to go back to mr. mcclintock's remarks, i think there are other unintended consequences in terms of loss of oversight and institutional power just by simply elongating the time. anyway, with that i thank my friend for allowing me to offer reflection. >> compliments to all of you for making very good arguments on both sides of the issue. thank you mr. chairman for having this hearing. yield back my time. >> thank you all for being here. substantial commitment of your time. i appreciate that. you've got sitting behind you three students from emery university. if you're ever going to have young people on who are counting on us to get this right come to a hearing, it's one with a kind of serious bipartisan search for solutions that this one has been. i appreciate the encouragement as i know they do as well. this hearing with the permission of the ranking member is adjourned. >>> thursday on cspan3, the house oversight committee holds a hearing on executive branch oversight and information access. they'll q

think we need to get this force of course to a level to be able to prevent reemergence of sanctuaries, and that means preventing the taliban from taking over areas because of the connection we see they would potential invite al-qaeda back in. so this means training advice this is to support. so the two critical part of a policy, counterterrorism and train, advise and assist, militant fashion in my military piÑata cracked once. the issue is come is what capability in each of those areas do we need going forward? i would not advocate for a change to the policy. my roll of course is to deliver how to execute the policy militarily. i think those two components are necessary. and i once had a chance to do the assessment and see, given this emergence of the iskp, given al-qaeda presence in the region, what, do we have the right size cd forced? been on the train, advise and assist hardware the right size advisor forced? everything i would mention there is a couple considerations i will look at the what level, down to what level. right now we are at the core level and institutional level. and

the terrorists that are trying to recruit others to harm us, is to continue to be a beacon to people throughout the world. the fact that many of the very same people who those terrorists would like to recruit, in fact, are seeking admission to the united states is the most indictment of what they are trying to do. that inspires me as much as anything else to do the work that i do as uscis director. thank you chairman, for having me here today. >> thank you. i will raise myself for five minutes of questioning. director, i'm going to make a certain -- a series of what i think are fact actuually -- hypotheticals or realities are no good if there's an incorrect assertion. it appears as if the female terrorist in california entered the united states in july of 2014 on a k visa. and there's an application process which includes some level of investigation on our end. and as i understand the application process, it may well be that uscis and the state department have some level of engagement, at least at the application process. and then as i understand it, there is or is supposed to be an

this is way to make the well-to-do even more well-to-do. the side effect of this uneven distribution of money is painfully apparent to anyone who shops at a grocery store. over the past 15 years, the price of white bread has increased by over 50% while the price of aches has more than doubled. -- eggs has more than doubled. the price of housing has also appreciated significantly in many areas. when adjusting for inflation, the price of housing in san francisco has increased by 58% over just 25 years. real household income for regular americans has declined 10% over the past 15 years. higher rent and higher grocery bills cause lower-income workers to incur more loans and credit card debt, which involve far higher interest rates than what the banks and wall street are currently paying. these low-income workers do not get the luxury of receiving the fed's newly created money first, nor do they have the luxury of receiving the near-zero interest rates that the wealthy do. as a result, one thipg is for certain: the fed's price control on interes

have to pay it for it to be privatized and congress is going to have to pay it to leave it the way it is, where's the in between of public and private in sharing in that cost? >> well, by moving to flood as part of the standard homeowners and commercial property insurance, what happens is the federal government stops being on the hook for flood insurance losses. it means that the private market is responsible for accepting the exposures, pricing them appropriately, and paying in the claims. the bleeding stops. and that's what's necessary at this point in time. so you accomplish several things by putting it with the private-with the private market along the proposal we've made. you not only stop the hemorrhaging of federal money, but -- number one -- but number two, you get better pricing. you get more comprehensive coverage and you get better opportunities for loss mitigation. you get private insurers now incentivize to get involved in lost mitigation for flood in a way they currently have no interest in doing now. >> for the same of time i'm going to move on quickly to you, mr. brads

we are going going to have to come to grips with that. if we could educate the federal leadership and by the way we have the exact same problem a few years ago, we might might be able to get a better appreciation of the play between the economics of cyber security and the technology of cyber security. the real problem that you are speaking to in my opinion, mostly comes in the smaller business elements of cyber security. if you going to deal with the major defense contractors, frankly, you compensate them perfectly well, they have good cyber security. but good cyber security. but because of our procurement system there required to farm out a lot of the procurement to smaller firms in the smaller firms do not have the economy and scale to meet the standards. we have to find a way to provide incentives for those lower companies to come up to grade. it is is not economic from their business point of view in order to do that. we think there are number of suggestions we have made, referred to in my oral statement and my trade association paper

