defazio of oregon. the chair: the chair recognizes the gentleman from oregon. mr. defazio: mr. chairman, years ago people used to refer to the tome stone mentality at the -- tombstone mentality at the f.a.a. where fatal accidents happen, loss of rutter control, other things that could have been prevented with maintenance. we have moved from that point to a more engaged f.a.a., except congress has imposed a tombstone mentality on the f.a.a. at the behest of chinese battery manufacturers and large, you know, firms in the u.s. who utilize those batteries, an amendment was placed into a previous bill that prohibits the f.a.a. from exercising their judgment about the safety of the carriage of lithium batteries on airplanes. instead, we are bound to an nternational convention, the i ko, who is very responsive in terms of seeking lowest common denominator regulation of anything they can. normally we lead the world. normally we would say, no, get this stuff off aircraft. we've lost two 747's, two 747's. they were cargo aircraft. went down because of lithium batteries. it only takes a v

it was from oregon. do you take that as a special sign that it was designed for you to start this company in oregon? phil: i never really thought about it that way, but i will take it. david: your father was a newspaper editor. when he wanted a summer job, he would not hire you. why did he not hire you? phil: he knew me pretty well. there were two major newspapers at the time. he would not hire me, so i went across the street and applied there and got it. i worked there for three summers. david: in high school, you ran. were you a superstar athlete or were you an average athlete? phil: a little better than average, but no superstar. david: you got a scholarship to go to the university of oregon? phil: no. i was a walk-on. david: a run on. your best time was four minutes and 10 seconds for a mile. phil: 4:13. david: suppose i told you today that you had these choices. you could have built nike or run a 3.56 six mile. which would you have per ford? phil: i will take nike, but i did cause and -- did pause.

it was designed for you to start the company in oregon? well, i have not really thought of it that way, but i will take it. [laughter] david: ok. you grew up, your father was a newspaper editor, and when you wanted a summer job wants, he told you he would not hire you. why would he not hire you? phil: well, he knew me pretty well. but, no, there were two major newspapers in portland at the time. the journal, which he was publisher of that. he wouldn't hire me so i went across the street to the oregonian and got it, so i worked there for three summers. david: ok. so in high school, you were an athlete and you ran, but were you a superstar athlete, average athlete, or what would you say? phil: i was a little better than average, but i certainly was not a superstar. david: but you got a scholarship to go to to the university of oregon? phil: no, i did not. i was a walk on. david: or a run on, i guess. phil: a run on, ok. david: your best time was four minutes and 10 seconds for a mile. phil: four minutes, 13 seconds. close enough. david: i ga

the chair: does the gentleman from oregon reserve or yield? the gentleman from oregon reserves. the gentleman from california is recognized. mr. mcclintock: mr. chairman, three points. first, these amendments don't cut the fee support. only the $1 billion in direct taxpayer subsidies that will be paid into this program in the next five years. this program has doubled in cost over the past decade. and all americans do not benefit from this program. let's take the remote communities like those in alaska. this program subsidizes 61 small communities in a state with 259 airports. that means there are roughly 200 airports and 350 local communities in alaska alone that seem to do just fine without essential air service. if alaska or any state believes that air service should be subsidized within their state, they certainly have the ability to do it themselves. so do individual towns. the states choose not to pay for the service. the local communities choose to not pay for the service. most importantly, the passengers themselves choose not to pay the actual cost of the service. perhaps

in particular, the 1942 rose bowl that i wrote about, players and young men from duke and oregon state were all given a rose bowl ring, signifying that they had participated in the story again. i didn't think much of it in my research until i had a military researcher work to get me the military files of a lot of these men out of the use archives in st. louis. and as i reconstructed their lives, and, unfortunately, there deaths as well, there were four men that played in this game who died on the battlefields in world war >> for those who die on the battlefields of world war ii. but interesting three of the four men when they were killed iwo jima the only on their possession on their body was the rose bowl ring they were mailed home to momom and dad and it was years before they made it home to america.ad to relay a story to a gentleman and the halverson's were up in oregon and his father participated and he happened to mention to me when his father five years earlier had the rose bowl ring on his finger but it kept coming up in my research as i was cracking the story. i got a call abou

