if convicted, sutton will face a minimum sentence of ten years.ut that's not the only serious crime he's accused of. less than a year earlier, a big time gun battle erupted on a boston bridge. he was arrested and charged with assault and intent to commit murder. he's pled not guilty. >> they say i was on a bridge. two people got shot. i'm allegedly one of the shute terse. >> one of the victims was report to be a member of a rival gang. >> allegedly what they're saying is i shot them both. >> why would you shoot your girlfriend? >> i don't know. >> you were carrying a gun? >> >>. i was not carrying no weapons whatsoever. >> so someone else was shooting? >> i guess so. it wasn't me. >> according to authorities, sutd ton was the only shooter on the bridge that night. they say he shot the gang member, then presumably by accident shot emily. >> they just say there's four videos showing a black male in a white t and black jeans and they see an arm and a whole bunch of shots. that's what they're saying. it's america. do you know how many black men in thi

sutton: mr. speaker, i rise today to offer this amendment in response to a concern that we have all heard and which was recently raised in a letter that i received from a constituent in cuyahoga falls, ohio. he wanted to though how congress can help with rising gas prices, prices that are forcing him to spend less on taking care of his family and causing uncertainty and uneasiness. it's with my constituent in mind that i offer this amendment today. mr. speaker, today we have an opportunity to join together to pass this amendment and to do something that my constituent and for the middle class families like his across this country that exist in each and every district. >> the house is not in order. the speaker pro tempore: the gentlelady will suspend. the house is not in order. members please take your conversations from the floor. the gentlelady will proceed. ms. sutton: thank you, mr. speaker. at the outset, i want to be clear. this amendment, this motion, it does not kill the underlying bill. s

sutton. ms. sutton. ms. sutton: thank you and thank you to my colleagues for being down here, fighting the fight our american people want us to fight. in my district, people's number one priority is putting people back to work. as representative perlmutter state sod eloquently, it is about empowering people. they don't want a lot from their government but they do want a government that will work with themened for them and enable to the extent possible play that role that will help grow our economy, invest in infrastur -- infrastructure that puts people back to work, level the playing field for our manufacturers. i come from a place where we have a strong manufacturing base. it hasn't always been treated fairly. we've had a lot of unfair trade deals that have been passed that have hurt the people i represent and we've had a lot of policies that frankly just didn't do them well. and we can do better. but here we are, 200-something days into this new congress under republican leadership and not a si

sutton if you care to share with us your thoughts. ms. sutton: i thank the gentleman for his leadership. he's been a stalwart. boy, do we need leadership at this point. here we are, it's been 29 weeks, more than 200 days since the republicans took over the majority of the house and not only have they not done anything to create jobs or help working families, here we are today, looking at what they have done. what have they done? after walking away from the table five times in negotiations to restore our neigh's fiscal house, the house republicans have passed a bill today to kick the can down the road so we can continue to have this debate over again in a matter of months. but make no mistake, this is a political dodge. republicans could not agree on a long-term solution within their own ranks, so they just decided to take a vote on a bill that kicks the can down the road, that they know there is not support for and it's a part of this pattern. what have they been doing in this over 200 days? they have an agenda that aims to end medicare t

>> well, what judge sutton said is on its face the statute is constitutional. he has implied there may be some situation where somebody will come forward who says, i have never used health care in my life, i will never use health care in my life, i can prove it, the law should not apply to me, and that might be a different case. we'll cross that bridge when we come to it. >> we have come to it, because the constitution has to apply to everybody. >> right, but a statute -- the first question is, has congress written a statute that is facially constitutional? could it be constitutional as applied to some people and as applied to 99.999% of the population people use health care. >> you say the statute presumes that everyone does use health care and it presumes that health insurance is an obligation that's a component of health care, and if it presumes that everyone is utilizing, then the constitutional rights of those who do not are directly, then, incorporated into that. so they don't have their constitutional rights unless they assert them. we have to pass legis

same reason willie sutton said while you rob bank, that's where the money is. >> this short-term deal will be really difficult to pull off. $2 trillion, a lot of money as al points out. the problem is, you have 30 to 50 republicans in the house that votes no on any increase in the debt ceiling, period. that means you need 20, 25 democratic votes on this thing. if you're doing anything to touch entitlements. nancy pelosi made it clear, no go. >> first of all, social security did not cause this. but democrats have been very clear that we cannot simply back -- continue to cut programs that benefit the middle class, that senior citizen, people with disabilities, without putting everything on the table. republicans, every time you put revenues on the table. they walk out, they say no deal. we want a short deal. a short deal is a cop-out. >> everybody knows entitlements have to be in play as well. if it hadn't been fort hardball negotiations, the president would not talk about entitlement. >> he put it on table. republicans came in the road and got the appetizer and said, you know what, mai

>> it's the willie sutton approach. control the budget. go to entitlements. nobody is talking balancing budgets of social security. what's on the table is the cost of living adjustments made to social security, the rate of increase of future benefits. we are not going to have seniors starving. >> of course not. why touch it unless the other side is going to give a little, too. >> fair enough. what you are seeing is what everyone is talking ability. what's going to be on and the conditions. president obama said nothing is agreed unless everything is. >> based on the president's statement and boehner's, they are pretty far along. it was not a statement. it was probably agreed upon following the meeting, the exact language. the secret negotiations will carry on through the weekend. if they come out with a deal that, as richard said, involves changes but not cuts but the democratic caucus or a large number of members in the caucus react and republicans revolt to changes to the tax code they view as a tax increase, plus the big cuts in defense budget, i think the
