charles levine. levine owned this block the columbia. it was the best plane of the bunch at the time. lindbergh wanted it. lindbergh always painted levine as a duplicitous man. in fact, he more or less painted him as a duplicitous jew within his spirit of st. louis. because he always felt bitter about the fact that he had the columbia within his grasp and then levine jerked it away from him at the last minute. levine was the first transatlantic airline passenger, he jumped into the plane at the very last minute. lindbergh went across on may 20. chamberlain and levine went across in june, they went to berlin, they went farther than lindbergh avenue. -- lindbergh had it. levine was the only flyer who did not receive a letter of commendation from calvin coolidge. the jewish population in brooklyn had a fit about that. so that is levine. live in -- levine is the villain of the piece. many newspaper men called him a madman, because he was always changing his mind. but he was the most like lindbergh of any of the flyers. he was an outsider. he

levin: no way.discussions on issues and tbt specifically, these discussions have been going on for a long time, both rightly and personally, if i might say. we are not satisfied with the way that tpt is going, and sometimes we have classified refuse, so we can't even tell you when you ask me what is being negotiated. sometimes i will say there is a plan but i can't tell us what is in it. sometimes i say we are talking. right now, if we asked anybody around here, where do you think the negotiations will end up on the key issues, medicines, currency, i'm afraid is out, environment issues, worker the investment state issued that allows investors not to go through the courts but through an arbitration panel, if i were to ask any member where this is going to end up, no one could tell because we don't know. this: so it sounds like at point, you and the president still are some distant apart -- distance apart. do you think you will reconcile it by this time next week? rep. levin: i think the word was that

levin. mr. levin: i yield myself such time as i shall consume. the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman is recognized. mr. levin: the debate these last weeks and months has been about how do we get a strong and effective trade policy and trade agreement. that debate only intensifies now. supporters of trade promotion authority, t.p.a. sought vague negotiating objectives and passive role for congress in the process was the way to go in part because many on the majority side feel that more trade is essentially better no matter its terms or conditions. the opponents of t.p.a. wanted to ensure that t.p.p. negotiations were on the right track with no blank check to ustr and there are so many outstanding areas, where we are not satisfied with the status of negotiations, where we are uncertain of their outcome, now we can focus like a laser beam on those issues. the argument about the process of t.p.a. is now behind us. and the challenge of the substance of t.p.p. smack in front of us. automatic embraced of centuries' old doctrines does not meet the chall

levin: how much time do we have left? the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman from michigan has 10 minutes remaining. the gentleman from wisconsin has 9 1/2 minutes remaining. mr. levin: i yield for a unanimous consent to mr. sherman. mr. sherman: i ask unanimous consent to add to the record the chart showing we have a $100 billion trade deficit with our f.t.a. countries. those are the official statistics of the u.s. international trade commission. the speaker pro tempore: without objection. the gentleman from michigan. mr. levin: it's now my distinct pleasure to yield one minute to the gentleman from minnesota, mr. ellison. the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman from minnesota is recognized for one minute. mr. ellison: members, trade adjustment assistance should not be a sweetener a trade in coin, trade adjustment assistance should be what we do no matter what. it shouldn't pave the way for trade breaux motion authority. it is important -- for trade promotion authority. it is important and good to stand with dislocated wo

levine -- there's a lot of anti-semitism. at the time, in 1927, there were african-american flyers who wanted to fly but a few places that would let them fly. chamberlain was one of the few flyers in new york who regularly went up with a black flyer. i think he was jamaican. his name was -- what was his name? hubert fauntleroy julian or something like that. he called himself the black eagle, and for a couple of years advertisers would pay him to go , over harlem in a red devil suit and jump out and he would trail behind somewhere and he -- trail behind him some marquee. he and chamberlain were the best of friends and finally he built this plane, he was going to be the first american flyer to fly from new york city to liberia . i guess it was a pretty rickety plane because he invited chamberlain to fly with him and he said you are not going to fly in that. come along with me. the plane took off and in three seconds it landed in the east river and julien was in the hospital for a wwitk or -- a week or something like that and i

levin cloin -- mr. levin: i yield to the gentleman from california, mr. becerra, a member of the ways and means committee, and the chair of our caucus. the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman from california is recognized for two minutes. mr. becerra: i thank the gentleman for yielding. trade's pretty simple. we do it every day. whether you are trading in the old car for a newer car or whether it's the largest economy in the world trading with the rest of the world. we do it every day. and at the end of the day, what we want is a fair deal. i give you something, the benefit of the bargain is i get something back. any country that wants access to our markets needs to play by the rules. we can't allow cheating to hurt our workers, their wages, our businesses, or our economy. and the american people get it. that's why they are so apprehensive about any trade deal this congress puts before it. because they want to know will we lead on their behalf or are we going to let the special interests dictate the rules? will we retreat from our responsibility to make su

levin. mr. levin: i yield myself such time as i may consume. to vote for t.p.a. now is to surrender congressional leverage to get it right in shaping t.p.p. the most significant trade negotiation in decades. congress will have settled for a bill with so-called congressional negotiating objectives, so vague they are essentially meaningless. that won't matter to those who basically approach trade with a 19th century doing ma, the trade between -- dog ma, the trade between two nations will be imperative. but that has not worked out when in this era, one nation manipulates its currency as it trades with the other when nations suppress worker rights to keep their wages low or degrade their environment to help them compete or when nations heavily subsidize their markets or keep their markets closed while the competitor keeps them very open inviteal areas, whether industrial or agricultural. so let us write the rules that congress must be sure they are right. we must make sure that the beneficiaries are the many in our nation not just the few. as often stated in this de

