as i started to get older, i met my teacher, mr. grant, in third grade. i started to see bah teest my mentor and coach duke. they share a love with me. they help me have high expectation. i learned i can reach my goal. the point is, i am worried about my younger brothers and their experience with school with all these changes. i fear that my brothers won't have teachers who take the time to get to know them and our community. i ask you, mr. garcia, and board members, to please ensure that people who are higher in the bay view will invest and care about the children as much as my teachers care about me. please make sure the programs will of about all students thank you. president mendoza: thank you, raquan, good job. honey. [applause] >> good evening, i'm alicia richardson and i'm a fifth grader. education is important to me and my family. although there has been a major budget cuts in california that focus primarily on education, i do believe that there is still a teacher for me and my classmates. in the community i live in, there's a lot of fights and i

language in the legislation as it's written now says -- representatives -- represents as a loan or a grant? mr. frank: a grant. i'm struck by the gentleman from texas. he said it was an excessive loan program and grant program. he made two entirely inconsistent statements in a very short period of time. even for a politician that's a record for self-contradiction. mr. neugebauer: will the gentleman yield? mr. frank: no. i'm finishing talking to one gentleman. i can't talk to two no matter how fast i talk. the chair: the gentleman's time has expired. mr. frank: it will be a loan that will primarily be a grant. the chair: for what purpose does the gentlelady from california rise? ms. waters: i have an amendment -- the chair: the question is on the amendment offered by the gentleman from texas. all those in favor signify by saying aye. those opposed, no. in the opinion of the chair, the ayes have it. the ayes have it. the amendment is agreed to. . any other amendments under section 2? for what purpose does the gentleman from texas rise? >> i offer amendment number 3 as the designee for the gentle

of this board we should look at the documentation and make that determination whether we grant jurisdiction. >> mr. fung is the documentation you're referring to documentation as to whether or not this permit is pursuant to the conditional use snorgs commissioner fung: no, it relates to submission dates, site permit packages, whether they were submitted as talked about or whether they were identical or whether there was really no forward progress in this particular instance. >> i'm a bit confused. if you were as a board to decide to grant jurisdiction i would still not feel clear in answer to the question of whether or not the board has jurisdiction because of the conditional use. commissioner fung: i'm not sure that i'm reflecting that. i'm looking at this more in light of it's no different than a zoning administrator's determination. >> but what is being requested of you is an appeal of a permit and the permit is, from what the zoning administrator has indicated, related to the conditional use authorization. commissioner fung: i think i pushed it too far. vice president garcia: i think we took t

mrs. ramos did not understand what she was doing. we will grant jurisdiction to flush out some of those issues. and this is an application of the fact that it seems doubtful that this letter was written by mrs. ramos. she might have signed it, she might not have signed it. i think that this is within the margins of being in new and i am leaning towards granting jurisdiction. -- i'm sorry, rehearing. >> i think i am wrestling with the issue addressed by vice president garcia. in the last hearing, i had great sympathy for the property owner the. there was a notice issue, this had nothing to do with the conduct by cbs. also the notice to the proper person to was going to be damaged. did she voluntarily give up this right? this letter buttresses my concern and technically this is a new piece of evidence. this is the same argument we heard before. there was not enough votes, 2-3. a technically, this is a new piece of evidence. i am not sure where i land on the rehearing request which requires new evidence. >> i question the materiality for the purposes

of the poor and the president should be ashamed of offering up the community services block grant program. >> mr. chairman, mr. mcgovern asked for time and i won't take more time if you will permit me to yield. >> i appreciate it. i was trying to make a point when i was cut off that people need to understand that sometimes through investments you actually make, you know, you actually reduce costs in other areas. i was mentioning the national institutes for health. you find a cure to alzheimer's disease, the issue of medicaid and it's solvency will never be a problem again. find a cure to diabetes, find a cure to cancer. that's where we should be investing our dollars. it creates jobs, but if we can prevent human misery and on top of that, you know, be able to provide more solvency to some of these programs that right now are difficult, that's -- cutting wic zwroosh he wic. >> head start. >> i think is heartless. >> and a lot of the educational -- >> let me say you all are my favorite team to work with. it could just be we've developed a better relationship. >> every monday we're here. >> i tell

