with that third priority, the third priority, a combat-ready force.rained and equipped to do the job. so that's the first thing we want to talk about today. because sometimes as we sit up here on the stage and you hear the deputy talk about all the things we have to have and you hear all the amazing capabilities we have to have, the real deterrent of our nation comes from a combat-ready force. it really comes from the 162,000 americans that serve under the umbrella of u.s. strategic command. 162,000 people that come to work every day, and every day that work, location, some places is under the sea, under the ground, operating in the air, operating in space. defending our nation, defending 300 million from the middle of alaska. soldiers, sailors, airmen, and marines that the do tdo the job. i want to tell you if you go out now and visit those places, you will find the greatest people in the world doing that job. and you'll find that morale is unbelievably high. unbelievably high. you'll find the best and brightest our nation has to offer and they still

it will be my priority.ow that the end of the term with the broken promise but at the beginning. >> we've been talking about the border sheriffs a little bit now. both vocalized concerns about the raw strike force. >> i was just in human county spending time with the sheriff, we had a month wonderful morning together. they found a tunnel that had been dug under the border where they were delivering drugs in the state of arizona. they expressed expatriation for partnership at the state level. i understand our border sheriffs are independent, elective leaders in our state. it's taken a while for everyone to accept what we are doing but we have, a state, a partnership. we'll have the worst like it has happened many other states. working with law enforcement to stop the drug cartel from and human trafficking. >> the sheriff has been critical because they are asking the state to cringe patrol the roads 247. that commitment that the governor to keep arizona safe. it was sheriff who mentioned a thousand different l

can facilitate a be my topnd that will priority. the general assembly must champion initiatives -- champion initiatives to ensure young people enjoy great opportunity in political classification to avoid abandoning them inexorably. peace and security are one of the cornerstones of the united nations. the most bitter conflict and disputes result in dialogue generosity and through mutual understanding. that includes when differences are -- of opinion on our religious or cultural. that gathered hereyou today have taken tremendous efforts toward understanding in -- and peace. in july, the prime minister of signed a ethiopia diplomatic relations and ties of transport, trade, and communication are being steadily reviewed. the declaration for the peace, prosperity, and reunification of the peninsula was adopted between the republic of korea and the democratic bolts republic of korea. those nations agreed to work together to put an end to decades of conflict. represents a historic milestone proceeding a new era of peace and the korean penin

and i hope this will be beyond a priority for you. this is a crisis. it's a crisis never won the first date. we're losing one person a day in name and it will take more of an amorphous whole of government and i've been to the command center in florida. it's going to take some delegated authority and a structure. you're a military man. you know that you need a chain of command and someone in charge. can you talk to me about working toward that end? >> senator, having someone in charge in being able to hold somebody accountability fundamental. i'm a product of the training in the nuclear navy and i know full well the need to be able to look round the table and point to somebody and hold them accountable and ultimately fire than if the decision, if there are not result. we have to look to where we can get results. i think we have to approach this problem site as if there is a scene out there and we should never feel comfortable we haven't found not, whether it's in information, intelligence, authority and then we have to take that from source -- >> i want

we have a different set of priority incident 11. priority since 911. also talking about the national defense strategy with a decline over that time. we are where we are not because of malice aforethought but we made some clear choices and accepted so we need to come to some understanding because of your off solving a problem but let's make sure we understand what that problem is. i think the real issue that this is first and foremost a readiness problem we are not ready to fight a conflict to unfold in a certain way. so i would ask myself if we said we are not ready to fight extending to the sea or the land would we know what to do? of course. take the word face out to put landor c and that is what we have to go do it is a joint were fighting problem that is important we think about it that way with that war fighting readiness problem not ten or 20 or 15 years from now. what do we need to be ready for conflict? first of all we need policy without war fighting effect. the second thing what i would call the combat and command seat they are tactics and pr

to be rooted in dialogue and understanding is a top priority. to ensure that young people enjoy great opportunities with political participation to violent extremism. but the most bitter conflict of the dialogue to reproach meant. and mutual understanding when the distances of opinion. over the last few months which should encourage fears to be held by us all. the prime minister of ethiopia holds peace and friendship to bring an end to decades of conflict. and with those diplomatic relations and which is instantly resumed. the reunification of the peninsula was adopted with the people's republic of korea and both nations agreed to work together to put an end of decades of for. this represents a historic moment through a new era of peace with denuclearization. and many conflicts still lack a peaceful solution. your excellency, the challenge is taken by the chancellor of the united nations. climate change, add disappearance of biodiversity, human traffickin trafficking, environmental pollution, migrants and refugees. terrorism and ethnic conflict

