norton has some more questions. keepsm interested in what the postal service from developing new and innovative contacts. we have fund them off, of course, as a private business. that always allow them to access the private business. issues orany impediments that stand in the way of the post office doing the usual work of seeking innovations, particularly given the unique -- unique in for structure? infrastructure? >> i think the challenge, part of it, is the current law we operate under. it is restricted. >> what about the law? an example, it says the products that we are allowed to enter into postal products and has put a box around things we can do. if we get approached by someone with an innovative idea, if some of these things are against the we'reome of the things working on, some do not fit the model and some are not legal. restrictivef very privacy rules. a lot of data for what goes into the american household with things like imb. statutes thatacy exists. unlike private sector countries -- companies we are

norton in a second. i want to provide the penalties for marijuana possession starting with federal law. 21 usc code section 844 which has simple possession that can provide for one year of in pris prisonment or a fine of not less than $1000. the new washington, d.c. is $25 penalty, federal parkland penalties in fact are a fine or jail term up to six months. there are 26 agencies that are responsible for law enforcement. i have this joint here and this is not a real one so don't get too excited. but i am told by staff this joint, ms. norton, that the penalty is, let's see up to one ounce or less, one ounce is 28 grams and each joint has 1 gram so over 20 joints you could be in possession of. here is the list of penalties which i am submitting to the record. i cannot submit the faux joint. >> did you roll that? >> i had staff do it. >> they have more experience. [laughter] >> but all kidding aside, they are very serious implications to what the district has taken. we want an airing of how this is going to

i had -- in regards, i just want to make a comment to what you said commissioner norton. i can understand that sort of thinking which would get us over a huge hump and serve so many families, but i also see that as disadvantaging the families, that really we need to get to as well because that puts them behind them again. and that's always sort of the balance we're trying not to do -- >> that's not my intent at all. >> of course not. i just wanted to note that because as you were talking about it, i was trying to think that makes sense to try to get a huge, you know, group of our families taken care of, but then that means our other families are waiting. yeah, it's one of those dilemmas that i trust [inaudible] be working through. my first question and comment and that's the only question i have in regards to this survey, you know, in regards to how do we get emails for all of our families as quickly as possible and i'm just going to throw out and hope and assume you're all on this too because this is your area, that we are all still working with our education placement c

there because it's something that does get people very upset, but the hope is that the commissioner norton talks about will be avoided when the community has a full discussion about what the expectations in each school community are. >> i just -- you know, as those conversations take place, what's clearly happened is that, you know, we used to regard wearing hats as something that you only did outside and not as part of, you know, fashion or outfits, except for non school occasions, so i would be interested in what kind of discussions take place about that and especially because i'm also going to anticipate that questions that really do affect policy that will and should be interesting and germane to our discussion should come up in those discussions and would be good for us to hear about them. >> commissioner wynns, commissioner norton, i think you bring up good points here. part of our theory of action is to engage our site leaders, counsels, communities. obviously there are situations where as a matter of student safety there may be certain articlings that students shouldn't wear, but c

those discussions and would be good for us to hear about them. >> commissioner wynns, commissioner norton, i think you bring up good points here. part of our theory of action is to engage our site leaders, counsels, communities. obviously there are situations where as a matter of student safety there may be certain articlings that students shouldn't wear, but communities are best situated to have those conversations and we think they'll come to some agreement. i think the best way to characterize our a preach as going forward would be in more of a defined autonomy. there are certain standards that we want to make sure that everyone has in the district and within those standards, that there is some autonomy for communities to make their decisions, but given that this is a new change, we fully anticipate we will come back to the board at the beginning of the next school year and through a committee that we identify, make a report to the board. what has happened, have we made any major changes, what's the feeling temperature out there. >> commissioner haney. >> yeah, i really appreciate that

norton, i appreciate the extra time. there's nothing more important to me than to try to have all of you be part of it. and, mr. davis, i appreciate your showing the way. my hope is that even if they don't take it from you, that they will, in fact, see the direction that you gave as having value in they will in fact see the direction is some derivative product. thank you, mr. chairman. >> we never message on the lady for the district of columbia. >> thank you very much, mr. chairman. i must say i welcome this hearing on innovation and the postal service and i particularly welcome private businesses who worked with the postal service. i have often wondered about the potential identity to keep the postal service in. and came to the federal government. whereas the essence of being a private business doesn't give you anything cu can go out and fill foyers of or rise as the case may be. most of the downsizing of the postal service had been done by cats. i much prefer us the chairman indicated the innovation to be the rule to

democrat congresswoman eleanor holmes norton.ed to be testifying on the house committee on this may 8th. >> i am. because there should be no hearing on this. >> why do you think the committee has decided to even take a look at this thing? >> this committee -- and i'm on the full committee, not the subcommittee -- has looked at the conflict between local and federal laws on marijuana, and you'll note that 18 states have decriminalized marijuana. we are now simply joining them. but in none of those hearings was any local official calls. now, he's tried to call local officials, and he's going to get at least some or perhaps a police official. >> when you say he? >> that is john micah, the chair of the subcommittee. he's at odds with how the full committee has treated d.c., which is, you know, d.c. things are for d.c. he's respected home rule. john micah is now into way overreach because he's calling -- he's looking at our law, singling out our law. now, our law, as it turns out, has the layover. this is another one of the illegitima

[laughter] but if you're comfortable with legislation along these lines being introduced, then that's the direction we'll pursue and we'll keep you informed. and of course if you have any questions i'll be glad to go through it and/or if there's an interest in proposing any amendments to the language that is introduced, then there's time to have that discussion. >> thank you. >> if i understand correctly then, whatever legislation pertaining to the rainy day fund that is introduced by may 20 would still be subject to the 30 day

one thing i want to add commissioner norton brought it up the first question is disconcerting this is not going to be taking into consideration go it was not going to be reflective and this was just another progress and if there's anything the lcff wanted to have the community drive the process. i'd like to say over the next couple of weeks we really work together to pit this all out there to open up the questions especially with the recommendations that i put forward i want to see deputy superintendent lee if we can show how we're addressing those i know we have a framework but we can have a version that goes to the community that shows the primary recommendations and how we've address that or moved and the el captivities and the second thing i wanted to add real quick was i know that it's incredibly greg's as part of the process one thing i'll flag and we will have this conversation i really like to see us increase the number of sf u.s. staff there was 6 percent students and i'm sure we feel there's so much that students and teachers can add to our understanding of the needs so to t
