, by design, underfunded education programs in these states. in west virginia, in oklahoma. you look at arizona. look at the places where for a dozen years there was this -- there was this political ideology that you didn't have to invest in something as essential as a public school, that you would just underfund it, you'd have 40 kids in a classroom, what could go wrong, and you've had teachers who have worked within the system, they wrote letters, they invited legislators to come and visit their schools and see the impact of this dismal funding, and they were ignored. and so there's a tipping point. there's a point where people say enough is enough. you know, we need to make some noise. we need to make everybody see what's happening to our students because we feel like we're going to be leaving a profession that we love and no one is going to be there to take our place. >> when you say underfunded by design, why would there be such a design? what do people who think that underfunding the public school system, what do they think gets achieved

underfunding is a serious issue. there are concerns that i hope our panelists will touch on today that and challenges to the census and future ones in addition to the underfunding. public concerns about information security and privacy as we learned last week and declining response rates and information that explosion and rapidly changing technologies, different linkage requirements for a diverse population, complex living maintenance and finally a mobile population. this is the first census that will have an online option. finally there is in the census the inclusion of a question on citizenship status and what that could do for the response rate. i hope our panelists talk on these issues today. let me say a word about each one of them. they speak for five or seven minutes and then will have an open conversation. john thompson will speak first as executive director of the executive council on federal statistics. he introduced the directors blog which i read whenever it appears. he was formally president of an orc at

we talk about the pensions all the time being underfunded. what happens when push comes to shove? what happened here in harvey, the state finally said, listen, we have to fund these pensions, so we have to lay off police and firefighters. essentially, half the police force, half the folks that fight fires in this town. how did they get to that point? they didn't fund the pensions for 10 years. why was that? some people say it was mismanagement. take a look at this. this is just a couple of examples. a check for $12,000, the city spent, very economically troubled city, spent on hair and makeup and spa treatments. the water fund, that people paid in for the water that service they get, they found that their disbursements included $1500 worth of jewelry. multiple trips to kohl's department store. how could that be? i asked an alderman in this town that very question. >> mismanagement on every level from nepotism, cronyism, patronage, mismanagement of funds. misapplication of funds. i honestly believe a certain degree of theft of government fund. it's a corrupt city at its best. if th

and pandemic surveillance and things like that has been woefully underfunded. under republican administrations, democratic administrations, the ebola supplemental after the midterms in 2014 was one of these bills that pass really quick and republicans, the ones who came together to do it made sure it was not a christmas tree bill like something everybody hangs their favorite amendments on but there was one earmark offered by tom harkin, then outgoing senator from iowa who put a lot of money into the ebola supplemental to build a public health capacity inversions of the cdc and a lot of other countries. will does congress do anything about it? of the democratic congress do anything about it? the impetus, the hardest vote in politics, spending on prevention even if it's only a fraction of what we spend on coverage is more difficult than spending to solve the disaster. i think i will stop and answer any questions later. thank you for coming. really appreciate it. [applause] >> you are watching booktv on c-span2 with top nonfiction books and authors every weekend.

and this is the result of a decade of underfunding public schools.se hard working educators in 11 years, zero raises and we've done everything we were supposed to do. we showed up. we pulled out of our own pockets to give our kids things that they weren't funded for, and now enough is enough. and now we want the legislature to do its job. >> just a couple of weeks ago we covered the teacher strikes in west virginia, now it's oklahoma and kentucky. to your point this isn't a new issue, so why now? if it were as bad as we're hearing, why not take action sooner? >> you know, i think you get to this point and it's a tipping point. we're at a moment right now where we've always been good citizens, we know how a bill becomes a law. we call our legislators, we invite them into schools and we've been inviting legislators pane governor ofs in some of the most underfunded states to come in and see the results of a decade of neglecting our public schools and they pretty much said, yeah, keep up the good work and keep filling in the hole that we dug for public e

running a full test that they didn't have the funds to run into other cities -- to other areas, underfunding is a serious issue. there are other concerns i hope our panelists will touch on today the president challenges to the senses and feature was. there are public concerns about the information security and privacy as we learned last week. declining response rates and information next ocean and rapidly changing technologies. different language requirements with the diverse population. complex living arrangements and finally mobile population. this is the first census that will have an online auction. finally, there is the inclusion of the question on citizenship data is and what it could do to the response rate. i hope our panelists can touch on some of these issues today. let me say a word about each one of them. they'll each speak for five to 10 minutes and then have an open conversation. john thompson will speak first as executive director for the council of professional associations on federal statistics and more important for this panel, that way for a director of the census where he

