we can fix the welfare state which was set up fix the welfare state which was set up in1945 aftera fixerent set of assumptions. we are seeing a real attack on the welfare state by the government, dismantling it. on the other side it is not fit for purpose in many senses because of the assumptions it was based on. people are going to food banks because of problems with the benefits. how much would be? it depends on how much progressive taxation you want... you mean how much you want. who would pay for this? two it would be a change in the welfare state. in 0ntario, change in the welfare state. in ontario, canada, places on the continent, they are doing this. that is how you have to do this. iain duncan smith talk about universal credit. he fell 6—7 years behind schedule. you need to work out how it is affordable and do it. you are talking about a four—day week, but this country is run like a small business. who will compensate small businesses having to pay the same wages but with less activity? the idea is you get more productivity per worker when you don't work such long hours. that i

. >> let's be clear, the welfare state, to try to take a piece of the welfare state out, you have to play the long game. in 6 months -- it took a year to create. we have a few -- to chop it down. success of amendments to those bills, it looks like each iteration looks like you are doing obamacare light and who knows when the end will come? >> the question comes up, whether this gets in the way of that. and as a result. >> there is the other -- >> the gop blue it, government should be involved. they will always have these sites and these sort of things. it could come down to some type of thing. and and it is a crazy thing that is quite environmental. >> >> they cut out the taxes. and it has never been put into place. medicaid expansion doing this to 2024, 7 years from now. and i have to say republicans need plan b. if you want to rip this away rip it away like a band-aid, rip it away like a band-aid, what incentives can get insurers to serve 2 people? neil: the vote is still scheduled for the july 4th research, unlike speaker paul ryan, mitch mcconnell doesn't care whether the votes a

quite ravaging, that's created these huge divides in society, that has brought upon a crisis in the welfare state — you know, the minute you have somebody likejeremy know, the minute you have somebody like jeremy corbyn know, the minute you have somebody likejeremy corbyn saying that in a political capacity, people respond to it, because it resonates. but he still has to deal with the issue of brexit because labour is split as much as the tories are. yes, but the overarching theme in context of framework within which that will happen is a very changed framework. he has managed to shift politics and the framework of our discussion to the framework of our discussion to the left in a really significant way. it was mentioned, 50 senior labourmps, and we way. it was mentioned, 50 senior labour mps, and we saw the list of them, you know — they are still to a degree and oppositionist wing within the plp, and they will represent the majority view within that parliamentary party as well. there has been criticism that he didn't go to armed forces day as well. just put that in very quickly because some pape

the legacy of the welfare state and the back that's had and how that manifest itself. when blacks were closing those gaps in education income or homeownership back in the first half the 20th century, you saw much stronger black families for example. more two parent black families. as late as 1960, two out of three black children were being raised by black parents. today more than 70% are not. i think that is one area where if we want to rectify the situation, that should be a focus. host: jason riley author of "false black power" and senior fellow at the manhattan institute. the book is available if you want to read more of his thoughts. mr. riley, thanks for your time this morning. guest: thank you. host: coming up we're going to discuss election reform efforts with two member of the group fairvote.org. krist novoselic the founding member of the band nirvana rob richie joining us. later on it's your money segment. trump administration wants to see over two percent pay increase for members of the military and some in congress wants to see more than that. scott maucione

we need toned tory austerity, cancel attacks on the welfare state and invest in public services. , ukip are fighting to stay relevant and pushing for a hard brexit. i mean a brexit where we reduce immigration, where we don't pay a divorce feel and where we take back full control of our waters. don't go out and vote tory, vote for the real deal, ukip. it is really only the green party looking ahead and saying we have a wave of automation coming in, we have to tackle the job losses. also, we aren‘t going to waste £110 billion renewing trident. it is only by having a strong team of plaid cymru mps that will make sure that wales' voice is taken seriously and not ignored in the way it has been since the referendum took place, last june. of course it's power here the parties are all competing for and they'll be using the last few hours of the campaign to win over waivering voters. to help to return their candidate to the house of commons. now, though, it‘s overto you. time to make your mind up and choose who you‘d like to see as our next prime minister. now let‘s get the latest from the

