ms. moore will help us understand that concept am a what policies are being implemented now, and what the strategies are that relate to that. it is interesting that she will talk about this because some of the allegations and criticisms that i am sure mr. crump will make is that there is a shoot first mentality and i know we will hear about tamir, about who shot -- i was going to say one second of an absurd getting out of the car. we will talk about community policing and training and police conduct, and i know that she will have some rebuttal and some things to add as to what mr. crump will share with us. we also have professor trulear of howard school, the school of divinity. he served as associate professor of the applied the elegy and director of the school since 2003. he was a visiting the sting was presser -- professor -- visiting distinguished professor. he also held positions at yale geneva college, and jersey city state college. the rest of his bio is contained in the brochure that you

ms. moore: thank you so much. the speaker pro tempore: the gentlewoman from wisconsin is recognized for three minutes. ms. moore: before i start, may i make a parliamentary inquiry, sir? mr. speaker? the speaker pro tempore: the gentlelady will state her inquiry. ms. moore: my inquiry is, has the concurrent budget passed is it law? the speaker pro tempore: the speaker cannot comment on that measure. ms. moore: well, the rule, mr. speaker is really clear. it says that the provisions of the house concurrent resolution 27, if adopted by the house, shall have the force and effect in the house as though congress had -- has adopted such concurrent resolutions. so i'm hearing that we've adopted it. so have we -- in order to take up these appropriations bills, we're supposed to have passed that. i'm on the budget conference committee and i didn't recall that we had passed it, sir. , so i renew my inquiry as to -- so, i renew my inquiry as to whether or not we are operating under a passed budget resolution. the speaker pro

>> ms. moore. >> well, you know, i think two things. one is, you know, there are obviously a lot of things that you want to accomplish and things that you've done and it happens to be a national issue that many young people are looking at. and one of the things that we struggle with, quite frankly, is making sure that we have youth voice in what we do. a lot of things happen at the decision level, you know. how can we get those voices which i believe are the authentic voices and really a part of the equation and if you exclude those voices you're never going to get to it. so i would ask that you make sure that both you and others, and particularly other young people are at the table and that your voices are heard. because if your voices are not heard, we don't get the full story. how do we get this right without the full story, without understanding what are the needs, what are the issues and how can we help? right. so it's absolutely critical. but i also this i that there is hope and that you do see -- you can see change. you know, we

ms. moore: 3 1/2 days of pay loss is equivalent to a month's groceries. people can't afford to do it. it's not only good for our poem, it's good for our economy as well. people won't use emergency rooms as much. there are 1.3 million emergency room visits every year because we don't have sick leave. people won't come to work, pass communicable diseases with paid sick leave. again, the medicare voucher is just a sham, mr. speaker. senior citizens and people with disabilities rely on this for their health security, and i guess the republicans have said it time and again that they would like to see medicare wither on the vine and adopting the provisions in the house budget will in fact accomplish that. so i urge my colleagues to vote for the motion to instruct conferees and i thank the gentleman and yield back. the speaker pro tempore: the gentlelady yields back her time. the gentleman from maryland reserves his time, and the gentleman from georgia is recognized. mr. price: thank you mr. speaker. i'm pleased to yield five minutes to the gentleman from georgi

ms. moore: thank you so much, madam ranking member. i really -- i rise in opposition to h.r. 1195 and not because i don't think it's a wonderful idea that mr. heck has come up with, along with his colleague from the republican side for a small business advisory panel at the consumer financial protection bureau. you know prior to the consumer financial protection bureau, we had example after example after example of wall street preying on consumers and treating working class americans just like an a.t.m. to feather their bonuses. but here today we find yet another not so veiled attempt to defund the cfpb. and i guess i could take the pay-go rules a little bit more seriously if just last week we hadn't repealed the estate tax to the tune of $270 billion for the 6,000 wealthy americans who will benefit from that. it's a tax where only 6,000 people benefit from it. and i'm certainly not looking for a pay-for. i'm just pointing out the hypocrisy with the notion that we have to offset this $9 million for the cfpb. as has been mentioned, the

tom price of georgia, rokita, moll far, van hollen and ms. moore. the speaker pro tempore: for what purpose does the gentleman from ohio rise? >> i send to the desk a privilege red port from the committee on rules for filing under the rule. the speaker pro tempore: clerk will report the title. the clerk: resolution providing for consideration of the bill h.r. 6 2 to amend the internal revenue code to make permanent the reduction of state and local sales taxes, to provide consideration of the bill h.r. 605 to repeal the estate and generation skipping transfer taxes and for other purposes. and providing for consideration of the bill h.r. 1195 to amend the consumer financial protection act of 2010 to establish advisory boards and for other purposes. the speaker pro tempore: referred to the house calendar and ordered printed. the chair will now entertain requests for one-minute speeches. the house will come to order. for what purpose does the gentleman from ohio seek recognition? the gentleman is correct, the house is not in order. members, please take

