and padilla did run statewide. but bob is not known statewide. they are traveling the state, putting their name on legislation. and i think padilla has done a good job of keeping his name out there and clearing the field. he's got endorsements from every member of the california delegation. means he's not gonna have a serious challenge from a democrat which is important for him. bob has work to do, especially with crime. he's going to face interesting challenges for come november including district attorney in sacramento. he is appearing today. he's with newsom talking about a package of bills and funding and crackdown on crime. local governments do that. he has the tougher road but they've both done a good job putting their names out there. >> we saw them come hard on this. that's police reform and oversight. he released data around gun violence. he's annoced investigations of police departments including the late help. that's an area where there is slight change of policy. talking about crime going into the new year. let's talk about fraud. >>>

>> thank you, senator padilla, it is good to see you. the long-term consequences start with the erosion of trust and doubt and deception around our democratic institutions. the reality, if our voters do not trust or believe the results of our elections, our democracy in -- is unhealthy. struggling to succeed. the reality is, that has implications for the security of those who work in elections. as implications for america on the national stage, and the health of our abuse -- ability to work with and support emerging democracies across the world. it impacts us specifically -- cynically in all -- civically. we have seen that around covid and the covid vaccine, as our information ecosystem continues to suffer. >> as we recall experiencing. madam chair, i would like cap jade to finish my next question, the former secretary of state in me shining through. a professional postelection audit, based on proven standards and methodologies are an important tool for ensuring the accuracy and integrity of election results, while building voter confide

next up, senator padilla. >> thank you madam chair. as most of you know, colleagues, i served as california's chief elections officer for six years. in that time i recall proudly working with so many local election administrators up and down the state of california, as well as with my colleagues from states around the country. and with the shared objective of making sure election officials were safe and secure and as successful as possible. in california i believe we had succeeded in that goal and that's in no small part due to the hard work dedication and absolute professionalism of our local elections workers as well. these dedicated americans are indispensable to the strength of our democracy. and it's because of that experience, and it's been so deeply troubling for hearing story after story of election workers who now fear simply going to work. they are afraid that they are nonpartisan work to help americans exercise their right to vote and that their votes be fairly counted will make them the subject of threats or worse. election

senator alex padilla, newly appointed senator from the state of california, knew about the problem and refused to address it when he was secretary of state in california during the last election cycle. republicans care about election integrity because our constitutional republic means nothing if our citizens don't have faith in our elections. when everyday americans hear more and more reports of individuals on active voter rolls who have moved to another state, died, or non-citizens, it frustrates them because it calls into question whether their valid vote actually counts. one eligible person, one whole non-diluted vote. it's so frustrating because the fix is so simple, but democrats refuse time and time again to address this problem. it's common sense and has been federal law for decades that only eligible americans should be on our voter rolls. republicans want every eligible voter who wants to vote to exercise that right. democrats dilute your vote, but republicans restore it. i'm here today to talk about protecting our democracy, and i think the only way to do that is to make sure

padilla: thank you, mr. president.dge koh's record, skill, intellect and respect for the rule of law, her confirmation is a big step in helping us achieve that goal. i urge my colleagues to join me in voting to confirm her to the ninth circuit. thank you, mr. president. i yield the floor. the presiding officer: under the previous order, the senate will resume consideration of the koh nomination, which the clerk will report. the clerk: nomination, the judiciary. lucy koh of california to be united states circuit judge for the ninth circuit. the presiding officer: the question occurs on the nomination. is there a sufficient second? there appears to be. the clerk will call the roll. vote: vote: the presiding officer: the yeas are 50. the nays are 45. the nomination is confirmed. under the previous order, the motion to reconsider is considered made and laid upon the table and the president will be immediately notified of the senate's action. a senator: mr. president? ever. the presiding officer: the senator from rhode isla