that is the world we live in today and those are two individuals who believe they should be an idea. >> when you spend a trillion dollars a year on federal and state welfare programs with very little to show for it, you do start to get an appetite for something like guaranteed basic income. the problem is it only works if you completely dismantle the welfare state we currently have which is 125 federal programs and state programs. that's not going to happen. also it has some moral problems. creates an idea you have an array to other other people's y for no reason whatsoever and it kind of hurts initiative and drive. >> bill: on a serious matter, is this going to happen? >> no, but it is getting some traction. not only on the left. charles murray, a conservative thinker at the american enterprise institute has his own plan. his view is the welfare bureaucracy is such a mess. let's get rid of it, roll it into one check and say goodbye. the big problem is who is supposed to get this money? if it's a universal program, that means everybody gets it. everybody would be entitled to it whether you are mark zuckerberg or someone homeless. they can't be right. the

the welfare against state. it is what i call couch potatoes sipping beer on sofas. in 1960, some of the worst ghettos, where the children were 20%. by the year 2000, new orleans, out of wedlock children, 85%. that is what a welfare state does. they don't find ways to collect many -- money. thank you. from clermont, florida. caller: i want to talk about the automation problem. you have autonomous cars coming in 15 years. you will have autonomous factories, and jobs will not be available. so people will not have the income to buy. you will have some kind of a system where people who don't work will need to have an income to purchase things. this is where the minimum income ideae universal income comes from. host: let's go to kay. she is independent from missouri. caller: thank you for taking my call. i am referring to some of the conversations with catherine mangu-ward. there are coming from the middle three country, there are things that poor people need that they do not have or that have been allowed to languish in our society for reserves as luxuries. and they are a

they want to maintain the welfare state. and never really pay for it. and that's the fallacy. so you can't adjust taxes to deal with that problem. this is structural. it's anti-constitutional. but he did mention less regulations and that's good. less complicated tax coats and that's good. but the revenue neutral stuff and hoping for economic growth to pay for these bills, it's a dream. kennedy: it's shifting the tax burden and turning it into grease. where would you like to see republicans start? do you think there is hope of something like a flat tax which is obviously more than simplifying a few brackets? ron: no, i don't think it will happen. there are too many obstacles. i remember the first speech i gave in politics in 1974. i said the thanks code ought to be simplified. maybe we could get by with a 10 per tax, never higher. the churches don't ask for more than 10%. the government total should never get more than 10% of our earnings. and now i agree it might be too much if you want limited government. a flat tax might offer something. but it will never happen. what ryan w

there is no commitment to the big ideas such as the basic income, reform of the welfare state, lookingare saying that we have got this wave of automation coming in and how we tackle those job losses. we're not going to waste £110 billion renewing trident, which labour says it probably would never use. what a ridiculous thing, it is hms pointless. goldthorpe in barnsley is still recovering from the miners' strike of the 80s. it's a traditional labour heartland that saw pits close all around it — driving huge unemployment that is still an issue today. ukip have come second in this constituency before — but with no candidate this time where will their votes end up? james vincent reports. goldthorpe still bears the scars of the miners strike but across the road on the old pit, progress and houses are being made and there is a feeling that life is getting better, here. when it comes to elections, down at the reform club, they have seen it all before and they are not impressed. when they say things, do you trust what they are saying? now. it isjust words. you trust what they are saying? now.

we need to cancel the tax welfare state and invest in our public services. le in the negotiations. finally, whatever those negotiations conclude people in scotland should get a choice as to whether they uk that emerges from brexit is the one they voted for three years ago. us media are reporting that fired fbi directorjames comey told the attorney generaljeff sessions that he did not want to be left alone with the president. it's one of a slew of allegations relating to donald trump and the investigation into alleged russian involvement in the 2016 us election. tomorrow james comey will testify before a senate hearing. this afternoon four of america's top intelligence officials are set to face questions. we can now speak to our washington correspondent, laura bicker. obviously his appearance tomorrow is keenly anticipated that tell us more about these media reports circulating that he told the attorney general he did not want to be left alone with the president. these are reports are collated by the washington post and the new york times they allege that jame