levin: thank you. i now yield two minutes to the chairman ofure caucus and a member of our committee -- of our caucus and a member of our committee, mr. becerra of california. the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman from california is recognized for two minutes. mr. becerra: i thank the gentleman for yielding. so this trade promotion authority legislation, as we heard is all about writing the rules. writing the rules on trade. it's about who will lead or who will retreat on insisting on free and fair trade. this t.p.a. legislation sets forward the instructions on how we will write the rules in any trade agreement. ok. who is going to lead writing the rules? on currency manipulation where countries, not just the companies but the countries themselves that want to trade with us, are cheating by manipulating their currency to make the value of their goods look less expensive than american products in the same area. when those countries are cheating, what are we going to say should be the rules when it come

levin: i yield 30 seconds. mr. pascrell: this country got shafted with our deal with korea on country of origin automobiles. you don't see any more cars traveling thru korea or certainly china that are made in the united states of america. we are taking a back seat. instead of protecting the interests of u.s. workers, not protectionism, we're not advocating that, this trade deal gives protections and sweetheart deals to multinational corporations. pure and simple. and the american people look at every poll from the left from the right, from north south, east, west, do not accept this bill and we shouldn't either. thank you mr. speaker i yield back. the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman from wisconsin reserves. the gentleman from michigan. mr. levin: it's my pleasure to yield two minutes to another member of our committee, mr. davis of illinois. the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman is recognized for two minutes. mr. davis: thank you very much, mr. speaker. i was thinking what a difference a week does not make. th

in the beginning, there was blair levin and the national broadband plan. the excellent work of the national broadband plan called our attention to the opportunities and challenges of broadband, the kind of work that is presently being carried on by the president's broadband opportunity council continues that kind of forward looking effort. and as blair told us in the first line of the national broadband plan, broadband is the defining network of the 21st century. broadband networks facilitate today's economy and today's social activity. but even more important than what they're doing now, what broadband is doing now is what it is igniting in terms of new possibilities for the future. thanks to broadband, the often -- the unimaginable of today becomes the reality of tomorrow. we only have to look at a couple of facts that we now accept as common to see that. the largest taxi cab company has no cars. the largest overnight stay company doesn't own any hotels. what they do have is easy access to broadband which enables them to assemble resources in new ways to

levin: i allocate as much time as i use to myself.e speaker pro tempore: the gentleman is recognized for as much time as he wishes to use. mr. levin: i have worked in all my years here to expand trade in ways that spread its benefits to the many not just to the few. charlie rangel and i led the fight to include strong and enforcible labor and environmental provisions and to strike the right balance between innovation and access to medicines in the historic may 10 agreement of 2007. the trouble with this t.p.a. is that it means no meaningful provisions whatsoever in t.p.p. on currency manipulation, which has destroyed millions of middle class american jobs and allows investors to challenge american health and environmental regulations and others not through the american legal system but through unregulated, arbitration panels. it's about a t.p.p. going in the wrong direction on access to medicines and in some important ways environmental protections. and it's about countries like mexico that deny their workers basic labor rights to gai

i want to bring in larry levine. i told you about larry about 30 minutes ago, the former federal inmate, founder of wall street consultants, joining him as well, joey jackson. larry, back to you, i wanted to ask you a question about whether inmates talk all the time about escape plans, what they would do, where they would go, how far they would go. are you able to give me any insight as all as to these kinds of conversations and what the impetus would be for two guys who got free and have 12 days now? would they stay close hunkered down or would they get as far away as they could on those high-speed areas of egress that were just mentioned? >> well, of course. you know, they had a seven hour head start. these cops really other than maybe congratulating themselves for working with each other, they have nothing. they've said that. they ought to be spending their time looking instead of going on tv. but inmates in an institution, everybody's thinking of escaping. i used to watch people walk the fenceline. people would t

levin was correct. when we were designing the affordable care act, everyone was expected to share in the cost as we work for the american people. the medical device industry said how about 2.3%? we'll go for that. they agreed to it. here they are asking for us to give them nothing, no taxes. they don't have to pay anything, no matter how they benefit from it. now repealing this tax, which the nonpartisan analysts have shown has no negative effect on jobs, will add 24.-- $24.4 billion to the deficit. it would eliminate an important source of revenue simply to appease an industry that has benefited directly and greatly from the expansion of the coverage of a.c.a. on top of that, the bill is a distraction from a more important issue that the congress needs to address in the context of medical devices. they would not let us vote on an amendment in the committee to bring up the institution of unique device identifiers. an essential tool of improving patient safety is the u.d.i. a u.d.i. is a number associate

whistle-blowers was critical to a hearing and investigation led by former senator tom coburn former senator carl levin, into an administrative law judge office in west virginia which is responsible for reviewing thousands of applications for social security disability programs. that hearing was powerful and proved critical to improving accountability and oversight into the disability program. these whistle-blowers performed an important role in both the investigation and in the hearing. i number of women very brave , courageous women, really to put everything on the line their jobs, livelihood, their lives, in order to be able to tell us the truth. and without them, there would have been no investigation there would have been no hearing, and the fraud the committee shined a light on may have never been uncovered. so i believe in whistle-blowers. i'm grateful for whistle-blowers and think -- make sure they're treated like we would want to be treated. those are just two recent examples of the critical role whistle-blowers can play. i was pleased to learn that the office of special council has made signi
