as represented from new york state, the world trade center site is located this my strikts. as is much of the port of new york and new jersey, largest port on the east coast. as such i believe my district is ans as an example of why we need to secure our nation including our ports and water ways while also ensuring the flow of legi t legitimate commerce. i was the principal author of many the port provisions of the 9/11 commission act of 2007. i worked closely with chairman thompson and representative ed markey to push for in-fluinclufe 100% scanning. all must be scanned by nonentruce difference equipment and radiation technology before being loaded on a vessel bound for the u.s. unless the secretary of homeland security extends the deadline by certifying it is not currently feasible. in short, this provision requires scanning of all cargo containers before they arrive in this country. we understood that we must not wait to impose security measures until containers reach the united states. scanning containers in the u.s. port is not sufficient. if there is a nuclear bond inside a container and it

still, moderation, low key, he asks all of us to come from new port. now here's ike. this is eisenhower. yeah, the general, the president. i would be glad to report. 14th of september, he sternly reminded him in no uncertain terms that the instructions of a federal court must be followed by a state to the letter. he left it right there. he knows what would have happen happened. it was countered, quickly assuming his awe shucks persona, he listened, and like a snake charming a bird, he began to cast his spell. only a few years earlier, he had been tossed in the english general as the general of eisenhower's invading armies and as he gazed on the hostile shores of europe, he had thanked his god that his personal fate and the fit of the free world rested securely in eisenhower's hands. now and then he assured the president he was all, but a humble subordinate. arkansas, he insisted was the most rationally progressive state in the south and it would be ended if he would just curb the dictatorial processes and his department of investigators. what we need is a cooling off

they convinced the general director of the new york port authority to put into action a bike accessibility plan, a bike plan for the more than 200,000 employees of the new york port authority. so they convinced these men that it would be a benefit to invest in bike accessibility. the thing is, i don't know, maybe you could put out an opportunity to meet them. we are mainly preaching for people who like our message, but i hardly meet people -- the opposition. i don't know, maybe there are some people who are against too much like accessibility in the room here, but up until now, we have not met them. >> back in my town, i meet them very often. one of the most, one of the best arguments concerns air quality and the problem of noise. also, the numbers of young families not wanting to have their kids growing up in town and moving out. they're really looking at what arguments can you put forward to say we cannot continue the way that things are going. >> think in copenhagen, the status of the car has changed. people are not used to having cars anymore. they sometimes use a car and go to a car s

at the same time, we're opening up new ports of entry. the local folks are saying there's not enough customs border protection. i've always said we've done a good job with men and women in green but we need the men and women in blue. especially also since you're also cutting cbp over time by $20 million, how are we goipg to handle that -- that -- those lines that we have. i think that's an issue that would be brought up to you when you go down there to the border. >> yes, in fact, that's one of the reasons i'm going back to the border is to talk with people who lived there about problems that they see. you know, problem with the lines is -- is two-fold. the overtime pay issue, the congress dealt with that last year by allowing us to use the leap system among other things. that will enable us, i think, to better manage the overtime situation, keep that under control better. secondly, we have in the budget, the president has annualized additional port officers that were put in in fy 12. those are being hired and tra trained now. so there sh

they have built new roadways to come over to make another land port, if you will, that i think was, from my understanding, was agreed to by both sides and somehow or another the funding has not come or the cuts in the budget are not making this new land port happen from our side, which is just amazing to see it happening on the other end and nothing from our end. the first thing would be, the locals had asked me to come and take a look at it. obviously, the council people and the county supervisor. so what's going on with that and what can we do because they tell me that it's about three hours standing time if you're a pedestrian to go across that section right now. and i happen to know because i have family in mexicali, so i asked them. what to you think? they said it's taken way too long. two, three hours. sometimes in the summer it's hours out there with no cover. so what are we doing in respect to that? the second question i have for you, madam, is that this january the media reported that two tourists were denied entry to the united states by cbp because of comments they had posted

focus today, the captor of new orleans and architect of union control of the lower mississippi valley in 1862. in my judgment thiezchievements along with the part in the port hud sentence and vicksburg campaigns in 1863 but especially the capture of new orleans, one of the most important northern strategic victories of the war do entitle him to virtually equal status with grant and sherman in winning the war. in the eyes of contemporaries in 1861, however, the allegiance to the united states in the sectional conflict was an open question. although he had served under the american flag for half a century and had fought in the war of 1812 and the mexican war under that flag, a similar record was true of other southern born officers who chose to go with the confederacy. ferigate had been born and raised in tennessee, had married a woman from virginia. after his first wife died he married another virginia woman in 1843. when he was not at sea he lived in norfolk. he had a brother in new orleans and a sister in mississippi. as a sectional conflict heated up he said to friends in virginia, god forbit i should ever have to raise my hand against the south. but whe

a study produced indicated a 30-day closure of the port of new york, new jersey, would result in the an economic impact on the usgdp of almost $5 billion and loss of 50,000 jobs. whether in new york, in my hometown of the port of houston, houston port or in any of the other major ports across the country a terrorist incident that closes our nation's ports would have a devastating economic effect in the u.s. and around the world. understanding these potential economic growth impact, potential economic impacts, can we afford not to increase the security of maritime cargo arriving on our shores? i want to point back to the assistant secretary and to the assistant commissioner. >> thank you for that, congresswom congresswoman. that's right. this is one of the reasons the strategy is being put forward. in fact, the disruptions to ports, the disruption to commerce and supply chain is going to happen at some point. we've seen it recently with the tsunami and the volcano and with terrorism. one of the things we've tried to do is to internationalize the solution, that is to say we have gone t

oakland is the only port in the united states -- president obama is trying to double exports. if he doubles them here in the bay area, that is about 6000 to 7000 new jobs. the port of oakland is the only port that exports more than we import. i have been trying to talk ed and jerry brown into doing joint export offices in china. we as a state need to have probably a dozen offices in china, and go into the interior. i think that is what we need to do in the region. we need to talk about how we are going to share resources in that way. the coliseum city also would be an amazing opportunity. those of you who are going to ask questions about sports teams -- all three could fit there. i am holding out hope may be for victory park for the a's. oakland remains the center, transportation wise. you are looking at the rail service to sacramento, the most heavily used in the state. or you are looking at the fact that -- where the heart of the bart system. with our good transit system throughout the case -- throughout the bay. with the airport expanding more and more flights internationally, oakland will continue to be a transportation hub. we will be working

the world trade center site is in my district is as of many of the ports in new york and new jersey. i believe my district is an example of why we have to secure our nation including our ports and waterways while also ensuring the flow of legitimate commerce. as you might recall, i was the author of many of the port provisions of the implementing recommendations of the 9/11 commission act of 2007. i worked closely with chairman thompson and representatives to push for inclusion of the 100% scanning provision into the measure, and we were successful. section 17.01 of that act states by july 12, 2012, all cargoes have to be scanned by detection technology before being loaded on a vessel bound for the u.s. unless the secretary of homeland security extends the deadline by certifying it is not currently feasible. in short, this requires scanning up all maritime cargo containers before they arrive in this country. we understood we must not wait to impose security measures until containers reach the united states. scanning containers in the u.s. port is not sufficient. if there is a nuclear