it will be a top priority and is a top priority for southern command. the same pathways that are bringing in heroin, cocaine and other opioids can bring in terrorists and we have to get after those networks and the sources of drugs, interdict the drugs and work together as a whole government interagency to find better ways and identify seams and gaps in the assets and authorities where we can stop the supply. >> admiral, one of the things that we're degree is that fentanyl is responsible for a huge portion because it's ten times more powerful than heroin, cheap, synthetic, what's happening it's coming from china, they're sending basically the components to your command and to mexico where it's being put together and then being shipped up to my state and to other states. do you have any specific plans in regards to this fentanyl distribution system that we're seeing? because what's happening is, one time with that, and people are killed. just one time. and so we've seen in some cases the overall amount of drugs out there coming down a little bit, but the

for those that bring the drugs in with the combat and commander so it is about priority it is a top priority to work with the interagency and most of the drugs come through the central american region and if confirmed i will be unabashed for what resources i think i need. look to where i can approve. >> and to come forward with additional resources. with those two commanders. >> and to follow up on another statement talk about the challenge from russia in latin america. in the dedicated spanish language arts and that we need to improve our efforts in the region with the advance policy question can you be more specific to address this information campaign? >> this is just answering our partners needs. and then in terms to secure and be part of the equation. a lot of this is the intelligence effort the downrange partners illuminate the concern and where we can we bring that out into the open to tell the truth. just this morning i was looking online with an interview that would be traveling to anyone. >> an important area to prioritize. but general abrams before he referenced the questioning th

i have three priorities.hey've been the same since i took command and they will be the same when i leave command. priority number one, above all else we will provide our nation strategic - -. if deterrence fails, we will provide a decisive response, decisive in every way that word can be defined. and priority number three, we will deal with the combat ready force. that's who we are. they're the missions we do it with that you see on the screen. the motto on the bottom that we brought back from chief tj care command. we see that to remind our adversaries, if you don't want to use, we can go a different direction. with that third priority, a combat ready force. trainedand equipped to the do t job so that the person we want to talk about that. sometimes we talk about everything we have to have and the amazing capabilities we have to have. the real deterrent of our nation comes from combat ready force. it comes from the hundred 62,000 americans that serve under the umbrella of u.s. strategic command. 162,000 peop

it will be my priority.t's what teachers are all asking for so they don't have to work two or three jobs. theywhat parents want so no longer have overcrowded classrooms. ans what we need from economic development standpoint so we can invest in human capital in arizona. this is particularly important in tucson. it should continue to be a strong economic driver. you investor resources back into education. keep developing that workforce. >> i don't know if david is intentionally deceiving the viewers are not what he is saying about our economy is patently untrue. we have updated factcheck garcia.com so people can get the real facts about that. our general fund does have a surplus because our economy is booming. there are better paychecks for our citizens. i want to see those dollars going into the classroom, rewarding our teachers, providing public safety, addressing child safety. we also have needs like transportation in our state. we will make responsible decisions across the board. >> this next question from

it will be my priority. because it is what our word border county sheriffs are asking the state to accomplish. and as governor, it will be my priority. not at the end of a term with a broken promise but in the beginning. >> time for follow up yes, from joe ferguson of the "arizona daily star," you each have 45 seconds for a response. >> we've been talking about the border sheriffs a little bit. the sheriffs of yuma and santa cruz counties vocalized concerns about the role of the strike force. is the strike force a way of saying the feds and county can't do it and the state needs to step in to help? county, weas in yuma had a wonderful morning together as we went to a place where the border strike force had found a tunnel that had been dug underneath the border where they were delivering drugs into the state of arizona. sheriff wilmott expressed appreciation for the partnership he has at the state level. i understand our border sheriffs are independently elected leaders inside our state. it's taken a little w

there are other priorities for them, but if we can make it work that their priorities can be met at the same time as their health care, then i think we can make a change. >> thank you. >> thank you. commissioner sanchez? >> yeah. i would just like to -- of all the commissioners that have spoken, i would just like to say this was really an exceptional update. a number of these agencies and prams -- programs, it was very neat to see how it was charted over the years. in the mission district, it's always been on the radar, but sometimes it's been under funded. it's a fact that some of our key institutions of the mission have hung in there, and i really think it speaks again to the department's outreach, inclusion, to provide these unique services for our young population. as an example, many years ago, the border area health education centers, which funded programs here all the way down to the border, funded the urban area and helped the mission neighborhood health center to begin to look at some of these issues then. some of key people were from the school of pharmacy at ucsf and then did

