for second term retention, it increases 10% to 13%. and it increases career retention about 5%. so, if you were to take a 10% decrease, which is not at all what we're talking about here, we're talking about lowering the trajectory of increases. smaller increases presumably you would have a commensurate effect. i think what we're hearing from our people, there might be some small impact on retention, but that based on the current economy and a number of other factors that we think we're going to be okay. we carefully considered that as we designed these proposals to not end up with a breakage in retention. right now the air force is reta retaining, and i would defer to the chief over there, but in 10 of 11 categories the air force is exceeding its goal in career retention they're at 96%, just as an example. >> thank you. thank you, once again, general amos. thank you. >> thank you, senator hagan. now, senator cain. >> thank you senator nelson and to members of the panel. thank you for your service and your testimony today. i just want to associate myself with the comments about s

it is good for retention and it is fair. i want to give them more and not less. tri-care, ised that correct western mark >> we have bought into it. >> more will buy into it and i think it is a good readiness and retention tool. we find that health care problems are the biggest impediments to getting people in order. having continuity of coverage makes sense. that is an example of expanding benefits. it comes to taking care of our troops, we are doing more on the sexual assault front. >> yes. >> i want to thank everybody for taking this issue seriously. providing a jagged for every victim. have ptsd and suicide prevention programs. it is money well spent. side you are increasing benefits based on reality of retention and problems with long-term service in a dangerous world. we are trying to create sustainable pay and benefits. that takes us from the marine corps point of view, what percent of your budget is personnel costs? it is 63%. >> navy? >> about a third. >> 48%. >> 48% with military and civilian together. >> we are looking at prospectively redesigning retir

i think it's a good retention and readiness tool. when we deploy from guard and reserve, we find health care is the biggest impediment getting people in order. if a member could sign their family up to tricare, it's an inducement to stay in. that's an example of expanding benefits. when it comes to taking care of our troops, we're doing more on the sex you'll abuse issues yes. >> i like the way you're headed. we're providing jags to every victim. i think what we're doing on the sexual assault fronts will pay dividends. we've got ptsd problems. we've got suicide prevention programs. all these programs cost money, is that right, general dempsey? >> they do, senator. and it's money well spent. >> a couldn't agree with you more. on one side you're increasing benefits based on reality of retention and problems associated with long-term service and a very dangerous world. on the other side we're trying to create sustainable pay and benefits. that takes us to the big -- from the marine corps point of view, what percentage of your budget, ge

by the late 1990s retention was on the ropes because years of budget cutbacks had depressed military pay to where there was a 13.5% pay gap. we cut rye tirmt value by 25% for post-1986 entrants. we had military families paying 18% to 20% out-of-pocket for housing costs, and we moved beneficiaries over 65 out of military health care facilities. this committee worked diligently, and i thank them for that over the next decade there was pay comparability, retirement cuts, zero out housing costs and restore promised health care coverage for older retirees. we thank you and all the members thank you. since 2010 congress has already implemented changes to slow the growth. in fact, the growth has slowed. these have included significant health care fee changes and stress reductions, pay raises that have either mirrored the private sector or in the case of this year have been capped below the private sector. the fact is that between 2000 and 2011 personnel and health care costs experience an average 7.8% rate of growth, but that cost was essential to keep the previous commitments and avoid ret

[laughter] that was not hard. have a lot of mortgages made in america before the results a thing as securitization. you have to people who are convinced that they had to do any risk retention, they won't get mortgages to those people. i don't believe that. i know it is uncomfortable now but i believe if we have a 5% risk retention there would be a demand for mortgages. there will be a supply of mortgage holders and you would get over it. now that i comment have changed jobs. a lot aboutked that transition. i left one group of bad actors.

