i suspect this is good news for the pell grants. that is the program most visible and the in symbolic terms attracts to minorities and lower income hits. it also says that we are going to get serious about transparency and regulation of cost and out, in higher education, which is a very big deal. >> i am happy about the optimism i will bring it down. i am concerned there are some critical areas that will be left behind. in particular, housing. there is some good news that we do not talk a lot about when it comes to housing. that is that housing is really affordable right now for a lot of americans. that should create access for americans to housing. the fact is that we are seeing really low rates of entry into home ownership. i have seen studies that suggest to solo even relative to 10 years ago. i think one of the key issues there is lack of access to mortgage credit. i do not think anybody wants to go back to the go-go days of the credit boom. everybody understands there is too much lending them. i think there is lots of evidence

i hear from people that my kids cannot get a pell grant. a lot of families are filling in decaf in terms of loans. when the democrats were in -- a lot of families are filling in the gap in terms of loans. a lot of families are concerned about federal borrowing. they need to understand the cost differential. many don't. there are ways we can help families figure out how to afford college. the notion that colleges have to be more affordable is something that many of us are concerned about. we are working with many of our public universities. community colleges, commuter campuses are growing because it is cheaper. we see students taking five years and not four used to get through college because they are working part time. >> not getting through at all is part of the problem. >> colleges and universities are saying the success in admission is graduation. >> do you think hi educationese the same kind of accountability that we have -- do you think higher education meets the same kind of accountability? >> we do not pay for college. we pay for pu

reform pell pell grants and loan programs. that's a bipartisan thing. the second thing i would do is have students have more information. that's why i sponsored the right no know before you go act and this is how much you have to owe and if you want the philosophy major, that's fine. it doesn't paid, but you'll owe $150,000. >> we have not heard republicans talking about this, and republicans need to stop being the stupid party. in what sense? >> i don't know about that. i think the principles a tested and proven, and applying those to the 21st century. we applied them, but now we have to apply them to the # # -- 21st century. we bring that experience. i graduated college with 150,000 in student loans between, you know, law school and undergrad. no other way to pay for it. it was a combination of pell grants, stafford loans, and student loans which i paid off with the proceeds of my book, which is a perfect holiday gift available on amazon.com.

street i mentioned include six blocks of paving work and it includes construction of approximately 45 pell grants. epw is paving work will be coordinated with pedestrian enhancement at the intersection of 9th street and folsom. the enhancements includes the construction of pedestrian in the installations. the pedestrian improvement will be funded with prop b funds. construction of the over all project begin in june 2013 and is anticipated to be open for use by february of 2014. next is 28th avenue pavement. this includes ten blocks of paving work and construction of approximately 55 curb ramps. construction is scheduled to begin in april 2013 and anticipated to be open by december 2013. last project, this project will allow the sfmta to install pedestrian signal at ten locates around the city. in addition to the installation of new projects. i will be happy to take questions. >> just over all, if you can explain how the signals fits with the overall city strategy. >> good morning commissioners. you may recall couple months back we explained our strategy and our prioritization for all the p

safety net, right out from under them, $3 trillion from programs like food stamps, guts medicaid, pellt does not include any tax increases on the rich but exit polls show that americans favor raising attacks on incomes over $250,000. so, when you match whatever speech he makes tonight or whatever interview he did today, what he's proposing, it doesn't wash. >> absolutely. if you look at what ryan wants to do, it's absolutely wrong for the communities that most of us care about. wrong for seniors. it's going to be bad for people who are caught, you know, at the low end of the economic ladder. he's not proposing anything that will be helpful. here's where progressives have to be careful. paul ryan is the first dog into the tunnel. he is trying to find a way to talk about these issues that republicans are going to have to have a message on if they're going to be successful going forward. here's the thing f they continue to talk about this, if conservatives continue to go into minority communities, talk about poverty, sooner or later they're going to stumble up on something that people wil

in principle pell it's the right thing. now it will come back at some point, will the republicans hold the line on the principles that they ran on or do you expect that maybe many of them will cave? could me i think the american people would like principled leadership. does that exist? >> i think it does. the house acted. we acted on august is 11th and last week we rejected a proposal from our leadership that would have gone where the president wants to go and raise taxes on certain -- certain folks. but we have acted. the senate has not acted. they haven't acted for 1,337 days on a budget. they haven't acted on months on this issue. we knew the end of the year was coming. we knew taxes would go up if they did nothing and here we see harry reid demanding the house do something when he won't call the senate into action. they are working on the fiscal cliff bills. mr. reed, go to work. you have had years to lead this senate. go to work on that. >> i agree. and president obama -- >> and if we stick to our core presence pells.

right now what we have is student aid like pell aid like pell grants or the loan programs, they have credit institutions. they don't have credit courses. so that is a way towards conditional for your land grant university, nothing wrong with it. i went to a school that is about -- to be crushed by the sugar bowl. anyway, a few points of mitch mcconnell. but what about the folks that don't want to do that and can't do that? they want to take a course, online course fiscal year an online credit the school over you. we should credit courses so we're not discriminating against allowing people to us acquire skills in that setting. i think we have to reform our loan programs to reflect the 21st century students. the second thing i would do is make sure we have more information. that's what i spotted the right to know before you go act. before you take out his welcome students will be given information about just how long it'll take you graduate, this is how much you can expect to make if you graduate with this degree, and this is how much you will have to go in student loans. if you still

i hear sometimes over that, my kids couldn't get a pell grants.nk a lot of colleges have done an amazing job of trying to fill in the gap with loans. actually lower the cost of borrowing, pass legislation to make sure that all students are informed about federal borrowing because it's so much less expensive than private borrowing. so reducing the interest rates or you're paying much less to make sure to use all of that up before they go to private borrowing. interest in the difference, and many don't. you know, i think the notion, colleges have to be more affordable. i think many of us are concerned about, and we are working with our public universities. we see, community colleges really growing because it is cheaper. students taking five years, four years because they're working part-time. spent or not getting through at all is a big part of the problem. >> we have to put, push our colleges and universities to say success is graduation. >> i want to bring in the audience but you think higher education, accountability, revolution or attempted acco
