to her next stop in fairbanks. c-span programming is especially valuable for alaskans but for most of us it's the only way to get to your delegation hard at work in washington. gci is proud to carry c-span for a number of reasons, especially for their emphasis on education. from lesson plans and handouts to timely teachable videos and educator conferences, the c-span classroom program offers so many resources to teachers. >> thank you for being part of it. thank you for bringing your awesome bus to fairbanks. the tour of that was incredible. i heard stories of driving up the alcan from the folks who were on the bus but it was a nice trip from what i heard. i've driven it a few times myself and it is an awesome trip and were so glad your bus came here and you're using it as a tool to bring fairbanks nationwide. >> what i appreciate about c-span, it's 40 years old, is much older than me, but what i appreciate, that's a joke by the way. what i appreciate about c-span is that is not partisan. you watch the spine that takes place, you watch your delegation talk back and forth. it's extremely informative and very educational. one of the best things

to just thank all of the voter approved dollars that come to the school district that help us to get the work that we need to get done done, and i also want to just think the private sector who has also been incredibly generous and has allowed us to do some really innovative work in our school district in last several years. so for all of you that have contributed to this budget, i'm glad we're not going to see any cuts to our weighted formula or funding that's going directly to our school sites, and that we're keeping to our promise that our students are the center. i just really appreciate that. so superintendent, thank you for your efforts in all of this. is this your first budget or is this your second budget? second budget? okay. so if there's no other comments -- oh, did you want to make a comment? >> i just wanted to say i was only here a month, but i'll take credit for last year's. >> thank you, deputy superintendent myung lee for what you did last year, and for always your hard work around this. i know that it's -- you've got an incredible team, and we really appreciate the team beca

consecutively this is not how a parliament normally functions it is not allowing us to really carry out legislative work to make good laws we are exasperated and for some of us exhausted this isn't the normal life of our parliamentarians staying by good day we're not trying to tug on the heartstrings this is not a good way of legislating. well during just one year in office and on your macro on has introduced new legislation in various fees from education to the rail sector some of the national assembly sessions have lasted far longer than usual too and all makers say that's not a good way of going forward. the u.s. congress is about to decide whether to widen the war powers of donald trump the new bill does allow the president to decide who and where to fight with critics fearing capitol hill is formally giving away its control the bill met with fierce resistance on wednesday. we've gone through seventeen years of war. you would drop this proposal will have one hundred seventy more a loaded gun in a desk drawer of the president ready for him to take it out and shoot it whatever it wants and it will put

it is something we have been trying to get our colleagues on the other side to work with us to achieve. so far unsuccessfully. i think we all agree been to enforce the laws in the country. i am hoping that the democrats this time around will realize that the best path forward is to work with us in a bipartisan way to create a new law that addresses this problem and gets us to a solution and not just a political talking point. this is a real issue with real consequences. it's a function and byproduct of an immigration system that has broken for way too long. we need a solution that specifically addresses the problem we see on the border today. and our members are in a very serious way working together to try and come up with that in hopes that those on the other side will work with us to make that happen. >> this week is the sixth month anniversary offer the president signing the tax cut law into effect. and as a result, you take a look at what the country is thinking about this, gallon lup poll this weeks shows the satisfaction with the country is at a 12-year high. i hear that in wyom

we'd be better able to address the things like the theft of intellectual property, and technology transfer, if our allies were working with us to address that outrageous behavior. but it's harder to get your allies to work with you, when you are hitting them with tariffs and the excuse is national security. let me just put a little bit of scale to this. our colleague suggested how important it is that these industries survive. i completely agree. domestic producers produce 75% of all the steel we consume. we import about 25% of it. how much of that comes from china? about 2% of the 25%. we don't import steel from china is the reality. so we do import a little bit of steel. the number one source is canada, who buys more steel from us than we buy from them. so that's our national security threat. that's why we need to hit my constituents with a tax when they choose to buy those kinds of steel that the canadians happen to specialize in and americans don't. this makes no sense at all. and finally my last point, so look we have sincerely held difference of opinions on this. why can't we vote? isn't that what the senate is here fo