for me to give my full support, to put my name on this charter amendment, i'm going to want to see some added language. that's something that's going to be really important to me and i feel like i represent part of san francisco that has seen the reports that have come out of the deficiencies and inadequacies of service in our district compared to other districts and that's not to, like, barb rr the department in any way, there's huge limits to the service that the workers give to the rec and park department, but it's really how our city works overall to serve communities that are often underserved. so i don't mean it to be a threat but i do want to make sure that we have a thorough presentation of what could be before us in terms of language to improve this charter amendment and get it to be something that i think will be worthy of broad support at the board of supervisors. supervisor tang. >> thank you very much for your comments, supervisor avalos and supervisor farrell for the additional amendments that you have proposed. last time that this item came up before us i had actually dis

you try to institute to try to fix those things?ny immediate thoughts? >> i'll just throw out there that if there were a way for all corporate america to understand that because i think there is a myth or stereotype out there that aren't -- what people in the people is not necessarily a fit if the private sector. >> he did a great job. >> he did. say someone -- what good is being infantryman doing at a hotel? you have responsibility, managed a budget, polite to people when it's appropriate, led, good team building skills all of these are intangibles which is impossible to create anywhere else as robustly as we do. we have a lot of education courses going on in the military. a lot of our folks have more in the military percentagewise started secondary education than the -- or in civilian sector. people understand how robust we are, that will be a great start. >> right, justin. thank you. karen? >> i would ask people not label all veterans as people looking for a handout. people who expect something in return for something that we all

to enable us to do that.because i would just dread having meetings in which we're talking about the sprinkler system that didn't work at the wrong time, you know. >> that is the idea. >> okay >> i think i would also suggest as you do your outreach to talk to our airport that has done a good job with retail and marketing and the parking lot. >> we have done that. >> you have done that? >> yes, director we have talked to the airport and the port. >> how does that fit in? >> if you could speak to that, please? there are different models on one end of the spectrum, the airport being on another and if could you speak to that? >> we had a number of conversations with the airport and port authority. as you well know director nuru, the airport runs their own facilities, their own retail. they select their own tenants and they have relationships with their own tenants. in this model that we're recommending over here, we are, as i just described, we're going to enter into -- again in the airport model, all of the risks

if you're are not going to stand up to megyn kelly, how are you going to stand up to china, to putin, to nuclear iran? he said he was going to repeal every word of obamacare and put ineffective reform that is beneficial to the country and its citizen. what ted cruz could have said is that donald trump's health care reform mirrors that of bernie sanders. it is a socialite system. that is what donald trump wants. on illegal immigration, i ted cruz hit it out of the park. he wanted more amnesty. he won at the borders to be basically less secure. we estimate of these people by not what they're saying today, but what is in their record. the other place enough it out of the park, in the state of iowa, he is saying, renewable fields will do better in the free market. given of the mandate, subsidies. , hee donald trump has been has been saying, i will grace the establishment because they know i am all about the art of the deal. they are things that you should not be playing the art of the deal with. you are going to need to have a principled conservative who has been consistent in their appro

used to be you had to log out and log on again to report. now there's an interface where you go right to the pharmacy board and we fixed the pharmacy board too. these are all really great things. what's happening now is the price of prescription drugs, because we've limited the supply, has gone up. so people can get heroin next to nothing. grandma, clean out your cabinets. clean out those cabinets because i believe the single biggest entry to heroin, the fastest way to get there is prescription drugs. i can't get them. i can't get oxycontin. so now i go to heroin. now we have a problem in ohio with another drug. listen how wacky this is. there's a drug that they give you if you're dying of cancer. it's called fentanyl. i may have said it wrong. i may not have pronounced it right, but they can take that drug and lace it with heroin to give you an even stronger effect. that means that there are people that are actually taking this stuff making money taking it out of the hospitals. i mean, it's just nuts. every time you get your hand on it ther

we're going to keep marching and we're going to keep working from the streets to the suites to preserve dr. king's dream. that's what we're here to say. i bring our keynote speaker, i'm moving fast, i know that most times at breakfasts you all eat and then hear speeches but we are doing two cities. we are marching in harlem this afternoon so you can eat quie y quietly, use the right fork, slurp your coffee quietly but we are going to move through the program because there are others that are going to be doing your day of service because dr. king was about service. dr. king was not about profiling. he was about service. and we want to bring our keynote speaker on. we are also going to hear from the secretary of education and we are honored to have both of them with us this morning and we are going to present awards to those that we have felt have operated in their sphere in the tradition of dr. king. the lady that i am about to present has personified what dr. king's dream was about. she's the daughter of a minister who excelled in her education and went into law, the law enforcement com

so we had to make big investments to try to clean up.hings we can do and then potentially doing some work with the current income-tax credit to help millions around the country get out of poverty. and the issue of medicine to bring together all the resources we have around a new medical breakthroughs. in a lot of diseases that people suffer from but it is a good story and not as politically controversial as other issues. i would also raise the minimum wage. i would love to get immigration reform passed. jedi realistic congress will not act on those controversial issues. that is where people have to make a decision in this election. to decide which direction america and needs to go stickies people have been neglected. >> mr. president ion said district court judge here. also their reentry court judge and i did notice when you spoke at the state of the union you did adjust blood dash address criminal-justice reform. and then with those opportunities you probably know more then i do. >> can i get with your people?

