senator tillis, welcome back. senator tillis: if i seem out of breath, it's because i am. i had a conflicting committee assignment. i want to thank the chair in the raking number for their leadership. it's an important issue to me personally. because i have been a caregiver. so i just want let you know that we not only need to focus on the research, we also need to make sure that we have the right funding, madam chair. excuse me. to make sure that the caregivers , they have the resources and the education that they need to do the best job for caregiving. my personal experience, i was a grandson of a grandmother who got alzheimer's at a relatively early age. i wasn't quite sure what i needed to do to help my grandmother, i was pretty certain that my mother and her two sisters were not doing it the right way. and other family members. that's why went back and took some college courses to actually better prepare me to help my mother and my two ounce -- aunts to be a better caregiver. i'm not going to ask you any questions, i will read the record. i wanted to communicate how i

senator thom tillis released a statement that read in part by all indications ms. lynch would continue to pursue the costly and frivolous lawsuit against the state of north carolina to overturn a common sense and constitutionally sound voter i.d. law. i will not be voting to confirm ms. lynch. well now maybe we have a clue. this delay doesn't make any sense if you think it's about making the self-interested choice of replacing eric holder with loretta lynch. but it does make sense if this puzzle is actually about president obama and a process congressional scholars call the new nullification where congress blocks nomination because there is political opposition to the laws that their positions helped to enforce. in other words, if you can't beat the president in an election you can use the new nullification to block the people that would enact the policies that he was elected to implement. joining me is wade henderson, president and ceo of the leadership conference on civil rights. wade what is going on? >> you have described the perfect rubic's cube of toxic parti

from his mother, he learned of the economy, moderation, self-control courtesy, jen tilly, honor, and devotion. the fact that he was in his room was duty. he had not asked others to accompany him. he had asked only one other officer to come that did not and that was walter taylor. walter taylor had gotten married , he only been married one week. he declined to come. general lee would not ask others to share in the trial of surrender. in 1825, he would attend the united states military academy and graduate in 1829. graduate second in the class of what he thinks -- of 46. he would become a member of the elite corps of engineers and be responsible for projects and saving the waterfront in st. louis. he and mary would have seven children -- three sons, all of which would serve in the confederate army, and four daughters. in the mexican war, he would serve on general scott staff -- general scott's staff. he would later say the general lee was the best soldier of the field. he would be superintendent of the united states military academy from 1852-1855. on april 17, 1861, virginia would sec

our esteemed colleague charles tilly and eric shaped his thinking in the early stages of the project became the money metropolis. professor beckert's first book the money metropolis, new york city and the consolidation of the american bourgeoisie. published in 2000 money metropolis examined the surprise lake and it is surprising is the pricing, surprise lake unlikely social consolidation of wealthy new yorkers in the 19th century to become the most powerful social group in the united states. working with the professors, professor beckert told me before it emboldened him to take of capitalism just as the professor was discussing, as a subject of historical and critical inquiry and to think about large social formations, large historical questions, to engage in comparative perspective, to broaden his analytic frame and to encompass the entire globe. all of these moves have fallen out of favor in the discipline of history at that time. so in the last 15 years since he published that book, professor beckert has led the emergence of a new history of capitalism as a subfield within the dis

senator tillis. >> mr. harrison you made an interesting point about the one-to-one relationship of streamers versus broadcast. in your opinion today and i think mr. miller's concerned about being unjustly compensated in your opinion when he normalized that weighty feel like the streamers are justly compensated? >> tandoor is the highest paid form of radio there is. we pay more than terrestrial or satellite radio. i think the best performing song by mr. miller on pandora is country girl which i believe was recorded by tim mcgraw. last year 2014 pandora would have paid around $7000 to mr. miller. his two writers in the six publishers list on that song candidly pandora would have paid close to $90,000 to mr. mcgraw and his record label. i understand the disparity is a motivating factor for mr. miller and mr. pincus and ms. matthews to seek to modify the consent decrees but at the end of the day if tandoor is paying 50% of its revenue to the publishers i can't make that up in quality. if there is going to be if

i tilly would say that the flexibility he talked about is exactly what does exist in this program. and you're all talking about the great amount of money being spent. it is because there is so much need out there. and we have a real crisis in this country. the fact of the matter is that every state in the nation has at least one medicaid waiver. and there are over 350 waivers nationwide. states can already decide who they cover, what benefits they provide, and how they deliver health care services. if states want to experiment with different models, they've got the ability to do it. you all say that people can't have good access to doctors. but through it people don't want to take them. but numerous studies have shown medicaid has improved access to primary care and preventive services. the landmark medicaid study in oregon found that people with medicaid were 40% likely to have suffered a decline in their -- >> the lady's time has expired. the question is on agreeing to the amendment by miss engel. the nos have it. >> i would ask for a roll call vote. >> the clerk will call the ro

senator tillis i get to ask another question. my question is for both. it was mentioned earlier that you look at delirium as well. i am wondering if there is research that shows that delirium and older people after surgery where a general anesthetic has been involved which i have seen cases of can be a trigger. is there a link? can that be a trigger? is there a link between the delirium that you sometimes see an older people after an operation that involves a general anesthetic and dementia? >> good points. good data. the 1st, delirium can be succeeded or followed by decreasing cognitive function at a progression of dementia. the answer appears to be yes. yes. so also for general anesthesia even if there is not delirium. they can be a short-term decline in cognitive function. the the failure to recover relatively quickly is also predictive. both of these do seem to be capable of affecting the functional decline. >> i agree. it pertains to it pertains to the issue of what we call cognitive reserve. how much resilience it has to respond. sometimes the peop

tillis: thank you mr. president. mr. president, i come here today to stand in support of senate resolution 8. my friend and colleague from tennessee, i thank him for bringing this to the floor. and disapproving a rule that the national labor relations board has set forth that basically creates what are called ambush elections. and that's for forming a labor union. the concern that i have with this legislation is that it's just another what i consider to be example of the hyperpartisan environment that we find the national labor relations board over the past several years. it's advancing a pro-union agenda. it's a policy that's not necessary, particularly in light of the fact that some 70 union elections with the current -- 70% of union elections with the current policy are successful. i guess that the national labor relations board is not satisfied with winning 70% of the time. they want to run up the score and allow unionization 100% of the time. and many people when they think about labor unions and they think about or
