>> guest: they can. they key here is that in order for any objection to even be considered it has the same objection has to be raised by at least one house member and at least one senator. as of last night we did not know of any senators were going to join ms. jackson lee and a handful of other house members who want to raise these objections but we also do know that members have been told to stay close, if they were not planning on leaving town this weekend, that they should stay close because there may yet be votes today. what happens is if there is a proper objection raised, i.e., something that is supported by both a house member at a senator, then the two houses of congress are supposed to meet separately to rule on these objections. the last time that has happened which was in 2005, actually there was stephanie tubbs jones from cleveland, barbara boxer, california, raise an objection about ohio's electoral votes. there was a pause in action during the ceremonial joint session. the two houses of congress met. they voted down the objection and then they resumed their ceremonies. so that is the way any objection would be handled. it seems highly unlikely, given especially the republicans controlled both the house and the senate, that any such objections would be sustained in separate votes by the republican house and the republican senate. >> host: how unusual is in this circumstance? it seems normally this would probably just a matter of formality, right? most americans probably didn't even realize the role of congress in certifying the presidency. >> guest: that's exactly right. the last time this happened which was four years ago more or less today, the congressional record noted that the entire session took just 23 minutes. it's interesting for super congress nerds come it can be interesting. it's always an interesting situation when the vice president who is charged with presiding over the ceremony is a player in the election. al gore famously was the vice president running to succeed bill clinton and lost the most contested election in the last century and had to preside over essentially his formal loss of the election in which there were several of these objections that were raised. no senators went along their al gore had to make several rulings from the chair, sort of gambling to have people who wanted to make speeches and say that's not appropriate. those are the exceptions. by the way, another bit of trivia, the vice president doesn't have to do this. if he feels aggrieved, hubert humphrey was the vice president in only 1969 who just lost the presidency to richard nixon and he declined to take the job so the job then fell to the president pro tem of the senate. >> host: what happens next? does this go to the president for his signature like a bill? what's the procedure and how is this finalize? >> guest: it does not. there are tally clerks and after the read from alabama down to wyoming, the votes are tallied up. there are sort of ceremonial tally keepers from the house and the senate who keep the count. at the end of the count is announced at the magic words are the vice president says, where are those magic words? the magic word or essentially says that he's got, i hereby rule, i had it here. hold on just a second because this is what you want -- this announcement shall be deemed sufficient declaration of the persons elected president and vice president. and that's it. the vice president, you know, the winners have one and they are the president-elect and vice president-elect. there is no such presidential signature. there is no indwelling of the bill. there's none of the normal part of major stuff. it's a unique system. >> host: david hawkings, senior editor for roll call, thank you for joining us. >> guest: take care. >> live coverage of that joint session of congress when he gets underway at 1 p.m. eastern on c-span. we are here once again in the east room of the white house where first lady michelle obama is waiting in the wings to offer her final speech as the first lady of the u.s. she will be introducing this years school council of the year. year. the award goes to terri tchorzynski, i counselor at a technical school in battle creek, michigan. we expected this award ceremony to get underway just a couple of minutes, and when it does we will have live coverage on c-span2. president-elect trump is receiving a briefing today and senior intelligence officials and among the items expected to be addressed, the apparent russian hacking of the 2016th election. we spoke with a reporter who covered yesterday senate armed services committee investigating those same issues and for cyber threats. >> good morning. >> host: give us the highlights about what happened yesterday. what new was uncovered from this hearing? >> guest: well, the news today as content based about what happened on what were supposed be doing as little. that we're not when you find out until next week when the intelligence director of national intelligence has been preparing. partial release to the public. we did get to see some of the attention on party start display. they are not super happy about a lot of the climate that's been around, doubting their work. a lot of members of congress are not very happy about some of the discussion the president-elect has been saying. disparaging intelligence community. also the intelligence chiefs are singly going to have a stronger response against cyber attacks like this and that doesn't mean we can defend every cyber attack. it does mean we should be responding with cypress attacks over all that we should be think about additional sanctions against russia and also launching counter propaganda effort because so much of what the involvement of slave to the action was part of it was hacked but part of it was the spread of fake news and false information that is difficult to gauge the effect of the election but it was out there and poisoned the environment potentially not to the point of actually having effected anything the way things turned up but that is that when that sort of stuff happens and we have to be focused on that. james clapper called -- steroids as part of the result will be seeing a lot of that topic i believe once that reporters partial release to the public. congress is getting based on it next week. >> host: talk about that aspect of the, this information of propaganda war that intelligence officials, talk about beyond hacking. did they make suggestions