. regardless of whether or not it was illegal, the trump

now the governor and the west virginia legislature seated there would have to leave the mountain state lead the mountain state in a post war world. years and decades past the seven survivors formed veterans association, with members meeting from time to time for annual get togethers, sometimes part of larger state a national meetings of the union army veterans organization, the member the grand army of the republic rgi are, soon after the legislation that created gettysburg national military park, was signed into law in 1885, the secretary of the senate minority committee who had survived the bout the battle of gettysburg was discharge for the ability to months later received a letter from the gettysburg national park granted permission to proceed on the new park the settlement veteran group and west virginia jr post were instrumental in lobbying state let legislature to do appropriate funds to mark the positions of the west virginia units that fought and gettysburg and vicksburg. in february 1898, two months before the united states declared war on spain, jon jean kelly, the seventh f

because tennessee might be the last and deciding state to ratify the 19th amendment and tennessee legislature did, then women across the country in every state, in every election for the first time, all women would have the right to vote and was all coming down to tennessee and got really wild. >> how many women for at voting age? >> 27 million women of voting age, of course, not all would vote and as we know for african-american women and for asian women and for native american women they would not be allowed to vote, the 19th amendment did give vote to all women but jim crow laws in the south and other state laws denied the vote to quite a few women, minorities, 27 million women were eligible to vote and no one knew how they were going to vote and the politicians were worried about it, it was a presidential election and so the presidential candidates were very worried about it, the governor is very worried about it, he's up for reelection, becomes political free for all from the white house to congress to the legislature in nashville. >> before we get into some of the characters involved, a