mr. president, grant us your leadership. grant us the leadership needed to restore the strength and prosperity that has been the american's story and has allowed our nation to be the defenders and protecters of democracy and freedom. thirty years ago, ronald reagan delivered his first inaugural address expressing the need to rain in spending and incur the growth and size of the federal government. he said, "doing so will require our best effort and our willingness to believe in ourselves and to believe in our capacity to form great deeds, to believe that together with god's help we can and we will resolve the problems that confront us. for each of us serving here today, i believe it's our duty to arise to the immediate challenge kane resolve the problems which now confront us. it will take all of us uniting behind a common purpose that above all else we must first restore and strengthen our fiscal security, articulate a clear vision, set specific goals, and make the tough decisions needed to bring our nation out of debt and

and with that i grant to the gentleman from california, mr. miller, chairman of the -- ranking member of the ed and work force committee, three minutes. the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman from california is recognized for three minutes. mr. miller: i thank the gentleman for yielding. i thank for his discussion on this legislation on the floor. i rise in opposition to this legislation because i don't believe we can afford to spend $104 million on a program despite what's been said on the other side has been proven time and again to be ineffective and inefficient. supporting poor children is the right thing to do and particularly in this economy it's essential but that's not what this bill does. if you really care about school reform you'll want to help our students, our future, you do it in a sustainable and systematic way. you can't arbitrarily throw money at a small group of students and hope against overwhelming evidence that your ideological will work this time. you can't say that a handful of students deserve special attention. you can

mr. sanchez? >> thank you. scott sanchez, planning department. what we're here for is to see if the board would grant jurisdiction and use the board's ability to reduce the amount of penalties. we assess penalties at up to $250 a day. that can be reduced to no less than $100 a day by this board on appeal. the first enforcement notice was sent on june 15, 2009. the notice of penalty was sent on august 24, 2009. in november 2009 we performed a site visit to remind the property ener about the penalty and they agreed that would file a conditional use authorization. there was a conditional use authorization sup -- submittal scheduled for 2010, but they did not show at the appointment. we later reminded them that penalties were continuing to acue. -- accrue. they scheduled another submittal appointment for january 26. they arrived but didn't bring the conditional use application. we called them in february and reminded them again oar the requirements and the accruing penalties. we did another notice enforcement action in march of 2010 as a reminder. we called them again in may also reminding them. they had

mr. speaker, bill is the conservative plan which would grant power to the indian affairs minister to impose drinking water systems on first nations. mr. speaker, bruce carson was responsible in the pmo for policy and legislative director, he helped develop s11. can the government confirm that this bill was key to his plan to skim off his $80 million share of the $1.6 billion that was desperate to help aboriginal communities? [applause] >> that's absolutely outrageous. the liberal speakers are showing absolute contempt for canadian voters. normally in canada, the winner of the election gets to form the government. now with the liberals. they have some contempt, they want to form a risky, unable government. they don't have the courage to be open and transparent with canadians, rather than spend $400 million on unnecessary election, let's put that money to work for canadian seniors that desperately need our help. >> honorable from winnipeg. order. >> mr. speaker, this is about the prime minister's judgment. how does a man like this get put in charge of drafting government legislation? how does

mr. nelson: we will, ordinarily i would grant that request. i have a speech at another location that should be starting about right now. so i will be very brief. mr. inhofe: i ask unanimous consent that at the conclusion of his remarks, i be considered. the presiding officer: without objection. mr. nelson: thank you. admiral mullen noted that the most significant threat to our national security is in fact the national debt. the nation is in a fragile state of recovery, one that we hope will improve the unemployment situation in our country and that will improve the overall economy. but as we look at dealing with the deficit and deficit reduction, we must in fact pursue a very -- a very important part of that reduction ourselves here within the confines of the senate. the offices and agencies that serve the members of congress have to be reduced along with the rest of the budget. so in order to address the nation's fiscal crisis, i think the senate must lead by example and reduce our own legislative budget, so it is in that context that i've int