about how to fix it beyond bringing back this information agency that you're talking about? >> guest: no. you can see you really went intelligence agency, intelligence community feeds limitations of its purview of its jurisdiction in this area. it's their job to say here's what happened, here's what we're doing, to lay out the plan and everything went into. they stop short of a time a member of the committee asked them what should we do. those are policy decisions. that's your job. so what we're going to end up seeing probably is that there's going to be a lot of focus on the topic. it's been addressed to some degree in congress, just not completely. in the defense bill that passed last month, lawmakers kind of foaddressing this whole idea of what's going on with united states ability to project its position. back in the cold war we had a stronger voice in america, i read your free europe that everybody listen to. that came up in the hearing yesterday when they said no one listens to the radio anymore. we don't do this social media online stuff as well as the russians do. russia, first of all, the state controls most of the media in russia. also it's been pretty well documented through articles there is this kind of trolling operation that comes out of that country that gets onto twitter, gets onto facebook, facebook, gets onto all social media. there were basically saying yesterday that part of this is in the dissemination of misinformation and this is a classic sort of move that rush is perfected and other countries as well. when you make people not sure exactly what's true, when you people that are spreading and passing the new stories that are not based on facts are not real and are just fake fabrication, granted russia was not the only actor doi

united states info tree, the old guard. >> established by general george washington in 1776 as the escorting guard, commander-in-chief guard carries muskets with 13-inch bayonets. ♪ >> united states army drum corp corps. >> bush the 43rd senior staff during his first term, these are moments of nostalgia, and you remember where you were and what it felt like on this day back in your day? >> i sure do, on that day i was actually waiting at 12 noon for the approval to get into the white house. my office was in the west wing, i was in charge of the president's schedule and i had to get to work, i didn't really go to any inaugural events, i was trying to get access to my office to get to my desk and prepare for the next day's work. >> how's the chaos in there on a day of transition like this? >> organized chaos. you literally have hundreds of people with assigned jobs of moving the old president out, moving the new president in, hundreds of people assign specific tasks down to the second of what is going to happen where. national park service with 18 acres, the osher's office, the general services administration that controls tha federal office building of the president, it is a choreography that is really something to behold. >> brad, it has been great to have you today, thank you. it is the clampett mobiles that give me the greatest pleasure, the two vehicles on the right-hand side of the screen and left-hand side of the screen with the big cages, those are the ones who give us the track along shots, they are really amusing to watch. out in front of the review stand now on camera 4, the first family is arriving. some crowds not as big as expected, they are turning off of eighth street now, is that what i just heard? turning onto 15th street, so they are making their way across from the white house. bringing our panel back in. john bussey. and julie. national political reporter for the associated press. memories from today. >> well, it has been an amazing day. i think the scene was really heartwarming, the speech was not as unifying as people would have liked it to have been, but everybody rose to really welcome trump and celebrate him, and the launch, there was more of that with his gracious comments personally thanking one-on-one at the table hillary clinton for coming and saying into the microphone. >> shepard: some unusual visitors on the day. >> one of the biggest donors and his wife were up on the list very close. and at the lunch, which has never happened. we will learn in a few days there were more that we didn't even know happened. >> twitter will help. >> that is exactly right, the things we will learn over the next couple of dayshave just see interesting. a memorable moment for me, i can't imagine another situation where this would ever occur with a president getting out and walking along the parade route right in front of a property that he owns, it really highlights the unique situation we are now in as a country. we will have to wait and see how it unfolds, this is day one, a lot more days to come, a lot of trump properties and businesses out there, we will see how the new president handles those business affairs. >> he has been a brand man, a marketing professional, and he has been among the best in the country. when he was down and out, which he was after a series of bankruptcies, he used the media and new york city and howard stern show to keep relevant. he weathered the highs and lows, got out of money trouble with the help of his family, foreign entities in many cases and made his way back and made a pitch to the american people he was on point when others were tone-deaf and recognized something about the public, and this man who "the new york post" once called a con man and mitt romney called a con man, now you may call him mr. president, thank you. >> another great day for american democracy, beautiful pageantry. the rest of the world watching this will have just listened to the speech, they will have heard nationalism, they heard america first, a feeling of america being cheated by the rest of the world and by trade, a description of carnage with the language the president used. i think the allies abroad and business community here worried about the trade issues with national security issues will be a little bit adjacent, perhaps alarmed, and is very important to know that for national security and growth you need support abroad and at home. we will see whether or not those relationships were beholden or hurt by that. >> talk about how the friends around the world receive this, what about our enemies? >> it depends on who you are talking about. is russia our enemy? they were until a few weeks ago. >> not to this