we could actually see just what the question to mr brown was the way of sort of this movie that was the way firstly to inform. the manuscript you know do you feel like you've probably were yesterday you in the middle when you've got a little bit you know sean but i guess king initial persuasion used with the you had you put out there was a way of holding and you had me in your room but within going to 3 minutes live course continues its build a graphic of your skewed toward 3rd and then again you are shown. to your viewer to screamy. with you which presumably is of use that if you wish for that when you actually hear. him out at the dealer. your smashed or number that's what the thing quickly what but i was an incompetent absolutely reasonable. to spend the night they don't hold in the snow and covered them with the toppling. i just had to get them up. and we did but wasn't. good for. you so thought. it was a he or the national scale good thing go to where he supposed he was you know which building you look what he you know what you know so when you want one tree you don't you on those

mr. brown: mr. chair, i have an amendment at the desk. the chair: the clerk will designate the amendment. the clerk: amendment number 13 printed in part b of house report 116-383 offered by mr. brown of maryland. the chair: pursuant to house resolution 811, the gentleman from maryland, mr. brown, and a member opposed each will control five minutes. the chair recognizes the gentleman from maryland. mr. brown: thank you, mr. chair. i yield myself as much time as i may consume. i want to first recognize the hard work of the financial services committee under the leadership of chairwoman waters, and also the work and the commitment of congresswoman pressley on the underlying bill. this legislative package reforms the credit reporting industry and improves consumer protections. credit scores play a critical role in the lives and financial futures of american consumers. the information relied upon by the industry is personal to us. things like when we were born, where we live and where we work. this data is some of the most valuable information

mr. brown. the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman from maryland is recognized for one minute. mr. brown: madam chair, i was deployed to iraq in 2004 and served with the most patriotic americans and committed iraqi partners in baghdad, fallujah, kirkuk and mosul. while the justification for that war was fundamentally flawed, our authorized mission was to defend the national security of the united states from the continuing threat posed by the government of iraq. yes, we continue to counter isis in iraq, but the government of iraq no longer poses a threat to our national security. and that is why i advocate for the repeal of the 2002 aumf. we have a responsibility to the men and women who wear the uniform to ensure that the authorized missions they execute are targeted, defined and achievable. we cannot accomplish that goal with a nearly two-decades-old authorization that doesn't recognize the current landscape. with this amendment, we officially end america's 2002 mission in iraq. and with that,

the national television awards were last night and winners included mrs brown's boys, jesy nelson, peakycolin? 19. and they we re how many years, colin? 19. and they were sick with nerves before their names were called out. some surprises, but let's romaine people these are the awards voted for by viewers. that is the big thing, they are voted for by the public, so let's ta ke are voted for by the public, so let's take best comedy. during award seasonit let's take best comedy. during award season it has been dominated by flea bag and it season it has been dominated by fleabag and it won all the awards in the states, but come back to britain and the viewer say, no, we are not having it, mrs brown's boys one. we don't have that clip. tell us what brendan 0'carroll said. he said he thought they had no chance this year because the competition was so strong. they were up against ricky gervais is. he turned up at the awards and you only get someone of his standing turning up if they were tipped off that they were going to win. but he went home empty—handed. there was a big award for gavin and

the chair now recognizes the gentleman from maryland, mr. brown. mr. chair.thank you, i yield myself such time as i may consume. the chair: the gentleman is recognized. like to first recognize the leadership of scott, my potomac partner from virginia, chairman education ittee on and labor, and the hard work, done in thatn work committee to bring this important bill to the floor. chair, older workers are critical to our economy and workplaces. however, six in 10 older americans report seeing or age discrimination on the job. more than half of older workers jobs beforeom their they retire if they find a new -- they retire. a new job, nine in 10 never match their prior earnings. a supreme court created higher burden of proof for workers claiming age another formn than of discrimination. from the t statistics equal opportunity employment commission shows that age complaints has been rising. in the 2000, the eeoc received 16,000 age discrimination complaints. that number climbed to over complaints in 2017 or 23% discrimination claims fired. mr. chairman, my

mr. brown: madam president. the presiding officer: the senator from ohio. mr. brown: i ask unanimous consent to dispense with the quorum call. the presiding officer: without objection. mr. brown: thank you, madam president. three and a half years ago or so, i heard -- i live in cleveland, and i was in my state watching the presidential campaign, and i heard candidate trump repeatedly talking about renegotiating nafta or getting rid of the north american free trade agreement. while i did not support his candidacy and have generally disagreed with most of what he has said and done, i -- it was a bit of music to my ears to hear candidate trump talk about renegotiating or getting rid of nafta because i have voted in my time in the senate and before this, every single trade agreement starting with the north american free trade agreement of two-plus decades ago, i voted no on these trade agreements. i have never voted for a trade agreement because, frankly, every trade agreement coming in front of the house or senate has been a corporate trade agreement. it's been wri