the census bureau asked for in the amount they receive, 2012 through 2017, the census bureau was underfunded by $200 million. this forced the census bureau to make a number of decisions. they had to do for some operations. you just heard they had to reduce three tests to one, which was a function of this. they also had to defer, this is very important. we can talk about this later. they had to defer committees on advertising in partnership program, which is essentially how they achieve accuracy in the census. i think the good news is that the census bureau and their athletic 18 budget did receive more money of over a billion dollars more. this really indicates bipartisan support i believe for the census bureau and will help them tremendously to overcome difficulties that might be imposed on them this fall when there will undoubtedly be a continuing resolution. so it was a very, very good move for the census are still needs a lot more money. so finally, let me conclude by noting that recently the census commerce secretary roth decided to get a citizenship question to the census. i am five oth

for better equipment and more staff the public sector in this west african country is completely underfunded d.w. got a look at what that means and one of the country's largest hospitals. this child was diagnosed with malaria but his high fever won't go away. he's been in the hospital for two weeks and now his mother has run out of money for medicine. i don't have the funds so i went to a private clinic but i soon run out of money and we had to leave by this. without money they can't do anything that's what they tell you is. the only way i can buy medicine because if someone gives me money as a gift. as you put i haven't eaten anything since this morning and now i'm going to know mother's decision if. i do is son rafael needs to see a specialist but the staff it's two biggest hospital is on strike only emergency treatment is available. david stasi is one of the strike leaders and has already been there rested twice as a result the doctor says he has no choice he refuses to support a health care policy that he says is deplorable. a pyramid we've been trained in a profession that meant to cure

taking them to the border to clear brush and sit in guard towers when in reality, congress has underfundedorder police and they're 1900 jobs short -- >> neil: let's give josh a chance here. i suspect he sees the mission differently. >> all of this sounds like a great argument for a barreder wall, right? that's what president trump has proposed all along. we could have been saved all of the drama here if governor brown if he said yes to the initial request. sounds like he's doing exactly what it was asked of him initially. yet we went through this round of i won't do it, i will and he had a revolt in southern california saying no, governor, we do have a problem here. so here we are, you know, after a couple of weeks of debate doing what the president asked in the first place. >> jon: and you have san diego county, isaac. the county that butts up against the mexico border saying that they don't want any part of california's sanctuary state law. >> look, the municipality has the opportunity to say what they want to. there's a question of double taxation here. should we be paying federal taxes

it's just seriously underfunded. really, my question, if you can carry it back to the director is why is this not a priority? these are our children. for the sfmta and, you know, i would like to know why this has been continuously underfunded, underprioritized by the sfmta when, really, our children are walking in front of 2,000-on the vehicles, and we can provide crossing guards. we're obviously not providing adequate wages. if we need to raise wages to get people to do this, we need to do so. i want to commend you on your work. that was an excellent presentation. i hope the director will take to heart this issue and make it a higher priority. >> thank you. i will bring that back. >> commissioner fewer? >> yes, thank you. thank you for this presentation. i also am concerned that actually the current budget for crossing guards is not going to meet the challenges to hire them and retain them. i think that under the next step, it says lastly ongoing efforts to improve hiring processes and retention will continue to fin

underfunding is a serious issue. there are other hearings that present challenges to this one. there are public concerns about information security and privacy as we learned last week. declining response rates and information explosion and rapidly changing technologies. different language requirements. complex living arrangements and finally, a mobile population. this is the first census that will have an online option. funlly, there's the inclusion of citizenship status and what that could do to response rates. i hope our panelists can touch on some of these issues today. let me just say a word about each of them. they'll speak for about five to seven minutes then we'll have an open conversation. john thompson is executive director of the counsel of professional associations on federal statistics and more pornlt for this panel, the 24th director of the census where he served from august 2013 to june 2017. he introduced the director's blog, which i read when ever it appeared. he was president of norc at the university of chicago. diane is director of the institute for verge at

