i have a question to you mr. kelly. >> can the joint projects be looked at again i mean it seems to me to should be 50/50 not 1912 50 did i say the wrong thing. >> one of the things that we we've been looking at trying to found the folks that participated in or to analyze the split we do recognize that some persevered w4 575 some are adhere or lower we'll have to go through a process to open up and spends tons of time and we don't know if we'll benefit from it is something on the table and you know the main thing you can't cherry pick and say this is wrong you have to open the whole thing up this is the one of the things we still have an option and still looking at. >> well, to me joint means 50/50. >> at that point it was joint but the level of you know benefit was determined with the percentage was yeah. i you know wasn't here you want to add something. >> i want to say the name remembering on the other ones on the waterside they pay 66 percent and we pay 33 percent we were trying to find an allegation based on the n

. >> thank you okay mr. kelly. >> so the next just want acca cca barbara hale. >> assist general manager for power i have before you my two weeks update with the cca included in your packet i want to put it on the overhead projector it is the same charter you've seen at each meeting and i wanted to highlight that we have completed the presentation of the program design guidelines it the commission lecturer and presented to the rate fairness board they approved those rates method for setting the not to exceed rates it is moving forward we're positions on may telephone to come to you with the rate proposal and program design description noement we're also looking forward to the board of supervisors having the first hearing on the procurement ordinance date has not been set to my knowledge but the first week in may we should have something to report on that at our next commission month to month i'm available to answer any questions we're on target thank you. >> questions. >> thank you mrs. hale i have a number of spe

. >> yes mr. kelly. >> i want to point out the next commission meanwhile e meeting everyone thought we are that to soap not to exceed rates we'll do that at the next commission month to month i think that was people were accepting that's not the critical path it was the legislation that we working hard with the city attorney and still have to work with the board of supervisors and the bust so for us the lift the next commission meeting when we bring the noifdz prices we went through the rate fairness we've said we have the lead on affordability those are the prices we felt pg&e would have we're all in a good position and on a path moving forward and trying to move forward as fast as possible and want to make sure we're successful. >> we're moving forward but it has to be done in the correct way and the correct method i'll continue to read the speakers names but if you feel that your tune is already been expressed please say so so the next speaker is - >> hi, i'm from the sierra club i'm working on the p

us water we have to look at it closely second based on the conversations with the general manager mr. kelly and ms. howe i've been told no decision to only repair the tunnel it is predicament but i think that is not clear in the materials you received today it was evidence by some of the comments and i think that that clarity should be high priority and understand that completely and where those decision points are and third the lack of progress on mountain tunnel 6 hostilities the mode to have a schedule and budget that was adapted by this commission such information would ordinarily be in the plan this is a successful step for this time after time we've had to adapt those plans and force this commission and the leadership of our organization to reaffirm your ability to meet the schedules and goals and track if i understand that such a schedule and goal to can be made i ask you have this for adoption in may so the customers including the 1 point plus million can be chauffeured this practicing progress can be measured thank you very much that concludes my comments. >> thank you our next spe

mean we shouldn't strife to be the best our work on inclusionary is asked or around the nation when mr. kelly said there was 60 thousand people leaving every year i trust you but i think you said the wrong number i was shocked i think more everyone commissioner antonini people choose to move out people have been forced to move that is a real problem i do want to ask i think the representative from the rent board still here if we have numbers on how many rent control units we lost maybe a tough question i know we didn't have rent control unit and new person moves in is important for the stabilization of that family if we are shifting towards the preservation of people wanting to stay is an important. >> question. >> the numbers are not as you expect expect since we have no vacancy controls we never needed a registration so we have rough numbers offer people that pay the rent board fee so when we look at those numbers we're taking the rent board fee and dividing it by the annual rent board fee and get the number of units that paid and didn't get a refund we've been publishing that as one of the

the early 70s i think he was elected on the first elected school board in san francisco - second mr. kelly tells me. >> after he and he was wanting of the board of education and after he left the board of education he did a lot of civic work in san francisco for which our community should be great deal of he was on the spur board and president of the spur board and sat on the traffic commission and on the board of the friends of the san francisco public library and the yerba buena and was- when you read about him you'll see how much every or he was above and beyond by his neighborhood and survived by his wife of 60 years and 4 children and 6 grounded children a memoriam will be held, and, secondly, mri are a cox born in china and moved to the west coast which was a classic immigration route for russian jews any grandfather did it he end up in the east coast she served on the board of education from 1979 to 90 and the president in 87 and had children that went to the san francisco unified school district and was a palpated president before serving on the board of education and she was with