engel: i yield one minute to the gentleman from maryland, mr. brown. the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman from maryland is recognized. mr. brown: i want to thank congressman khanna for his hard work on this amendment. all we have heard from our friends across the aisle this morning is a parade of horribles unsubstaniated. we brought together a bipartisan coalition to reassert in this body our constitutional duty in matters of war and peace. after nearly two decades in the middle east, americans have tired of endless wars. we have lost far too many lives and spent far too much money with little progress. president trump's reckless escalations with iran and his abandonment of our allies have made america and the world less safe. he has no strategy to counter iran's nuclear ambitions or deter iranian aggression and malign influence. his rhetoric has put our troops in harm's way, and isolated the united states on the world stage. with this amendment, we assert on amendment, we assert that war with iran is no in the best interest of our country. the presi

mr. brown for telling us about your family. the story is a very moving one. it's unbelievable to me what you have been through. i know many people across america experienced struggle similar to yours and i thank you for us sharing your personal story. it's not easy to do. the story of caring for a loved one like your mother. ms. brown, dr. brown we know 60% of all caregivers are women and we know for low income women caregiving is associated with an increased risk of poverty. ms. brown as a black woman studying to be a doctor taking out loans to care for your mother can you share more about the challenges you faced? >> i thank you for that wonderful introduction to your question and gas in terms of the challenges that they faced in addition to the financial strain there is also the challenge of thinking about my future and having my future put at risk multiple times over the course of my lifetime because of the gaps in health care. another big challenge has been with my family. all of us have h

mr. brown. mr. burr. ms. cant well. >> all right they'll take the vote now. you're watching the senate impeachment trial of president trump. i'm don lemon. the debate running late into the night. they didn't expect this. they are voting now on a democratic amendment to subpoena pentagon records and documents. so far the republicans senatos have been voting all night. strictly along party lines. against every request for more evidence. to subpoena witnesses and documents. so it will take a while to vote. we'll get back to it when they get back to it. i have a team of experts here. let's get to it. i want to get to you john. i have been involved in impeachment of course with nixon. he resigned before the impeachment papers were being drawn up. they didn't want it to go this late. they'll vote. this is a surprise. we saw schumer and mcconnell. we can do all this later. >> it's going on because the minority leader and the majority leader are not communicating. and they refuse to cooperate with each other. they're pulling surprises on each other. schumer said i'm

braun, mr. brown, mr. burr. >> we don't want to interrupt this moment so much as we want to explain what we're seeing. 25 groups of four senators each, the full 100. claire mccaskill, having been one of them, what are they signing? >> they're basically signing a document that will be part of history that these are the 100 senators that participated in the impeachment trial. the only other time a senator signs a book like that is when they take the oath of office. so this is a procedure that is limited only -- you sign things, you know, various amendments you have to sign if you're offering it. there's various times you have to sign things serving as a senator. but the only time you have a formal enrollment like this in terms of a book is in fact during an impeachment or at the time you take the oath of office. >> and i'm just being told senator inhofe of oklahoma is not there, giving us a total quorum of 99. he'll be sworn in separately when he arrives, and i assume his signature will be affixed to this. >

brawn, mr. brown, mr. burr. >> they're taking a roll call vote on the tenth amendment. harry litman i want to bring you in on this conversation. last week one would be excused for losing track of all the things going on. but the accountability office said -- confirmed that in holding back that aid the government violated the impoundment control act of 1974, which was put in place while nixon was being impeached to control his penchant for redirecting government money. and it was really saying if congress approves money the president and executive branch doesn't have the right to withhold it or redirect it. now it becomes clear from the documents austin is talking about on july 25th the white house was in overdrive with people contacting lawyers and saying, hey, i think we're not allowed to do this or how do you think we're going to handle this? and what we saw were the political appointees in office of budget and management take advice from the career appointees. in the end if a law was broken a law was broken. >> this has been a theme we found in ukraine. get the polit

