first, we'll see part of the conference that includes remarks by senate finance committee chair orrin hatch. >> okay, i think we're going to go ahead and get going. if folks back in the kitchen with kind of move up and sort of fill in, that be great. is my audio okay, joe? great. well, good afternoon. my name is luther lowe. i'm the senior vice president of public policy for yelp. and today i am so excited to welcome you all to our inaugural public policy event at our brand-new washington, d.c., office. we also welcome our viewers following along on c-span, on the youtube live stream, and on our twitter #usvmicrosoft20. this upcoming friday marks the 20-year anniversary of the commencement of the united states versus microsoft trial. the trial was a major inflection point in a years-long debate about the growth of and abusive dominance by microsoft. today's oldest millennials, myself included, were in middle school during the microsoft trial, and we have a new crop of large tech companies, one run by a millennial, who now themselves are mentioned in the same breath as antitrust. the purpose

to mitch mcconnell, orrin hatch, ben sass across the board. here is the thing, congress has a constitutional right to regulate trade under normal circumstances, but the law that the president used to do this, which is based on national security reasons, which is highly disputed here, but nevertheless, if congress did want to take action, they would have to do it by veto proof majority. on that, i just don't see how congress is going to muster the votes for this, given this is not the same republican party that we've seen in the past when it comes to free trade. so, i think we'll have to see how this plays out, but one important note i want to mention as well that just baffles the mind on all of this is that i did some reporting a couple weeks ago when this first happened. even the steel workers wanted these tariffs to be targeted. they were concerned about exactly this scenario that it would spark a broader trade war. so why -- we still don't have the answers here as to why.

express a profound appreciation to senator orrin hatch for his years of service to our country and state. he has fought conservative battles time and time again. i will do my best to keep those fights going forward. i look forward to the next stage of this campaign. we will be debating from time to time on the airways and in person. we expect the republicans will go to washington again to represent our great state. get my kids up there. would you please welcome my son josh and his children? randy,ben and his wife come on here on the stage and get behind me. it's them. those grandkids of mine. and my own kids and daughters in law. part ompel me to b this political process. we began the campaign talking about bringing utah values to washington. i get asked now and again, what you mean by utah values? they are the very values our country was founded upon. we believe we are sons and daughters of the same god and we are endowed i our creator with certain unalienable rights. people makehat free better choices than government. and the state government makes better choices than the federal gover

this letter, by the way, was led by my colleague senator orrin hatch and was signed by 11 of 0 you are colleagues. i commend the administration for the executive order yesterday that keeps families together. that's a positive first step but we've got to go further. because of the flores decision we talked about earlier which is again a settlement made back in 1997, congress is stkpw-g to have to -- going to have to step in as well. i think it's likely that the executive order will be in litigation immediately because of the flores decision. the legislative solution that congress enacts needs to address the flores settlement agreement as it applies to children who arrive with their parents. in those cases the settlement agreement currently requires these children be separated from their families and keep in the least restrictive setting possible instead of staying with their families if their families are in detention. this legislation we introduced yesterday called keep families together and enforce the law act, again, has almost a third of the senate signing on. it will provide thatti

i think orrin hatch needs to wake up.e other members of the consensus that's been building around china ever since the late '90s that we need to engage and be open all the rest and it will improve their behavior, it's proved to be completely wrong. ever since we've been engaging economically with china, their behavior has gotten more and more authoritative. they have set out a plan for world domination, economically and militarily. they have a plan to beat us. we need a plan to beat them. i think it's great where standing up to them but frankly i don't think these measures go far enough. i would say we need a complete economic boycott of china. that's the only way to face down this threat. if the world is run according to the values of the authoritarian communist dictatorship led by xi jinping, it's not a world we want >> bret: what happens to all the companies they do business with china? the workers would fill in on the back end customer >> i've heard this argument i made this argument. there's a world of opportunity be
