ms. slaughter: mr. speaker, i'm pleased to yield three minutes to the gentleman from michigan, the ranking member on ways and means, mr. levin. the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman from michigan is recognized for three minutes. mr. levin: i ask unanimous consent to revise and extend my remarks. the speaker pro tempore: without objection. mr. levin: you know, when you boil this all down essentially what this bill says is pay some ills first and not others. i came here because if the rule passes we'll have a full discussion tomorrow, but i wanted to share with everybody the story that i saw this morning. it's accurate. the headline is, john boehner on debt ceiling, let's pay china irst then u.s. troops. that headline in the huffington post is based on an interview with the speaker with bloomberg tv, peter cook. and i quote, mr. cook, doesn't it mean as democrats have suggested that you basically -- you're basically choosing to pay china before you pay u.s. troops? the speaker, in quotes,

ms. ruemmler but they don't think about anything more than the legal issues. it's an investigation. we are not going to share the conclusions. you don't have to. just give a heads up and do crisis management planning. >> so, davis gets hammered by obama acolytes for saying that. i don't get it so the white house strategy is clear. the president did not know anything about the irs targeting conservative groups. even though his top advisors did. also new information from the daily caller web site, it says ms. ruemmler met with christophered me, chief counsel for the treasury department which overseas the irs three times last fall. the two had never met one-on-one before. ed me is a long time left-wing activist who apparently knew about the irs investigation a year ago. it's clear ms. ruemmler and mr. mead must testify in front of congress and white house chief of staff mcdonough must as well. the country needs their sworn testimony. especially after lois lerner who oversaw the irs abuse too

ms. forbes? >> good afternoon again. charter section 9.1 18 requires that the board of supervisors approve design service contracts in excess of at or in excess of $10 million. kaplan mclaughlin architects [speaker not understood] were selected through a competitive process for design services on the cruise ship terminal back in 2009, november of 2009. the contract has been amended five times through dpw as the project progressed. the final proposed -- the final and sixth amendment would increase the contract from 9.v 95 million to 11.[speaker not understood] million triggering board of supervisors approval. this is included in the proposed cruise terminal budget. the budget analyst has looked at the contract and the reason for the changes ~ and finds them to be reasonable. and the additional contract will be used for phase 2 -- the amendment will be used for phase 2 of the cruise ship terminal project so we request that you approve -- you authorize our executive director to execute this final amendment. >> okay, thank y

ms. slaughter: i yield 30 seconds. mr. andrews: this bill will probably pass the floor. it will go nowhere. and we will be back sometime in late june trying to solve this problem. let's have a democratic vote with a small d. let's let the house vote on all the options and i believe mr. courtney's option to leave the rates at 3.% would and should -- 3.4% would and should prevail. i yield back. the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman yields back the balance of his time. the gentlelady from north carolina is recognized. ms. foxx: thank you, mr. speaker. i continue to reserve. the speaker pro tempore: the gentlelady from new york. ms. slaughter: i'm delighted to yield two minutes to the gentlelady from connecticut, ms. delauro. the speaker pro tempore: the gentlelady from connecticut is recognized for two minutes. i rise in opposition to this bill. why? it increases the cost of student debt for millions of americans just trying to continue their education. it is just another example of the hou

ms. wilson: mr. speaker, it's now been 866 days since i arrived in congress, and the republican leadership has still not allowed a single vote on serious legislation to address our unemployment crisis. that's zero votes to address our nation's most pressing emergency. that's zero votes to address the sequester policies that are making our job crisis immeasurablely worse. yet, yesterday the republican congress to be its 37th vote to repeal the affordable care act. mr. speaker, this was not only a colossal waste of valuable time that could have been spent focusing on jobs legislation, it's a further step in the wrong direction. by expanding access to health care, the affordable care act gives americans more disposable income, creating more customers for our businesses and in turn more jobs. it's time to bring the american jobs act to the floor. it deserves a vote. investigate benghazi. investigate the a.p. leaks. investigate the i.r.s. but, mr. speaker, don't forget our focus, our crisis, o

ms. castor: mr. speaker, the affordable care act is working for families and small businesses all across america. did you know that the affordable care act provides tax credits to small businesses that offer health insurance to their employees and that over 360,000 small businesses have taken advantage of those tax credits so far and millions more remain eligible? speaking of young people, in the state of florida alone, over 224,000 young people have been able to have health insurance because they've now been able to stay on their parents' policy. 1.3 million floridians have received $124 million in rebates from insurance companies, an average of $168 per family, because of important consumer protection provisions in the law that say insurance companies can't charge families too much. medicare is stronger, the doughnut hole is closing and the affordable care act is a god send to so many families who have pre-existing conditions, whether it's cancer or diabetes or some other chronic condition. let's c

i also understand from the city attorney there needs to be a technical correction to the title and ms. warren you want to commit on that. >> yes. the title has a phrase in that that should ever come out and that phrase is providing for the board to make the final sequa decision requiring action regarding sequa appeals. >> thank you so after public comment i'll be asking the count i committee to adopt the amendment and i'll all the one by ms. warren. >> thank you, mr. chewy want to take a moment and thank our deputy city attorney and as well as all the public stakeholders after the amendments we offered two years ago, i brought more amendments to continue to insure that when the planning depended are making decisions those are properly noticed to the public. so i brought some additional amendments to run through. those are fairly technical but for the record i have an amendment that will be adopted to modify section 34 i that helps to modify the sequa decision and this will be provided on its website and in other manners as well. another amendment will provide in section 38.08 d that o