the gentleman from oregon is . cognized mr. walden: i would yield one minute to the gentlelady from california -- mr. defazio: i would yield one minute to the gentlelady from florida, ms. eshoo. the chair: the gentlewoman is recognized. esch esch i thank the gentleman -- ms. eshoo: i thank the gentleman for yielding. mr. speaker, first i want to acknowledge the hard work that my colleagues, congresswoman speier and congressman panetta, have done along with myself to address airplane noise in our bay area congressional districts. i'm pleased to support mr. panetta's amendment to h.r. 4, which requires the f.a.a. to consider alternative metrics to the current average day-night sound level standard, including actual noise sampling. this will ensure that the f.a.a. has an accurate measure of the noise in communities surrounding airports and allow them to take steps to mitigate it. since the f.a.a. implemented nextgen in 2015, my silicon valley district constituents have been consistently subjected to a higher volume of noise compla

let me yield four minutes to the gentleman from oregon, congressman blumenauer. the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman is recognized for four minutes. mr. blumenauer: i appreciate the gentleman's courtesy in permitting me to speak on this and the element he is put into the record. these are tough issues. the bonneville dam is in my district. i have been involved with these issues for decades. i've watched the give and take. part of what we're facing today is the legacy of our move in to create the bonneville system without really knowing what we were doing when we started. there was a rich fisheries existent, rumor has it you could actually, people claim you could walk across the backs of the salmon when they were spawning. he dams implemented good for producing energy, not good for the fishery system both in term os they have river and the marine ecosystem that depends on it. and it's not just a commitment to the endangered species act and the environment. we're dealing here with commitments to native americans. who have been ill served with their treaty rights.

so important to the diverse agricultural stakeholders in oregon. three weeks ago, congress passed the omnibus spending bill, and the division of the omnibus reflects a bipartisan, bicameral determination to find programs so important over a broad swath of agriculture. however, we understand that there's a possibility that the omb will submit a bill that will target specific programs. are there going to be precisions posed on the budget? if so, what is your advice to the president backs >> i'm relieved i can claim plausible about that and i've had no discussions with the white house about that. that is kind of a recent discussion that maybe cropped up over the weekend last week or the weekend just before the most recent about that. but we've got been included in that and i know there are some staff communications over ideas, but as i said, it isn't something that i am familiar with have been asked about this far. >> would you consider as you enter the dialogue consulting with the committee on what should or shouldn't be in the rescission bill? >> th

so important to stake holders in oregon. three weeks ago congress passed the fiscal year spending bill and the division reflects bipartisan determination to fund programs. so important over a broad swath of agriculture. however we understand that it will send a bill that will target specific programs. if so, what is your advice? >> i've relieved that i can claim plausible denieblt about that and may be cropped up over the weekend last weekend or maybe the weekend just before the most recent one about that. but i -- we have not been included in that. there's been probably some staff communications over ideas but as i said, it's not something that i'm familiar with or have been asked about so far. >> would you consider what should or shouldn't be in a bill. >> that would be the wise thing to do. >> thank you. i did note that you started out by saying you were committed to spending the fiscal year 2018 funds effectively we have a challenging situation in oregon. quite possibly our worst ever drought. they have now -- great. i w

the chair: the gentleman from oregon is recognized. mr. defazio: i yield the gentleman -- the chair: for how long? mr. defazio: 30 seconds. mr. mceachin: this amendment preempts important state level protections to ensure that truck drivers are treated fairly and able to do their job safely. this not only erases breaks but affect all local and state wages with adverse implications from everything from workers' compensation to the minimum wage. these changes would be deeply hurtful and i urge my colleagues to oppose them. i yield back. the chair: the gentleman yields back the balance of his time. the gentleman from oregon is ecognized. mr. defazio: i have time in opposition. the chair: the gentleman has the only time remaining? mr. denham: would the gentleman yield? mr. defazio: no. like you, jeff, but no. look, this is -- i yield myself such time as i may consume. if you simply pick up a load in the port of los angeles and drive 10 miles, that is deemed interstate commerce. the problem i was trying to solve was a narrow amendment version w

