maryland. . justice breyer went through the very logical process that marshall had east, saying that these at the enumerated powers that congress has the right to pursue, the power to tax and to regulate commerce. so we must see that congress choice for how to pursue those is completely an outside of the bounds of the possible and permissible use of their power. starting from the first principles that march articulated, severely is valid in its footsteps. >> another critical distinction. the tax that the individual mandate, the tax, whatever you want to call, at the penalty was on individuals as opposed to on the government itself. the question in mcculloch with the taxation of government and thought of individuals. >> state versus federal. so we'll talk a little bit about the implications, but let's move on to the decision itself and how it was reached. how did justice marshall, after listening to nine days approach a decision with the other justices? >> our arguments on wednesday and people wer

is that difficult for maryland? >> it's difficult for anybody to enforce, but it's not as big an issue for us yet, but we're keeping an eye on that and certainly putting out advisories and warnings and trying to message to people they ought to be cautious. >> another question from twitter. what are you thinking about with respect how voting is going to unfold in the fall given the circumstances? >> during the height of the pandemic. we were supposed to have a primary right at the peak when we were massive infection rate and i signed an executive order postponing the primary moving it a couple of months later to june and we allowed for a vote by mail and they only opened up a few precincts. they screwed up the vote by pail, state board of elections did, and mailed spanish speaking ballots to english speakers and the wrong districts. as disaster. and a people showed up at the precincts and waits. we are going to have mail-in batt ballot. early voting safely distanced and absentee ballots we've done for 20 years. and w

is that more difficult to do in maryland? >> i think it's much more difficult for anybody to enforce. it's not as big of an issue for us yet, but we are keeping an eye on that and certainly putting out advisories and warnings and trying to message people to be cautious. >> another question from twitter. what are you thinking about with respect to how voting is going to unfold in the fall given the extenuating circumstances? >> during the height of the pandemic we were supposed to have a primary right at the peak. i signed an executive order postponing the primary and moving it a few months later to june. we allowed for vote by mail and only a few precincts opened up. they screwed up the vote by mail, spanish speaking ballots went to english speakers, they got the wrong districts, it was a disaster. a bunch of people showed up at the handful of precincts and had for our waits. so this time, we've had all the above. we will mail out applications for mail-in ballots to everybody. we will have early voting for everybody and we wi

maryland is a state that has grappled with widespread and managed to crush the epidemic and bring the levels down so i wanted to talk about the things he did to try to control the epidemic in the state and restore to bring back what was important with respect to trying to open schools and restart the economy and to do the things important to people and preserve those things even in the continued risk from the epidemic and the risk that comes back at some point this fall. thank you for joining us. i want to start with a question. what are you looking at with respect to the polls and what do you think the risks are? >> i want to thank aei. thank you for your service and giving advice serving on the task force. it's been valuable and i think you are obviously one of the most important voices and leaders so thank you for everything you've done. it's been a pleasure working with you and i look forward to discussion. >> i think as we move forward, we are concerned as everybody else, looking at what is weppening around the country. we were early and aggressive to go after this think thanks t

the maryland are against the marylander. >> next is kelly. >> thank you for the series. several questions. first of all, thanks specifically to our two guests. this is very interesting. i am a former retired attorney. last time i looked at red scott was in law school about 50 years ago. but my question is, this is really the worst-case the supreme court had decided. i think i would have said like plessy versus ferguson. because it continued longer -- also i don't know if any of you can answer this. i do not believe you are doing plessy in the series. or roe v. wade the fort of education. why aren't you doing plessy? >> a very simple answer to that. we had 12 weeks and thousands of cases. with the constitution center as our partners in this, really spent lots of time arguing which cases would be our landmark cases, knowing we could not do all. but already, we are thinking about next year, maybe more cases. what about plessy versus ferguson, perhaps -- >> and depends on your perspective and what you're talking about. in terms of impugning the reputation of the court. the c

in the university of maryland, do additional testing. when you think we can be doing at a national level. what can we better support the states to get more testing as we head into the fall. because team point, when this glides with the flu season, everyone who has any kind of flulike symptoms, and now going to get ruled out for covid-19 so we will need to put more strain on testing. gov. larry hogan: so in the washington post a few days ago, really was about the current story. it was an exit for the book talking about the early stages of this pandemic. i think we could've taken more steps. in the national testing strategy. i think that we have done a better job of getting testing ramped up not only in our state throughout the country. now running into problems the interstates are having shortages. in the labs are so overloaded that they're taking up to ten days or even longer to get test back. this almost worthless. you cannot really make decisions based on somebody that had a positive ten days late. so we here developed a long-term test