but why does chp has a 98.5 percent retention rate? it is not because we just failed to evict. right? it is not because we just looked the other way, when around the behaviors because there are services and in our buildings, and that can, that can support the people, when they are, when they are experiencing things in their lives that would get them evicted from other housing providers, and it is a very, very important, as over the 23 years that i have been in the community and i have seen the people go from homelessness to many, many different housing providers and it is, and it is a very, very important that we, that the type of services are as robust and in whether they go to the master lease or whether they go to one of our buildings or whether they are the ecs and everybody deserves these type of resources that will help them move up the housing ladder. thank you. >> thanks very much, next speaker please? >> hi, i just want to mention just real quick that we all are actually i personally want to express my solidary with chp and we love you guys and support that he havinger

a packed from the clerk describing the impact to the changes due to expanding the retention fund for the documents perhaps you can sever that item i'd feel better about it. i also wanted to appreciate supervisor cowen's memoriam for john. it's a great loss for all of us who have worked with john in capacities. i also will mention personally to other losses the pass week len who was a business owner and a personal friend of the family len and i hope our scleshg feels better she had a bump on the head >> thank you. next speaker, please. >> god bless you supervisors and the city and county of san francisco. i'm conceive dennis i want to talk about the deinvesting of fillmore. the jazzy laundromat has been around for years people all over san francisco would come to the jazz laundromat they economy that was the chapter it laundromat in the san francisco. it closed down. the dollar store we don't think on going to get our household items, our bathroom items and that is closed down. and now we have a church that is the heart of the fillmore that's been there since i don't know when this is

i would certainly not recommended the retention of trees that is a treat to the property or people this happened to not support this view that the kits are the problem, in fact, both of the failures the arrest bureaus showed they're not from topping cuts you'll notice on the picture which is disappeared you'll notice on the picture one the failures is from this point here that's well below the heading cut which the way up here. neither of those breaks both of them from the side of scaffold lens it is true that the cuts are more weakly attached but the top can be reduced to grow over time to have a greater told them, in fact, it occurred along the ago and the sprout haas has been attaching to larger numbers of attachment so with the structural pruning can make the tree safer than that that is now although it's not a high-risk to people or property at this point and proper maintenance that's been denied to this tree in the past can make it a great contribution to the community. >> thank you. we'll hear rebuttal now. >> hi good afternoon, commissioners melinda i'm here on behalf of the pro

we had to weaken so much of the requirement for risk retention. we adopted a section that had superstate mortgages to adopt risk retention. the regulators at one point were proposing to have the exception eat up the rule. hat troubled me. if we could get some risk retention in there, think we could build systemic rotection. >> that is very much a live debate among the regulators. it is in the middle of a pending rulemaking with some on the other side expressing concern that that may impact credit availability. >> that is one of the things i want to talk about. transitions are hard. the transition from having hundreds of thousands of people aggravate you to private life is a good transition. that was not hard. [laughter] we used to have a lot of mortgages made in america before there was such a thing as securitization. you have people convinced that if they have to do risk retention they won't give mortgages to those people. i don't believe that. i know it is uncomfortable now but i believe if we have a 5% risk retention there would be a demand for

we adopted a section that had super-safe mortgages to be safe from risk retention. to my dismay the regulators at , one point were proposing to have the exception eat up the rule. only two classes of mortgages. mortgages too bad to be made, and warpage is that could then be made without risk retention. we wrote comments to object to that. that troubled me. if we could get some risk retention in there, think we could build systemic protection. >> that is very much a live debate among the regulators. it is in the middle of a pending rulemaking with some on the other side expressing concern that that may impact credit availability. >> that is one of the things i want to talk about. transitions are hard. i don't know about chris, because he took another real job, but the transition from having hundreds of thousands of people aggravate you to private life is a good transition. that is not hard.

record retention by the mutations companies does not necessarily assuage civil liberties and privacy concerns and could expose these records to data breaches by cyber hackers. , i cannothe reason support the amendment. however, there is nothing in current law or legislation that would prohibit any company from entering into such negotiation or the government from entering into such negotiations if they both found that mutually desirable to do so, the with respect to the gentleman, i respect his concern about the issue. it is a legitimate issue that has been carefully considered, what i come down on the opposite side about whether or not i can supported, and i must oppose it. >> mr. chairman. strike the requisite number of words. >> the gentleman is recognized for five minutes. >> thank you. committee, the problem the king amendment presents from my point of view is that at no point has this administration asked for a data retention mandate. the president has said explicitly that these records should remain at telephone companies for the length of time they currently do today. secondl