as a young white person from a fairly white part of oregon, that is what i knew growing up. i have certainly come a long way from there. you did cover that in a previous segment, as you mentioned. from the book, "frontlines of the television war," how powerful were these pictures as americans were watching walter cronkite or david brinkley on nbc, and they watch the body bags being carried out? marvin: in my opinion, television came of age in the 1960's. in 1968, beginning with the tet offensive in vietnam, followed by lyndon johnson's statement that he's not going to run for then, the killing of robert in the tea in june of 1968, than the effort to quiet down the war, then the democratic convention in chicago. fewer are showing cronkhite and his coverage. -- one in the midst of of the great epoque's in american history. piece, thee of thedinary downfall president, the downfall of a black leader. news was the way in ,hich most people, not everyone but most people, found out about .his country, what was going on television absolutely had a believe that it was -- tv that broug

i grew up in a little town in oregon, portland, to work on the newspaper then down to l.a.. by that point, i had been in vietnam. before i came on, i was looking back. there were four -- four of my classmates in ouroregon who were killed in the vietnam war. one was the 1968 -- clark was 29 years old, dale. these guys i went to high school with. it was a profound effect for me. i was just getting it from knowing that my friends were getting bumped off in vietnam, and that i wanted to go over there. all you had to do was go on campus. i was living and working in l.a. at the time, so i covered san francisco state and the adjoining areas. you could see the rising tide of people protesting the war. host: this is from a cbs radio network added. mr. k in the kremlin. also, you are the author of "the year i was peter the great." why was the soviet union such a fear by the government and american people? guest: by 1968, we were still caught up in what was called the cold war. that was an existential quarrel/fight/argument with the soviet world. the entire world itself was divided by

it is one reason he did so well in vietnam and did so well in wisconsin and oregon that came afterwards. reason he wanted to run was to create an outlet, where antiwar activists are in the party and in some ways, it is the most successful thing he did in six -- in 1968, what gave him a way to be known. in the end, activists were the ones that basically toppled johnson and cost him -- without mccarthy's's performance in new hampshire, i do nothing can do gets in the race. and without them, i don't think johnson drops out. we're looking at the simulcast on c-span3's american history tv, a year in crisis and turmoil. a lot happening that year. our guest is kathleen kennedy tauzin --kathleen kennedy townsend and michael cohen. give us a better sense of mccarthy and why he entered the race and what his personality and clinical standing were like and why he faltered as the primary process continued. guest: mccarthy is an interesting figure. withsky, and intellectual very liberal policies. a very conservative demeanor to him. he believed in the political process. thatn because he believes -- b

that is what happened to max in southern oregon. he was a poet in nation -- and a chef. he was 17 when he got into a car accident and was prescribed opioid painkillers. what started as therapy became self and spiraled into abuse. from prescription pills, he moved on to heroin. his mother was devastated as she watched opioids consume his life. he died of an overdose at age 25. it is hard to look back on his story and wonder what could have been. what if we lived in a society where he wasn't shame for having a problem, or reaching out for help? what if he had access to better treatment? what if first responders have life-saving overdose drugs? addiction is blinded to circumstance, but the high costs of addiction are borne by our children, whose parents are unable to care for them while struggling with substance abuse. right now, the federal government recognizes the problem, that is focused on punishment. that leaves the state to right the wrongs for the war on drugs that has done nothing to address the issues that drive this public health crisis, while our prisons and fos

host: sharon, thanks for your call from oregon. glen allen, virginia, color on the line for independents. alicia, thank you. caller: hi. i definitely do not agree with what he is doing. bombing his own people, but i feel it is none of our business to go in and intervene. there was a massive war, i think a lot of people could get hurt. i think everybody should just come together, instead of trying to star warss -- instead of trying to start wars. host: under to south carolina, john on the line for democrats. is john calling, i have been a democrat my whole life. we have got a president that has got a backbone. fromn't take no crap people that kill innocent people. mr. trump, president trump, is doing the right thing, to go ahead and wipe them out, get russia off the globe, we will have a peaceful world. i am privileged to say mr. donald trump is a good president and he is doing a very, very good job. host: john, thank you for the call. right after this we are hoping to show you the pentagon briefing. we got a lot of details from the

