senator perdue. >> thank you i appreciate what you are doing. i think we are naive.we look at history and to come to that conclusion i have a couple questions related to some of the reports coming out. the iaea released their report this month that said iran lied about their pmd efforts. when the foreign minister of iran said, and i quote, iran never sought nuclear weapons nor will it in the future. that is in clear contradiction of the iaea report as i read it of their activity prior to 2003 into as late as 2009. my question is given the missile violations that have been asked about the day violating 1929 and resolution 2231 the question is about the 90-day certification the secretary of state has given congress. i am going to quote in here iran hasn't taken any action, including covert, that could significantly enhance their nuclear weapons program. if they are firing missiles in violation of the sanction, they are thumbing their nose at us. my concern is i am not clear how the secretary can make the certification that including covert activities that could signifi

perdue is one of the most effective members of not only this committee but the united states senate and deeply appreciate the comments. i want to put on record the negotiations took place including senator cain and menendez and corker and other members of the committee. it was always envisioned we would not have an x-men process for the consideration. interpreted in layman's language itlayman's language it was always anticipated that there would be a 60 vote threshold so that it had to be a bipartisan action considering that we have divided government between congress and the white house. that was always envisioned in the agreement. and i know there is a different interpretation among the democrats and republicans as to whether we had a vote on the substance are not. i understand, but the american people no 58 senators oppose the agreement and 42 supported. and it did not hit the 6060 vote threshold that was the ground rules on which the legislation was negotiated. that got the broad support, unanimous support of this committee. i just want to put that on the record because there was a

senator perdue: i appreciate you guys and when you are trying to do. you have a tough job. i think we are very naive and what we are trying to do, and i look at history. i am not trying to predict the future. i just look at history to come to that conclusion. i have a couple of questions related to solar reports. the iaea released a report that basically said iran has lied about their pnd efforts. when the foreign minister of republic, "the islamic of iran has never sought nuclear weapons nor will it seek them in the future." contradictionar of the iaea report, as i read it, of their activity prior to 2003 until 2009. given then is, missile violations that have already been asked about today, by 89 229 and resolution 2231, the resolution is about the 90 date certification that the secretary of state has given congress. i will quote in here, iran has not taken any action, including covert activities, that could significantly advance its nuclear weapons program." if they are firing missiles in violation of you and sanctions resolutions,tions they are thumbing their nose at us

senator perdue? >> thank you, chair. i appreciate you guys being here. look, i appreciate the fact that we're here on an information basis talking about antitrust and the consequences on not only consumers but also investors. without one, the other doesn't exist and also with your employees really fulfill the three stakeholders you as ceos have to deal with. i have a question for the two people who are going to make this deal happen, mr. brito and mr. hunter. i'd like both of you to respond. why is the 10% number, mr. brito, important to you? in other words, i know that number just doesn't come out of the air. when you look at going vertical, there's balance in your own business. when you look at the matrix you have to deal with going across products and across countries, talk to me just a little bit about how that calculation and why that's important. >> sure. thank you. thank you for the question. i mean, again, if you look at the last few years, senator, our volume done through our company of wholesalers has always been around 7% to 8%, so we set it a

. >> in terms of troop level, and senator perdue asked about specifically the troop level of the 9,800 troops currently until the enter of '16, the administration originally was only about 1,000 troops by the end of '16. given the current security violence, does the state department believe that the united states should go down to 5,500 troops after 2016 or 1,000, or what are your thoughts on the numbers? >> well, as the president has announced, we will have 9,800 troops through most of 2016, through the bulk of the fighting season. and we believe that the commitment of the 5,500 for the period beyond is important for the continued train and assist mission, the continuing ct mission in afghanistan. and i think it also sends an important regional signal, a signal that the united states remains engaged and committed in the region and i think it also sends an important signal to the taliban. which would be helpful as part of a reconciliation process. >> the final question, could you give me your assessment of the afghan national security forces? >> the afghan national security forces, the

senator perdue? >> thank you, mr. chairman. let me echo that too. i want to compliment the ranking member for continuing to bring this up. i want to talk about that in just a second. right now, we're spending about $2 billion just in the peacekeeping force in the united states. i think that's our contribution. because of the assessment, we're some $345 million in arrears in terms of what the u.n. says we owe them. i'd like to point out also, mr. chairman, it's not just the percentages here in relation to the size of the gdp. it's also, i think, should be taken into account the percentage of the gdps in this countries that spend on their own military. that also bears to the global security situation. i think given the situation we have in the united states 35 to 45% of what we've been spending is borrowed. i have two quick questions. first, i want to thank you for what you're doing. given your high school years in georgia, we claim you and we're proud of what you're doing. i want to talk about hezbollah and lebanon. some 12,000 troops are there of th

senator perdue was asking about the security violations.in october we referred the matter to the united nations and called on it to, quote, review this quickly and recommend appropriate action? on october 22nd, i believe you stated and i quote, the united states will continue to press the security council to respond effectively to any future violations of any u.n. security violations. all relevant measures is and will remain critical. so as of today, as the united nations security council sanctions and the answer is no? is that correct? >> beyond having security council discussions of the matter, there's been no follow-on action. discussions are a form of u.n. action. it's a little bit like a hearing, as a form of congressional action. so we've had multiple discussions. >> the tuesday meeting, could you describe the actions that will be taken to that tuesday meeting? >> we will hear back -- well, we will actually not probably yet hear back from the panel of experts but if we're in a position to confirm the recent launch, this is something t

perdue: mr. president? the presiding officer: the senator from georgia. mr. perdue: i rise today to speak about a massive expansion of government that is fundamentally flawed from the start: the affordable care act, better known as obamacare. we've all supermajorities. the first gave us the new deal. the second, the great society. ed third gave us obamacare and dodd-frank. in many ways these progressive, sweeping government spending programs have failed the very people they claim to champion: the working men and women of america. they come at a massive expense to the taxpayers and add to the nation's debt crisis. right now this law is saddling americans with more than $1.2 trillion of new taxes over the next ten years. in my state alone, obamacare is costing taxpayers over $2.7 billion. the senate's action this week will help reverse the harmful effects of obamacare and remove the law's burdensome taxes on american families. when i'm back home in georgia, one of the most frequent and sobering concerns i hear about is the insidious, negative impact of obamacar