ms. moore: it has spread for us in other communities. people heard about what they -- we were doing and would come visit with us. we would have other jurisdictions, and help they want to get those programs together and figure out how to do it. i think the question is, is there a network? is it somewhere else in the country, i do not think so? that is why we are delighted to be a part of this conversation. there is a lot that we can do if we were to connect the dots. there are other programs are having, there are faith programs -- communities doing it on their own. how do we connect together? not just in new jersey or in the district, but across the country. to continue the dialogue that we can connect the bridges not just locally, but throughout the country. it is very needed. >> thank you. >> my name is audrey, i am an associate professor. my question is, in light of the videotapes we have seen, where they are shooting people and just leaving them on the ground to die -- what are the legal grounds for police regarding giving lifesaving

ms. moore: thank you so much, madam ranking member. i really -- i rise in opposition to h.r. 1195 and not because i don't think it's a wonderful idea that mr. heck has come up with, along with his colleague from the republican side for a small business advisory panel at the consumer financial protection bureau. you know prior to the consumer financial protection bureau, we had example after example after example of wall street preying on consumers and treating working class americans just like an a.t.m. to feather their bonuses. but here today we find yet another not so veiled attempt to defund the cfpb. and i guess i could take the pay-go rules a little bit more seriously if just last week we hadn't repealed the estate tax to the tune of $270 billion for the 6,000 wealthy americans who will benefit from that. it's a tax where only 6,000 people benefit from it. and i'm certainly not looking for a pay-for. i'm just pointing out the hypocrisy with the notion that we have to offset this $9 million for the cfpb. as has been mentioned, the

ms. moore -- senator moore capito: our state can do that secretary burwell: west virginia is good and some of the other states are good. the third has to do with medicated assisted treatment. sadly for both heroin and opioids we have so many people addicted we have to use medication as part of the treatment. those are priorities we need to work on together. in terms of congress, it's about funding, in terms of the conversation we're having. it's also about something called buprenorfine, how we prescribe and how we control prescribing. at this point in time it's agreed it's too controlled but the changes we need to make we need to make in conjunction with congress. and the other thing is the states make sure they have -- make sure they have prescription drug monitoring plans, pdmp's new york place. we need to make sure those plans are going across states. kentucky does, in west virginia, the boarder is po rouse. and if we can't know what that person in pike county is prescribing, you know, in mi

here's what the president of the national district attorneys association, michael moore said about ms. loretta lynch when he wrote to express his organization's strong support. i quote "as prosecutors facing challenges in the field from human trafficking to gangs and drug traffickers our membership feels that ms. lynch understands the operational nature of these challenges and will be a strong, independent voice at the helm of the department." calling a vote on ms. lynch and confirming her would be a big step forward in the fight against trafficking. it's time to end this delay and obstruction. this extraordinary woman nominated by the president of the united states to be the first african-american wellcome to serve as attorney general should have been approved by the senate long ago. while she has been waiting patiently for a long, long time, we have interrupted the business of the senate to approve the president's appointments as assistant secretary of transportation assistant secretary of commerce, federal mine safety and health review commissioners, the federal retirement threft i

ms. moore: thank you so much. it is very heartbreaking to think that it's been a whole year since our girls, 276 girls were kidnapped by boko haram in nigeria. i think the importance of memorializing this is to talk about the nature of terror and its cruelty, to take these children, these babies, away in the name of religion. it's extremely important for us to galvanize all around the world and to focus on the main thing, the main thing is these are criminal organizations, these are not religiously motivated people. these are people who will maim, cripple and kill anyone for their political objectives. i want to thank frederica wilson for her leadership in bringing us all together today and i pray that -- and mrs. maloney from new york, and i pray that our resolve will be reignited today. and i yield back. the speaker pro tempore: the gentlewoman yields back the balance of her time. are there further one-minute requests? for what purpose does the gentleman from california seek recognition? without objection, the g

ms. clinton: great. thank you. >> and i'm bethany moore. i'm what they call a nontraditional college student. i'm taking business administration, management and i also am doing the continuing ed program here at kirkwood. ms. clinton: that's great. well, first, i want to thank you for having me here and a few of my friends in the college and i just had a terrific tour of the advanced manufacturing laboratory and got to talk with the instructor and four of the students, all of whom are high school students who are doing what you have described as the great opportunity to mix your high school years with college learning and college credits as you move forward and i am really pleased to be at a community college that is so visionary and effective in trying to serve as a bridge for people who are nontraditional but coming back to add to their skills all the way to high school students who are taking advantage of the opportunities and the cooperation between the college and the high school is something i want to see a lot more of. this is a real model for how we can provide more continuous learning

ms but he's really swallowing dope. >> it gets smaller every year, which shows we're doing a really good job over here. >> most of the drugs getting into corcoran arrive through visitation. but for inmates like de mooreconjugal visits are what keep him out of trouble in the first place. >> my wife come on fridays, you got to be 90 days clean. i would lose my friday visit and six months clean to get another family visit and depending on the circumstances, dealing with drugs, a sticking or something like that, you can go a year or two without a family visit. so a lot i can lose. i would never want to lose my wife and kids and here over some nonsense. i try to do everything i can in a positive way to stay out of the way. >> today, hill's good behavior has earned him another conjugal visit with his wife. >> i go spend time with my wife for a couple days. it's hard to get that privilege, be a lot of stuff going on. fights every day or something. if i have family visits i wouldn't be as careful as i am today. it feels like you're free for a couple days. you're sitting in that two-bedroom apartment it's like you're at your own house. just can't go outside, like a junior high school kid on punishment. just c