is maryland ready right now to open up at this point? >> well, no.ve had a very safe gradual and effective cautious re-opening plan that was based on the best advice of the scientists. we're in a holding pattern. we have been for the past 30 days. we're continuing to pause. we're not ready to reopen anything, open anything further. in 22 states are now rolling things back that they had already reopened. we're not in that position either. it's the same kind of messaging that the president had previously. and i think it's a mistake to return to that kind of messaging, as we're seeing flare-ups around the country. >> dr. deborah birx from the coronavirus task force, she flagged baltimore in maryland as an especially concerning city, seeing a rise in new cases. baltimore just tightened face mask regulations to include all indoor and outdoor public spaces where people might not be able to stay six feet apart. that goes even further than the order you issued in april. are you going to tighten up the statewide mandate that everyone in the state of maryland

i'm here on the senate floor and with my colleague from maryland. i'm here this morning in part to condemn chinese communist party's actions, their efforts to swallow hong kong into the mainland, and silence the dissent of the people of hong kong, but i'm also here to do something about that. you know, for decades, hong kong has been one of the most successful, thriving societies on the planet. an indispensable part of their success has been their freedom. hong kong has enjoyed a vibrant free press, free speech, freedom to worship. they have had an independent judiciary and a partially democratic electoral representative system of government for a long time now. hong kong's one of the freest places in asia, and because of these freedoms and the hong kong people's natural entrepreneurial spirit, hong kong is just one of the most successful and vibrant cities there has ever been. and yet for years, maybe because of this, the chinese communist party has pursued a systematic campaign to snuff out these basic freedoms in hong kong and bring the hong kong

the presiding officer: the senator from maryland. mr. cardin: thank you, mr. president. mr. president, shortly, i'm going to make a u.c. request. i'm not going to do it now because we're still working out some of the specific details. senator scott will be on the floor when i do that. but let me just explain why i'm on the floor and my colleague, senator shaheen, a key member of the small business committee and one of the negotiators on the small business package is on the floor and we will be joined by senator schumer -- and we are joined by senator schumer who has been a real champion on making sure we get help to america's small businesses. i'm going to acknowledge the work of senator coons who i expect will be on the floor a little later, one of our key cosponsors on the next round of aid is senator rosen. i want to acknowledge the cosponsors of the unanimous consent request legislation, including myself and senator schumer, senator shaheen, senator coons, senator rosen, and senator collins. i also want to acknowledge that this is bi

he is a citizen of maryland. does he go to the university of maryland law school? >> he wants to go to that university, but the maryland law school had stopped accepting african american students there in the late 19th century. he decides to apply and he understands that it might be difficult, the decides to apply anyway and he gets the standard letter back, that they don't allow african americans to go to the school here, and that there are other wonderful schools in the area. you might want to try them. we might even provide you with some money to go somewhere else in the state. he decides that he cannot afford to do that. he does not want to go to maryland and winds of actually having to go to howard university instead. what is interesting about that is when he first goes to howard university, the reputation is not very strong. in fact, it was only a night school, law school, which meant that it was set up that for individuals who had to work during the day to go to law school at night and then become lawyers. but the standards were not very high. the demands ar

the impact on maryland citizens? guest: if congress cannot find some sort of bipartisan compromise to get this done, it's going to be quite disastrous for the country. cuomo, who is my vice chairman of the national governors association, and i put out a statement again yesterday, and this is nearly unanimous between republican and democratic governors, we've been pushing for more relief. the governors are on the front lines, trying to provide more services to more people that are desperately in need. billion from the federal government to provide some of those services. we've also laid off 1.6 million state and local government workers, front-line workers like health care workers and teachers and firefighters and police officers and people working to to thoseenefits people, people that are trying to help her struggling small businesses. there's a potential of losing 3 million to 4 million of them. it's not helpful to the economic recovery. it's very frustrating to us. i was just talking, we got a commitment from the

us as governor larry hogan, republican of maryland. joining us is governor larry hogan, republican of maryland. he's also the chair of the national governors association. governor, let me begin with the news on the coronavirus. we had 150,000 deaths and cases are on the rise in your state and across the country. is it time for a national strategy rather than governors coming up with their own strategies? >> well it was probably a time for a national strategy back in february or march. i've been somewhat critical of the fact that early in the, i talk about this in my book, early in the pandemic, i thought it was important for the federal government to come up with more of a national strategy on testing, on contact tracing, on a more coordinated, from the federal level, attack from this virus. that's behind us now and the virus has spread across the country. governors have been on the front lines out of necessity and taking actions that we think are necessary. obviously, we are continuing to do so and doing everything we can to stop the