the advent of the welfare statement's transferring -- state meant transferring the private sector to the national government. in doing so, it created new responsibilities, not only for the president, but for the national government. he redefined traditional individualism. the government modern presidency, and i think must regulate and sustain agency, they must help people navigate the uncertainties of he market. that was an unthinkable -- what his unthinkable -- what his opponents would say, an unthinkable a trooijen into people's lives. roosevelt believed that to manage the great depression, he had to build the welfare state and that would only happen through a very strong executive office. we looked last week at woodrow wilson, and teddy roosevelt. he built upon an institutionalized the modern concept of presidential power that wilson and tr first inaugurated. tr first inaugurated. the new deal, we can look at roosevelt's second 100 days, roosevelt's second 100 days, the new deal, which did not have the same array of dizzying legislation, but the laws that were passed and legislati

the existing welfare state was set up the existing welfare state was set up with a different set of assumptionsthings changing and the assault by this government on our welfare state. we think we can reimagine it. progressive taxation can provide security. the people need to have choices. we will leave it there. thank you very much. tonight on bbc one at 9pm there is a question time special. as we have been reporting in the last half an hour another victim of saturday's attack at london bridge has been named, james mcmahon and. his sister melissa said the family now believe he is dead in a distressing statement. this morning we received news from the police that my brother's bank card was found on one of the bodies from saturday night's brutal attack but they are unable to formally identify him until the coroner's report begins tomorrow. we would like to send our condolences to the relatives and loved ones of all the people who lost their lives. 0ur all the people who lost their lives. our thoughts are with them also at this time. we would like to thank all the members of the services dominic d

but i believe in the welfare state. we are all, to coin a phrase, in it together. i say, the average amount we will be paying per week is the price of a cup of coffee. let me move on. if you want the best nhs and social care in the world, that is what we should. you have said no, i want to move on. yes, but i want to make a point. i know you do. well, make it quickly. remember, this is an interview, not a party political broadcast. i get that. well, i'm not sure you do, mr farron. my father's, my grandfather's sorry, my father—in—law‘s passage into alzheimer's and at the moment, we are seeing wonderful people care for him, who can earn more stacking shelves at the supermarket. and that is why we need to invest more in health and social care. i'm going to move on. and the penny... no, you've said enough mr farron. i insist we move on. i accept your insistence. the royal college of psychiatrists says that the regular use of cannabis doubles the risk of developing a psychotic episode or long—term schizophrenia, but you want to legalise it? well, here i am, as the lead

make no mistake, the tories have sought to undermine faith in the welfare state itself. they have set out very deliberately to stigmatize those on benefits. of course, no one should be allowed to abuse the system. but their rhetoric is cover for the hardship they are causing to those who work hard and struggle to get by on low incomes. children, the elderly, women, the disabled, even the bereaved are bearing the brunt. there are around nine billion pounds in social security cuts still to come over the next four years. not surprisingly, the tories want to press ahead with every single penny. what is surprising is that labor is pledging to reverse less than a quarter of those cuts. so let me be clear today, snp mps will stand against all of the further planned cuts to sol social security. [ applause ] we will do so because they punish the disabled and those who work hard to make ends meet. we also support the reversal of the two child cap on tax credits and we will -- [ applause ] we will campaign tirelessly against the immoral rate clause that goes with it. [ applause ] th

this is one of the chief reasons there was an limitation on the welfare state before the 20th century. likewise, income transfers would have the same effect. this was what it was an argument against the income tax. income tax is a tax on people with high income. people have high income because they are engaging in the right kind of behavior, frugal, hard-working, why tax them? that is discouraging productive behavior. you don't want to do that anymore than you want to encourage vicious behavior by giving welfare to the undeserving poor. the assumption is that people are economically successful because of their virtuous behavior, and that is called into question in the 19th and 20th centuries as well. but those are the assumptions of the connection between moral and economic outcomes. it continued into the 20th century, that really took a beating with the great depression. when charity was administered into the early 20th century, it was called indoor relief. we want to do is take the deserving poor outside of their morally dangerous environment and put them into asylums or orphanages