administration. certainly is to the members of congress. vladimir putin has already said he is happy that trump won. in china, this is an opening. if the u.s. is going to retrench from emboldened trade engagement with asia, he will move in. why? because it is in the self-interest of china. >> let's listen. the review stand. listening to the review stand. oh, we don't have that. camera 1 will show you, the feed 1 will show you the trucks around the corner and will come to the front of the white house in just a few moments. a day that began with a lot of questions, first of all would the day rain out, with the people bust in be able to do the kind of disrupting they stated publicly they would hope to. the answer was they were able to shut down a few entrances, a few cars torched, a bit of violence, but they were not able to shut this process down at all and by all accounts according to metro pd, anybody who wanted to come today was able to come today. and then with the rain hold off and with the crowd show? indeed they did. smaller than years past, but that was to be expected to. a little different tone and tenor today. regular folks all over america came to washington in groups large and small, out and about last night, they spent the day along the parade route and waited to see what the new president come out of his car and agree to the folks, and the answer was of course he did right in front of trump tower. if there is a moment for me, it is the moment that is emblematic of what it is this nation is all about, that is this free and transparent transfer of power that happens with kisses on the cheek with the families on their way out and the families on their way in, two different views, one of the president leaving at one of the president coming, a the orderly and peaceful transion of the two with standard protocols in place and smiles all around. it helps sooth the soul. if you are excited, you're glad to get rid of them. if you are sad, you are sorry to see them go. this is your moment in washington, d.c., and we thank you for spending it with us. i am shepard smith in washington. your local news in many cases is next. and i will see you later. over 1,000,000 californians have gotten something that's been out of reach for far too long: health insurance. how? they enrolled through covered california. it's the health insurance marketplace where you'll find a range of plans from leading health insurance companies that offer you the best combination of quality, rates, and benefits. and, through covered california, you may get financial help to pay for coverage. to get covered, you've got to get going. open enrollment ends january 31st. visit covereca.com today. at activia, it starts inside with exceptional taste and smooth texture. and billions of our exclusive probiotic in every cup. now with an elegant new look. activia. it starts inside. dr. oz: i consider women the chief health officer of the family. another digsal responsibility sort of discussed. and i wonder if i can turn to their health. to the care givers. they're the last ones to get health. coverage for basic screening as challenge which we have to tackle. let me talk to my candidate about a big topic that comes up all the time, which is birth control. do you think it should be mandated in this country that we reimburse women for their birth control? >> i think what we have in birth control is when you have to get a prescription that's a pretty tough something to climb. i would say it should not be a prescription. it should not be done by prescription. you have women that just aren't in a position to go get a prescription. and more and more people are coming out and saying that but i am not in favor of prescription for birth control. dr. oz: what is your stand on abortion today? >> i am pro life. dr. oz: and there is a misconception that i think you would argue anyway about the views that you have on women. and this comes up a lot. why do you think there is such a discussion about that now? >> i don't know. it is very interesting because i just think, look, i have such respect for women. my mother was one of the great people i've of known in my life. i just think that somehow i have a narrative out there, you know, when you have hundreds of millions of dollars spent on you in advertising, okay, on advertising, on false advertising in many cases, but negative hit jobs, you know, i guess maybe -- dr. oz: you have said unkind things about women. do you regret those? >> it depends what you're talking about. when i'm having fun, when i was never going to be a politician i decided a year and a half ago let's do it totraighten out country because the country is a mess but before that had i known i was going to be a politicianhoward stern is a friend of mine. i wouldn't have done his show. we have fun. we have fun. a lot of people understand that. we have fun. so we'll talk about women. we'll talk about men. we'll talk about everything and we're all having a good time. now if i ever thought i was running for president i wouldn't have done the show or given him very boring answers. we're all having fun together. >> i do think there is a bit of a false narrative on this out there, though. in that my father speaks his mind so whether it's a man or a woman if you attack him he'll attack you back. in a certain way, it would be strange if he handled women and men differently so he can be a little rough with people once in a while but it is often that they're coming at you first, almost always. >> i like to be nice to people but sometimes people aren't nice to me. dr. oz: all right. [applause] >> but i think one of the things that is the ultimate testament is his track record of employing women at the highest levels long before it was popular to do so. and he's been doing it for 30 years. i mean, i grew up seeing some of the most amazing female role models at the trump organization doing what were very much considered at the time men's jobs. they were in construction. they were in development. people weren't in those positions and he was giving them an opportunity. there are women all over the city who are testament to, who are now very successful, have companies that are incredibly well known, that rose through the ranks and learned their trades through my father. so i have a tough time with that narrative because his long track record of supporting, advocating for women and promoting women is -- speaks for itself. dr. oz: thank you very much.