engel: i yield one minute to the gentleman from maryland, mr. brown.he speaker pro tempore: the gentleman is recognized. mr. brown: thank you, mr. speaker. president trump's strategy to counter iran has failed. he allowed iran to restart its nuclear weapons program, disrupted our operations countering isis, continues to undermine our relationship with nato allies and has led america to the brink of a new and unnecessary war. as someone who served in iraq i understand the cost of war, how our soldiers put their lives on the line and the impact these decisions have on military families. our founders entrusted congress with the responsibility to declare war. congress owes it to the american people and our men and women in uniform to carry out that responsibility. it's time for congress to declare that war with iran is not in the best interests of the american people. it is time for congress to repeal the 2002 aumf and dramatically restrict the 2001 aumf. until we can do that we must prevent the president from unilaterally committing the united states to y

mr. brown, thank you for the presentation. i know you've been on the job two months. i know what's that like when i became the county clerk. i did not know really what i was doing. but i had to turn the department around. and a lot of things needed to change and that tikes -- takes time. i want to thank again human resources, fire and public health for coming and presenting today. this is such an important subject. as we head into the next budget season, we need to be aware of the tremendous need for these public health and safety positions. and we can't just make cuts because these departments have ongoing vacancies, as we've heard from the departments. they're often indicative of larger environmental challenges. and that's the reason why we have the vacancies, not because we don't need the positions. and i think, too, going forward i will be working with d.h.r. and the departments on is an alert mechanism for policymakers. so when we know like when supervisor walton just mentioned about what was going on at d.p.h. before you came along to fix it. you know, how can w

mr. brown: okay. thank you, mr. president. 2016, just four years ago, fall of 2016, i heard candidate trump repeatedly promise to get rid of the north american free trade agreement, either to pull out of it or to renegotiate it, fix it so that it worked better than it did. and i didn't support donald trump for president. i thinks a. been -- i think he's been a less-than-honest person. but that's not really the point. the point is that i liked what he said about getting out of nafta. i know what nafta did to the presiding officer's home state of indiana. i know what it did to dayton, ohio, cleveland, ohio, canton, ohio, and mansfield and spring feed and zanesville and every community in my state, and -- almost every community. so i welcomed the president saying that. so the reason i thought these trade agreements were so bad for our country is that they were always written by corporate interests to serve the needs of the executives and the major stockholders in the corporations. they never -- in fact, they not only w

mr. brown, thank you for the presentation. i know you've been on the job two months. i know what's that like when i became the county clerk. i did not know really what i was doing. but i had to turn the department around. and a lot of things needed to change and that tikes -- takes time. i want to thank again human resources, fire and public health for coming and presenting today. this is such an important subject. as we head into the next budget season, we need to be aware of the tremendous need for these public health and safety positions. and we can't just make cuts because these departments have ongoing vacancies, as we've heard from the departments. they're often indicative of larger environmental challenges. and that's the reason why we have the vacancies, not because we don't need the positions. and i think, too, going forward i will be working with d.h.r. and the departments on is an alert mechanism for policymakers. so when we know like when supervisor walton just mentioned about what was going on at d.p.h. before you came along to fix it. you know, how can w

engel: i yield one minute to the gentleman from maryland, mr. brown. speaker pro tempore: the gentleman is recognized. mr. brown: thank you, mr. speaker. president trump's strategy to counter iran has failed. he allowed iran to restart its nuclear weapons program, disrupted our operations countering isis, continues to undermine our relationship with nato allies and has led america to the brink of a new and unnecessary war. as someone who served in iraq i understand the cost of war, how our soldiers put their lives on the line and the impact these decisions have on military families. our founders entrusted congress with the responsibility to declare war. congress owes it to the american people and our men and women in uniform to carry out that responsibility. it's time for congress to declare that war with iran is not in the best interests of the american people. it is time for congress to repeal the 2002 aumf and dramatically restrict the 2001 aumf. until we can do that we must prevent the president from unilaterally committing the united states to yet

mr. brown: thank you, mr. president. i rise to talk about an issue that the senate may address more this week. tomorrow we start in the senate finance committee, we're going to take up the renegotiated north american free trade agreement. one of my proudest votes as a member of the house a long time ago was to vote against the north american free trade agreement, to vote against nafta. i voted no on every trade agreement since then because every trade agreement that's come in front of this body was written by corporations, was written by corporate interests for their corporate executives and stockholders. they maximized profits always, every one of these trade agreements, cafta, nafta, pntr with china, not technically a trade agreement but it quacks like a duck and walks like a duck. every one of these trade agreements, every case has looked out for corporate interests and jettisoned the interest of workers. we see the consequences. corporate profits soar every time. executive compensation explodes upward every time. wor