he's saying the welfare state is ultimately holding everybody down. >> he's a moron to the core. >> but you voted for his color. >> yeah. we voted for his color, not for his qualifications because we wanted to see someone that looked like us in a position but all along we never did a research on his integrity, his motives. we didn't do any of that. >> they also describe a poisonous relationship with milwaukee police. >> this is one of the most rogue police departments in the country. >> my chest tightens because i wonder whether someone important to me helped create this fear and loathing in police. back when i was a bump in mom's belly and their elders marched for fair housing, punches and tear gas, as the sate tried to contain the unrest, the tip of the spear was the notorious tactical squad, led by a cop so controversial, they burned him in effigy and put his face on wanted posters. >> crimes against the people. conspiracy to violate the civil rights of black people, minority groups, general inability to function as a feeling member of the human race. but while milwaukee knew

not all do. >> the welfare exploded through immigrants and the poor is not true either. we've turned welfare over to the states and dramatically cut benefits and 23% of people eligible for welfare are getting welfare. so, the fact that there is a lot of immigrants running around on welfare is just not a correct assumption. david: well, sabrina. >> or that it should be limited. david: i hear you. some forms have exploded like food stamps, for example, but we also have a figure, this is by the senate for illegal-- for immigration studies and this is for legal and illegal immigrants. as a conservative group, they estimate 6 $6,234 that go to immigrants in this country. >> certain, we have a problem, but the problem is much bigger. it's sort of a failed immigration system in general. we ought to be able to sort of decide on a better immigration policy because the last thing that we want is for people to come here who want to have a better life for themselves, and to turn into sort of second class or third class citizens who don't have all the rights of americans, and i think that that is sort of eyebrow raising wi

and the vulnerable in our community so we need to end tory austerity and cancel the attacks on the welfare statenvesting in our public services. after the vote to leave the eu ukip are fighting to stay relevant and pushing for a hard brexit. are fighting to stay relevant and pushing for a hard brexitli are fighting to stay relevant and pushing for a hard brexit. i mean a brexit where we reduce immigration and we don't pay a divorce bill. don't go and vote for tory and vote for the real deal which is ukip. the green party are saying we have got this wave of ought owemation coming in and how we tackle the job losses. it's only by having a strong team of plaid cymru mps will we make sure that wales' voice is taken seriously and not ignored in the way it has been since the referendum took place la st been since the referendum took place lastjune. been since the referendum took place last june. of course, been since the referendum took place lastjune. of course, it's been since the referendum took place last june. of course, it's power here, the parties are all competing for and they will be using th

conservatives say well if we make a mistake all we're really doing is bringing and into into the united states more of a welfare state is if you know as if just making him a state by doing that it's going to be a bigger burden on us taxpayers those are always the arguments that you hear the right wing talking about but you don't hear about the you don't hear about the other side of that story it's almost this as if the media has done such a poor job telling telling the story about how the us has been such predators down there in puerto rico we know that the recent vote even though the turnout was. oh approved a measure to move forward with statehood so where does it go now the state said you know even there was a small turnout twenty three percent turnout ninety seven percent of that turnout said yeah we want to become a state where does this go now in what is in your take the likelihood of that happening with this particular congress that we have right now. in order for puerto rico to become a state there has to be a joint resolution from both congress and the president is i think we both agree that the likeli

the dismantling of the post-welfare state already underway with pick up pace. are already predicting the biggest rise in inequality since the 1980s. they say the incomes of households will fall i can present over the next four years. and the tory policy will drive 1 million more children across the uk into poverty. just think about that. 1 million more children. that means that by 2021, there could be more than 5 million children across the uk, never equivalent to the total population of scotland, living in poverty in one of the richest countries in the world. that is shameful. [applause] >> that is shameful. our manifesto puts it at the very heart of this election. l jobs would be lost, too. as the tories threaten to turn the backs not just on the eu, but on the single market as well. that is why more than ever before we need strong snp voices at westminster to stand up to the tories and to stand up for scotland. [applause]ntry, we >> as the country face big challenges, but we have made so much progress. we mustn't let westminster government drag us backwards.