the city to implement a procedure to hold sign presenters, or whatever you want to refer that to them, told him accountable for potentially a mrs. d. >> welcome it was legislation that helped enable that process by requiring inventories be submitted by the sign companies. we could have enforced them all along and had been against illegal signs but without an inventory it became with the inventory it became a lot quicker >> i see. so, proposition g made it clear what the law was going to be. but then like many laws-i'm not being facetious were sarcastic in any way-it's just a matter of fact, there often laws that are passed at the ballot box, and by the board of supervisors, were city government agency suddenly say, how are we going to enforce this. so, basically, for five years it was an experience or shall we call it where you were trying to enforce this proposition g but was cumbersome and i guess deemed impossible. all make an assumption. you can clarify this. then, somebody in city government came up with the idea were not going to be able to do this until we get a inventory of ev

have to get 20 minutes to do it.believe there are many issues, 60 seconds for this. >> 60 second. we'd appreciate it. >> there are so many issues that we haven't been able to discuss here. we have not fully discussed immigration reform, and the deplorable number of detention kampbs that our nation's now maintaining. we haven't discussed the shameful treatment that the people of puerto rico, our fellow americans who are being treated with by these hedge funds that are working them over. we haven't discussed the fact that in our own hemisphere, we have the danger of state failures because of drug traffickers and honduras and kwaut ma la and el valve dor, i guess the bottom line is this, look, we are a great people when we act at home and abroad. based on the beliefs that unite us. belief in the dignity of every person, our belief in our own common good, there is no challenge that is too great for us to overcome. provided we bring forward in these divided times, new leadership that can heal our divides at home and bring

went as a potential to win, people work harder to try to win. we have seen more competition in federal elections, and without using an increase in the length of campaigns and amount of resources devoted to campaigns. that's probably was going to be true with or without buckley. >> your comments may be think of what you come here when you hear about new regulations for new limits either on contributions or expenditures. and some people have made the point or the claim that money or efforts will still flow to try to influence elections, even indirectly. probably most famously in i guess around 2004 there were these 527 groups, the parties have issue ads that came up which been was before the mccain-feingold act obviously, but have there been studies showing after contribution limits were in effect, was there this hydraulic effect or money went to other avenues to try to influence the elections? >> well, certainly what you find on your hydraulic effect is that there is a lot of money, as i said before, that once the in the system. almost unlimited

to get to work. these types of investments don't happen overnight. they are the result of the hard work and positive changes we have made over the years. we overhauled worker's compensation and companies operating here have saved more than $320 million. we reformed medical malpractice and improved the climate. we have enacted reductions in business and consumer taxes. since taking office we have saved employers in west virginia more than $225 million dollars. this year we ranked higher than each of the neighboring states and this year's business tax climate index. companies are noticing thing changes and they are paying off in big ways in regions across the state. this september we joined officials from proctor and gamble to celebrate the ground breaking of the country's newest manufacturing plant. the first of its kind built in the united states in the 1970s. projects of this scope strengthen the economy and serve as an investment in our state and people. this factory located in the eastern panhandl

you don't know what's going to come out of there. >> able to use the pipes to talk to other inmates onferent floors. >> hello? >> it's called toilet talk, and nobody does it quite like gregory gadlin. >> the pressure makes it go downs. >>> at sacramento county jail's downtown facility, women make up about 10% of the inmate population. their housed on separate floor, from the men, but that doesn't keep them from meeting the men. >> talking on the bowl? >> smells like [ bleep ]. your breath stinks. [ laughter ] >> they are able to use the pipes to talk to other inmates on different floors. they usually bail out their toilet, take all the water out. once the line is cleared to the main pipe they're able to talk to somebody else and have a direct line of communication. >> hello? >> they got their face in the toilet bowl. know what i'm saying? that's nasty. you don't know what's coming out of there. >> you know?