insurance industry. >> if you could give me a yes or no, will you approve a medicaid block grant program? >> mr. chairman, there isn't a block grant program that is being suggested at this point, but i know that there is some interest in that. i can't tell you what the parameters might be. i think a block grant has the real danger of shifting enormous burdens onto already-strapped states. >> thank you. i'll yield the balance of my time to dr. cassidy. >> thank you, mr. secretary. one of my concerns is how the state budgets are going to be supplemented. currently, there appear to be crepe i says how much -- says how much a state does get and should get. jonathan gruber, i think, published an article that said in his state about 1.7 million people will be added to medicaid under this plan, so it's going to stress it further. do you see concerns with how the current fmap, smap is constructed? i say that because mississippi gets with a higher fmap about $3,000 per beneficiary. any thoughts about that 124. >> i though there are constant -- i know there are constant concerns about the allocation form

mr. woodall: to grant a rule that could limit the process on the energy tax prevention. any member wishing to submit an amendment must submit an electronic copy of the amendment and they must submit 30 hard copies of the amendment and an amendment log-in form to the rule committees in room h. 312 of the capitol by 10:00 a.m. on tuesday, april 5, 2011. both electronic and hard copies must be received by that date and time. members should draft their amendments to the text of the bills as ordered reported by the committee on energy and commerce which are available on the rules committee website. members should use the office of legislative counsel to ensure their amendments are draft in the most -- in the best format and be certain their rules comply with the rules of the house and the congressional budget act. if you have any questions, i'd encourage members to contact me or members of the rules committee staff. the speaker pro tempore: pursuant to house resolution 189 an rule 18, the chair declares the house in committee of the whole house on the state of the union for f

mr. sanchez today. my understanding is that a change of use must serve the community affected. the residents of russian hill would not be best served by granting this change of use. the density, topography, housing stock, and aging population will suffer with the loss of this parking garage. so mr. sanchez does not feel ignored this afternoon, the project sponsor is also requesting approval of a rearguard variance to reduce the required rear yard of 25 feet by 60% to 810-foot rear yard. since the developer would not be providing sufficient rearguard open space for the new residents, additional demands would be placed on the very little existing public open space in the neighborhood. please do not approve this change of use, and please do not approve this variance. thank you very much. commissioner olague: thank you. [reading names] >> commissioners, i lived at 1170 greene street. i want to talk for a moment about transit first and the transportation impact. i'm a 35-year veteran of transit first and public transit advocacy, right now advocating for the extension of a central subway into the northeast part of the city to improve our transit sys

for us to consider this project, it is not as much branting a -- granting a variance, but having substantive points beyond the word of mr. gladstone -- the architect is not make any attempt to do so. i am not sure when this project was applied for internally. the 2010 code has a slightly different interpretations on doors and stairs. i do not even want to talk about it. i am really concerned about how this project meets the rest of the world. i think the neighbors support and we all support appropriate development where it can be done. at this moment, i do not have enough evidence that this will work. vice president miguel: this whole project and this whole area is exceptional and extraordinary. you first have to find the block. i grew up around it several times. i could not find a minibus stop two blocks away. if there is one, i have no idea where it is. i looked at the muni maps and i still could not come out to be truthful. there is no question in my mind that a 15 foot setback, if this project was going to be built, is an absolute necessity. i took a look at the one drawing that shows the scope of the garage, not ve

grants by $56 billion over the next ten years. it's simply a mistake not to invest in education. mr. president, we are globally challenged for human capital in the delivery of a service or the production of a profit. the boundaries of mankind have largely been erased in pursuit of that human capital, so that an engineer's report is done in india and sent back to the united states for a fraction of its costs. a radiologist's report is done in northern ireland and read at your local hospital by your doctor. or if you have a problem with your credit card as i recently did because there was a charge that wasn't mine, you end up with a call center in south africa. in the pursuit of human capital for the delivery of a service or a product, we are globally challenged, which means for the nation to continue to be a global economic leader, it needs to be at the apex of the curve of intellect, the most highly educated generation of americans the nation has ever had. that's how we're going to grow this economy and prosper and compete in the world, yet the republican budget moves us exactly the
