we should treat mem as other students and this law permits that. >> this bill is not sitting well with others such as tim donnelly. it takes away from dollars from actual californians. >>> it is 4:37. let's check back in with christina. good morning. >> good morning to you, scott mcgrew. it's early out there. you don't have to add x tra time to the east bay commute. we don't have sures coming down. cloud cover coming in from the pacific. we are going to see a mix of sun and clouds. one thing we are noticing this morning, a big difference, it's cold out there. 30s in some cities. 39 in napa. 44 in oakland. 43 in concord. livermore, you need the jacket this morning chlgt leave the umbrella at home. we are in store for a significant warm up. i have the temperatures coming up. right now, maybe you are rolling out the front door. how does it look on the roadways, mike? >> it might be cold but you have to keep moving to keep warm. a 14 minute drive there. closed for maybe another 90 minutes. you can use the canyon road north of the exit. castro valley, no problems for 580. it reopened a shor

i saw the worl world war ii mem. it serves its purpose. i saw it before it was ever dedicated and i put my walking shoes on, walk down to the world war ii memorial a few days before the official ceremony back in 2004. and i saw the place that says "kansas" and i thought about camp canians. can -- and i thought about kansans. i thought of my own dad. i tell the story because the world war ii memorial served its purpose. i walked away from the memorial, used my cell phone to call my dad back home in plainville, kansas, and to -- from a -- from a son's point of view, i unfortunately got the answer machine and conveyed the emergency to my dad, "dad, i'm at the world war ii member yavment i respect you. i thank you for your srvetion and i love you." it's something that sons don't often say to their parents, but it's something that we as americans, something that the world war ii memorial brings out in us, not just to our parents but to all world war ii veterans. we respect you, we thank you for your service and we love you. we had the opportuni

natural disasters have a iddle and an mem end. the fear lingers on and on.t is truly the forever pollution. the nuclear complex. we see many gloves -- we see many examples around the world. we need to keep this in mind when we talk about nuclear weapons and nuclear power plants. einstein said the splitting of the atom has changed everything save our modes of thinking. we have to abolish nuclear weapons. we have to prevent nuclear war. we do not like chernobyl and fukushima, a measure what the fukushima, a measure what the next

they again would get all sort of mem ma going tory and hyperbole from the other side. no changes for those 55 and above. now, many folks, especially on the other side of the aisle, would rather bury their heads in the sand and ignore the reforms necessary for medicare. i talked to a lady the other day in my district. a newly egible medicare patient who canno find a medicare physician. cannot find a medicare physician. the program is broken and is unsustainable. the status quo is unacceptable. what we do is honestly and factually reform the program. medicare program. it is a guaranteed issue to seniors of this country through our program. so by completely repealing and defunding bm become cobama bm c simultaneously move from an era of debt, doubt and depair into a stable and secure future. mr. chairman, i'm honored to support this path to prosperity. >> thank you. now i'll yield two minutes to the gentleman from wisconsin. >> thank you, mr. chairman. i support this budget resution today and thank the chairman and members of the committee and the committee staff for all

at the time it was called the community mem health services improvement act and yet here we are today rolling back funding on these important bipartisan provisions to fulfill campaign promises. we know that prevention programs will openly save our health care system in the future. we did with the prevention and public health fund and the affordable care act was to make a down payment on reducing preventable health care conditions such as diabetes, strokes and heart disease. it is an unprecedented investment that will help prevent disease, detected early and manage conditions before they become severe. by concentrating on the causes of chronic disease, the act helps move the nation from a focus on sickness and disease to based on wellness and prevention. mr. hastings: i yield the gentleman an additional 30 seconds. mr. green: don't let the majority fool you today by saying this legislation is a cost-saving measure. several things that won't with be highlighting in relation to this legislation is a cost-freeting -- is the cost of treating these chronic diseases alone in texas total over

they should expect mems of congress to go into the well and argued forcefully for the position that theydvocate. but at the same time, and i'll probably say more about this later, i think each of us has the responsibility to say to elected officials look, we want you to be a forceful advocate, but we want you to be polite. the words of isaiah are probably still the best,, let us reason together. and we need to kind of keep that front and center. >> keli? >> well, i will be very frank and honest about this, but i will start by relating it to a story. seattle is not a very conservative place, and so growing up there i was a bit like a fish out of water. and i kept my views to myself for years and years and years. and i would find myself at dinner parties, and everyone in seattle, the majority of the people in seattle, because it is known to be a liberal city, assume that everyone thinks the same way. so you go to an event or a dinner party, and eventually politics comes up, and everyone starts agreeing with each other. and then they start to say some really nasty things. and so as a conser