of the public lands and we need better parking lots and new points of entry and i'm with senator padilla that would help present a program that would help provide resources to the state and local governments to invest in new parks and green space toss expand that access. one out of three americans, that includes 28 million kids don't have access within a half mile to a green space and, you know, if they're denied that opportunity of getting, you know, different type of renewable energy, the energy that people bring back when they've been out exercising or recreaing in a green space. one of the things, i'll start with mr. french and mr. lambrick and mr. chappell. how do we see access, and do you think it's appropriate that we begin pre-vyinged resources and let the federal government and the public lands movement provide more access to urban areas. >> and thank you, senator for the question, and so there's two things i'd say. one is, you know, our mission is actually much wider than just the management of our national forest and grass lands. so through our state and our private programs w

vote act, so many people working on this from senator schumer to tim kaine, to senator warnock and padillaof instagram over the impact on young users and the devastating impact on young girls. now you're introducing legislation to require social media companies to publicly release internal data and to cooperate with independent researchers looking into their app's impact on the republican. senator rob portman cosponsored the bill. do you have the votes to pass it? >> i think we do. there's a bipartisan movement to take this on. the interests of parents right now and social media platforms are diametrically opposed. parents want their kids doing homework, if they're going to look at tv or any content, they want them protected from bad stuff. that's not happening right now. and what we've seen with the platforms and this is what we asked the ceo of instagram is that they're putting more money into wooing teens to keep them on the site because it's a feeder group that gets addicted to their product. they see more ads and can sell more advertising. it's obvious and this includes facebo faceboo

senator manchin as a former secretary of state and several other senator, including warren atkin padilla 8,000 threats on members of congress since january 6 with local election officials leaving their positions because of threats against them, with over 400 bills as you have so well discussed on your show, over 400 bills that have been introduced to stop the freedom to vote. that's what the stakes are incredibly high. we can't wait. let me make clear. beth those senators support the bill. so the issue is the senate rules. what we are arguing with them about is this isn't about chaining the filibuster. it's actually about as senator byrd himself in the old days said, the rules should meet the circumstances of our time. the circumstances of our time right now is an assault on our democracy. byrd himself changed the rules several times. as you saw last week, joy, the rules were changed for the debt ceiling. the rules have been changed 160 carve-outs to the filibuster, and we are simply making the case to get this done and to allow the senate to debate the bill. i would disagree on the fact

so this will be helpful to have him here as well as senator king and senator padilla and senator capita. mr. bolton has served in the capitol police office of the inspector general 15 years. he was pointed at inspector general in january 2019. early in his career he served as special agent in charge of the treasury department's office of investigation for four years. he also served for 21 years with the u.s. secret service. mr. bolton holds a degree in criminal justice from the university of maryland. i will now swear in our witness. mr. bolton will you please stand, raise your right hand. do you swear the testimony you will give before the committee will be the truth the whole truth and nothing but the truth so help you god? thank you. we are now recognized for your testimony. >> good morning madam chair globe, ranking member blunt and distinguished members of the committee. thank you for this opportunity to appear before you. i'd like to extend my appreciation to the committee for holding this hearing and the important work that this committee continues to do to make the capitol compl

controller's report saying we're in the black, and then, the joint report by senator feinstein and padilla released yesterday after a federal judge restored california's access to federal transit grants, as much as $12 billion in much needed funding for california's transit agencies could have been left on the table without today's ruling. now, what's with san francisco? why don't you apply for some of this money and get -- get to projects and sustain good paying jobs instead of seeing all this fluff that was just presented to us in the form of a sales tax? and i agree, i'm not going to pay for vote for this because it's not going to take care of the problems that really confront muni. thank you. >> thank you. next speaker, please. >> operator: you have two questions remaining. >> next speaker. >> good afternoon. edward mason. in this project, we talk about expansion of the transit system. my opinion is the transportation sustainability fee is inadequate to fund the required transportation expansion need. so growth is not funding growth. the other issue is street trees. we never have a dis