, new england, maryland, d.c. and virginia and then they pushed things down. you're starting to see in maryland had a slight uptick again in new cases. is this cyclical in the sense that is this, you know, the states that knocked it down, can they keep it down in the united states of america if their neighbors are reopening, or is this, as you see maryland start to trickle back up, is it inevitable? >> i know it's inest able and you're right it's complicated that it's a patchwork of governor's choices and different policies in place, but for states we have a lot of data and you can see where numbers go up and can see when hospitalizations trend up or when diagnosetic positivity starts to go up, and i think that that's when people should be acting. if you look back in florida, texas, arizona, there's been signs for six weeks now that things were heading in the wrong direction and other states that are beginning to see signs that are worrisome. we shouldn't wait for weeks and weeks to be able to make changes. we sho

i expect here in our community in maryland that because it's tor season now that these cases are going to come back as people do not socially distance or where there are mass while visiting our beaches i don't think president will do anything i think he will continue to say it's a hoax and not believe in the science that is there causing so many cases and. this lack of guidance creates a turn them off for business owners between health concerns and remaining competitive. once in the bar and grill in the 5th generation. we want to know where i'm at but if they don't know where i'm at we can't tell them where i'm at because if they're right to wear a mask or not i don't feel safe with them around at night when i'm at you know that quiet where i am. yeah i would rather that where. you can make it you can make it a law that you know we have to wear it if it's recommended and if there are safety in our health then you know i need to make it where you know you get fined $500.00 if you don't harm. the united states are facing a new record high of with 19 infections little would you know here

washington bureau chief and us paul has been to ocean city in maryland to gauge the mood. for many americans this is the 1st time after a month. they are hungry for fun and some. want to celebrate this 4th of july weekend as they normally do. to keep moving on do the fireworks continue normalcy as much as we can moving back to normalcy is what we'd like to do i think if you take the right precautions there's nothing to be scared they don't want your party to know what you enjoy what you have you know how many thousands in a group want to protest. how to deal with the pandemic is highly politicized some fear that the restrictions are taking away their personal freedom of those just seeing the responsible action. here on our community in maryland because it's tourist season now that these places are going to people do not socially distance or where they're. visiting our beaches i don't think are going to do anything i think he will continue to say it's a hoax and not believe in the science that is there calls in so many cases and. this lack of guidance creates a turn them of

for what purpose does the member from maryland rise? >> i have an amendment at the desk. >> the clerk will read the amendment. >> i move to waive the reading. >> without objection, the reading is dispensed with. the member from maryland is recognized for five minutes on the amendment. >> thank you, madam chair. this amendment, part of it, is similar to last year, but the situation has changed greatly since last year and needs to be expressed again. you know, the problem is a lot of drugs move across our southern border and an article in the los angeles times, september 1, 2019, subsequent to the last time we discussed this, , "traffickers embrace fentanyl." if you look at the statistics it says, in 2018, and it has gotten worse, more than 31,000 died after taking fentanyl or a close chemical relative, according to the cdc. no other modern drug has killed more people in a year. we are talking about fentanyl. fentanyl started appearing on u.s. streets in significant quantities in 2013. most of it, produced in china and shipped in the mail

maryland has more than 78,000 confirmed cases of covid-19 and more than 3300 known deaths.ernor larry hogan, a republican, is blaming the trump administration for down playing the severity of this crisis. he wrote in the washington post, i'm a gop governor why didn't trump help my state with coronavirus testing unquote. nbc julia jester is in baltimore's canton neighborhood. one of the areas with most infections in the state. how willing are residents there, if at all, to close businesses again in hopes of bending this curve? >> reporter: canton is in the top three zip codes in the state of maryland in term of total cases. nearly half of all new cases are of residents in their 20s and 30s. this area is a popular spot for young professionals. i spoke with manager that voluntarily closed down for ten days after a staffer had coronavirus for testing and clean pg ing in the hopes takin precautionary measure we could av avoid another shutdown >> i am worried he might shut us down again i'm hoping he's not. he's trying the best to keep every one in their jobs because he wants eve