roads and airports, there was no commitment to the big ideas like the basic income, reform of the welfare stateparty thatis lives. it is only the green party that is looking ahead and saying that is looking ahead and saying that we have got this wave will automation coming in and we have got to think about how we tackle those job losses. and we wasting £110 billion renewing trident which labour says it would probably never use? it is ridiculous, it is hms pointless! the shooting incident in the iranian parliament is over. reuters is picking up on that, coming out of iran. the islamic state group has claimed it has been behind two attacks in tehran, one targeting parliament, and one at the shrine of the revolutionary founder, ayatolla h shrine of the revolutionary founder, ayatollah khomeini. in the reigning parliament it has been reported that four attackers are dead. —— in the iranian parliament. across wales, a0 seats are up for grabs. labour hold 25 of them. north wales has seen some of the most fierce election campaigning over the last few weeks. anglesey is seen as a 3—way battle between l

stuart: john lonski, economically this is very bad news, because the welfare state continues to grow, ability to put it back, a problem for the economy over long term. >> it will go on until it finally breaks the back of the u.s. economy in a manner comparable what happened to brees. p unfortunately difficult to stop for the political reasons outlined. stuart: we're not there yet. >> right now we have u.s. government debt at 77% of gdp. that is the highest ratio during a recovery in recent memory. usually it is no higher than 35% of gdp. this is why you have a big fight over health care because there is really no way of funding it, funding it to the extent giving people programs they want. you want it, fund health care, expand the tax base. you want to expand the tax base? expand the definition of sin taxes. go beyond alcohol and tobacco, look at sugar and salt. liz: president obama, under obamacare, more able-bodied working people went on medicaid. we've never seen that in the history of the country to that degree. now estimated one in four, one in five people on medicaid? it is for

no commitment to the big ideas like the basic income reform and the welfare state, looking at how we ying, we have this wave of automation coming in, you will have to think about how we tackle those job losses. but we're not going to waste £110 billion renewing trident, which labour says would probably never use. that is pointless, isn't it? let's use that money to give a kiss of life to the nhs. we have to look at the money that labour are proposing to spend. it is not really enough. everybody knows how much has to be invested in the nhs. we are going to have to go so much further to create a 20 per century health service. on a lighter note, it is wednesday today. it is. which day is the day that you do not want to be pa rt the day that you do not want to be part of the working week? we want to give people choice and flex ability. that is part of being realistic about the 215t century. we have busy lives, we have job shares, like i do with caroline lucas. that is already happening in the civil service, in business, in the charity sector, in westminster. people need those choices. we

had with medicaid saying no matter what the bills are, we'll kick in a portion and states will kick in the rest. it would be a pretty unprecedented rollback of welfare programs. usually one of the things we see in the united states and abroad is it is very hard to roll back benefits once they're out and it's a key challenge that republicans have dealt with in this debate, is that there are 20 million or so people relying on obamacare and it's very hard to take something away once it's been given out. robert: phil, you were on the campaign trail with president trump and you heard him say he doesn't want to go after medicare and medicaid but now he seems to be rallying behind this ideological agenda of congressional republicans on healthcare. why? philip: he wants to win. he wants to be able to do what he said he would do, get rid of obamacare and change it which he calls a disaster so he wants a change but it's risky for him. he was elected on the backs of working class people in states like michigan, wisconsin, pennsylvania. he had so much support in west virginia and these are states that are really probably going to be battered by these changes to

josh holmes, founder of washed management firm cavalry is saying the left is creating a welfare state. >> it is taking a significant large to the left and the reason it has, exactly what you have outlined, democrats have incremental way to get to ultimate goal which is socialize, nationalize single-payer system. so you create an entitlement program for the elderly and entitlement program for the young and entitlement program for the poor and then ever expand eligibility for all three and that's what we've got here today. this is a delicate balance. it is extremely delicate balance and the alternative, just so that we are clear, the alternative to 51 votes is obamacare. heather: today marks it last day before the supreme court summer recess and major rulings could come down at any time this as there's speculation that's growing that a justice could be stepping down. pathy anne brown live with those details. >> the supreme court is gearing up for last public session today but before the justices long summer break they have key decisions to announce. we could hear as soon as today what a

president trump proposed new immigration rules that would bar newcomers from the united states -- to the united states from receiving welfare for five years. the welfare law signed into law added adent clinton prohibition on immigrants becoming public charges has been law for more than a century, but experts say enforcement of both provisions, particularly the public charge requirement, have been lacking. mr. trump also vowed he would still build a wall along the mexican border, saying , "so iten considering creates energy and pays for itse lf." good morning. caller: thank you for taking my call. i will try to be as concise and brief as i can. i listened to the testimony yesterday, and i am really appalled that a former holder of security clearance -- what brought to mind was the commercial you see on television about a bank being robbed, and a guy standing there saying, "oh, i just monitor the bank, i cannot do anything about it." who aretical parties entrusted with the integrity of our elections are woefully inept. they don't have the understanding of security breaches. they don't have the equipment. bys stuff cannot be c

