mr. cohen, this is a very important hearing. i think we have seen it before with tim mcvey. rabbi, thank you for pointing out my father's sort of i view legacy of 32 bombing missions over the nazis. for the life of me, i don't understand this mindset of hatred and revival of the nazi spirit. that i thought we crushed in world war ii. i was recently there six months ago to see the evil that was perpetrated by the nazis and my father worked to defeat. when i see skin heads and neonazis, and white supremacists, i am con founded how this could happen and it's moral and unaccepted. my grandfather was persecuted by the klan because he was catholic. hate tred hatred cannot stand in this country and we need to unite as a nation. i want to thank all three of you for your testimony. first i want to ask the chief, you had what could have been a similar charlottesville on your hands. you had 3000 people show up to protest a confederate monument. it's foreseeable that both of these factions are going to com

mr. cohen: you all can hear me. first, i want to thank mr. conyers for having set up the hearing that we had when the democrats were in the majority. i participated in those hearings. they were good hearings. they stopped because the republicans are the majority. and like on most things, the republicans care about management and they care about wealthy white men. and they don't care about labor and they don't care about , humans. they don't care about health care. they don't care about injuries and workers comp. it's unfortunate. that's why we're here now because the democrats who are here. what mr. carson said, i could go about a leased car, i could go further but i say it's more like a sharecropper. and sure you all want to play and get paid a lot, but you are -- i love the game. ollie maxom was my favorite from a thousand years ago. the owners are in the boxes and the only injuries they are possibly being subjected to is cirrhosis of the liver and they stay up there and watch the game and hi

mr. sessions: i believe we are bound on that. your -- replieve cohen: i believe your work on cocaine was good. that hearing it to discriminate against the disparity against african-americans and minorities and you ought to look at that. mr. sessions: the net effect of that legislation was to significantly -- cohen: it was good, sir. it may be the better analysis of the 18 to one. it is generally considered a more dangerous drug. cohen: heroine is a much more dangerous drug than marijuana. would you agree? mr. sessions: yes. rep. cohen: 29 states have legalized it for medical purposes. brandeis famously said that the states are the laboratories of democracy. i would hope you will look at marijuana and look at states as laboratories of democracy and see how they have helped. in states where they have medical marijuana, they have 28% lower opioid abuse. i would hope you would take a look at that. mr. sessions: we will be looking at some rigorous analysis on the marijuana usage and how it plays out. i'm not as optimistic as you. cohen: you said was a good

the speaker pro tempore: the chair recognizes the gentleman from tennessee, mr. cohen, for five minutes. thank you, madam speaker. on tuesday, we had the holiday of halloween, and a character came to my house with paint all over their face and i thought they were the musical group kiss. well, they weren't. they were the trump administration disguised as the trump administration is and with the simple logo of kiss. keep it simple stupid. that's what the trump administration's attempts are to the american people. the previous speaker made some comments about regulations and said that the obama administration wanted to stop second amendment advocates from getting guns arbitrarily from social security recipients. well, that sounds good. it's simple. keep it simple. well, they weren't social security recipients. they were social security recipients who had been declared incompetent to manage their own affairs. that's who they said shouldn't get guns, not social security recipients. the previous speaker said something about abortion provider planned parenthood getting their

i'm a member of the judiciary committee and so is my colleague mr. cohen and we have a responsibility as members of that judiciary committee to do historically what the judiciary committee has done and that is to process and to follow the law. look, i kind of see the judiciary committee as kind of the grand jury. so we're going to call the witnesses forward. we're going to call the evidence forward and if the evidence and the witnesses are there and the proof is there, we'll send it over to the senate for a trial. but i think we have a responsibility to call. think about it, if you see a crime, what have we been taught? if you see something, say something. we said something today. >> congressman luis gutierrez, thank you. >> thank you. >>> coming up, the truly amazing moment when the trump administration comes face-to-face with why their tax plan will not work and we'll play that for you after this quick break. hi, i'm the internet! you know what's difficult? armless bowling. you got this, jimmy! you know what's easy? building your website with godaddy. pi