. >> once again staff and mr. kelly thank you very much and this is just the first chapter of many good discussions guarding commission will take a quick brea 4 . >> to fundamentally dealing with street trees weight are recommendations at the end of the year today is a piece of the solution helping to streamline the trees today's u tied to the development as our neighborhoods grow they become greener and we work closely on the legislation and our office is in strong support we've added two provisions to the legislation one pertains to billboards and many billboards company do the right thing but many don't so we want to make sure we added the controls to keep our street trees we're requiring they submit a tree protection plan to the department of public works prior to compliment of construction with that we're open to comments and respected request your support today thank you. >> thank you. >> commissioners as mentioned the ordinances proposes to eliminate the planning department role no proposing to eliminate the plan

i also understand from mr. kelly that governor wolf may well be on his way here and we may hear from governor wolf and update from mayor nutter and that may be down in the area where dave schratwieser has been patrolling throughout the evening. so i've alerted hill and we expect governor wolf may be on his way here and may have some sort of an update to augment the statement lucy that you just read a couple of minutes ago. >> thank you so much, bruce. stay with us. if exactly. we just continue to follow this breaking news and of course we've been showing all night pictures from former congressman of pennsylvania patrick murphy who tweeted some pictures. he was on that train that was headed from washington, d.c. to new york. let's listen to what he talk bow this former iraq war veteran about what it was like when all of this happen. >> it felt like a bank but then we just -- we, you know, i was facing south. we were going northbound. i was facing southbound. cafe car with a little table area and i felt like we went th

mr. kelly: i have an amendment at the desk i the chair: the clerk will designate the amendment. the clerk: amendment number 7, printed in part a of house report number 114-120, offered by mr. kelly of pennsylvania. the chair: pursuant to house resolution 271, the gentleman from pennsylvania, mr. kelly, and a member opposed each will control five minutes. the chair recognizes the gentleman from pennsylvania. mr. kelly: i thank the chair. my amendment increases the authorized funding for the manufacture extension partnerpship by $5 million and it offsets it by decreasing the authorized funding level for the office of energy efficiency and renewable energy. if our goal is to create and retain more american jobs, there is no better program to fund that than the manufacturing extension partnership. administered by the national institutes of standards and technology with centers in every single state for every $1 of federal investment, this public-private partnership generates nearly $21 in new sales

during a news conference mrs. kellyor the first time since the controversy saying she isn't going with those charges against her. she is denying all of them. meanwhile, david wildstein, another ally to governor christy pleaded guilty to two conspiracy charges. joining me now, michael hill, a correspondent for nj tv. welcome to you. let's look at the statements that governor christy released in which he said the charges make clear that what i have said from day one is true. i had no knowledge or involvement in the planning or execution of this act. now 15 months later it is time to let the justice system do its job. well, michael, the investigation isn't exactly closed, so what's next? >> well, i think the prosecutor still has more work to do. it still has to hear from bridget kelly ask has to hear from maroney as well. there are plenty of things that the prosecutor still wants to know perhaps in this case, and certainly the public wants to know in this case about whether the governor was involved. the governor has insis

kelly or mr. to blink, plead guilty and cooperate. >> based on what they said yesterday, bridget kelly's statement we'll play that a little bit. right now they're in no mood to do that. how strong do you think the case is that the government has put together? >> it's hard to say because the government clearly cherry picked the best e-mails and the best texts here. the defense attorneys very likely will look at this and may claim the e-mails or texts were taken out of context, that there's another entire story, which would play out much differently. and which would show that ms. kelly and mr. boroni are not guilty of this. so it really takes some time. and what's going to happen next is the government is going to have to give over a lot of their discovery, a lot of texts and a lot of the evidencery material they're relying on. at that point the defense attorneys will look at this and make a decision whether they feel the government has enough to prove them guilty. >> i am not a lawyer i'm not a tra