ms.'s about to stand up, i believe, she's going to be taking the oath shortly. your 're going to wait for thato happen and we're waiting for her to stand up and take the fifth. and you're saying that this irs scandal drags through the summer. does it reach the point where it interrupts the president's agenda, specifically when it comes to obamacare? >> well, i think, of course, the president has a number of issues on his plate that distracts from his agenda and obamacare and when you look at who is going to be in charge of putting obamacare in place now in the irs, there is a huge problem. so, as we look at lerner, and ingram and marks, those are three key players in this investigation. mr. miller last friday decided not to take the fifth. instead, what he did was not answer the questions. and you have inconvenient loss of memory. >> are you saying, do you think you've got leverage here? are you seeing any democrats waiver in their support for the president's agenda? again, specifically o

rose and ms. newman for the great report. like supervisor farrell i support the airports efforts to reduce the aesthetics. i want to say i'm looking at page 4 7s of the la report which has the chart of the 57 gross revenues. i think mr. roses is reporting to the last year of the gross revenues and the year before the 2011 where the gross revenues are lower and we're reaching a down turn and he we're back up to the level and i wonder if you can explain the trend is we're increasing the revenue and whichever is higher. i'm sorry. >> to be the best benefit for the city by a what you explain this again >> i should point out that the difficulty for the country were boom years for us we had the fastest growing airports in the world because of the expletive airfa airfare. so we weren't effected the same way as everyone else in the downturn. but we will see a 11 off of the traffic 2013 vs. 2012 we haven't seen a zero increase but the markets are not being opened up and no imply aircraft. so for that reason the competitive air traffic

ms. berry, ms. dejesus and ms. knight are victim in that hearing and not in the best interest of anyone connected with that hearing for them to be making statements to the media while that proceeding is pending. second, and most importantly, ms. berry, ms. dejesus and ms. knight have asked, in fact, have pleaded for privacy at this time so they can continue to heal and reconnect with their families and their lives. you all care greatly about their well being, so, please respect this most basic request. give them the time, the space and the privacy so that they can continue to get stronger. there may be a time at some point in the future that ms. berry, ms. dejesus and ms. knight may want to tell their stories. let me make this very clear that will not be while the criminal proceeding is pending and not be until they tell us they are ready to do so. >> now, again, this public relations firm representing these ladies for free also did not take any questions this day, but we did learn separately from the cuyahoga coun

ms. sheila jackson lee. the speaker pro tempore: the gentlelady from texas is recognized for two minutes. i thank the e: managers of this legislation. i think it should be made very clear since we'll have a general debate that i hope to engage in, that the underlying premise of this bill, h.r. 1406, is two simple points. and 140 undermines this point. the fair labor standards act only incentive provides the incentive for employers to adhere to the 40-hour workweek by paying time and a half. 1406 removes that fundamental requirement and allows employers to pay nothing for overtime work at the time the work is performed. i, too, am sensitive to those who want to join with their families and clearly that opportunity is there. but if you allow this bill to go forward, you take the choice out of the hands of the employee and if you are looking at a boilermaker, those in manufacturing, and a boilermaker can have close to 210 overtime hours, making a certain amount per hour, literally if you for

ms. love -- ms.lofgren: it is my privilege to introduce pastor mark turner from gilroy, california, who delivered this morning's opening prayer. after a decade ago he left his career to answer a higher calling to serve his fellow persons in the ministry and serving others, pastor turner has become a respected leader in our community, making a difference in people's everyday lives. working with local partners and businesses, pastor turner and hundreds of volunteers serve our community through outreach projects that feed children, seniors and underprivileged residents. they help local children through programs that encourage them to be active and strive in success. they bring compassionate and caring services for people in need. answering the call to serve something larger than one's self is a treat we deeply admire as americans. so it's a pleasure to welcome pastor turner to our nation's capitol today and thank him to our country. the speaker pro tempore: the chair will entertain 15 further requests f

ms. anybody who's been around a big bureaucracy, and certainly the i.r.s. qualifies as a big bureaucracy, knows that the easiest answer when you ask the bureaucrats something, the easiest answer is "no" because they don't get in trouble for saying "no." it may not be very helpful or responsive but they don't get in trouble. what strikes me about this idea that there were agents in cincinnati who decided to cook this idea on their own goes against the grain of everything we know about bureaucracies. why in the world would they take the initiative to target political speech unless they thought they either had the explicit or the implicit approval of their higher ups? it just doesn't make any sense otherwise. last week one cincinnati i.r.s. employee told "the washington post" -- and i think this has the ring of truth -- this cincinnati i.r.s. employee said everything comes from the top. we don't have any authority to make these decisions without someone signing off on them. there has to be a

ms. we're in this situation at $16 trillion debt situation because of some irresponsible decisions that were made during the eight years of the previous administration. that's just the fact. . how dare we shoulder future yen rations with such a burden, but when it comes to a $1 trillion debt burden being shouldered by younger americans, what we've gotten is an irresponsible bill, h.r. 1911, that will actually make a bad situation even worse. as representative pocan indicated, i've introduced legislation that would freeze the current interest rate at 3.4%. there are other ideas on this side of the aisle. all designed to deal with making sure that as many americans as possible can go to college, that it is affordable, and they can leave college with a minimum amount of debt, so they can accelerate their entry into society as productive americans. that's really what we want. because the higher the debt burden that the average american faces, young american, the more likely it is that they'll