. >> thank you, mr. cohen. >> bill brozzy. >> commissioners, bill brozzy. i'm a resident about 60 feet across the street from this proposed development. and i think i can speak for a good 100-and-some people that we're opposed for various reasons. we understand and appreciate supportive homeless and affordable housing. we thought we were getting more affordable housing in our area. however, our district, including the mission, mission bay and all the surrounding and including the tenderloin, we've goten the bulk of all the affordable housing and homeless housing. we have several other homeless projects in the formerly homeless neighborhood. and this one came as a shock as richard said, nobody advised. who decides this stuff? it came at the last minute as a shock and nobody -- now we hear that there is another one going to be developed just down the street. similar to this one. so, the horse has probably already left the barn. by toured the four other -- three other comparable units, buildings of supportive housing and i must say i found people in each that

mr. cohen: thank you, mr. speaker. what happened today on this floor was a massive tax break for the wealthiest people in our country. over half of the tax dollars will go to people in the upper 1% of the income strata. and the big pot of gold at the end is eliminating the inherentans tax by the year 20 -- inheritance tax by the year 2024 so the heirs of the richest will get millions and hundreds of millions of tax relief. this bill should have been geared toward the middle class. they are getting tip change by a cheap restaurant. while the rich is getting no a.m.t. tax, inheritance tax changes. they get the money. the middle class gets shafted. it's a con job, it's a shame. i yield back the balance of my time. the speaker pro tempore: for what purpose does the gentleman from california seek recognition? without objection, the gentleman is recognized for one minute. mr. lamalfa: thank you, mr. speaker. i rise today to honor the life of korean war veteran jack tolbert who passed away this month at the age of 94. a longt

mr. harry cohen as the lead person at the white house had a hand in the development of these provisions. since we have been meeting, additional information has come out about hundreds of millions of dollars that are being handled in offshore accounts throughout the islands of the and inc in the caribbean some cases there will be no tax charges on them at all. slightest change in these international rules, which are included here, it is not possible without some review and some review by people who may have more expertise and understanding of the tax rolls and regulations than some of the members of the committee and review andunity to do an independent evaluation of some of this. it is clear the majority does not feel they can pass their legislation by following the that thiscedure and amendment as nothing more than a series of patches to try to secure some additional support. these erosion roles may be nothing more than more erosion. what we need to do is be able to evaluate those hands we are not even accommodated with a few minutes to discuss and review and look at the intersection be

mr. cohen: franklin roosevelt was a great president of the united states. he said once the test of our progress is not whether we add more to the abundance of those who have much, it is whether we provide enough for those who have too little. that's still true today for people who follow morality and judeo-christian thought. yesterday in missouri the president said that the tax bill, which is in the senate now, and unfortunately passed this house, would not benefit him at all. believe me, it won't benefit me. you can't believe that. it benefits the billionaires and the millionaires and the wealthy and that's what it's about. of wealth in ty this country is growing and growing and we can't continue to have that. the middle class needs major tax relief and the wealthy don't. and we could draw a bill to do that and do it together. our country is in danger. we need more of wealth in this help in the inner cities to fight crime. we need help all over to fight against natural disasters. people all over our country need help. as paul simon said, a nation turns its

>> there are still a number of individuals, michael cohen, mr. trump's lawyer, we want to bring him back, we want to bring donald trump jr. in. he's not testified yet. >> in a public way? >> i think some of these individuals who is not part of the government, we ought to get a chance to have folks hear his side of the story. i still believe we need to have mr. kushner back before the whole committee. >> tune in to kasie d.c. here at 7:00 p.m. for the rest of that interview. joining me now is former federal prosecutor john lauro. currently a white collar criminal defense attorney. senator warner names a few people who were previously interviewed, michael cohen, jared kushner. do you think they would agree to be interviewed again? >> that's a question they're going to have to deal with. because there's a parallel criminal investigation going on right now that mr. mueller is conducting. so whatever they say before congress will go directly to mr. mueller's investigation, as well. they're not getting immunity to testify before congress, so the questi

that because they have to run television commercials for 2018 but you have people like mulvaney and mr. cohen be very open about the fact that listen, yes, this is going to raise taxes on the middle class. yes, we feel it's right to raise taxes on lower income people to do this tax cut for the very rich an for corporations. the sort of i'm randy language is back and people are open and admission to go after social security disability insurance and trump voters are receiving for nursing homes for parents. they have admitted to go back and do a premium support switch to medicare, the dream of paul ryan. and they're being very open. talking to republican strategists, and i have, they're open and blunt in saying our donors are demanding that we do this big tax cut and if we don't do it they won't donate to us anymore. they're doing this for the very wealthy donors and literally no one else. >> quick last word, bruce, about the debt. we remember president trump campaigning vehemently against the national debt and he was going to bring it down. what does this do to the national debt? >> well, it in

we'll come back and hear from mr. cohen. we'll stand in recess. >>> so, the homeland security committee hearing on terror threats taking a break now for members to vote on the house floor. we'll be back live shortly with q&a with the security panel. >>> the senate is in session now working on the gop tax reform plan which also includes a repeal of the individual health care mandate and oil and gas drilling in alaska. amendment votes are expected throughout the day with a final passage vote likely by friday