it will only get worse until we make it a priority. and then right behind that, and definitely not not important, the shipyard issue. i've been working on that for over 8 years. and i'm tired of going down to public comment every year and having supervisors say, we care about you. thank you for the item you've done. and next item, approval to move ahead for development at the shipyard. we can no longer accept that. it's a priority. so we know we are being hoodwinked and we can't accept that anymore. thank you. [applause] >> okay. this is going way too smoothly. these folks have done their home work and answered really well. i want to thank them for coming prepared. [applause] second questions, it's in the bucket of, how will you get it done? lets start in the middle with mr. kelly and go to your left. let's make sure you can turn and pat your head and all that stuff. how do you plan to address developers and neighborhood blight? >> first of all, let's talk about what blight is. i have a campaign office on 99 avenue, vacant for two year

there are other priorities for them, but if we can make it work that their priorities can be met at the same time as their health care, then i think we can make a change. >> thank you. >> thank you. commissioner sanchez? >> yeah. i would just like to -- of all the commissioners that have spoken, i would just like to say this was really an exceptional update. a number of these agencies and prams -- programs, it was very neat to see how it was charted over the years. in the mission district, it's always been on the radar, but sometimes it's been under funded. it's a fact that some of our key institutions of the mission have hung in there, and i really think it speaks again to the department's outreach, inclusiono

it will be my priority. ok, you each have 45 seconds for a response. >> there are vocal as concerns about the role of the strikeforce. where theikeforce state -- were the county cannot do what it wants and the state needs to help. gov. ducey: i just had a wonderful morning with sheriff or not. there was an area drug under the border where they were delivering drugs. he expressed appreciation for the partnership at the state level and i understand our border sheriffs are independently elected leaders in our state. it has taken a while for everyone to understand what we are doing. we have a state that is safer now, and we do not have these turf wars. we have our troopers working with our border sheriffs, working with law enforcement, to stop the cartels and human trafficking. the sheriffs are asking to patrol the highways 24/7. that is the commitment the governor is failing. there is 1000 different law enforcement officials working and the border accounts for 30 or 40 people who come every once in a while. we

our priority maintains the safety of the people and i responders. the coast guard continues to work in concert with fema, the engineers and other state, local and private sector partners responding to the storm. we have over 7500 men and women involved and ready to send and more. our mission now is search-and-rescue. we a 43 aircraft in elizabeth city and savannah, georgia. today we were we -- rescued five people. -- enable a government response. now that the wind has east, we are conducting overflight to conduct damage assessments. we according with epa, local and state stakeholders to look for and respond to any oil or chemical spills. the ports of virginia has reopened with restrictions. the ports of wilmington, morehead city, and georgetown south carolina remain closed. a team of goes guard, army and other personnel in conjunction with partners are assessing the damage and beginning repairs in order to open the ports when it is safe to do so. our priorities are reopening the river, support -- and the north carolina ferry system. like to remind p

none was made a priority by the people in power to set priorities. the authors of this bill defend their $1.3 trillion compromise. and of course this being washington, i know, as is always the case, that in this case it could have always been worse. but, mr. president, before this bill passes with an overwhelming bipartisan supermajority as its base of support, despite being mostly unread by supporters, someone ought to speak up for the americans that this legislation conspicuously leaves behind. the best measure of any government or any policy or proposal can be measured according to its impact on the least among us. too often today washington acts as though the least among us refers to our most vulnerable incumbents rather than to our most vulnerable constituents. this $1.3 trillion spending bill exemplifies that very confusion and fails that very test. under this bill, neither the unborn nor taxpayers are any more protected from the abortion industry than they were under president obama and a unified democratic congress. i understand that fighting

that was a decision about priority and it was also an assessment of risk. not because we are of malice of forethought not because of neglect, but because we made some clear choices. we accepted some risk. the second major point i would make is that we need to come to some understanding about what is the problem we are trying to solve. we are off solving a problem. the you understand what problem is. a lot of panels have looked at what is wrong with space. foremost a warnd fighting readiness program. we are not ready to fight a conflict that unfolds in a certain way against a near here kind of competitor. that is a readiness issue. myself, if we said we are not ready to fight a conflict that begins or extends to the air or the sea or the land, would we know what to do? the answer is of course we would. take the word space out of the title and put the word air or land or sea in their and that is we have to go do. this is a joint war fighting problem and an organized train and equipment program that supports joint forces. that is important that we think about

