mr. kennedy: mr. speaker, i rise in support of h.r. 2080, a bill sponsored and led by the gentleman from montana, mr. zinke, to reinstate and extend the deadline for commencement of construction on the hydroelectric project involving clark canyon dam. mr. speaker, on august 26 of 2009, ferc licensed the clark canyon dam at the bureau of reclamation dam on the beaver head river. licensees must commence construction of the hydroelectric project within time in more than two years of the license being issued. in march of 2015, ferc terminated the license for the clark canyon dam hydroelectric project. the bill authorizes ferc to reinstate the terminated license for the clark canyon dam hydroelectric project to extend it for six years, the date by which the licensee is required to commence construction. ferc has no objection to this legislation and the energy and commerce committee reported the bill by voice vote without dissent. i hope my colleagues will support passage of h.r. 2080, and i commend the gen

kennedy to new york. also on board this plane today will be mrs. john f. kennedy. e another widow, mrs. martin luther king jr. somehow and in some way, we seem to be sending a great many of our young leaders to their early graves. >> it's been a very emotional period for all of us who have worked for the senator. and personally, the most horrifying thing in these last few days was this morning, when i tacked this black ribbon on to my campaign button, because now i'm lost. i'm desperate. and i don't know where we're going from here. >> when senator kennedy went down, he was trying to speak for those americans, including the young, who feel a need to change many aspects of american life. well, that cause has not been still forever, because even without him, the changes will be made, because they have to be. but nobody knows when, nor how, nor whether the changes will be made peacefully or violently. >> in the meantime, this country has lost another leader. as far as i'm concerned, has lost the only leader that i feel gives us any hope for the future. i mean, what hap

mr. kennedy come and mr. kennedy was also seriously mentally ill. is also a serial bank robber whose comfort level was in an institution rather than being out. he returned one friday night to the district of utah, and he went as instructed to the local halfway house. unfortunately, he was two days early and was not accepted into custody. what he did is he slept on the streets. then he went to the bank he had robbed repeatedly before. robbed again and he sat down and waited for the police to come and get him. he had no other choices as it very seriously mentally ill person with nowhere to go. those two incidents sparked a response in our district as is not uncommon. many of our people in federal probation, federal defenders, sometimes the u.s. attorney's office and other agencies migrate from the state system to the federal system. and i have been asked numerous times why can't we have a mental health court? why don't we have a drug court? and this was eight or nine years ago. and the simple answer at the time was, we never have. so what we did is pi

mr. frederick: well -- justice kennedy: big difference. mr. frederick: their speech isn't silenced. they are paying a service fee so that a -- the exclusive representative can negotiate their health and welfare benefits, their mileage reimbursement, a whole set of things that voluntary teacher transfer policy, the questions about when teachers have to show up, how long their duty breaks dutyfree breaks are during the course of the day. these are all relatively mundane points. i think you would agree with me. and there's nothing in the agency fee process that suppresses the ability of teachers to speak out publicly, and even within the process because the law itself allows for merit pay to be a subject of bargaining if a minority of the teachers can convince the majority that this a position that the teachers ought to take. justice roberts: mr. frederick, your -- i think you would at least agree we're dealing with some sensitive and important constitutional issues. what is the burden on the union that counter weighs against those of simply requiring optin as opposed to optout? at lea

mr. carvin: sure. justice kennedy: what about the answer to justice kagan's questions about the many contracts, perhaps thousands of contracts? would they suddenly be endangered? would they all be void? could you address that? mr. carvin: there is no reliance interest. these contracts will operate precisely the same, the day after abood is overruled, as they would before. justice ginsburg: but what would happen then? mr. carvin: sorry. justice ginsburg: what would happen to the employee who said now abood is off the books? mr. carvin: right. justice ginsburg: i want back the agency fee that i was compelled to pay. that was an unconstitutional exaction. so all of the people who paid these fees against their will -- mr. carvin: when you -- justice ginsburg: have a right to get it back? mr. carvin: no. no more than anybody had the right to get recompensed under citizens united or the commercial speech cases, once you relied those first amendment speeches doctrine there. as i understand it, the court's analysis prescribes