i yield two minutes to the gentleman from pennsylvania, mr. kelly. the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman is recognized for two minutes. mr. kelly: thank you, madam speaker. i thank the gentlelady. this is a very commonsense bill. h.r. 36 being presented by my colleague, mr. franks from arizona and the reason is why do we have to do this? i'm going to tell you something because scientific evidence now shows that unborn babies can feel bane by 20 weeks post fertilization and likely even earlier. because a late-term abortion is an excruciatingly painful and inhumane act against children being born and their mothers. women turning -- terminating pregnancies at 20 weeks are 35 times more likely to die from an abortion than in the first trimester. and 90 more times more likely to die from an abortion at 20 or more weeks at beyond. after five months into a pregnancy, the baby is undeniably a living, growing human and government's first duty is to protect innocent life. because overwhelmingly most americans, i'm talking about men and women, young and old, s

they arraigned former deputy chief of staff, briget spsz ann kelly and mr. baroni.hey were charged for causing the jam. >> i would never risk my career my job, my reputation for something like this. >> former christie ally david wildstein pleaded guilty on friday to two counts of conspiracy and admitted that he helped plot the lane closures. christie is not implicated and says he did not know anything about it. >>> believe it or not, hurricane season is less than a month away now and storm specialists say now is the time to get ready. "nbc 10" had a chance to go inside a hurricane hunter plane at the atlantic city international airport yesterday. hurricane hunters are the planes that fly into storms to gauge conditions and gather data for weather forecasters. the plane came to the jersey shore yesterday as part of a tour to help people get ready for hurricane season. >> any hurricane season can bring just one storm or hurricane to your community and make it a bad year. i can't tell you it won't be this year. >> for the first time this year get this the national hurr

mr. kelly: i thank the chairman. i rise in strong support of my amendment to renew a one-year ban on the obama administration from using any department of defense funds to implement the united nations arms trade treaty. this amendment updates and strengthens the language of my amendments that were entered on the previous two nadas. why? we must always uphold our individual right to keep and bear arms. we also must uphold the sovereignty of the united states over our arms export control system. how do we do this first? the amendment forbids of use of d.o.d. funds to facilitate domestic prosecutions of americans. this is a danger because the obama administration has already engaged in domestic prosecutions of individuals using treaties. this is totally unacceptable. second, my amendment specifically bans the use of d.o.d. funds for a a.t.t. secretariat created for implementing the a.t.t. according to the supporters. appallingly and equally unacceptable a.t.t. backers seek to put the u.s. on the hook toe fund the activi

mr. wildstein admitted that he, kelly and barrone executed a plan to suddenly and without warning drastically reduce number of local access lanes to the bridge knowing full well and inn ten ago this this maneuver would grid lock fort lee. >> i never ordered or conspired with david wildstein to close or realign lanes of the bridge for any reason much less for retribution. >> reporter: well that was bridget kelly's first public statement since she has been known for that famous e-mail, time for some traffic problems in fort lee that got this whole investigation going. she came out friday with a very strong statement not waiting for her public appearance in federal court but allude to go that earlier report that the governor's office ordered by that law firm, very expensive firm in new york, saying that she will no long's how the lies about her to go unchallenge and let those christie staffers quoted in that early governor's bridge gate report to publishly discredit or even humiliate her. both she and the lawyer for bill barronhome. was also indicted on the same charges as kelly called david wil

