mr. washington? >> i'm very supportive and very happy that the city has gathered in support. i'm a resident here all my life 60 years in the fillmore and i have seen the history for over 40 years studying. i'm also echoing what is going on in fillmore. the city and county has to be aware that we are in a state of emergency. if they can move on it, the fillmore is what the whole area is about. not only just marcus bookstore, but that is the beginning. i was telling people when the mayor did his work, he went down to the barber shop and down to yoshi, all of those places have closed down. we do not only need to focus on this. we need a hearing on what the redevelopment has done with the urban renewal because the results of the urban renewal is just an example of what marcus bookstore is about. we have up and down fillmore streets, business after black businesses closing. there is a problem there of all the millions of dollars spent through the era of the urban renewal of the redevelopment. this is just the beginning. i'm hoping and praying that our two sisters sitting in this r

mr. washington would be fine and that's a title he kept.resident harry truman called the white house the great white jalyn president clinton said it was the crown jewel in the federal penitentiary system and president obama said one of the mistakes he made in his first term was failing to break out of the white house and move around the country as much as he should have and he's trying to change that now. we have had this problem. joy at -- george reidy who is invited by lyndon johnson 40 years ago wrote a book called the twilight of the president -- presidency and he said the biggest problem he could see coming for the presidency was being isolated from reality. i think of anything it has gotten worse since then because many of the factors i'm about to talk about. some of them are positive things in the presence day-to-day life. the president has these tremendous court -- perks of office. there is a giant white house staff to do whatever the president wants. there is a 132 household staff members in addition to the political staff. there i

mr. smith goes to washington. jimmy stewart is the innocent guy who is earness and comes to washington, dc and just wants to do good. and the problem is there's all these bad guys out there these special interests and lobbyists that are corrupting him, and we have kind of approached politics in our country that way, at least for the past 40 years. the assumption has been that we have these publicly spirited minded people and we have just got to keep everybody away from them, and if we can do that, things will be just fine. well, i'm going to contend to you that increasingly washington, dc is less jimmy stewart and is more like the soprano's. people hear watch soprano's? a lot of great stories and lines in that. but one of the things you hear is in the shakedown operation, they would say, you're only as good as your last envelope. you're only as good as your last envelope. and what i'm going to contend to you tonight is, yes, we do have some jimmy stewart still in washington, dc, but increasingly we have people tha

mr. crowley: i yield to the gentleman from washington three minutes, mr. mcdermott. mr. mcdermott: i ask unanimous consent to revise and extend my remarks. the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman from washington is recognized for three minutes. mr. mcdermott: madam speaker, when you're not limited by the facts, you can say almost anything on this floor and we're hearing that today. because in the grand tradition of the anti-choice terminology, the title of this bill is an absolute farce. taxpayers do not currently fund abortions. and this legislation would do nothing more than make it difficult for private businesses to provide adequate health care for their workers, restrict how our nation's capital conducts its affairs and generally block poor women from accessing safe and legal abortions. 1963 i was an intern in buffalo, new york. before the hyde amendment, before all the business, and abortions were illegal. and i stood there on the general medicine ward with two women, one with eight children, one with 12 children, who had gotten septic abortions, done in a back alley

mr. levin: i yield the balance of the time to the gentleman from washington, mr. mcdermott. the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman from washington is recognized for 2 1/2 minutes. mr. speaker, what we're engaged in today is what i call loving a bill to death. every legislator knows how you do it. you load it up with a bunch of stuff to kill it. they are still trying to do this. they are not talking about transparency or accountability. it is simply another plan to muck up the path to better health for americans. it's not surprising because the house republicans don't want a health care system that works any more they want a balanced budget. if they wanted a balanced budget, they wouldn't push for health care policies that costs more to get less. america spends more on health care than any other advanced nation, and we get worse outcomes. let me tell you the reason for that. we spend less on social services. instead of helping people to get good food to stay in shape, we pay more for food stamps. we force them to push them into nursing homes. instead of helping people to stay

michael nutter, and he's leading the city through tough economic challenges, and he did get help in washington. mrutter, i appreciate you being with us. and i want you to think about the president's comments, first of all, he was suing that things like the minimum wage up might need to come from the state at the local level. and is that empowerment for you at the state and the city level or a matter of dell grating that responsibility to you? >> i think that the president was very clear that he wants the national wage to be raised by the federal government to $10.10, and he wants congress to be take action other that as soon as possible. >> he did encourage them to do that last year, and they didn't act on it. >> in many instances, the house republicans have to figure out who they're going to serve. are they serving special interest or the people they were elected to represent? just like we have seen the unfortunate expiration of unemployment insurance benefits, which the president mentioned in the state of the union as well. congress need to do its job so other americans struggling can give and g