[laughter] >> but i will tell you we need to have strong borders. it's just pouring in. it's less expensive than candy. you go to the store you want to buy candy you can buy heroin in some places for less. i go to new hampshire. i go to pennsylvania. i go to different places. it's the biggest -- ohio is having such a problem. we're going to have very, very strong borders and we have to stop it because it is poisoning our youth. it's worse than it's ever been. you have cities where they have overdoses 25 and 30 overdoses a week and some of them last weekend a certain city i won't mention which one 22 people died in one weekend. dr. oz: should it be a criminal problem or a medical problem? >> everything. it is every kind of a problem but certainly a criminal problem for the people that bring it in. dr. oz: may i ask a personal question? i know your brother fred and you've talked about him. >> yes. dr. oz: was an alcoholic. died at a very young age, 43. i understand you don't drink. >> i don't drink. dr. oz: how has having an addiction in your family informed or shaped your view on addiction? >> i had a great brother named fred, a very handsome guy, the life of the party. just this incredible guy. probably around college time he started drinking a little bit and then a little bit more and a little bit more. he really destroyed his life. he was so incredible. he had everything you could want. the best looking, the best personality. he had everything. smart. but i watched and he would tell me, he knew he had a problem. i was quite a bit younger than him. he would tell me, no drugs, no alcohol. but see in those days it wasn't drugs. but he would say, no drugs, no alcohol. he would really focus on the alcohol because that was very much early in the drug cycle. i don't know how drugs were in those days. dr. oz: much less. >> he would say, and then i would see he also smoked and i would say smoking. i'd tell my kids no drugs, no alcohol, no cigarettes. but the world is so competitive that if you're stuck on drugs or alcohol you're not going to be able to compete. it's going to be a disaster. it potentially can ruin your life. dr. oz: all right. so if elected you've argued that the affordable care act can no longer be in place. you want to repeal it. what can you put in its place that can ensure we don't have a lo folks who currently have coverage who would otherwise lose it? >> well, obama care as it's called is really having a hard time. okay? insurance companies are leaving on a daily basis. they can't do it. premiums are through the roof. you look at the premiums, in texas through blue cross blue shield it's gone up 60%. and 60% is going to be low compared to some of the numbers. a lot of the big numbers will be coming out before the election. they're trying to have the date moved till after the election. would be very unfair because this is election changing. it's a disaster. we have to come up, and we can come up with many different plans. in fact, plans you don't even know about will be devised because we're going to come up with plans, health care plans that will be so good and so much less expensive both for the country and for the people and so much better. with obama care, the deductible i don't know if you've seen what's gone on, it's so high that unless you die a very vicious, horrible, catastrophic death and it lasts a long time, you're not going to get to use it because it's crazy. it's so high. again, such a high barrier. we have to come up with a plan, a private plan other than for those that can't do that, we have to help them, too. dr. oz: what do we do with the folks who fall through the cracks? >> we have to go and help them through the medicaid system, help them publicly. nobody wants to see people and totally unfair, a lot of people said oh, gee that's not the thing to say. i said, well you know what? if i can't say that i'm not running for office. there are people who say everybody should have a great, wonderful, private plan and if you can't afford that, and there is a percentage, a fairly large percentage that can't afford it, then those people don't get taken care of. that's wrong. we're going to take care of that through the medicaid system. we'll take care of those people. we have no choice. we're not going to let people die on the streets. but we will have competition that will be so strong for people's business --. one thing you have to do is get rid of the monopolies. every state has a line wrapped around it. you know, they'd rather have the insurance companies and the various companies. they'd rather have one state where they're by themselves than be able to bid all over the united understand that. we have to get rid of the lines. we will have, you will have plans that you don't even know about right now. they'll get better and better and get cheaper and cheaper and it'll be a beautiful thing to see. but right now obama care is not affordable by the country and it's not affordable by people. dr. oz: you mentioned you don't want people dying in the streets. what if an undocumented immigrant collapses and needs life saving therapy? do we have a moral responsibility to help that person? >> well, under my plan the undocumented or as you would say illegal immigrant wouldn't be in the country. they only come in the country legally. [applause] dr. oz: we'll be right back. people would ask me in different countries that we traveled, what is your nationality and i would always answer hispanic. so when i got my ancestry dna results it was a shocker. i'm from all nations. it puts a hunger in your heart to want to know more. who who said men can't bake? who said that women