the colorado education association says the state is underfunding public schools by $822 million a year. in 2017, massachusetts with about the same number of students spent roughly 7,000 more per pupil than colorado. teachers in massachusetts made $24,000 more than teachers in colorado. today's rally part of a wave of outrage from arizona to oklahoma and west virginia. >> we're going to lift our voices up but you know where we have out power, we will remember in november. >> reporter: late today, arizona's governor announced a budget deal with lawmakers including a pay raise for teachers who say they're waiting to hear details. steve patterson, nbc news, denver. >>> and now to the news that hits close to home here at nbc news and for many of our viewers, too. our colleague tom brokaw, nbc news correspondent and the former anchor of this broadcast has been accused by a former nbc news correspondent of making inappropriate sexual advances decades ago. brokaw is strongly denying the allegations in a letter he sent to colleagues and we get our report on all of it from nbc's kate snow. >> re

property tax, ask yourself a question, how did the property tax get so to begin with, it is because underfunded pension of the labor union. thanks.ller, guest: i would agree with your last statement, states did not obligations to not only union, but supporting pensions that even in the private sector. i think that this is something we need to take a look at, you point. up an interesting when we talk about high tax states, we need to take a look why.ach state and if you're living in a state that is highly dense population like and youe of new jersey, have a state where you have igher property values, properties that the people that usually er income are living in those kind of states, that doesn't mean exclusively, going to see re taxes, the services are needed, you need a different kind of service, i'm not justifying every tax hike, what i am saying is different state and unique and that sometimes property taxes are the main revenue for that particular state. you got to go state by state, that is what you need to do. by the way, 2007 and 2008, because of the state taxes that brought down it was

popular contempt and congressional disdain for the mission of the agency resulted i in its being underfunded and relegated to the position that was not commensurate in its mission. we saw this on september 11. it would be easy to preceding scenario for the immigration court to be constrained by future but i they didn't agree n its opinions. we need more resources and tools to guide the determination and the fact it hasn't been discussed much in this hearing particularly as they relate to to the continuances and in eligibility for asylum. both resources and guidance have been lacking for years. fortunately the attorney general made up of a priority and i would add to the body to continue to monitor his efforts. thank you for the opportunity to appear today and i look forward to your questions. >> good afternoon chair man, senators. thank you for the invitation to join you today. as you know, the system is simply broken. we heard a number of people all over the site of statistics but it's worth reminding ourselves and we have three injured before judges for 700,000 pending cases. on average ea

have talked about for the last five years or so is the incarceration rate fell on disenfranchised underfunded black schools police violence of course and there is no easy solution for that but i think two factors can be interesting and should be addressed which is real integration black students black students should have the same access to computers good schools and teachers as white children have and i think diversity on the police force is sweet. need african-american officers to bring in their points of view that ten years ago the u.s. elected its first african-american president there was suddenly a black president in the white house and for many this was a watershed moment filled with hope yet since then things don't seem to have gotten any better what has changed for the worse in america since then i don't think things have changed for the words necessarily but this very symbolic moment of iraq obama being elected the first african-american president of the united states was a moment of hope and the hope for change was great but the us has seen a history of racism and discrimination fo

the rent adjustment program is very underfunded, so really literally nobody's even looking at notices. nobody has any idea. bigad: leah is a managing attorney at centro legal de la raza, a tenant's rights group that's providing legal services for josephine and her family. leah: landlords know they can get away with anything. there is no systemic way that anyone's doing any enforcement. michelle bird: they know we're working with the city attorney's office. bigad: michelle bird is in charge of that enforcement as oakland's director of housing and community development. does anyone actually check if the owner or their relative ended up moving into the home? michelle: unfortunately, we have not had the ability to go out and verify that and enforce it. bigad: in fact, bird acknowledges her department's own record keeping has made it nearly impossible to determine the total number of owner move-in evictions in oakland, legitimate or fraudulent. why can't the city say how many of these evictions have been happening? michelle: we hadn't been categorizing them. bigad: bird says that will chan

get a five percent raise and kentucky teachers and the republican governor are fearful that an underfunded pension plan will collapse and oklahoma teachers are back in the classroom after striking for nine days and winning no concessions the average colorado teacher's salary is about twelve thousand dollars less than the national average arizona teacher salaries are roughly the same but they're looking for more than a pay raise emilie patton and jenny buettner are both arizona elementary school teachers welcome. i learning. you first your governor doug do see has proposed a twenty percent raise by twenty twenty and says he has no plans to meet with striking teachers or to address your other demand side to feel about that. it's just not going to cut it at this point his two thousand and twenty plan is not sustainable he has not identified what where the funding is coming from and most of his most of his twenty twenty plan is not actually put into place by the next school year so he is banking on future legislators to fund the plan we get nine percent this year five percent the following yea