mr. cook: aaron kelly. >> what is happening with your lawyer security -- is that something you want to come to the floor soon? rep. mccaul: i still wanted to go to the floor. the criticisms were that it didn't have interior forcing. my committee was comprised of a political compromise isis within dhs has jurisdiction over that. there were criticisms -- judiciary has no marked out and passed their bill, so mr. gimlet and i had a discussion. they want the homeland approach bill out of the way because that is creating problems. the bogeyman, so to speak, is not in the room anymore. i think -- the number one issue is when are you going to get border security? i think we are to the american people being done. i see an opportunity -- i talked to the speaker about it. they are trying to galvanize members, a countermovement to at least start the process where -- let's put the border security bill on the floor and get that passed out of the house. mr. cook: maria. >> i was going to ask about security -- i have texas questions. i wanted to follow up on what senator sessions, one of your problems last

mr. wildstein has admitted that he and baroni and kelly he can cute add plan to suddenly and without warning drastic cheery duty number of local access lanes to the bridge knowing full well and intending that this maneuver would gridlock fort lee lee. >> i never ordered or conspired with david wildstein to close or realign lanes of the bridge for any reason. much less for retribution. >> kelly speaking alongside her attorney late this afternoon. kelly and baroni will be in court monday to face charges u.s. attorney says based on current evidence no other charges in bridge gate key words based on evidence. dawn. >> all right thank you jeff. >>> two of philadelphia's fallen heroes immortalized outside a city landmark. geno' steaks honoring fire lieutenant joyce craig and police sergeant robert wilson iii today. both police and fire officials on hand for this special plaque ceremonies they're names added to the memorial recognizing those who gave their lives in the line of duty. it's a geno's tradition the shop owner says he's privileged to carry on. >> it makes me feel good as a philadelphian

mr. cook: aaron kelly from usa today. erin: what is happening with your border security bill?that something you want to see come to the four soon? -- floor soon? rep. mccaul: i still want to go to the floor. the criticisms that it did not have interior enforcement, my committee was comprised of a political compromise 10 years ago, right after 9/11. the judiciary committee has jurisdiction over that. so they were criticisms, it does not do interior enforcement this and that. judiciary has marked up and passed out their judiciary enforcement bills, so we think now that without peace done and the bill out of the way, because that was creating problems as well you know, the bogeyman so to speak is not in the room anymore. i think it is time. i know the number one issue when i go home, when are you going to get that border secure? they look at me to get it done. i think we owe it to the american people to get it done. i have talked to the speaker about it. i'm pushing leadership trying to galvanize members, a movement to at least start the process where we have interior enforcement

we will allow the judiciary system to do what it has to do in terms of brigette kelly and mr.ty to many charges. we will see what he has to say in what comes from this. i think the governor has been exposed through all of this. whether he is guilty of knowing or not knowing to me is secondary. he has been exposed and i think his administration has proven to be a disaster for new jersey citizens. that's more important to me than dealing with the intricacies. the courts will deal with that. >> are you confident that christie didn't know? >> i believe the governor and i think he took immediate action when he found out. this is true leadership. the underlying behavior was appalling. i condemn it but leaders are faced with these types of crises and i think that he took immediate action when he found out about it. >> it's being done in his name. in the name of his reelection campaign. that's what prosecutors are saying. the mayor is refusing to endorse chris chris christie's reelection campaign. that these would feel the impulse to do something as dramatic to get the mayor to endors

mr. wildstein admit that he had barron and kelly executed the plan to suddenly and without warning drastically reduce number of local access lanes to the bridge, knowing full well and intend ago this this maneuver would grid lock fort lee. >> i never ordered or conspired with david wildstein to close or realign lanes of the bridge for any reason much less for retribution. >> nothing came out so far from the official documents now the the defense lawyer is talking like a defense lawyer and that is his prerogative and his duty. >> reporter: you didn't hear the defense lawyer what george willis referring to. david wildstein's defense lawyer who came out friday and said what he had said before that governor christie knew about the lane closings as they were happening and he said quote evidence exists that the governor knows but he didn't put forward that evidence and perhaps that will come out later. however governor christie has said that friday's federal charges against his two and appointees and david wildstein guilty plea says he knew nothing bit. george will went on to say media boredom shoul

