the way the progressive caucus of the progressive movement in this country cannot buy is telling the truth as with garcia just mentioned immigrants in this country not only contribute that much less likely to commit crime then somebody like me who is born here. to tell the truth these bills in fact do not protect victims of violence in fact they could lead to the deportation and punishment of victims of violence. i also recognize a state the progressive caucus recognize so many of our members right now are having to vote information environment flooded with lies. the progressive caucus is committed to doing the truth out there so all of our members can unite not just run her goals but start uniting around a strategy to push back against republican bills that really do not help and infect and hurt communities and americans want to protect. reporter: it would've been the 52nd anniversary of.

but if progress is occurring it's a progress that is contributing to the decline in numbers it must continueecause in the darkest of the days of the relationship between two countries this cannot be one that can slow down. because american lives depend on it. while we work on other aspects in relationship with china, it's going to be critical that we sustain this progress moving forward. because it is really important. we don't know if it is fentanyl today, what it will be tomorrow. we have drug traffickers and producers that are working hard over time to make sure they are carrying the most dangerous they can and the most addictive substances they can to make money, to make profits at the end. it's very important for global leaders to work in the interest of the world people. to stop these bad people from doing that. in china, we can work to make china a part of the solution through this crisis. or they can remain a part of the problem. >> president-elect trump has been very vocal recently. in tied continued progress on fentanyl to threat of tariffs and what he said about her future relatio

inspired by bevan, i call our new approach progressive realism.g the world as it is not as we would wish it to be, advancing progressive ends by other means through a storm of crises, we will be putting this into practice. in europe, progressive realism means working with our european neighbours rather than bickering and isolating ourselves from them. new defence and migration agreements with germany in our ambitious uk— france summit, a new era in relations with ireland, a new era in relations with ireland, a new foreign policy dialogue with the european union, the first steps towards a uk— eu security pact. with the usa, our closest ally, progressive realism means strengthening our friendship with both sides and join them to defend israel from iranian attacks, and together with australia further progressing the partnership and making a breakthrough for uk defence companies thanks to the changes. against russia, progressive realism means not allowing this mafia state to act with impunity and showing the world our resolve to stand by ukraine until

>> as we leave this event we continue live on capitol hill and take you to the progressive cosco's which is meeting today and we join those in progress. >> to attempt to invalidate our immigrant contributions and histories, but let me be clear. immigrants make american great and immigrants help keep america's economy moving. as progressives we are here to say that we will not let him take away those fundamental rights. and on his quest to invalidate immigrants and dehumanize us, trump has suspended refugee resettlement's, a program that existed since the 1980's offering a lifeline to refugees in the most dire conditions. and, as if it were not enough, trump wants to dismantle the right to seek asylum by reinstating the remain in mexico policy. this deterrent policy is inhumane and ineffective and places people in raise -- grave harm. under the guise of public safety he intends to stop cartels by categorizing them as terrorists. this vilification of immigrants and in particular mexicans will lead us down a dangerous path, one that creates more harm and jeopardizes national security by pre

some of us may or may not identify with the term progressive. i've heard some say that it reminds them of faux progressives whose actions are performative rather than transformative. i understand this, but it is in some ways the word that most broadly connects people who are holding this book in their hands hands to really boil down the values progressive americans hold. most dear. look no further than those quintessential american spaces. its front lawns, where there are neighborhoods with kids and progressive families who feel safe enough displaying it. the yard of the ages that proudly declares family values is peppered throughout nation. it reads. in this house, we black lives matter. women's rights are human rights. no human is a legal. science is real love is love and kindness is everything. three activists in my self-styled progressive hometown of madison created the sign in 2016, following trump's election with its iconic rainbow all caps sans serif font on a black background designed to pop during the snowy gray winters, they had no ide

we want to see further progress on inflation. remember, we're not-- you know, we're under 2%, but our goal is 2% and we need to get back to the 2%. >> in terms of the labor market, i mean, how-- you said a broad set of indicators show it's in a pretty solid place, was there broad agreement on that? there's been a few underlying indicators that are showing perhaps some weakness, a low hiring rate, you know, workers reporting that it's increasingly difficult to find a job. is that of concern to the committee? >> so, you're right. we look at of course, a very broad range and it starts with unemployment, yeah, with the unemployment rate, employment participation, wages, job quits, are people quitting, that kind of thing. the ratio of vacancies to unemployed. we look at all of those things and you put your finger on, it's a low hiring environment, if you have a job it's all good, but if you have to fine a job, finding rates and hiring rates have come down and those more typical of a-- let's say the unemployment, that the labor market

we want to see further progress on inflation. the story is there. we're just going to have to see the data. at the end of the day, it comes down to 12-month inflation, because that takes out the seasonality issues that may exist. we're just going to need to see that. we think that we see the pathway for that to happen. a key example is you now do see equivalent rent and housing services, the way it's calculated. you see that coming down pretty steadily now. that's the place where most of the remaining gap is, in addition a big part of the overrun, as you know, was from nonmarket services, which don't tend to send much signal. you can look through that and think, ok, we seem to be set up for further progress. but being set up for it is one thing. having it is another. we want to see further progress on inflation. remember, we're not -- we're under 2%, but our goal is 2%, and we do mean to get back to 2%. reporter: in terms of the labor market, is that broadly -- you said a broad set of indicators show that it's been pretty solid.

we seek progress while maintaining stability. to ensure that we will not go astray, just like when you drive a car. on the highway. you must first make sure that the brake is functional before stepping on the gas pedal. so striking the right balance between development and security is of utmost importance. and china is developing a.i. to promote the intelligent transformation of our economy. to deliver a better life for the 1.4 billion chinese people, to make them live a -- [indiscernible] -- life, this is our objective. so we will not blindly follow others' practices. we will not engage in excessive competition in this regard. so the chinese government is capable of ensuring the sound management of artificial intelligence because we have a very strong institutional system. and a monitoring system. and we have a very strong ethics committee. so with all this, we can manage and utilize artificial intelligence and other emerging technologies to the benefit of our people. on the global governance on a.i., this is a tough issue. if w

because of america's bold initiatives, 1972 will be long remembered as the year of the greatest progress since the end of world war two toward a lasting peace in the world. the peace we seek in the world is not the flimsy peace, which is merely an interlude between wars, but a peace which can endure for generations to come. it is important that we understand both the necessity and the limitations of america's role in maintaining that peace. unless we in america work to preserve the peace, there will be no peace. unless we in america work to preserve freedom. there will be no freedom. but let us clearly understand that no nature of america's role as a result of the new policies we have adopted over these past four years, we shall respect our treaty commitments. we shall support vigorously the principle that no country has the right to impose its will or rule on another by force. we shall continue in this era of negotiation, to work for the limitation of nuclear arms and to reduce the danger of confrontation between the great powers. we shall do our share in defending peace and freedom in

now, that's real progress, but for all the progress, i think we all know far more work remains to be done. nations with leading tech sectors must do more to uphold security standards and prevent ai from being abused. the international community needs to stand together against irresponsible misuses of ai systems. today, state and non-state actors are increasingly using these tools to influence historic public opinion and geopolitical narratives, to make offensive cyber operations more effective and this is only going to get worse as ai advances. the united states opposes the malicious use of any ai director and we condemn these practices. we must adhere to our shared norms and ai systems that are genuinely safe and secure. in the months and years ahead, this council will have an important responsibility. since its inception, this body has adapted to address the greatest threats to international peace and security. conflicts, terrorism and the spread of nuclear weapons. if the security council will continue upholding the responsibility and the united states believes that it must, it is