their priority. in the reconstruction of. love syria i would be given to our friends that stupid by us in our war on terror as for the countries that offer the only conditional assistance their money or. continue to support terrorism of the we are neither invited nor welcome to help in the first case of. madame president as we move ahead on counterterrorism. reconstruction and the return of refugees. we remain committed to the political process. without compromising on our national. will these include your primarily reserving the sovereignty independence and territorial unity of the syrian arab republic of protecting the exclusive rights of syrians to determine the future of their country without any external interference . eradicating terrorism from our country. based on the above we expressed time and again our readiness to respond to any initiative that would help of syrians and the crisis of the year of the group that we have engaged positively and openly in the geneva two talks will be asked on a process and the syrian n

and they are protecting the election discourse and election results, those are real priorities. tim, question or comment here. >> i appreciate accepting my call. with the paper bam on thes that are accumulated and processed in sobsly some type of computer system, did they go do a double charge. to make sure the numbers are coming in appropriately. you know what i am saying? x think i do. that is how close the elections are. it is it familiar. and that is with states going back and when a certain majorin seems to be the difference. that depends on the circumstances. the paper ballots are there to be rechecked and why they seem less vulnerable right now than the electronic voting system. good morning, you are on the air. that is the strongest possible one. >> whatever those measures are. >> and for identification. >> and i'm currently in connecticut and living in new haven. and i wasably to vote. i found it shocking. and they raised my hand. and that is submitting a ballot. the guest speaks of the strongest possible measures. that is that kind much security. >> and generally you w

if priorities are set by congress and scientists follow the priorities, that's a different matter because the research is still being conducted independent of political influence but following, artificial intelligence is a priority, therefore congress says there is money for artificial intelligence. should be freeit from political inputs. that is nonnegotiable to me here in conducted with integrity. sen. cruz: should questions of policy concerning science be dictated by actual data and evidence rather than political agendas of members of congress who want to expand government control over the economy? dr. droegemeier: certainly my role, if i am confirmed is to bring unbiased science to the executive branch, to all parties and make sure that information is at the table and available for policymaking. sen. cruz: do you believe there is only one acceptable impermissible view when it comes to issues of climate? i know thatier: there are multiple views. to me, i welcome all points of scientist, i get concerned and i have written articles -- i've read articles where they say this particular vie

we still anticipate an area of top priority to be the river basin. add river basin is by far one of the areas where now they are receiving water not only from south carolina rainfall also north carolina rainfall. all in that one river basin. we will monitor the river basins, we have some good ideas that we need to be paying attention to and once it starts to rain, it will have real-time monitoring. we will begin to be ahead of the floodwaters and anticipate having all our resources in place. so once again, besafe , be careful if you're on the water. waterways can be hazardous just like our roadways . >>. [inaudible] good afternoon. anytime you have a state of emergency in south carolina like we havetoday , i want you to know all the state law enforcement agencies, department of public safety as well as public and private services, we work as one. you heard that the reversal completed today by the dps, we work with them on that. we will now transition to our post dorm role and that means we will work as one to provide, our mission is the same and that

that was a decision about priorities and it was also an assessment of risk. so, we are where we are. not because of malice aforethought, not because of neglect, but because we accepted clear choices. we accepted some risk. the second point i would like, i think we need to come to some understanding what's the problem we're trying to solve. because we're off solving a problem here. let's make sure we understand what that problem is. a lot of panels have looked at what's wrong with space. i think the real issue, in my way of thinking is that this is first and foremost a war-fighting readiness problem. we are not ready to fight a conflict that unfolds in a certain way against the near peer kind of a competitor. that's the indication. and so, i would ask myself, if we said we are not ready to fight a conflict that begins or extends to the air or the sea or the land, would we know what to do? and the answer is, of course we do. and so take the word space out of the title. put the word air or land or sea in there, and that's what we have to go do. this is a joint w

