ms. johnson: i rise to speak on this bill. the chair: the gentlewoman from texas is recognized for such time as she may consume. miss johnson: thank you -- ms. johnson: thank you very much, mr. chairman. this bill does not permit me to mince words. this bill is an insidious attack on e.p.a.'s ability to use the best science to protect public health. and its consideration on the house floor today is the culmination of one of the most anti-science, anti-health campaigns i have witnessed in my 2 years as a member of congress. the genesis of this legislation is the republicans' long-standing obsession with two scientific studies conducted by harvard university and the american cancer society. these studies link air pollution with increased illnesses and death. moreover, those results were confirmed by multiple independent researchers and organizations, including the national research council and the health effects institute. the republican majority has harassed e.p.a. for more than two years in an attempt to get access to the raw d

ms. johnson were speaking of. i know i live in new york. i encounter black folks intimately in terms of friendship and provision as well as on the street, as you're walking around. i went to public integrated schools, and i just never saw in my experience the kind of attitudes and behavior that i see typically depicted about blacks on television and in rioting, and in all media. it was as if-- >> i have to cut you off there to go to another break. we'll continue with that thread. we'll be back with inside story. who gets to be a boy and who doesn't. whether it's zero tolerance at school, punishment for minor crimes, keeping order on the streets. do we assign a danger to the activities of black boys and young men who make them threatening, scary. the answer could be a matter of life and death. stay tune. >> you're watching inside story on al jazeera america 37 i'm ray suarez. whether it's stop and risk. applying a thumping to a young guy instead of booking himmer or a cop pleading that he felt threatened when a young man is injured or dead.

ms. johnson: i yield back. mr. schweikert: have you ever had a moment when you approach the microphone and you got to accept we all are passionate about our views and you heard say, hings that, shall we get your blood pressure moving a bit but let's do this without being hyper ballic and walk through some of the realities of some of the information that's laid out here. i want to respond to something that ranking member johnson said. i want to first caveat, she's always been kind to me, but we have the confirmation from the the . itself and we'll put documents into the record that they're perfectly capable of blinding anything that's confidential, anything that's personal. we have the comments from the administrator mccarthy on march through that they can do this and they didn't see it as a real problem. so let me walk through something else that i'm finding absurd and i'm finding trouble to best way to articulate this. we spent about an hour in our office sort of just searching the internet on this subject and if

ms. johnson son steve richie and his crew and the hundreds of people that responded you know just wonderfully and it also the fire department tom and bryan and rec and park and others were up there at kathy remember talking to the general manager mr. kelly trying to convince him this is serious so i thank him for you know letting the marines loss to respond to the fire on behalf of those people i really do accept this award thank you (clapping). >> and ms. clark it's nice to see you thank you for coming today on behalf of michael. >> it is a pleasure to come to our incompletes meetings i really learn a lot i know it's not always easy but your diligent and i appreciate our backgrounds and expertise thank you. >> thank you very much. >> now the report of the general manager would you like any public comment on that item. >> thank you any public comment now the report with the general manager. >> so as the couple's to give an update on the drought i want to point out that vince cornea and i had an opportunity to celebrate the sort of recycle project at sharp park that was something we've been wo

ms. johnson for five minutes. >> thank you very much, mr. chairman. mr. park, mr. brown summarized your explanation regarding deep dives by saying you had some supervisory responsibilities. did you indeed have supervisory responsibilities? >> i would not douefine it that way. i was an adviser for cms. >> how would you describe your work on healthcare.gov during your tenure there at cto? >> yes, so we're talking about the new healthcare.gov, the marketplace, i'll, again, describe it as i referred to in my opening testimony. i assisted cms in a few different capacities, serving as a co-chair of this interagency steering committee, finding a venue for agencies to work together on issues as part of the hub. assisting with the red team exercise and followup to the red team exercise that summer. serving on, from time to time as a spokesperson, as a liaison, as someone who could help with questions. again as an assistant, as an adviser at cms, and certainly not as the person who is the hands-on project manager running the thing. i was doing this assistant's work as i was

ms. johnson. now i recognize the full committee chairman. >> thank you, mr. chairman.americans have seen first hand the misrepresentations that sur oumd obamacare. first there was the quote that if you like your health care plan you can keep it. then in a video that surfaced last week, m.i.t. jonathan gruber admitted how the administration sold this to the american people, saying, quote, lack of transparency is a huge political advantage. basically, call it the stupidity of the american voter or whatever, but basically, that was really, really critical to getting the thing -- obamacare -- to pass, end quote. finally after a year request by this committee, the administration has agreed to have someone who worked in the white house testify about the lack of security of the healthcare.gov website. mr. todd park was the white house chief technology officer for the office of science and technology policy from march 12 to august 2014. joining the obama administration in the department of human services mr. park was one of the principal architects for the healthcare.gov websi

ms. johnson the speaker pro tempore: the gentlelady is recognized for six minutes. ms. johnson: thank you, mr. chairman. let me thank the ranking member. i rise in strong opposition to h.r. 1422, the e.p.a. science advisory board reformat. h.r. 1422 is a continuation of the majority's anti-science agenda. it benefits no one but the industry and it harms public health. the bill before us today reforms e.p.a.'s science advisory board not for the better, but for the worse. the supposed intent of h.r. 1422 is to improve and foster the process of selecting advisors to serve on the agency's advisory board. but in reality, h.r. 1422 will allow the board to be stacked with industry affiliated representatives while making it more difficult for the experts from academia to serve on the board. the role of the board is to provide independent scientific analysis and advice to the e.p.a. while reviewing the quality of scientific information used as a basis for regulation. my republican colleagues seem to have a fundamental distrust of scientists. from our nation's universities before

ms. johnson for five minutes. >> thank you mr. chair. mr.rown summarized your explanation regarding deep dive by saying you had a supervisory responsibility. did you have supervisory responsibilities? >> i would click >> i would not describe it that way. i was assisting cms, but cms was responsible for delivering the marketplace and the new healthcare.gov. >> how would you describe your work on healthcare.gov during your tenure? >> so we are talking about the new healthcare.gov. i would again describe it as a come as i referred to in my testimony i assisted in different capacities serving as the cochair of the steering committee for the agencies to work together on the issues and supportive of the hub and assisting the red team exercise and red team exercise serving on time to time as a spokesperson and i began as an assistant as an advisor certainly not as the person who was the hands-on project manager running the thing. i was doing this work as i was fulfilling my broad portfolio duties as technology policies at the white house. >> could