that something were working on in oregon. we're also getting more life-saving overdose drugs into the hands of first responders and implementing creative programs to provide a warm handoff from emergency room to treatment and recovery. in addition to increasing treatment resources, we need to make sure we're focusing on decreasing stigma as well. we must break through the barriers of shame to provide the best treatment possible first and the most effective assistance now. we need to let people know that it's okay to come out of the shadows, that it's okay to ask for help and that there is help that is available for them. at the federal level they're so much that can't and must be done, improving data sharing from the federal to the state level, making affordable generic overdose drugs more available, rejecting a punitive approach to addiction. who knows, maybe this could have saved max life. we know it can save millions of others. thank you. >> i know you and i share, i know your story with your back surgeries and i'm sure th

america will never be destroyed from the outside. >> it'sta oregon, montana, nevaa have indicated they don't want to participate. any sense that any other democratic governors will join this new form of resistance, we are not sending troops down to the border wall? >> it's possible. california surprisingly seems to have remained teetering on the edge. they haven't registered their discontent with the plan. if they went in president trump's direction, it's possible we see other democratic governors. >> if you go along with the trump a administration and you e a democratic governor you arey complicit. thank you. m joining me now for reaction is dan, a republican running for congress in a border district in texas, texas second district. it's a decorated former navy seal. and we have allen ore. commander, i will start with you. you have a situation where the president sees a national security threat based on the status of what's happening on the border. congress won't deliver on. funding a wall. we know there are limitations, but is this an important step and will it help stem the tide? >>

and it's one of the reasons why he did so well in primaries in wisconsin, oregon and that came afterwardsone of the reasons why you want to run was to create this outlet for a few more activists to have their voices heard within the party and in some ways come as the most successful than he did in 1968, he gave antiwar activists of voice and a way to make their views known. those activists were the ones who toppled johnson and who cause him -- without mccarthy's performance in new hampshire, i don't think kennedy gets in the race and without kennedy and mccarthy both in the race, i don't think johnson drops out. 1968 on are looking in c-span3's american history tv, a year in crisis and turmoil. a lot happening that your. from west palm beach, florida is kathleen kennedy townsend and , all theohen republican 1968. give us a better sense of eugene mccarthy, whitey enter the race and what his political standing was like and why he faltered as the primary process continued. host: mccarthy is an interesting figure. -- mr. cohen: mccarthy is an interesting figure. he was aloof, their intellectu

that nation is half the size of oregon, and when it floods, it's a quarter size of oregon. now, oregon -- my home state -- we have 4 million, 4 million citizens. bangladesh already has 160 million citizens. there is no space. that's why these camps, they're crowded onto hillsides, carved into the dirt because there's no place for people to be set up on flat land where it's easy to establish facilities. those five things are what we must do. for our president to be a vocal international leader and bring the international community together, to pass -- second -- the repatriation resolution, third, to bring to the floor and pass the sanctions bill, the burma human rights and freedom act, to send a message to burma and to the rest of the world, to invest in the education of the children, and, fifth, to give strong international support to bangladesh, which is doing all it can but is in a very difficult spot to receive so many in an overcrowded and impoverished nation. ellielie wiesel said, wherever n and women are persecuted because of their race, religion, or personal views, t

for now washington-oregon they are getting some of the rain and just by the california- oregon coast the border right there that's where some of the raindrops are coming in but eventually it will get here and the futurecast pretty much times it out for you to show pretty much cloudy conditions for some areas today and then by the afternoon, sunshine and then you saw that come through quickly so between 4 p.m. and midnight or so, that's when the rain will last and then tomorrow, it's looking minimal, maybe just a few areas of some scattered showers in your forecast. friday and saturday, nothing but clear skies and sunshine in the forecast. the overall picture though definitely shows that there's an active weather pattern happening here with a lot of these storms coming in from the north. sunday, monday another round of rain. that will be a little change on sunday. here's the seven-day forecast: it's going to be a good half of your weekend but sunday, monday is the next round of showers, not too strong. then things dry up tuesday. >>> let's jump to the roads right now. we are accident-

in fact the major surprise was that one strong faction including the representative , from oregon, edith green, they favored direct federal aid to institutions, directly to colleges and universities. this seemed to be the momentum that was going to carry the day. what happened though starting around 1968, the junior senator from rhode island, claiborne pell gained momentum and , support. he came up with a drastically different approach in his -- approach, and his emphasis was rather than providing direct , federal resources to institutions, was to change more -- to more of a consumer model. the idea of need based portable undergraduate grants. and that was the model that unexpectedly prevailed. there are a number of reasons why that might have been. one explanation was universities one, had come under increasing criticism from the public and from members of congress for allegedly their inability to handle student unrest and campus rebellion. the other thing is that in electoral politics, if you are a member of congress, and you approved direct federal aid to one university but not to ano