strict beneficiary requirementsri more children will go hungry and then to impose i should say underfunded really it is the unfunded mandate. it cannot be done with the state bureaucracy's to receive that open line -- implementation and it is disjointed in fact the current administration has denied thousands of individual benefits with no trading programs and still without archaic it system last year a court had to appoint overseas with usda inspector general to conduct a separate investigation. in fact former usda undersecretary testified beforenv congress, new mexico is probably the most fouled up snap system in the united states imagine askingg that same department in at-bat one -- at best those that dramatically increase the length of time and at worst can kick new mexicans off of nutrition support that creates the environment in the first placek so in the state illegally terminated the group benefits even know he was exempt from those work requirements. >> your time is expired. >> i want to associate myself with the remarks of thehe colleagues that i have definitively demonstrated tha

. >> with continued underfunding, it was not a question of whether the system was going to fail. it was just a question of when. er reporter: how bad is it, the system? >> it's bad enough when you're running software that was running when john f. kennedy was president. id reporter: now, congress is considering legislation that would require the i.r.s. to cedernize its systems. the house will actually vote on that tomorrow. late this afternoon, the i.r.s. notified tax professionals that parts of its website were back up. >> glor: jan crawford, thank you very much. starbucks said today it is going to close more than 8,000 u.s. stores the afternoon of may 29 to teach 175,000 employees how to prevent racial bias. this follows protests after two black men were arrested in a philadelphia store for not making a purchase and refusing to leave. starbucks c.e.o. kevin johnson apologized, and has now met with both men. mellody hobson is a member of the starbucks board of directors, and a cbs news financial contributor. mellody, thank you for being here. you have been part of these f scussio

mentoring felt discouraged to learn and stupid when in actuality it is because of the chronic underfunding of our state pub live schools that they were not given enough resources or time to succeed. and, after 40 years it is about time that we reform prop 13 and restore over $800 million every year to our city's schools and communities. no more tax breaks for large corporations. our students deserve better than that. i urge the board to pass this resolution. thank you so much. >> clerk: thank you for your comments. next speaker, please. >> good afternoon. my name is joshua and i am a richmond district resident, student and an intern with the evolve california. i urge you to pass the schools and communities first initiative. my sister is a new special education teacher in california who hasn't start the her position yet and already told she needs to by supplies for the classroom out of her own pocket which is ridiculous considering the low salaries teachers already make. this will give students and teachers the resources they deseb. it ideserve. it is tame we invest in the students of calif

mcgovern: we have existing programs that the republicans continue to underfund. this will create a whole new bureaucracy that will not even meet anywhere near the needs of the people who could essentially be thrown off this benefit. alan: they're saying it could work during rep. mcgovern: we've done 23 hearings on snap at their request. if this was such a good idea, don't you think at least one of those hearings would have been about this? these ideas, these changes and these so-called reforms that are any ag bill, none of them were reflected in the hearings we held. i don't even know who wrote this. on the ranking democrat on the nutrition subcommittee. we didn't see this language until just a day ago. fits into the typical republican pattern when it comes to snap of trying to get the benefit. -- gut the benefit here they don't like it. and they have historically put a bull's-eye on this program and i'm sick and tired of them beating on poor people. if they get their way on this bill, millions of people will lose their benefit and some things are worth fighting

grand, transit officials say does an issue with the unmanned tolling system that handouts fines for underfunded. standing airplane seats could be about to take off. an airline company showing outstanding seats, they say they will increase the number of passengers they can put in a plane by 20%. the seats offer 20 fringes legroom compared to 30 inches you find in economy class so we asked if you would stand in the seats for an entire flight, who wants to stand up for hours and be buckled in especially in turbulence? how about laying down fully reclining? next thing they will be putting us in pods and transporting us as they do cargo. even sardines get to lie down in their tin cans. that wraps up this hour of "fox and friends first" blooge-friends first continues, see you tomorrow, goodbye. >> 100 missiles, didn't shoot one down. every single one hit its target. >> tuesday, april 17th, fox news alert. tampering with evidence, russia accused of keeping investigators off the attack site in syria. the white house is responding. >> crimes committed on my property by an illegal immigrant and he was re