not necessarily the easiest place for business retention. to do business on our screen right here, detroit, boston, st. louis, raleigh, atlanta, dallas. what are they doing right? >> well, i think human capital's a big part of it, liz. when i talk to business owners, i used to be maryland's business secretary, now i talk to business owners across america, and when they either want a start-up or expanted, i have the same conversation with them. i need that skilled work force that will enable me to grow my business or start my business and sustain my business. and that's why what we do at the department of labor so important because we invest in human capital, making sure we have the skills to compete for today's and tomorrow's jobs. and that is why you look at states that have a good educational infrastructure, and i think that makes a huge difference. liz: i know michigan, of course, michigan state,man u, but detroit? so they're doing something right. it's not, certainly, tax incentives because the city went bankrupt and then had to get out

but we don't look like to be in the data retention business for any longer than needed. it isn't a space the industry wants to be casted. >> another important issue to ctia is wireless taxes. what are your views on the hill with respect to wireless taxes? >> guest: there are a multitude of projects going on we hope to get done and rather that is individual bills or one big bill. we want to see a permanent extension of the internet taxation. that prevents end user taxes on the internet but also discommerce as well. it needs to be extended. it has been in place since 1998. taxing the internet isn't going to help drive penetration or adoption. there is a wireless tax m moratorium and we think that is long overdue. the general sales tax rate is nationally about 7%. varies by state. but that is average. the average tax on a wireless bill is 17%. that makes no sense. information driven economy why we would tax a critical information input at twice the rate of other goods and services makes no sense other than we are lugging a taxing system around from the bell days. taxing the

and we maintain a 97 percent housing retention rate. while most of our housing work is with the single adults, we operate bacus where we provide housing for 47 formally homeless families and we will join with mersy housing in provide support services to an additional 50 currently homeless families 1184th street apartments since july and we would like to point out that ecs is an active participant in the proposal this year and we fully support the proposal that includes impact and in helping low income families maintain their housing and we would like to comment on the human service agency's current plan to reduce the funding for support services at some of our supportive sites in the city and including bacus and since opening hsa has opening the services and we currently have two case managers and in the youth services specialist, and serving our 47 families, and which include, 85 children and youth and as with some of our colleagues in the community, hsa plan would drasically effect our current staff and cutting the staff by over half,

one aspect of that narrative, which i strongly disagree with, is a sense that retention is an issue. in our survey, our data shows that veterans actually retain higher on the job than regular citizens. we are talking with peter gudmundsson about employment and returning veterans. if you are a veteran returning 202-585-3883.led michigan and new jersey have the highest unemployment rate among veterans, both over 10%. delaware iowa, north dakota, virginia, and vermont have the lowest unemployment rate among voters. can you tell us what is happening at the state level? you would have to look at those numbers and compare them to unemployment in general. if you look at the nationwide numbers, if something like this at labour statistics last month they said it was 5.6% for veterans, and 6.3% for veterans as a whole? veterans are actually more employed than citizens as a whole. that shocked people. a lot of people are so new to this whole narrative that veterans are unemployed in huge numbers that they are shocked to learn that veterans are actually more employed. it is actually different fo

record retention by the communications companies does not necessarily assuage civil privacy concerns and could expose these records to hackers.ches by cyber for these reasons i cannot support this amendment, although thatl again reiterate there is nothing in current law or in this legislation that privateohibit any company from entering into such negotiations or the government into suching negotiations if they both found do so.ally desirable to so with respect to the gentleman, i appreciate his concern about the issue, it's a legitimate issue that has been carefully considered, but i come down on the opposite side of not i could support his amendment. i must oppose it. >> mr. chairman. >> gentleman is recognized for five minutes. you.ank members of the committee, the problem that the king amendment presents from my point of view is that at no point has this administration asked for a data retention mandate. in fact, the president has said explicitly that these records should remain at telephone of times for the length they currently do today. secondly we design section 215 to cover b