another thing we need to do desperately is president obama waved the work requirements in virtually every welfare program in every stateand union. we need to put those requirements back. so, i'm not worried about america's being willing to work if we're willing to provide the incentive for them to go to work. >> i appreciate you mentioning the regulatory burden and what it's doing to our community banks and the fact that we are moving into this european style of doing things, where you're really trying to take the risk out of capitalism with our community banks. and the regulatory burden that they are facing that is simply making it so difficult for small business, people with good ideas, to be able to get out and actually make those come to fruition and create the jobs that we need, so thank you very much for being here. >> when you take the risk out of capitalism, take the life out of it. >> that's exactly right. >> senator kennedy? >> senator, i'm sorry i'm late. i'm going to take your testimony home and read it. i wanted to test a thought out on you as to why we're not -- we're creating some jobs, but we're still a

the u.s. in a debilitated state. they were impoverished heavily. many of them began entering the charitable institutions. many americans thought they were abusing american welfare funded by american taxes. >> who determined if an irish immigrant would be turned away or deported? hidetaka: miley immigration officers. new york and massachusetts had their own immigration agencies who are taking care of the law enforcement. the state immigration officers impacted the condition of immigrants, and they excluded the acceptable classes. at the same time in massachusetts in particular, fed officers are limited to charitable institutions. when they discovered foreign-born inmates there, they deported back to europe. >> and you supported these measures? hidetaka: the natvivisits. diversemericans were groups of people. middle-class people detected the poverty and catholicism of the irish immigrants, and working-class people as well didn't like immigrants because they thought were the -- they were exact job competitors for americans. just like today's undocumented immigrants were accused of lowering wage standards for americans, working-class americans believe that irish im

recent reports very census data shows a third of state's revenue comes from the federal government to the. obviously in education it can vary greatly and welfare programs what the state is depending on the federal government for their share, transportation another one. in your conversations across the country, do you speak with governors about how states are driving federal spending and what can be done as that becomes part of a focus of our debt policy? >> i think it's a very important issue and something that i look forward to working with you on. it hasn't been my focus for the moment but i think it's a very important point. >> thank you. and mr. secretary, i was at a hearing with secretary tillerson before i came into this hearing and it was brought up by chairman cardin that rarely our committees on budget about the budget and they're about other things and so i'm going to vary from the script of the budget committee hearing, if you don't mind. i want to draw your attention and the colleagues to the attention that two reports that came out this past week regarding north korea and the first report released yesterday by an independent organ

the case, and, again, these aren't welfare recipients. these are your friends and neighbors. in all of our states, almost two-thirds of the nursing home residents are on medicaid. we're not going to be able to cut medicaid in the dramatic way that's been proposed without affecting those people. so, mr. president, i hope that this body will take the time necessary to really analyze this issue, to openly debate it, to argue about it, and to find solutions that make sense and will work for the people of america, not try to ram something through for the purpose of checking a box on a campaign promise made years ago. the reality is we have an obligation, in my view, not only to solve the problem in a compassionate and rational and efficient way, but also to develop and run a process here that respects the institution and respects the american people. it is not the way this place is supposed to run, to have a bill drafted in secret, brought to the floor within hours or a few days of its voting, and then force a vote without the kind of consideration, hearings, input, argument, and debate that is suppos

recent history, call it the last eight years, some with you we feel altruistic enough to welcome, everyone and give them a check. >> democrats want to turn this into welfare state. one way to do that, welcome everybody in the world to put them on welfare that breaks the system down. if the system is broken down, they have opportunity to implement their socialism/communism. that is part of the strategy from the left. we want independent-minded people that carry their own weight and help others. we need immigration, designed to enhance the economic and social, cultural well being of america. i want them to embrace our flag, our country, culture, way of life. seems i run up against resistance nearly every day in congress. trish: they say you're prejudiced. that you're not fair here. you're not giving everyone a chance. but, to your point, i mean, if he think about what is best for the nation, for the nation's economy, in terms of our own prosperity, don't we need to attract right kind of folks? we should be looking, where are we in need of people? what are professions we need to be bringing here? >> and there are two or three countries in the world, they're all en