so these are our 2018-2019 priorities. these are the same priorities we presented back in june and we provided you all with copies of our june handouts, so you can see it for your reference. what we'd like to call out actually is a quote that we feel kind of mirrors where we're at and that is, "every system is perfectly designed to get the results it gets. in order to change the results as san francisco unified schools substantive changes have to be made. the past friday the u.s. department of education office of special education rehabilitation services sent out a blog titled "rethinking special education." it challenges federal, state and local districts that remove barriers standing in the way of improving outcomes for each child. we've included copies of this article, because the c.a.c. wholeheartedly supports these challenges as they align with our priorities for the 2018-2019 school year, which are to increase reading intervention, provide comprehensive social-emotional support and ensure that san francisco unified t

if priorities are set, for example, by congress and then scientists follow the priorities, then, youknow, that's a different matter, because the research is still being conducted independent of political influence, but it's following, okay, this -- artificial intelligence is a priority, so therefore congress has said, okay, there's money for artificial intelligence and it should be conducted and so on and so forth. that kind of thing. but i think fundamentally, it should be free from political influence. that's absolutely, to me, nonnegotiable and completely conducted with integrity. >> should questions of policy concerning science be dictated by actual data and evidence rather than political agendas of members of congress who want to expand government control over the economy? >> well, certainly, my role, if i'm confirmed as direct of osdp is to bring unbiased science t best science available to the executive branch to, all parties and make sure that information is at the table and available for policymaking. >> do you believe there is only one acceptable or permissible view when it

i imagine health care will be a top priority. infrastructure is an issue that resonates in every district in this country, whether it is rural, urban or suburban. we need a robust infrastructure so we can move goods and people efficiently. also has as jobs and multiplier effect for the economy. i think that infrastructure will be a top priority. another priority we have discussed on the committee is pension security and retirement security. whether that is shoring up social security and increasing the life of the trust fund, for helping get our hands around the very critical multi employer pension problem that is coming to a head. those will also be priorities for the committee. david: i noticed none of those priorities were investigating president trump or things in his administration or impeachment. if you were a member of leadership higher than you are now, would you be trying to discourage fellow democrats from spending time and effort on investigating the president? rep. sanchez: i think there has to be oversight. we have se

getting people to exercise their constitutional right to vote is a critical priority. there is work to be done in ensuring there are enough machines, working machines, another people to fix the machines when they do break. the cyber piece is somewhat ameliorated if there is not that internet connection. in newport, republican. caller: hello. i just want to see if you can respond to a statement or clarify something. bill nelson in the state of florida came out and said there was a situation where the russians were going to be hacking machines and that was dispelled because the democratic party or whoever did not verify that actually happened or is going to happen. -- just came out with an article in the paper regarding something that was disseminated from washington dc that looked like a paper ballot early voting system. it was put out by an activist group there and it looked absolutely real. saying -- theyt are very nervous at these election offices in florida about not only electronic things but these other means of people trying to persuade in our own country will ne

see their priorities reflected like the riders are in the house bill. unless this is done, many of their members will find it difficult to support this finding. are you concerned about getting conservative riders in these bills, especially the one that -- speaker ryan: i think we have a great amount of victories for our members. first of all, we're funding the v.a. mission act is a perfect example. done the way the house wanted to get it done. so we -- when you're negotiating with two parties in four corners, you're not going to get everything you want. that is how negotiations and compromise and legislation works. having said that, this passed 94-5? is that -- so i think the senate vote sort of speaks for itself. >> last question. speaker ryan: chad. reporter: thank you, mr. speaker. we talked about the storm here. i know last year, you guys moved supplemental bills for irma and harvey. it went better than hurricane sandy before. based on lindsey's questions, concerns raised by conservatives and deficit and spending, as they assess the needs after the

legislation was not one of those that was the top priority. so i would ask that we put on the october agenda that subject matter of possible legislation relating to independent expenditure committees and limitations on them. i told pat that i have six more months on this committee -- on this commission, before my term runs out. one of my goals is that we act on the draft legislation that has been presented to the staff. we move it as a priority item at the october meeting. >> so this was the -- to put it on the agenda, would that reason you'd like to revisit the policy prioritization discussion we had? >> my understanding is october is when we do a reanalysis of the profile -- of the priority. clearly, i would ask that it be placed as a priority item for action by the commission within the next six months. >> we have october is the right quarterly period where we said we would bring back the prioritization plan for a check-in and what we can do is attach -- make sure that material information about that legislation is attached to that so it ca