mr. kennedy, if you get elected, you don't have to pass out your own money anymore.ou can pass out the people's. what caused these things to happen? over the course of time, i made a lot of enemies, to be honest with you. people that i made uncomfortable because they force -- i forced them to make choices. why am i telling you this? because when you look at a little bit of the history of this place and it reminds me of when my staff and i, we knew they were coming after us because of all the trouble we made and we'd say, who are these guys? >> that is ohio governor john kasich there addressing the crowd at the dixie convention center in saint george, utah, in his very personal style that he maintained throughout this campaign. >> now to the capitol hill battle over judge maker garland. will he take the late justice scalia's seat or stay on the side lines? it's heating up. our guest is the chief congressional correspondent for the washington examiner. susan, it's becoming a growing issue in the campaign. on monday democratic activists plan to hold what they call a day

mr. lott: when we spoke at the dedication of the kennedy institute, i said, i did not want the world to know. charlie: and certainly your fellow republicans. mr. lott: i was admonished after a speech in mississippi. i worked with kennedy on the issue. a guy came up afterward and said, you did fine, but that part about kennedy? do not say that anymore. charlie: why has president obama less successful than he wished in trying to build a relationship with speaker boehner? mr. daschle: at his core, he has long felt there is nothing he could do that could work. he had mitch mcconnell who, on basically on the first day said, my only job is to make sure he is a one term president. the president might say today, i wish i had done more. the presidents sometimes underuse camp david. i went up there with president clinton, and it was amazing, spending quiet time away from washington. you get to develop a relationship you cannot build anywhere else. charlie: i do not know if it is true, but the president seems to reach out to historians and journalists. president clinton would reach out to members of co

mr. keller: given the higher -- justice kennedy: and i want to know what your position is on that. mr. keller: and justice kennedy, given the greater complication rates from druginduced abortions, the legislature would be permitted to act in that way. in any event, petitioners have not challenged that particular part of the district court's holding that gave them asapplied relief on the druginduced abortion part. in the fifth circuit, they haven't raised that. what they're trying to do on the effects prong is say that the remaining clinics will lack capacity. but the fifth circuit correctly noted that there is no capacity evidence in the record. they didn't even try to take discovery from the nonpetitioner clinics. and indeed, grossman's ipse dixit was in fact ipse dixit. what he did is he looked at the number of abortions and percentages that were being performed. and a year earlier, ascs had actually performed more abortions, and so the inference that they were at capacity cannot be drawn. chief justice roberts: what what evidence would you have put in on the capacity issue if you had

mrs. kennedy sitting still for a tribute like that.laughter] susan: how the world changed in just eight years. since this discussion of politics, this was the cold war era. they were trying to project a certain image. richard: certainly in 1952, when eisenhower was running against a divorced man. only the second time in american history that a major party has nominated a divorced man, james coxe being the first. susan: he got remarried. richard: in 1952, it was seen -- -- was perceived thruman had been in the white house for 8 she was not an activist or an .dvocate i don't think she ever had a press conference. all seen the famous clip of her trying to chris and the ship with the champagne bottle. it won't break. was a one person in all the world that harry truman knew he could say anything to. ike and mamie had that kind of relationship. thee is a reason why eisenhower's are associated with the 60's. >> i was amazed to find that there are certain women throughout history that met their future husbands and understood that he was going

mr. kennedy can i ask you a couple of questions the big theme we're seeing we recognize that sometimes, we can't put those projects in as originally brought to the public we get feedback and changes i want to clarify this one is not a pedestrians high injury situation along this corridors; correct? >> correct. so you so again, the responses to the proposal is not the responded we were having in 5 or 10 years with the lombard corridor we'll keep in mind we'll continue to make changes from the riding public or the neighborhood public in 5 or 10 years wants to see those changes. >> correct we're we don't had had monitor. >> and not walk away the idea the traffic lights i think that peter central subway brought i know that on residential streets the traffic lights there are is a feeling they'll change the character the streets it is not so much will it be safer it changes the nature of the streets we had that concerns with the 5 route i believe we're profiling with the traffic kirnz for one or two locates. >> one or two locates. >> those will be built the next year maybe we can look at how tho