. >> supervisor cohen: great. thank you, mr. benson. let's hear from the bla. >> good morning, chair cohen, members of the committee. stephanie campo from the budget analyst office. i want to point out that these -- four of the five resolutions are actually resolutions of intention that does not obligate the board to approve the final resolutions which will be coming back before the board. so 7 and 8 are the resolutions to form sub-project areas for the port ifd on pier 70. there are three such project areas, and to issue bonds against these areas. the ifd to the project areas would commit 100% of the city's property tax and the increment and the educational revenue augmentation fund and property tax increment to the project areas for the 45-year term of the ifd sub-project areas. the issuance of bonds is expected to be up to $973 million over the three project areas over the term. if you look at page 6 of the report, the estimate at this point in time for the property tax increment limit would be $3 billion over 45 years. that's divided

cohen: all right. we'll take that without objection. mr. clerk, item 9, please. >> clerk: item number 9 ordinary naens amending the business and tax regulations and heath codes to require the director of the office of khanna disso collect permit applications fees of $2,000 and annual license fees of $5,000 for the cannabis business permits, authorize the department of public health to impose fees relating to the inspection of cannabis businesses, and establish annual license fees for cannabis construction permits. >>supervisor cohen: ladies and gentlemen, i'm introducing a simple amendment that waives application and first year fees for equity operator applicants. as you may recall, we had a very long discussion tuesday evening with several amendments that were ultimately accepted. of the amendments that were made, includes an equity program that we've created and now has been voted on, and the ordinance before us today supports the typical and necessary infrastructure for evaluating the legal permitting requirements for the cannabis relate

mnuchin and the national academic advisor, mr. cohen, are both from goldman.if you can't convince the organization from which you came to confirm what you are saying that is indicative to me of a bill that just doesn't balance out. no good growth record deficit, no new jobs created in this tax bill is a major liability to every taxpaying american but for the top 1%. i yield back. >> jason smith iss recognized fr questions. >> thank you, mr. chairman. i would like to follow up on some of the comments you made prior and is a cracking made the statement that roughly 29% of americans itemize currently under theor current tax code? >> that is our projection for 2017 and 2018, 30%. >> i've seen around 30% and that is something i want to talk about. all of these deductions with the folks on the other side of the aisle have been talking about that they are all upset they are gone and those deductions would only affectd the 30% for the 29% that itemize, correct? >> to be very precise on this, mr. smith, remember thatt we do have some deductions that are permitted above

mr. buckley and ms. cohen will provide more information on brilliant corners. the tenants may find housing independent of the property owners or brilliant corners. lastly, all affected households are provided and find long-term housing. to that end, we'll work with the mayor's office, city attorney's office and homelessness and supportive housing to sequence the projects and construction negating harmful impacts. this will route back to planning department prior to issuance. once it's complete, will be routed to the other agencies for review without planning department approval. once they retain the approval, they will be sent back to planning. planning will coordinate with the agencies present to ensure that the households have been offered comparable housing. at that time, it will be routed back to dvi for issuance. the property owner created 34 illegal units at 12 different properties, more than triple the number of legal units. the city is able to legalize 22 units in addition to the 15, but that leaves 12 units that cannot be legalized under the planning c

and i took note of the meeting that gary cohen had-- mr. trumps designated person on taxes -- can corporate c.e.o.s, and he couldn't get them to raise their hands they would invest the money. what they said is they'll use it for stock buybacks, for exclusive compensation. we'll see little growth from it. our american corporation would benefit from a simplification of the corporate tax code, and lowering the statutory rate, but not borrowing money from china or the saudis. we ought to be closing loopholes, and very few are closed here. in fact, i think they made the system more complex on the multinational corporations and their investments abroad, and with that new loophole, i think they'll be encouraged to build abroad instead of to bring jobs here at home. even speaker ryan's own republican wisconsin senator ron johnson-- and i think you all reported on this-- said that this will encourage manufacturing to stay abroad. we don't need any more of that. >> woodruff: congressman, how can you and other democrats be confident that you know bett

mr. gary cohen as the lead person at the white house had a hand in the development of these provisions since we have been meeting additional disclosures have come out as a part of the paradise papers about the hundreds of millions of dollars that are being handled in offshore accounts throughout the islands of the atlantic and caribbean. that in some cases there will be no tax charge on them at all. with the slightest change in these international rules which are included here, it is not possible without some review and some review by people frankly who may have more expertise and understanding of the tax rules and regulations than some of the members of the committee have an opportunity to review and do some independent evaluation of those. it is clear that the majority does not feel that they can pass the legislation by following the normal procedure and that this amendment is nothing more than a series of patches on a bill to try and secure some additional support. these international base erosion roles may be nothing more than more erosion. what we need to do is be able to evaluate those