priority number seven shelby decent security and -- shall be peace and security. this organization must become a chief peacemaking body in the world, following a preemptive approach. sustained these must be rooted in dialogue and understanding. facilitating this download will be my top harding. budget assembly will champion initiatives to mature yuppie all enjoy greater opportunities and a greater role in political participation, to avoid abandoning them to a past that leads inexorably to violence and extremism. your excellency's come up use and security are one of the cornerstones of the united nations. ies, peaceexcellency and security are one of the cornerstones of the united nations. that includes when differences of opinion are religious or cultural. over the last few months, some of you gathered here today have taken significant steps towards understanding peace, which should encourage your peers and hailed by all. in july, the president of every trip and the prime minister of if you'll be at signed a declaration of peace and friendship to put an end to deca

if priorities are set, for example, by congress, and then scientists follow the priorities, that's a different matter because the research is still being conducted independent of political influence, but it's following artificial intelligence is a priority, so therefore congress has said there is money for artificial intelligence and it should be conducted, so on and so forth. but i think it should not be influenced by political interference and should be followed with integrity. >> should questions concerning science be dictated by actual data and evidence rather than political agendas by members of congress who want to expand government control of the economy? >> certainly my role, if i'm confirmed as director, is to find the best science available to all parties and make sure that information is at the table and available for policymaking. >> do you believe there is only one acceptable or permissible view when it comes to issues of climate? >> i know that there are multiple views to me. senator, i welcome all points of view. as a scientist i get very concerned. i've written articl

we'd like to make sure they reflect your priorities and your district's priorities, and also what funding is available currently. we need to update this now because we are in year five of the 2014 5-y.p.p.s. so the process of updating this is, you know, i do this circle thing because i see the circle on step two. we are sort of nearing the end of step two and easing into step three. the agencies are going to be telling us how much they are going to be requesting in prop k funds, and we run the models four our strategic plan to see what we can fit within the program and then eventually present to you for adoption the strategic plan, concurrent with the last of the 5ypps, which we expect to bring to you over october and november . so november , we would ask for adoption of the strategic plan. as i mentioned, we already updated the baseline, and we already brought to you the funding plans for the major capital projects, and the paratransit. basically anything that does not require a 5ypp was presented to the board in the spring. and once the board adopted the baseline for the strategic plan,

the matter of priority as for us depends on the challenges around us and those determine the priority as a whole doing to them want to just because they don't want to face the realities on the facts right now then it's up to them and these reflect their policies regarding the us we have three shared the partnership between the state of qatar and the not the states we respect the partnership between the g.c.c. and then are the states of cutter doesn't ask for anything the have to stop their illegal procedures their type of time regarding the qatari people this is a top priority for us but what it comes to the crisis from a political viewpoint and we can say this can be sorted out through discussions between parts is here and a serious discussion which we did not to be stubborn we are countries we are not children question for images era have someone said before that there is one person who can sort out the problem who is the u.s. president that can sort this problem out through a phone call or something like that and regarding this coalition. do you think that there is a chance for thi

they are not its priority. politics is its priority. when sport comes up politics is its priority.ff second best. maybe the level of backlash will make the sports federation and the ioc sit up and take notice. this is a western approach and is not being replicated in other parts of the world. a bit like the fifa crisis. eventually there was progress with fifa, as the sponsors got involved. that is key. when the sponsors of the ioc get involved, maybe things will change. thank you. done, i appreciate it. the decision by wada two reinstate russia earlier today. danny cipriani wasn't picked for england's lastest training camp but he might still make the world cup next year. eddiejones says his decision to leave the gloucester player out of his plans was based on rugby and not the player's recent admission to common assault and resisting arrest, for which he was fined. danny cipriani is still the name and the face which sells rugby union. though he is doing exactly that on the front of the twickenham shop but he isn't in the squad at the moment, for playing reasons and not his behaviou

-- [indiscernible] >> would like to see their priorities reflected like the riders in the house bill. and unless this is done, many members will find it difficult to support it. are you concerned about getting conservative riders? the speaker: i think we have a great amount of victories for our members. we are funding the v.a. mission act is a perfect example. done the way the house wanted to get it done. so when you are negotiating with two parties in four corners, you are not going to get everything you want. that is how negotiation, compromise and legislation works. this passed 94-5. i think the senate vote speaks for itself. >> last question. >> you talked about the storm here. i know last year when you moved bills on harvey, it went better than what happened with hurricane sandy. and in this pending need after the hurricane here, do you think that -- [indiscernible] >> you will probably have to do a supplemental bill and moved past what kinds of bill the sandy bill a few years ago? the speaker: there were things in the sandy bill that members didn't think it deserved to be in a
