state. do the legislatures of the state typically control what is in the state constitution? >> they don't, and that's why die think it is important to figure out. think justice kennedy may have framed that question in a particular way. i don't want to go too far down the road of re-litigating the arizona independent redistricting case here but i do think there is a certainly respectable argument that state legislature means state legislature and not in the other parts of the state government and i think there -- it well could, justice ginsburg and at least four people that agreed with you on that proposition and i don't want to re-litigate that here because i don't the result in that case -- i think that case can be taken as a given -- you ick still say the claims here no justicable and be as response to justice kagan's question, there's not a constitutional problem when a moment state legislature makes expressive with respect to the redistricting their undertaking at that moment if they make explicit what was explicit after the record wafers built up in vander mere which is

that has happened in a lot of state. >> only with the approval of the legislature. to propose the amendment to get to the ballot that is ratified that is not an effective remedy in the states of which you have independent jurisdictions are which they were adopted by citizen initiatives in was out of opposition. >> what you do about that partisan identification is not the only basis that people vote you see it changes dramatically with a particular appeal with individual candidates the head of the ticket. how do you deal with those factors of electoral results based on identification quick. >> the social class and the experts concluded which designed this plan the redistricting expert to testify that based on social science and his 20 years of experience he could demonstrate how the voter tabulation districts pass elections democratic or republican how they would vote in future elections and all partisan gerrymandering in the modern era is based on the social science. >> it turns out that this applies to north carolina or not but it proves very often. but the argument

state constitution. you made a reference to the elections class. elections caused says that is to be prescribed by each legislatures of the state, the legislatures of the state typically control what is in the constitution? >> they don't. that's why i do think it's important to figure out. i think justice kennedy may have framed that question in a particular way. i don't want to go to far down the road if we are a litigating the arizona redistricting case here but i do think there's a respectable or commit that the legislature means state legislature and not the other parts of the state government. that's why i do think there are separate issues. >> you meet the people? >> it will good. there are at least four people to agree with you on that. i don't want to litigate that here. i don't think the result in that case, i think that case can be taken as a given so long as you can still say the claims here are not disposable and to his question, i don't think there's a constitutional problem when a state legislature makes its was itit respect to redistricting there undertaking at that moment. they make explicit what was ultimately exquisite after the r

-- of brea:ship at the state legislature -- by partisanship in the state legislature. how --s that been hard, difficult, easier than you thought? do you find that the state legislators are more able or willing to sort of come across those lines? >> with respect to our immigration task force, to me it has been relatively easy to bring republicans and democrats together to discuss immigration. and i will just add one other thing. in terms of our organizations, ncsl and nako represent two of the seven state and local government organizations that represent elected officials. and on immigration in particular, i have seen over the years we have all come together, all seven of us, to discuss immigration issues in the same room. we have a developed set of principles that are common throughout all seven of our organizations and we have used that in our lobbying efforts. but getting back to the task force. i've found that it's a lot easier to come to consensus among my members than it has been -- even when my members go to the hill and speak to people of their own party, represe

i would like to thank the cohost, the bipartisan policy center and the conference of state legislatures, where been great partners to shed light on how federal immigration policies impact states and counties across the country. over the last year, the bipartisan policy center has worked with the immigration task force and played a key role in immigration work and helping membership find bipartisan consensus around this issue. we all know that and integration status for an individual, but states and counties across the country continue to be impacted by the nation's immigration system. rise over reform, counties are impacted directly by immigration, often serving as the health care providers of last resort for the uninsured and underinsured. counties provide health care 12 individuals regardless of immigration status. counties also provide for the public safety of our nation's residents and border counties in particular are involved in apprehension and detention of undocumented immigrants. fundes administer and federal, state, and local assistance and play a pivotal role with health and

federal governments, and other government entities, other officers do not -- cannot lobby the state legislature without coordinating with the mayor. for instance, the fire department might have a position on a pending state bill relating to fire safety. the fire commission and the fire chief should not be lobbying the state legislature unless they are coordinating with the mayor and the mayor gives the o care. >> how does that relate to department one? >> same is true for department number one. of course, individual supervisors in personal capacities may communicate with state or federal legislatures but should not be using city resources t to engage in that activity and including staff time. they should not speak on behalf of the city. only the mayor can speak on behalf of the city. >> the state legislation committee consists of who? >> there are representatives from the mayor, the board, the mayor's office chairs the committee. i believe the board has two appointments. the city attorney has a position and beyond that i am totally blank. >> treasure assess or and controller. who is the city at