there is a difference in approach between the white house and the state department, you had president trump coming down firmly on the side of the saudis and the welfareade against financing to terrorism and this would be a way to fight terrorism effectively and then you have the state department would have tried to take a much more neutral nuanced position and the secretary of state has been involved, not in a formal mediation but certainly a lot of contacts with the gulf arab states on both sides trying to get this resolution, this crisis resolved and you had some quite strongly worded statements from him last week saying to the saudis and allies, come up with your demands, why are you waiting around? we are beginning to think it is not about terrorism, it is about a long—standing political disputes that you're trying to air, and whether the mad committee said some of those look quite difficult for qatar to meet but at the same time there is some basis for you to start talking in june and there is some basis for you to start talking injune and the dialogue and a complete inclusion here. so it is something that the state department wishes was resolve

they really saw the face of a welfare state that has largely disappeared.o believe grenfell is a turning point. it's a hurricane katrina moment. >> reporter: during urgent safety spot checks in 120 public housing blocks across britain, cladding in every single case failed fire resistance tests. in the london borough of camden, the risk to tenants was compounded by other inadequate fire protection measures and considered so severe that the council ordered the immediate evacuation of 4,000 people over last weekend. >> i think they're behaving ridiculous, to be quite honest with you. because they've known for seven years about all this stuff. >> the system is broken, it's cracking up, and it's evident to see for everybody. >> reporter: as refugees from the wars of former yugoslavia alen and andrea kevric are used to leaving home in a hurry. the council gave them $7,500 for temporary accommodation during repairs, but a private rental agency rejected them. >> they actually realized who we are-- that we are plebs from social housing. and they don't want us there.

state interventions while building the esearch to better inform federal policy overall. my home state of illinois has led the nation in adretsing substance abuse issues in child welfare. we know that we need to do more to address this problem, and we know what works. and we know we can work bipartisanly to support families in addressing substance abuse so we can increase permanency and safety. when i ask foster youth what policymakers could do to make child welfare better, they almost always say, you could have helped my mom and dad. that is what we do today. so i urge passage of this important legislation and reserve the balance of my time. the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman reserves. the gentlelady -- the gentlewoman from south dakota is recognized. mrs. noem: having no other speakers i reserve the balance of my time. the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman from illinois is recognized. mr. davis: i yield three minutes to the gentlelady from california, representative bass. the speaker pro tempore: the gentlelady is recognized. ms. bass: mr. speaker, i rise in support of h.r. 2834, the partnership grants to strengthen families affected by parental sub stants abuse

we are proposing in the short term nothing more than a scandinavian welfare state, which in a country as wealthy as of yet should be common sense. that's part of our project and that's part of the project bernie sanders contribute so much to. people should expect more of the state. not asking for the state to alleviate heartbreak and suffering and angst forever. like even communism wouldn't do that. certain things are parts of it. the human condition. what we're asking for the states to provide a basic level of human dignity to allow people to reach their potential and so on. i think often there's a kind of voyeuristic view of poverty, whether in african-american meteor among poorer whites where people make it seem like these are impossible to decipher solutions. i see 60,000 homeless people in new york and i think hey, maybee we should build more high-quality public housing instead of letting the public housing we have deteriorated. i see poor people i think we should go -- build homes. at the level of politics i think it's common sense what direction our policy should be driven and

the united states. good sunday morning. why did you write the book? guest: i've been at this a while, working on arable protection and advocate for animal welfare, calling people to advance a broader notion of society, including the animals in that society. about how wereally need to marry our business practices with our values. business is a good thing in our society, business generates wealth and creates jobs and allows us to meet the necessities of life, to have recreation and do things we enjoy. when we conduct business, we should not forget about our values. many businesses have animals built into the model, food agriculture is animal production for food or food retail operations. cosmetic companies that may test on animals. , we say thatesses businesses are going to thrive in the 21st century are those that adhere to animal welfare, and it's because we care about animals in our society. two thirds of american households have pets, we love nature and we like to see animals in the wild. we have anti-cruelty statutes in every state in the nation. it's a felony now in every state in the country to exhibit malicious conduct towards animals. it's a univ