united it's military. it had to completely overhaul and world war ii which is completely in the hands of the united states army because they had no comment here and then they find themselves having to change things. our greatest commander-in-chief was a man with zero military -- almost zero military periods. together competing commander in chief, jefferson jabez -- jefferson davis, he was a terrible commander-in-chief. so i don't think that per se military experience is what matters, although i think it's a good thing. the factors are not not going to get it back. 1971, world war ii vets are still around and dominated congress. that is not coming back and i think we have to accept that and find other ways of doing it. i very much agree with dr. hicks. it's important not to denigrate people who have not served for whatever reason. >> i totally agree that some of the challenges we face in the military today, particularly much-needed reforms and acquisition and other areas require time and that have nothing to do with the military. some of our finest should not be a requirement. thank you. senator shaheen. >> thank you, mr. chairman. thank you to both of our panelists for your testimony and for thought: pragmatic approach to this issue because i think this is an issue that may not be helpful to be doctrinaire on. you know, i totally agree with this statement that they made that it's important for the country to have skin in the game when it comes to military engagement and conflict around the world as someone who came of age between the vietnam area i remember the day they a draft verse all volunteer army and i think some of the ideas about what would happen at the time have not proved to be accurate and we have a very professional, very well-trained military about only 1% of the population that have skin in the game and that's not healthy for the long-term future of the country. having said that, i want to pick up on the comments you've made, dr. cohen. in 2002 the "washington post" to an article where you made the point that you just made that there is no evidence that generals has a classmate national security. i wonder if you could talk more about that beyond lincoln and jefferson davis and what you've seen that makes you come to that conclusion. >> well, it is a result of a sickly be in a military historian. you know, if you look at things like the vietnam war, where there have been some very interesting books, including one by my friend, h. r. mcmaster, the joint chiefs not standing up to robert mcnamara. a reservation about the book and i've talked to them about this that it's not like they really had a better idea. we really pressed into the history that they have a different conception that would've allowed us to achieve our national object is. this is why in my book, supreme commander talk about inadequate dialogue. it has to be give and take. at the end of the day, the civilians are responsible. civilians are accountable. the military absolutely has to be heard in a duty to speak out. it can only be forced in the dialogue. we have to be very careful in our understanding of what is the nature of military expertise. when you go to work on the restraint use force to achieve political purposes. if i might, one other thing is i think it's important to have skin in the game. speaking as someone who has some skin in the game, i was in favor of the iraq war and my son went off inside a neck twice. i would have been in favor of it in exactly the same way if he hadn't made that decision entirely on his own before 9/11 to join the service. it does affect how you think about things you do to fix that you think about political leadership. it affects how you hold them accountable. but if you're a serious individual, i don't think it actually changes how carefully you weigh decisions about sending young man or young women into harms way. >> so, i think the argument that i find most persuasive that he made, dr. cohen and to some extent you also made it, dr. hicks, about why this way for a this time might be appropriate if because of your comments this secretary and not just might be a stabilizing and moderating force preventing, dangerous or illegal things from happening in the incoming administration. with that in mind, i want to ask you more about an issue senator perdue raised with respect to the interaction between the national security council under former general flynn and the department of defense and how policy make it made with that kind of interaction. so do you have any insight, either one of you, into what we might expect in who we might expect to come out on top in those kinds of debates about what policy should be. >> senator, i would be foolish to predict what is going to happen here. i think in any administration use dns servers nine plus month release cycle for congress send shaken around, if you will inevitably in every administration than there is a particularly combusted combination potentially in this set of factors we have coming in in a few weeks. i can't predict what that will look like. i do want to add to the very good comments professor cohen made that this regard to the issue of the president to choose his own staff. it's important for this secretary and also a threat to national security system to remember the national security adviser is not in the chain of command. that sounds very straightforward, but in the day-to-day actions in the station, you can become confusing of whether the adviser is a principle or not. certainly with regard to where artists come from, how they are communicated from the president, for national security adviser. i think that tension is present in many administrations will play itself out and we will see what the answer to your question is very soon. >> once again, i agree with dr. hicks. i also have no idea what this will turn into. from what i've read of the president-elect's style he likes to have lots of competing power centers competing for his ear and jockeying around and bouncing