at this point i would like to yield to the senator from maryland. >> mr. president >> the senators recognize. >> thank you mr. president. i want to salute my friend and colleague the senator from pennsylvania mr. toomey for his remarks and for his leadership on this very vital issue of standing up for the rights and freedoms of people in hong kong and as he said sending a signal to others around the world who would seek to stamp out human rights and political freedom. when senator toomey and by saw the chinese communist party was taking its more recent staff to crack down on freedoms in hong kong we introduced the hong kong accountability act. that act to just pass the united states senate unanimously last week and was sent to the house of representatives. this is a very fast turnaround from either of the chambers here in the united states congress. i want to thank speaker pelosi and her republican partner and all the democrats and republicans in the house of representatives for coming together so quickly on this legislation. the legislation before us made

trump grill sells maryland crab cakes. maryland crab comes from the chesapeake bay.ng at one of the most vibrant cultural and culinary elements of the entire eastern seaboard. >> i've lived here my entire life. so of course to me it's very special. i think the chesapeake bay is very unique. >> aubrey vincent is the co-owner of lindy's seafood, a crab processor that's been in business here for the last 40 years. >> every maryland picking house is family-run. so it's someone like me and my dad that are running multi-generational family businesses, and that's how that product is getting on your table. >> it's the water-born version of the family farm. up to 140,000 pounds of crab are steamed,ds picked, and packed every day. >> when our community, our last census i think was 165 people. i hire 105. based on the census, every single person would need to be unemployed and interested in this job to even begin to fill the job openings. >> there just aren't enough local t residents to fill this seasonal job. so the only way you can make it all work from a labor standpoint is

>> well, marshall grows up not too far from here in baltimore, maryland. and his family has lived there for quite a long time. actually, his first name when he first was named was thoroughgood marshall named after his grandfather, and he decided in sixth grade, he didn't like that name. it was too hard to pronounce. he started to call himself thurgood but it's much better than thoroughgood. what was important is getting that name from his grandparents is also the history they passed down with him, that his grandparents on both sides were very active in the community in baltimore, african-american community. and were agitators for change, were agitators for fair treatment. i think they passed that down to him. and it sort of spurred his work in that area, along with his mother and father. they demanded that at the dinner table when they had conversations, they demanded that their two children, thurgood and his brother, if they are going to have an idea, first of all, they have had to have read the papers and know the information, secondly, they had to put t

from what purpose does the member from maryland rise. german, -- madam chairman, i would ask the reading be dispensed with. >> without objection, the reading of the amendment is dispensed with. the member from maryland is recognized for five minutes. >> this amendment is an amendment that the committee has seen last year also but is still an important amendment. tricare spends billions of dollars out of the dod budget. those hospitals that want to contract with tricare have to have certain quality standards. ist this amendment does require those hospitals to certify and have policies in case of an abortion or attempted abortion that attempts and a child born alive. there would have policies to have the child resuscitated. it is different from the child born alive act. if you want to receive money from tricare money that you have to have this policy in place. there are dozens, many more of dozens of policies these hospitals have in place to indicate quality. this is not overly burdensome. the argument will be made that this never occurs.

plus the head of the national governors association, maryland's republican governor larry hogan who had some sharp words for the president today, he'll be joining us later as well. joining me now is nbc's blayne alexander from atlanta. blayne, it's talk about this decision by governor kemp to forbid mayors and county leaders from ordering face coverings around the state. what's the reaction there, especially from atlanta's mayor? >> reporter: well, the reaction for those local leaders who have already put those measures into place, not very happy. i spoke with the mayor's office, atlanta mayor's office earlier today. they said despite the governor's order, their mask ordinance here locally is going to remain in place. a spokesperson from her office essentially said they're going to continue to use science and data to drive their decisions and adding, masks save lives. let's talk about the governor's decision around this. really this kind of is very much in line with what he's been saying all along, andrea, saying that local municipalities are not able to put in place actions or orders t

how do we -- you know, in maryland, i'm in the bluest state in america. just re-elected overwhelmingly by reaching out and trying to find the middle ground where people can stay together and avoiding divisive rhetoric, winning suburban women, winning over independents and winning with minority votes, and that's something the republican party will have to look to. we're going to have to find a way to appeal to more people and have a bigger tent. >> do you think this roger stone commutation is one of those things that just sets the party back a little bit on things like believing in the rule of law and having some sort of where it looks like there is a double standard, if you're close to the president, you get a break, if you're not, you go to jail? >> there's no question that's the appearance and it's a problem. and, look. roger stone has been convicted of seven felonies. and, look. the president does have the right by law to take the action he took. that doesn't mean he should have, and we've got a guy who is convicted of serve felonies a couple of months