not a single one of them asked us to create an untested and underfunded massive of those wh testified, liberal or conservative, asked new bureaucracy that states will not be able to implement. and not a single one of them suggested that we kick vulnerable adults off benefits when they can't find work. in fact, i recall several witnesses telling us that vulnerable adults needed more time on the program, not less. to help them get by when times are tough. my republican colleagues on this committee are contorting themselves every which way to try to support this process and this product. to rationalize and defend the indefensible. why? how could anybody in good conscience vote for this? if we actually held a hearing on what you are proposing, if you actually called local and state officials to react to what is in this nutrition title, if you actually asked the beneficiaries and anti-hunger advocates to react to this, i guarantee you this committee would get an earful. this language is so unworkable and so out of touch and quite frankly so insulting to the most vulnerable in our country.

whether the prime minister recognize these are unsustainable and commit to reversing this harmful underfund something. >> the money is, more money is being made b available to police forces in the 18, 19 year and my right honorable friend has taken action in relation to syria's strategy she has published. but i also have to say to the hop rabble lady, we don't say there's a direct correlation or calls of factor between the number of offices on the ground and the numbers of crime. and she may wave her hand at that, but those aren't my words. they're of the shadow policing minister. >> ian duncan smith. the speaker. >> my friend made reference to yesterday's debate on antisemitism. i listened to the two appalling temperatures and particularly trent north. they were deeply moving. they were both horrifying in a sense of a abuse they faced, but also uplifted in the sense of the bravery they've shown in tackling their abusers. does she not agree with me what tame out of the debate yesterday was that not only should every political party have no place for anybody who is an antisemii antisemiite,

the fact is, throughout its entire history, the cdc has been underfunded and are efforts to fund global health and pandemic valence have been woefullyunderfunded . under republican administrations, democratic administrations . the evil of supplemental that came out after the midterms in 2014 was one of these bills they really wanted to pass quickly. the parties that came together to do it made sure it was not a christmas tree bill like something everybody their favorite amendments on but there was one sort of earmark that was offered by tom harkin, the then outgoing senator from arkansas who put a lot of money into the evil of supplemental buildup public health capacity in versions of the cdc and a lot of other countries. that money is now running out . will this congress do anything about it? will the democratic congress do anything about it? the impetus for, this is the hardest vote in politics. running now on prevention, even if it's only a fraction of what you spend on recovery is a lot more difficult than sending this all thedisaster . so with that, i think i'll stop and i'll be ha

to win, and in presidential politics not so much, but if you're running for congress, if you're underfundedd to breakthrough and win. in the special elections, the democrats are getting funded. crowd sourced from all over the country. but when 435 of them are running in november, you're not going to be able to crowd source and compete as well with the 40 $0 million that the koch brother's network is going to put into the election. >> the republican party is still raising a lot of money. >> they are, but if you look at the last quarter, democrats outpaced republicans in most house and senate races across the country. they have momentum. republicans i talk to say they're meeting their target numbers in the special elections that republicans are. democrats are overperforming certainly. but republicans are hemorrhaging independent voters. that's the target group. that's where the anti-trump sentiments are kind of filtering in. i was talking to people in arizona today. not so much for the house race but the senate race in november. that's a long and divisive primary and the democrat is running r

this bill to be enough to stop what's happening today, but when they turned around and started underfundingdiately, it doesn't work that way. they are trying to make it look like we are greedy and it's all about a pay raise. the majority of teachers are here for funding. >> it's hard to believe it's not just oklahoma or kentucky. it's states all over the country now where schoolteachers, there is nothing more important than educating the young people of america. schoolteachers can't make a living doing their jobs. we haven't yet heard president trump comment on this. he comments on a lot of topics, tweets about all sorts of issues. what would you like to hear from president trump? >> i would like to hear messages of support from all levels including president trump. the lip service isn't enough. we have to see action happening. we have to see the funding back in the classrooms. my public speaking textbooks talk about going to your librarian to talk to you about this new thing called the internet and how to look up information on micro fiche. those are the things we need funded. i need new t