into each other. my personal preference for orderly process but again i'm not president so i don't get to make that decision. there's a lot of pushing and shoving. >> thank you, both. >> flinn versus madness and kelley. that is going to be an interesting tension. three star versus two or stars. but the three star as the -- do you want to comment on that? >> you summarized it very well. it is one of the argument in the long run for not having retired general office others in these like secretary of defense or even possibly as national security advisor because they never forget their rank. i've yet to meet a general who says please just call me bob. that's not entirely true. their rank carries with them after they retired and that's just the psychological fact that you cannot get around. >> dr. hicks, you used the term self perpetuating home of military service. that's going to occur as long as we don't have a draft. >> i don't necessarily think that's true and i don't recommend return to a draft. we don't need a military two to three times the size it is now. most people would agree with that. we are not looking to vastly grow the size of our military -- the percent of the population. he gets back to the issue of isabella curry all that recruitment within a population that's never changing. that is not help you if that is true and it goes back to some of the issues about looking for new pools of interest. that can relate to opening up for instant position to women, looking at areas like cyberskill set areas for different types of people maybe would be attracted to service and have been before. so i think there were a variety of ways to get it this issue. i don't think there's a single single solution and it's certainly not a draft. >> dr. hicks said it better than i could. dr. colin, you gave the dramatic example of treatment over macarthur. can you think in history as a country and the examples that were urged for the military has actually overcome the civilian control? maybe other countries. not a dictatorship on democracy. you mentioned the situation in israel. >> the most effect of israeli minister of defense was also the prime minister david ben-gurion who leveled out as a junior corporal and the british army over a period of three months in world war i. i think anybody who knows anything about his really military history knows he was far and away the most effective minister of defense ever had. he's the guy who built the israel defense forces. whereas conversely a few look at at -- and it has been a much more strategic decision-maker, working with the chief of staff. i think it's a pretty good example of that. >> the civilians always win. but not without occasionally sends eeriest pushing and shoving. >> may i just simply outcome i want to answer that question a different way than i'm sure you intended it. they are stating here that era have a political cause sometimes for exercising that civilian control of the military that macarthur is a good example, very popular. truman very much not popular and he returned and truman didn't seek an additional term in office and that the next amaral was eisenhower who had then and it too with her third. i think you can look at where the political for the public weight of approval of the military may be very strong. even when civil military analysts look at it and say these are good pieces, there can be a significant political cost to pay for that. >> what was the cost of president paid inspired chris o.? i think that would be less historian. my view is the lack of trust between the military and the obama senior leadership as senator sullivan's bad and particularly in the white house. i think to the extent that might have further field a sense of distance, that's a possibility but i haven't seen any reporting on that. >> senator blumenthal has arrived. [inaudible] >> thank you, mr. chairman. i want to thank the chairman and the ranking member for holding this hearing because civilian control over the department of defense and military general is really a bad rep principle, one of the founding principles of this democracy recognize from the inception of our great nation and i have deep respect for general mattis says he serves his country, having met with him over numerous series and having a data visit by sending a over my service in the united states senate. we are here today to discuss in general the issue of civilian control over the military and how that principle is served or not by his appointment. the general issue applies regardless of what we think offhand. to emphasize congress included a nonbinding section expressing the intent that the waiver was to be anti-section. quote, this act is not to be construed as approval by congress at continuing appointment to the office of secretary of defense in the future and no additional appointments of military men to that office shall be approved, end quote. i am concerned, i think many of us are that the waiver here was set a precedent. i wonder if you have advised staff as to how we can avoid setting a precedent. i don't respond to my colleagues, senator reid. the waiting period or period of time as avoiding the repetition of the precedent. but the exception, the rule and my question to you is whether there is a name by way of legislative intent in what we may have to say ab
united it's military. it had to completely overhaul and world war ii which is completely in the hands of the united states army because they had no comment here and then they find themselves having to change things. our greatest commander-in-chief was a man with zero military -- almost zero military periods. together competing commander in chief, jefferson jabez -- jefferson davis, he was a terrible commander-in-chief. so i don't think that per se military experience is what matters, although i...

