ms. norton: i want to thank my good friend for his leadership this evening, it's the kind of leadership he has provided since he has come to the congress and for the critique he has just offered. but i come to the floor this afternoon to try to convert that critique into an understanding of the big picture. demonstrations have been going on even though we're days away from when the indictment did not come down. why in a country where you haven't seen demonstrations a-- you have been seeing demonstrations across the united states for some time, why have demonstrations of young people broken out all across america? there is a message here that comes from the demonstrations and from the words of the parents of michael brown. his father pleaded that michael brown not have died in vain. people in the streets are there to see that michael brown has not died in vain. that proximate cause once again becomes color blind. to see that when a young black is os into the street, he not consistently and constantly profiled because of the color of his skin. that emonstrations show and issue, detention sto

ms. norton: mr. speaker, a new generation of young people of every race are demonstrating nonviolently to make sure that the larger meeting of the michael brown -- meaning of the michael a brown tragedy is not lost. his death has become much more than a moment of anguish. michael brown has crystalized a painful experience and it found no outlet until now. the routine stops of black men by police in the streets of our country because of the color of their skin. the body-mounted cameras announced by the president yesterday are a good and practical beginning. let's hope that local communities will use this tragedy to assure a new era of genuine collaboration between citizens and the police, they need to serve and protect them. i yield back. the speaker pro tempore: the gentlelady yields back the balance of her time. for what purpose does the gentlelady from missouri rise? without objection, the gentlelady is recognized. >> mr. speaker, i come to the floor today to speak about one of our greatest nationa

ms. norton: thank you, mr. speaker. i want to say how deeply i regret because i have been working with mr. crenshaw, with senator casey and i congratulate them on this bill, how deeply i regret there would be extraneous provisions in the bill concerning worker protection and offsets that would keep it from being the bipartisan bill that it needs to be. or else you wouldn't see virtually the whole house on the bill. so i've come to speak for the underlying bill and to hope that those provisions will somehow be swept aside and we can have the bill that i think most that signed on thought they were signing on to. because we talk on both sides of the aisle, we're short of personal responsibility. what we've been doing until this time is leaving our disable dependent on their without charities any way to liberate themselves from us or from others. i think about the autistic parent of 20-year-old twins who had to keep them locked up and had no way to liberate them and no way to care for them. most woeful is dependents on char