with this effort to dismantle the affordable care act and to dd insult to injury, to deny millions of women access to health care choices by targeting planned planned. while the -- planned parenthood. while the year has changed, it is still the same. with all the pressing issues we face at home and abroad, the first thing that our republicans decide to bring to the floor the most pressing business to start 2016 was to take away access to affordable care to 22 million ericans and deny access to affordable care to 22 million women. that's not my figure but the nonpartisan congressional budget office that has looked at this legislation and concluded that as a result of this bill, 22 million americans will lose access to their affordable health insurance. so it will be the freedom to be uninsured, the freedom to not have any opportunity to have coverage when your family has health care needs. if you look at this chart, you can see that the affordable care act has already made a dramatic difference in bringing down the number of uninsured in the united states of america. and yet here we ar

voters they had to respond to. develop serious constitutional authority for the civil rights act of 1866 and presumably other legislative acts that would come along to clarify whatever ambiguity there was at the end of the war. they were also going to the polls. the 14th amendment was framed in part with the congressional elections of 1866 in mind. it was meant to go to the public. they will be able to sustain whatever course reconstruction took. in that sense, a second critical aspect of thinking about the amendment is to say for those purposes you might only need a certain level of generality. you would not have to sort out the exact meaning in approach to immunities. it is enough to have the general principle out there. nelson's argument over and over again. a very focused argument that the best way to understand the privilege of immunities is to put their versus baltimore, the 1833 case in which the marshall the court text, the bill of rights, did not apply to the state. it pretty strong case to show that leadi

what did browns say to him to convince him not to get on the plane. >> i think jimmy had a lot to do with this. owners meeting and he didn't do that. obviously, they talked to hue and they liked him and didn't want to see him get away. i actually believed if he would have left and went somewhere else and interviewed with someone else they would have probably locked him up. he wasn't going to take the chance and brought him in and obviously, said the right words. hue is here and next cleveland browns next head coach. >> tony: i think hue jackson was wise. for a guy who got a raw deal in oakland he was wise to know the offer in hand is more valuable than going to new york and having that fall through and browns moved on and you are 50 and don't have the shot again. he wanted the shot badly. >> this is good for us, obviously he's had a little experience and we say failed, i don't think he failed. the guy went 8-8 as a head football coach. >> romona: i'll take it. >> we all would take that. handle the press. that was one of the things that, you know, he left. he didn't do such a good job

to have a pet or have attachment to. why were you talking to your daughter. why shouldn't it be you talking to daughter instead of your dolls. she needs to know to be there and not break down and fall apart to hear it and if it's not toxic and terrible to have strong feelings about another person and express them. if if they are things that are happy for their kids to talk to. my kid likes to ask siri things that she can't quite answer. >> default to marry me and i just want to be friends. >> it is my feeling about this that comes from really this is where we live in our relationship. but it's now in the smartest way is coming to convince us that these state relationships are the way to go and just so happened it's a big month for the marketing of the relationships and i want to start a conversation of that and be part of the conversation. >> the pre- christmas conversation. >> this is the part for your conversation. remember like i said before because of the microphone situation and the cameras, we can't have you asked questions from your seat so if you coul

to do everything that they can to help. we are on the ground and is and terrific and has been meeting with thecan community to make recommendations on what can be done and in terms of the federal response. right now the president has done more than the governor. i am not worried about that. >> wife follow the matching fund f approach with thes distrust of the state government to says they will wil authorize expenditures to match? >> i hope he will call the senate republican leader and the speaker to indicate this needs to be done.he l just to announce themil $600 billion or a newew surplus. they have the resources if they have the will. for the families of flint this is as much of the national crisis as a hurricane or a tornado. to match the state's actionsder but not replace the state's actions. toth unfortunately they have not matched that to believe that is significantly less than f necessary and to come to ask for resources from the federal government. in the state of michigan has primary responsibility it is clear to e

this is a way to make the well-to-do even more well-to-do. a side effect of this uneven distribution of money is painfully apparent to anyone who shops at a grocery store. over the past 15 years the price of white bread has increased by over 50% while the price of eggs has more than doubled. the cost of housing has also appreciated significantly in many areas. when adjusting for inflation the price of housing in san francisco has increased by 50% over just 25 years. real household income for regular americans has declined 10% over the past 15 years. higher rent and higher grocery bills cause lower income workers to incur more loans and credit card debt which involve far higher interest rates than what the banks and wall street are currently paying. these low income workers do not get the luxury of receiving the fed's newly created money first, nor do they have the luxury of receiving the near zero interest rates at the well-to-do. as a result one thing is for certain, the feds price control on interest rates acts as a hidden tax on the less w

so we'll look forward to that. chief, to you. the question is how does -- recently james comey, head of the fbi, made a statement that seemed to endorse something that's been called the ferguson effect. that is, the idea that the critique of the police use of force is related to recent apparent spikes in violent crime. and he described it this way. he said, each incident that involves real or perceived police misconduct drives one line this way. each time an officer is attacked in a line of duty, it drives the line -- the other line this way. i actually feel the lines continuing to arc away from each other incident by incident, video by video, more and more quickly just as those lines are arcing away from each other and maybe because they are arcing away, we have a crisis of violent crime in some of our most vulnerable communities across the country. what's your reaction to that, and what's your thought about this so-called ferguson account? >> i sat in a meeting yesterday and heard the director give that very same speech. and th