united states serving in the army allowed me to contribute to the country and make it safer. i was following in the footsteps of countless of immigrants that proudly served the united states. in afghanistan i fought side by side with army brothers, we wore the same uniform, wore the u.s. flag on the same shoulder. it mattered that we were willing to die for each other and our country than where we came from. i had put my life on the line for my brothers and country and i felt really proud to be an american. i felt then for the first time that no one could question whether i am an american. it has been a great honor to serve my country. my son oscar is four year's old in preschool, my daughter samantha 8 year's old and third grade. we live outside of fort worth, texas. i feel that my family is living the american dream but i want to continue serving my country and i will soon join the army reserve. i think now about all the doors that were unlocked for me when i gained permanent resident, the ability to get the job of my dreams and live without fear. i can't imagine what it'll be like to have that taken away from me today. i also can't imagine what it is like today for my former teammates and nearly recipients that do not have legal status, of course, daca is a temporary solution and even that is at risk. i hope that you will not be my story of someone exceptional. i am who i am today because of the people who have believed in me and gave me a chance. i wanted to come here today because of the country's top line officer must be someone who understand that immigrants make our country stronger. most americans agree that it's not right to deport someone who has brought them as child and deport them to a country they might not remember. we need an attorney general who will protect the american people from those who will do us harm but show mercy with those serving, thank you again for the opportunity to it have, i look forward to answering your questions. >> thank you very much, sergeant. now, mr. -- [inaudible] >> have you pushed the red button or whatever -- color the button is. >> thank you, chairman, members of the committee. i'm here on my personal capacity. u.s. commission on civil rights was established among other things and act in clearing house to matters pertain to go denials of equal protection and voting rights and my sister and i reviewed the bills sponsored and cosponsored by senator sessions in tenure? the senate as well as his public activities and action that is are at least arguably relate today civil rights. our examination found that senator sessions approached the civil rights matter both in terms of his legislative record and his other actions consistent with mainstream textual interpretation of relevant statutory and constitutional authority as well as government precedent. consistent legally sound, intellectually honest and has an appreciation and standing of the historical bases and several aspects of senator sessions' record unfortunately have been mischaracterized and portray him of being indifferent if not hostile to civil rights. the facts emphatically show otherwise. among other things, and this is probably least consequential, senator sessions sponsored a pleather of bills, martin luther king, fight against segregation, three separate bills honoring rosa parks, a senate apology to the descendants of victims of lynching, honor participants, a bill to honor the victims of the 16th street baptist church bombing and on and on and on but senator sessions' commitment to civil right transcends and has authored or cosponsored a number of bills to protect and enhance voting rights such as federal reform act of 2001. voter fraud protection of 2009, a number of bills to protect and enhance the voting rights of service members, particularly those serving overseas. he's a strong proponent of religious liberty, having sponsored or cosponsored several bills to prevent discrimination against the religiously observant and to prevent the government from substantially burdening the free exercise of a person's religious believes -- beliefs but in our estimation is preserving right of american workers, particularly black workers. the employment and wage levels of black workers in america have been abysmal for several decades. the labor force participation rate for black males, 61.8% and falling. the unemployment for black males is nearly doubled that of white males. evidence on civil rights show that 40% of the 18 point decline is attributable to government failure or refusal to refuse existing laws and this has a cascade effect by increasing the competition within unskilled and slashing wages, particularly among black males. and this has resulted in hundreds of thousands, if not slightly over a million blacks having lost their jobs directly due to this phenomena. it has broader psychological implications as well related to incarceration and family formation rates. no one has been more committed and engaged than senator jeff sessions in protecting and enhancing the prospects of black workers in america, but for his efforts in this regard, the black workers in the future would be worse. his leadership on this matter and his leadership on the subcommittee on immigration and the national interest has been key to restore even downward trajectory for black workers in this country and i will conclude, mr. chair, by simply respectfully offering that his record on civil rights, demonstrate unwavering commitment to equal protection under the law and genuine fidelity that should make him outstanding attorney general. thank you, mr. chairman. >> i'm not sure if this is -- great. good