states in the u.s. that determine whether or not you can vote at the presidential level and for the legislature at the national level more generally. so the state-level ratification, the state-level enfranchisement was full enfranchisement of women. you have full enfranchisement of women in illinois, michigan, new york after a long protracted battle. prior to the 19th amendment even getting on the the docket in the senate and the house at the national level. what we have to think about the west is not just this political culture but this period where the party allianceds aren't as solidified as they are in the east. the machine politics exist many in the cities but aren't necessarily entrenched as they are in the east. these are are places where politics are up for grabs in many ways. and so what i argue is that electoral competition, high levels of competition, leads to the entrepreneurial actives of courting new voters. in the western states, the politicians thought maybe this is a group i can court and that i can win because i don't have a necessarily solid ethnic voting base the way tammy hall did in new y

and back in 2006 i actually ran for the state legislature, and i won a seat in the maryland house of delegates and served there for four years. and after four years, i sought a seat -- ran for election for the state senate. i lost a very close election. so that's why i'm no longer in the legislature. since leaving the legislature, i found my voice as a palestinian solidarity activist. i found that there is a lot of -- not all, but there is a definite faction in the -- in my democratic party that was pushing anti palestinian measures. now, when i was in the state house, when i was a legislator, the conversation about palestine rarely came up. because we were a state legislature. we didn't deal with foreign policy mostly. now occasionally it does come up. but when i was there, it didn't come up. so it wasn't a big part of my activism. but what happened is, in 2014, the bds movement started gaining traction and followers and headlines. and this organization called the american studies association is a rather small organization of university professors studying native american history. th

as a former policymaker at the state level i encourage state legislatures to reflect the values of their constituents. you have some states -- kentucky just advanced, i believe, a bill.beat you have the five-month bill, based on pain, when a baby in the womb feels pain from that point forward, it is prohibited. from that case, maybe they look ofit from the standpoint reevaluating the timeframe. --ing it back to a heartbeat one it is detected, when do we declare someone dead -- when the heart stops. when do we declare them alive -- when the heartbeat begins. if they take up one of those cases, it is more likely that you go back to the fundamental issue of abortion which would be back to the states to decide. host: the washington post article was talking about what is next. guest: i do not know exactly what case will be next before the court. some have speculated. the court can do whatever they want. they can choose to take a case or refuse to take a case. there have been cases i thought they might take and did not take. it is anyone's guess. you think they would take that they did not --

because the constitution gives that power to the state legislatures. mr. speaker, as i was coming to washington again this week, i left my home early on tuesday morning, and went to the state capitol in georgia where i had the opportunity to address both the state house and the state legislature. which i served in both of those bodies. and it's mr. ayotte: -- and the amazing, as i talked about this bill, there was bipartisan opposition to this bill. why? because this bill strips away the authority of states to actually set their own laws regarding elections. now, some may think it's a good idea to centralize that power here in washington, d.c. but the problem is, the landscape of america is diverse. the geography of america is diverse. and the states are more well suited to actually meet the constituencies' needs of that state. now, some would say, well, the federal government's more powerful, we can actually enforce this across the board. well, the one-size-fits-all doesn't work. and besides, we don't do very much very efficiently. as i was looking at the

and for those of us in the room, i worked for the state legislature for 20 years in addition to doing this and some other roles, and we frequently come back two years later, just like california is doing now and other states are doing, saying, we need to perfect this. so your point is really well taken. >> and i had also the labs, i note jeff talked about sometimes the low-cost for many of them, labs are another area where this is an issue. it's not just specific types of physicians. >> i'm going to move on because their hands here, here and here and there. >> good morning. david, j.p. morgan. i think most everyone gets the issue. i don't know if you accept the term cross subsidization. but it seems like that the common term to reference disparity in payment rate. all of these solutions seem to have significant indications for physician compensation. is anyone done numbers on what that would mean, does it have any unintended adverse consequences? >> i'm not aware of any scoping it out to that extent. i am assuming some specialist societies have taken a look at that whether it's public

it doesn't appear as if the nixon people picked this up and in 1948 running for state legislature he delivered a speech saying he was in favor of segregation forever, to establish the idea of racial equality for african americans. if hainesworth is unacceptable, carlswell will be worth but nixon pushes senate republicans. he said they blocked up with hainesworth you have to stay with me on carlswell. it looks as if carlswell might make it through. but then a second problem emerges. the district court's opinions get appealed to the appellate court. for the most part the judges get it right. you don't see tons of decisions overturned by the appeals court. sometimes it might be 15 or 20%. carlswell had seen his opinions overturned at a higher ratio than any other district court judge in the country as of 1969 and a lot of these were not cases where let's say carlswell was making anticivil rights decisions and the court was saying you can't do that. these were technical decisions where carlswell seemed to not understand the basics of the law that quickly emerged as a consensus among both