ron wyden / oregon (d)the reality now is that there are thousands and thousands of individual taxingons.different tax jurisdictions have in some cases conflicting tax laws senator wden says complying would be especially tough for small e-commerce busineses and start-ups.sen. ron wyden / oregon (d)i am going to pull out all the stops as i have since i came to the senate, to protect them from discriminatory taxes and audits that would consume enormous amounts of time.wyden represents a state that is home to many online businesses and digital developers. sen ron wydenthe supreme court has long said that digital is different.this is an unusual case-where liberal democrat wyden and conservative republican goodlatte agreethey both hope the supreme court leaves current law unchangedso congress can find a solution. in washington alexandra limon. coming up at eight.. a texas woman shot and killed...after what she allegeldy refused to do when a man asked her. plus. a proposal causing outrage in colorado... over a push to punish teachers with jail time....for striking. and next. a stunning repo

he did beat gene mccarthy in all the primaries except oregon. he had beaten him in california. think he would have a good argument that it would look bad for the democratic party to nominate hubert humphrey. i think it would have been a compelling case. host: we will come back to the california primary but we go to glen from pottstown, pennsylvania. you are on the air. caller: good morning. my question is to ms kennedy. would you agree every time the republicans gets into the white house we have chaos, economic mayhem and i appreciate your dad and your uncle jack for their good intention and good human being. thank you. host: thank you, glen. ms. kennedy-townsend: thank you. i appreciate that. obviously i'm a democrat so i think the democrats who are a party that believes that government has a role really makes an effort to make government work and work effectively. i think that is a different attitude than some of the rest of the republicans have. i think we all agree we are not really talking about present day politics but i would say the current president is the epitome of b

>> i think it's demagoguery on the part of these governors, especially in oregon.y because they don't like president trump. this is ridiculous because, again, when president obama makes a request for this, everyone jumps. i mean, president trump has some options here. he could federalize the national guard and take it out of the hands of the governors to make a decision like that. but it shouldn't have to come to that. these governors should respect their citizens and the sovereignty of the united states and do their part to help protect the worder. neil: captain, understanding the chain of events here, i'm not sure what precipitated what, but one of the issues was this so-called caravan coming from honduras. you could make the argument that is no longer a reason to send the troops. the president, i think, and his people have said the caravan really had nothing to do with that, but the timing is what has got the oregon governor saying, no, i'm not going along. what is it with the timing that bugs her? >> i think the number's like 37% increase in attempted illegal b

look at the official statement after his election victory today it is true because brussels reminds oregon that the european union is a union of values and that all member countries are obliged to defend these values so that is a sort of appeal and to sort of friend mind organ that he really can't stray too far from the rules but of course he will feel full and as now a lot of right wing populist movements in europe do feel emboldened. and killed will those from the netherlands and of course the german a very quick was there kong regulations on the other hand you see a certain amount of dismay in the circles of social democrats and greens and left parties which say more or less in unison this is a set day for europe because it shows that the none democratic values are gaining ground in europe but as you if you talk about direct pressure in oregon very difficult to do you could sort of hit him was the money because he really depends on money from brussels but you need to change the rules for that and it is almost impossible to do that and he has some pretty strong allies doesn't he i mean h

senator merkley and i have heard that from farmers in oregon. that's why it's so important we move to a system built on common sense, something that will be good for farmers and consumers certainly offer additional consumer choice and if i might build on the memorialized words of nancy wyden because when she said you can buy it in a market the farmers ought to be able to grow it, i think that's good for this bipartisan bill. i look forward to working closely worth you. we will be working with chairman roberts and the ranking democratic leader, this is long overdue. we have bipartisan supporters and we will pull out all the stops to get this legislation passed. i mentioned to the majority leader that those who were involved in this, an impressive coalition of farmers, help advocates and others because they're saying the senate has come to understand what is relevant for this century. the policy so flawed in the past are outdated relics to yesteryear. i am pleased that senator merkley nine can look at colleagues on both sides involved. it's long o