morning, my name is amita, i'm a resident of los angeles, california born in ohio to two immigrants from india and raised in new jersey. i'm grateful to chairman grassley, ranking member and opportunity for be here today. in october hot mic tapes were released donald trump and in the wake of comments becoming public, senator sessions was quoted stating he doesn't characterize that behavior as sexual assault. millions of sexual assault survivors were triggered in the weigh of these events. i was one of those survivors. my father raised me at least once a week from age four to age 12, i endured psychological verbal and physical abuse from him for years and i also grew up my father abuse my mother, when i disclosessed the sexual abuse to my mother at age 13 she called a therapy, prosecuted threatened my mother. they told me i would be cross-examined to defense attorney. my father received five years probation and no jail time and violence continued until two years until my mother finally found support to leave him. i'm here today on behalf of rape and sexual assault survivors to urge you not to confirm senator sessions as attorney general. as publicly survivor of child sexual abuse many people have downplayed the act of violence on present day life. i live with post-traumatic stress disorder and struggle every day to be well. it directly impacts me when people minimize sexual assault. to hear senator sessions to say president-elect trump's comments do not constitute sexual assault and then consider him leading the department of justice has been incredibly worrisome. i'm unfortunately far from alone in my experience, more than 320,000 americans over age 12 are raped or sexually assaulted every year. one in four girls and one in six boys will be sexually abused before age 18. these are public health issues occurring in the private sphere. in 80% of adult sexual assault and 90% victims know and trust perpetrators. most victim of violent crime never seek healing or accountability from the state, most violent crimes remain unreported. thankfully we have improved the response of the criminal justice system with the creation of violence women act. in 1991 the police did not contact victim services for me but today thanks to vawa law enforcement is enforced to support them in breaking their silence. despite this progress, rape, sexual assault and domestic violence still happen at epidemic rate and survivors at the intersections of oppression are specially vulnerable. lgbt and particularly transgender women of color are disproportionately victimized. one in two transgender people will be raped or sexually assaulted in their lifetime. further more the majority of hate violence, homicide victims are transgender women, in fact, only 11 days until the new year two transgender women of color have been murdered. misha and transgender women from mississippi and amy, women from south dakota. we need an attorney general who is committed to improving and enforcing our lawing to ensure the most vulnerable victims of crime can come forward to seek accountability and to access healing. time and again senator sessions voting record has shown he's not the man for the job despite his claim to be a champion for victims of violent crime he has not been a friend to vulnerable survivors. while senator sessions voted in favor of the violence against women act in the bills early years when vawa was expanded to ensure lgbt immigrant and tribal population of domestic violence are protected and have access to services, senator sessions voted against the bill. we must trust the attorney general to enforce and apply our laws fairly per our constitution provisions on equal protection. we must trust the attorney general to respect the humanity of all americans and specially to be committed to seeking justice for our most vulnerable victims of crime. given his voting record on vawa and lgbt rights we have no reason to put our trust. i want to esm that member it was national task force to end sexual and domestic violence including but not limited to the national coalition against domestic violence, the national council of jewish women, the national center on violence against women in the black community, the national alliance to end sexual violence, the national coalition of antiviolence programs, break the cycle and jewish women international oppose senator sessions nomination because of the issues i am raising today. thank you. >> thank you very much, now to ms.sepic. >> good morning, members of the committee. thank you for the opportunity to it have today in support of the nomination of senator sessions as attorney general of the unitedtes. in 2003 my daughter katie, 22-year-old graduate student was brutally raped, murdered and set on fire. it is never easy to lose a child for any reason but the pain and horror of losing our daughter in this violent manner is beyond description. no suspect emerged in katie's case but katie fought for her life and underneath her fingernails were found the blood and skin of attacker and dna was abstracted and downloaded in database. i made the comment to the investigators that the man was such a monster that surely he would be arrested for another crime and we would soon know identity and he would not be able to harm another woman. that's when i learned it was not legal in new mexico or in most states to take dna at the time of felony arrest. it can only be taken after conviction. i was stunned. we don't use dna to accurately identify persons arrested for serious crime. we released him from laum custody without check of dna database with possible match to unsolved crimes. we collect fi