mr. christie and it wasn't >> the indictment alleged and wildstein admitted that he, and kelly executed a plan to suddenly and without warning drastically reduce number of local access lanes to the bridge knowing full well and intend ago this this maneuver, would grid lock fort lee. >> i never ordered or conspired with david wildstein to close or realign lanes of the bridge for any reason, much less for retribution. >> reporter: that was bridget kelly famous for that e had mail that start that had whole federal investigation that got her fired by the the governor. time for traffic trouble in for the lee. time for legal trouble in newark for miss kelly and bill barron whom we will see when he shows up with bridget kelly for an 11:00 o'clock a rainment in newark. george will went on to say media boredom should not be counted out either. he said wouldn't it be fun to have a story on chris christie's revival according to chris christie's big build up after he was reelect in the landslide and then his tearing down after and ever since. a very timely joke from somebody passing by the state hous

kelly: thank you, mr. chair, and thank you ranking member cummings, for holding a hearing on a press issue like airport security. i want to thank the witnesses who took time out of their busy schedules. with the summer travel season fast approaching, our airports will be at max capacity. that means overworked t.s.a. agents and control tower officials. it also means detecting and neutralizing the security threat in a crowded airport can be as difficult as finding a needle in a haystack. this is something all americans and of course my constituents in particular know all too well. the greater chicago area is currently served by two airports. i'm sure most people in this room here today at some point or another has missed a connecting flight or had a long layover in one of our airports. i hear complaints from my colleagues all the time. a culture of delays, overcrowded hallways and long security lines are not only frustrating and inefficient but also unsafe. a need for a third airport in chicago has been know

mr. payne and ms. kellybipartisanship, but really towards success. so allow me just briefly to comment on one or two points regarding diversity and i would highlight that one of the areas is where i form early served as a member of the science committee in years past. we have gathered around science tech technology, engineering and math and we have gathered around transportation infrastructure and i hope by our words tonight that we will find a way to forge a way forward for transportation infrastructure because every one of us needs not only good roads and highways and dams but we need good public transportation, as evidenced by the heinous and unacceptable tragedy of last week, with amtrak. and i might add that i am a space shovenist nasa supporter. many centers are around the nation, it's a job creator, as is infrastructure. and i would hope that we would write a bill and have republicans and democrats support the value of human space exploration. what a pathway for bipartisanship. we haven't gone that wa

mr. liuzza, she got a very good look at the perpetrator. ms. kellyther witnesses who testified they saw a man with a blue steel revolver, 6'0" tall with close cut hair running past them. kevin freeman was 6'0" went by the nickname kojak because of his close cut hair. once all the evidence was examined it was clear beyond imagination that kevin freeman, acting alone, murdered ray liuzza. >> michael and gordon now believed they had a strong case for a new trial. >> we had an evidentiary hearing in front of judge quinlan. and quinlan vacated the death sentence, but he refused to vacate guilt. >> judge quinlan refused to grant a new trial. we were devastated. yes, it was wonderful to have john thomson spared from execution, but we were still looking at a man in his 30s to be spending the rest of his life in jail. >> so you're going to take the death penalty back and give me a life sentence? i was scared to death even more so now. you tell me i'm never going home again? that didn't give me no relief, none whatsoever. i was doomed. >> michael and gordon ap

mr. merrill reece. for now let's zen it back to you, chris. >> that's a pretty good explanation from chip kelly beasley, thank you very much. i think we all know how that tools. >>> our team coverage continues now with natasha brown. she's been with the fans down at lincoln financial field and natasha, i imagine the reaction that was pretty pronounced tonight. >> reporter: very much so. certainly the emotions of the fans was palpable, chris. we can tell that you. mixed reaction here at lincoln financial field tonight. while some fans were certainly disappointed eagles didn't get marriott tax they are excited about tonight' pick. it was all fun and games early on as eagles fans got complete access to lincoln financial field on nfl draft day. but all eyes would soon turn to television monitors inside as the draft picks got underway. >> i think unbelievably but somehow kelly is going to figure out a way to get mariota. >> chants urging chip kelly to do the deal quickly turned into chants for marcus mariota. >> mariota! >> reporter: as the number two draft pick came up, the intensity on the face of eagles f
