mr. franklin. as far as economics goes and what i have seen in my lifetime and the decisions i make to vote, i have always been frustrated by what is fed to me as a theory of supply-side economics. you hear politicians say if you cut corporate taxes, if you deregulate, if government decreases regulations, it puts money into the private sector, and businesses expand, and therefore hire. in my lifetime, i feel like i have seen this movie for the third time. it starts out as an economic boom, and then it crests. i guess what i want to ask you is, how much of this economic theory is political, and do you see flaws in it, and how much impact do you think it has on the economy we are enjoying now? guest: a very big question about economics. this argument will continue to rage on. it is political because ultimately it is politicians who make the decisions about how to proceed with economic policy. i think there is a balance. if you go too far in one direction, you hit trouble. right now, in many parts of

mr. franklin. debt that we are talking about here, i'm curious as to who the creditors are and what happens to them when this local bursts? guest: i think if the bubble bursts, we are all in trouble. it will be a global problem. countryt any individual that is going to suffer. we all suffer. host: you talk about space, multiple missions to mars this coming year. guest: this past year was the moon year, the anniversary of the lunar landings. e the opportunity because of the way the planets are aligned to send missions to mars. the europeans have a mission, the u.s. has a mission. i believe it is going to fly a helicopter on mars. the uae has a mars mission, and so does china. all eyes are turning to mars. host: what is the importance of mars and exploring it? guest: eventually some people want to go to mars and send humans to mars. people have the idea of mars colonies. more immediately, it is just a curiosity to find out more about this nearby planet. host: you also write about tech this year. what

mr. franklin, a monarchy or a republic? he said a republic, if we can keep it. i often wondered why he said that and why that would be in doubt, but we see why it is in doubt right now, when the president of the united states has said article 2 says i can do whatever i want. that's a monarchy, that is not a republic, that we pledge our allegiance to every single day. here we are today with the articles of impeachment about to be transmitted to the united states senate. i was thinking this morning and mentioned in the previous public event, midnight of paul receive ear, listen my children, you will hear about an assault on the constitution of the united states undermining the republic for which our flag stands, by the president of the united states. the president of the united states in using appropriated funds enacted in a bipartisan way by this congress, funds that were meant to help the ukraine fight the russians. president considered that his private a.t.m. machine, i guess and he could say to the president, do me a favor. do me a favor? do you paint houses,

mr. scott, my colleagues, for their work on this bill. ben franklin signed the declaration of independence at age 70. grandma moses started painting at age 76. we should never, ever put an age limit on our dreams or the ability to make a living. but here's the thing, mr. speaker, you can be a dedicated employee and having spent decades building a career that you are proud of, taking care of your family, putting your kids through college, saving for your future, and needing and wanting to work and then one day when you're ready, retire with dignity, and then out of nowhere, your life is shattered, your bosses say you are fired. they list their reasons, however you know the truth. you have been let go to make way for a younger employee, and now you are without a salary, without your health insurance, and you know your odds of getting a new job are slim when you are competing with 20-year-old and 30-year-olds who are willing to work for lower wages and fewer benefits. for too many seniors, mr. speaker, this is a reality. nearly three in five workers have

downs in the various process, but they are asking a much more fundamental question, a question that franklin mr. lu would have asked if he were alive today, is this just a temporary downturn in american politics like watergate, like the impeachment of bill clinton from which america will bounce back again, or does this reflect something new that perhaps the american political system has become structurally dysfunctional, so polarized that america will remain so domestically destructive and as a result of it, as mr. lu would have anticipated, the u.s. will pay less attention to the rest of the world and we have to adapt and adjust. i can assure that that's the lens through which most countries are watching this to see how much profound, long-term effect it would have on the united states behavior towards the rest of the world. >> that's a great point, kishore. martin, leaders in the middle east whom you know so well, the prime minister of israel, the president of egypt, the crown prince of saudi arabia, the crown prince of the uae, all have personal and very strong ties with trump. do they worry

mr. franklin might not say that because young people who are to uraged to get degrees, get undergraduate degrees and graduate degrees to be part of a knowledge-based economy, to take access to the best educational in higher he world education in this country would end having them in debt and with a degree that's worthless in the open marketplace. i would think that all members to ongress would want protect both aging workers and defrauded.o are mr. speaker, as you can see, we are on the floor this week to to those that need our help. struggling students and workers our support. not for us to turn our backs on them. urge a yes vote on the rule and the previous question and i yield back the balance of my the previous e question on the resolution. the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman from california yields back the balance of his time. is on the ordering of the previous question on the resolution. aye. in favor say those opposed, no. in the opinion of the chair, the ayes have it. mr. burgess: mr. speaker, i ask nays.e yeas and the speaker pro tempore: the yeas and nays are requested. favo

mr. speaker, i rise today to recognize a franklin high school student, abigail, as the winner of the washington seventh district challenge. my office this year received a record number of submissions highlighting the incredible work of teachers across my district in advancing stem education for all students. abigail's app, which is called climate now, is a collaborative platform that helps users create, facilitate and participate in environmental projects in their communities. abigail recognizedle need for a tool to increase the efficacy, organization and participation in efforts to solve our climate crisis locally due to her involvement in sustainability and environmental justice issues in south seattle. abigail's focus on addressing a public goal serves as a model for all of us to use our creativity, skills and knowledge to benefit the greater good. i am so proud of abigail and i congratulate her. i yield back. the speaker pro tempore: for what purpose does the gentleman from california seek recognition? without objection, the gentleman s recognized for one minute. >> thank you, mr. speaker.
