i don't know why mr. vega keeps using that word because laura's law is an upfront tool before somebody needs crisis. if they are proven to be a danger to themselves or someone else, a judge tries to get a treatment team and they try to talk with this person and figure out a way for them to stay out of the hospital. we have forced treatment, we have 51/50. my son has been through 51/50 numerous times. he's been slammed with this. this is a horrible experience. laura's law is a tool, only a tool that may help. for whoever can help, and thank god they don't to have go through the other part. i would say the same thing as this officer said is that some people can't help themselves. the not civil to sit here and watch people lose their lives. i can tell you that. i have been in groups for 4-and-a-half years. i have heard many family members. their children are losing their lives, families are in severe stress. we have to find something else. not our 51/50, not our 52/50s. we are waiting for people in crisis before

when you meet the people who work they are, they believe in the same things that mr. vega was mentioning, love kindness, i think that's why we all do this work but there are individuals like my mother, maybe like his son who need a little bit of extra help. i think that sometimes oftentimes clients see judges differently than they see their doctors. they are more line listening to judges than their doctors and than can be a very effective push into treatment, and that sometimes not pushing them in that way prevents them from getting into treatment in the beginning. what i found is that that is the first step to recovery. once they are in treatment, they continue to receive treatment voluntarily. but sometimes some individuals need a little bit of extra help. that's how i see -- actually one thing that, i think it's also important to distinguish between making diagnosis, i think the diagnosis of schizophrenia or bypass bipolar is very clearly state. the fact that one has an illness or not is not in the criteria. >> we have an audience. >> thank you. [ applause ] >> we have

mr. president, many, many years ago i was at an event in las vegas. next to me was a physician, and i was a new senator, and he said, you and congress need to do something about alzheimer's. otherwise you're going to bankrupt america. and with people living longer, there's more alzheimer's coming all the time. we've made progress. we still have a long ways to go. these innovations have the possibility not only to save lives but to save us all billions of dollars each year on medical care. the n.i.h. has made an intellectual and economic leader the world over. everybody looks at n.i.h. as the premier research facility for disease. but the senseless meat ax cuts that we call sequester puts all n.i.h. does at risk. as we, this wonderful great country of ours, is slashing investments in medical research, lashinslashing, our competitorse redoubling their efforts. china -- 25% increase in medical research. we're cutting billions. in just two years with the sequester deal we will cut almost $4 billion. china is increasing theirs by 25%. india by 20%. south k

mr. president, i had the opportunity to appear at a number of events in nevada, and each one of those events, the topic of conversation was immigration. i appeared at an event in las vegaswhere we had 1,000 or 2,000 people on the streets and it was really a moving event. this has always been a personal issue for me as i've said many, many times, mr. president. my father-in-law emigrated from russia. i've seen firsthand with the huge increase in people coming to nevada over the last 15 or 20 years, the large numbers of people who have been devastated by our broken immigration system. i personally devoted more time to immigration reform than any other issue over my career in congress. but each time i meet with my constituents, they're desperate for commonsense reform. each time do i that, my passion for fixing our immigration system which is broken is renewed. mr. president, this becomes personal for a lot of reasons, but i always remember -- and there was a lot of anti-immigration stuff going on here in congress -- i went home to my washington home, and my wife said remember who i am. remember who i -- why i am here. my dad came from russia, or words to that effect. i go
