money that is collected at our ports, for our ports should go back to our ports. e ellen darcy told me if she had the appropriate funding which means we should take the trust fund off budget, all of our ports in this country could be dredged in five years. not only would this create jobs but prepare ports in this country for the larger ships coming through the expanded panama canal. . . however less than two months after that was passed, i was back here on the floor with my colleague, representative huizenga, fighting for the appropriation funding that matched what was set in our water bill, and we have had to keep fighting for that ever since. my colleagues -- the speaker pro tempore: the gentlelady -- mr. hastings: an additional minute. ms. hahn: my colleagues and i in the transportation committee, both democrats and republicans, decided to address this injustice in may when we passed a bipartisan bill that included the provision to finally take the harbor maintenance trust fund off budget. however much to my shock and dismay, this provision was stripped out aft

at port authority officials. police officers moved to the front of the room, got in between the protestors, and port authority officials on the other side, these workers, say they are mad at port authority officials for not raising their wages to a living wage. >> ho how much do you get. >> 10 .10. >> is that enough to live. >> no. >> governor cuomo signed a bill that raises minimum wage in new york to $15 an hour, but governor christie vetoed that bill, these workers feel if they are in new jersey they are out of luck. >> is it response, shame on you out of your hand. >> they are represented by a union, they should collectively be bargaining with their employer. >> the major multibillion dollar project, port authority is trying to undertake is the building of a new bus terminal, in manhattan. on tuesday, it was announced that new york and new jersey officials reached an agreement that new bus term nal would be on west side, and 5 designs would be unveiled thursday, and public could weigh in. but now we're back t

, cedar bayou and the biggest in texas, the port of houston. when america's astronauts looked at their window down in houston, it is hard for them to make their home away from home, but what they can't miss is the scale and strategic importance of the port of houston which is down the road from johnson space center. the greatest houston area is the chemical manufacturing capital of the world and the port's ability to ship those goods is responsible for billions of dollars in economic activity and hundreds of thousands of good-paying jobs in our state and across the country. but like the city of houston itself, not all of the port's important channels fall under the purview of the corps of engineers are within the footprint of what was originally authorized by congress. many of these channels have been assumed for maintenance by the corps of engineers over the years. each one has met the requirements of being acceptable and economically justified and constructed in accordance with federal permits and design standards. this is not a bad thing. in

ports, the almost totally export ports. there's nothing wrong with buying things from other people, mr. president, but it's actually economically a lot -- a lot dlshes a tremendous, positive -- there is a tremendous, positive advantage of selling thongs to people. and that's what the interior port system is all about. not only is it an export port system but it basically serves twice the land mass of a coastal port. if you're on the miss mission river, if a coastal port effectively serves 250 or 300 miles inland, a mississippi river port would serve that same amount in all directions. 300 miles each way. looking at those ports not for specifically the individual it unage that might go out of a -- tonnage that might go out of a port but how they fit into an individual system. they don't export 1 million torntion so we don't want to -- they don't export 1 million tons, so we don't want to dredge that port. it is only a 900 port. this bill creates the opportunity to do that. there is another measure that affectaffects very clo

facilities has the port of pittsburgh, one of the busiest inland port. it will provide enormous benefits to the region and make our entire region more competitive. the same can be said for authorizations for the port of charleston, the port of everglades which has been under review by for 18 years and finally being approved. and flooding around sacramento and more. it removes barriers for locals and nonfederal interests to invest in their infrastructure. factoring in the manager's amendment, worda will cover $9 billion to our ports, channels, locks, dams and other infrastructure. these investments are fully offset. i repeat. they're fully offset with the authorizations that the bill sunsets new authorizations to help prevent future project backlogs. wrrda has no earmarks and -- wrda has no earmarks and abides all the house rules. one section of the bill was reported by the committee was removed. now, i want to say i agree with my -- the ranking member, mr. defazio. the user fees paid into the harbor maintnant trust fund should be used to pay our infrastr

at our camera at new port richey. four inches of rain. impressive amounts as it trains across the area. that is where hermine is located as of 5:00. northeast coast for the holiday weekend there. the satellite shows how quick and fast and far it moved in a short amount of time since landfall at 1:30 a.m. near saint marx florida. now north of charleston spreading the rain and on shore flow north of the center of the storm in the coastal places of north carolina. there are the areas i'm talking about lining up offshore. mostly pasco drenched because they are in the unfortunate spot of the tail end of the storm dragging across the state and showers train over a certain area like a train track. as we saw training showers. those places are new port richey. pasco county. dade city, i-75 and land o' lakes. these areas see quite a bit of rain as a result of this storm. it is still going in some fashion. conditions are improving giving people a chance to dry out and certainly try to pick up after this storm. >> all right, thank you very much steve

new port richey, port richey, holiday, a batch of heavy rain that is moving through anclote now and that is going to come minutes or so, and i know -- i know the last thing you want is more rain. here is another shower too. right over the pinellas part of the gandy bridge and that is moving toward south tampa. so we may have started off quiet. got the sun up on a quiet note, but this is what we are going to have to deal with unfortunately. and i think the best rain chances will be -- let's say if you drew a line, i-4 north where the best rain chances are going to be throughout the day and just more scattered showers and storms at least by labor day. we will knock those rain chances down a little bit and back to 40%. >> jen: thanks, dave. >>> new this morning, pasco county officials are investigating a house fire in port richey. it broke out just before 4:00 on westport drive in port richey. one person was taken to the hospital with burns and we will bring you an update as soon as we get more informing. >>> and sarasota police are investigating a crash involving a drunk driver. th interse