it will be an opportunity for us to work with some of the other departments, particularly dcyf to figure out how to best model that and it's a way for us to support organizations that are serving people throughout the life span. the second is nutrition support for adults with disabilities. one of the things that we've been seeing -- most of our department's funding for nutrition has historically been focused on older adults and we are trying to increase some parity for younger adults with disabilities. we are also seeing an increased wait list for adults with disabilities who are under 60. we wanted to address that with this, 300,000. i also wanted to say i do have copies of the allocation plan for you if you'd like them. we can leave them with you. >> thank you. they handed it to us. >> you already have them? >> yes. >> okay. >> is this it? >> that's it. so out reach and awareness. one of the key findings in the community needs assessment kind of not surprisingly but unfortunate that people don't know how to access services for people with disabilities and older adults. so we are going

when tayyaba grows up, she wants to be a teacher, because she says children should be in school, not working. hello there. for many of usan ahead. we been able to say, let's have a barbecue, and the weather has behaved itself. it has been quite dry, this weekend illustrates that quite nicely. we've seen temperatures low to mid 20s quite widely, with the exception across the east coast, which has stayed quite cloudy. i'm sorry to rain on your parade, because it could actually rain a little later on this week. we start off warm and dry, but it's going to turn increasingly wet and windy. monday will be business as usual, though. quite a quiet story under the influence of high pressure. so, that means another great start with plenty of low cloud spilling in off the north sea to start with. the sunshine is strong at this time of year. it nibbles away at that cloud quite quickly, and we will see some distance for the sunshine coming through with one or two isolated, sharp showers. always the risk of a little more cloud again the further east you are. 16—18 degrees the high. the highest values in the sunshine of 2a degrees, 75

to thank all of our partners who have been involved with us. we draw from schol orships you've already received and through organizations that you work closely with, and so we want to thank our schol orship partners, many of who are here with us, the black college track, filipino graduates of san francisco, first track, teachers of san francisco, masonic foundation of san francisco, mission economic development agency, mission promise neighborhood, mission graduates, san francisco achievers, san francisco alliance and black school educators, san francisco foster youth fund, san francisco university state project rebound, the association of chinese teachers, and a26 valencia. these organizations reflect the love san francisco has for our youth, so we want to thank you for being a part of that. i also want to acknowledge gina frommer who is our sponsor from the san francisco education fund. she has always supported the work that we do with our young people and with principles, teachers and paraeducators, and last, i want to thank pg&e for their generous support. andrea, you did this donation on behalf of mayor lee, and so it's really important for

i'm a future sfusd parent, and i also used to work in sfusd within the high schools. i used to work at phoenix high school back in the day, was on 16th and mission. so basically, i'm here today to support the indian education p.a.c., right, and so there was a list of ten points saying these are the things that we want to see happening this upcoming school year. and i watched that video of the meeting there in january about ten different times, that section. and i took notes. so in one of them, you know, the student delegate said that the washington high school school sites council would be meeting about the washington murals, and they would be making a decision whether how they felt about it or not felt about it, but they would be convening, and that within a month or two, that you all would hear back what -- what -- i don't know, anybody know? superintendent? anyone know what happened at that school site meeting? no one knows. no one in the local native american community knows, no one in the indian -- american indian p.a.c. knows. also with the ten points, commission

for inviting me now there is a strong belief among american policymakers especially those who used to work for previous administrations that presidential summits are supposed to be the culmination of a long arduous diplomatic process rather than the beginning of it do you think this convention applies to delos trump at all i basically agree with this position i mean usually the high level summit comes at the end of the negotiation process so i'm not sure in this case it was just a decision from the president to me can some go right away or it's it was part of a broader strategy of the administration but certainly this is a breakthrough in the relations between the united states and north korea so it's certainly unconventional in diplomatic practices but it can be. a very important opportunity for both countries and for the whole region that you mentioned a possibility that this could be part of a broader strategy on the part of the trumpet ministration and from what we understand there have been some preliminary torts but hardly over technical nature the negotiators most likely simply didn

she used to work hundreds of miles away from her family, in the home of a judge and his wife in the capitalures of her taken in late 2016 caused outrage on social media. tayyaba is currently being looked after at a children's home run by a charity. sitting with her best friend and her carers, she agreed to talk to us. the couple employing her have denied mistreating tayyaba. but she told me she was beaten by the wife just for losing a broom. the children here are divided into houses, each with a specific carer, or mother, to look after them. azmat has been helping tayya ba recover from her ordeal. tayyaba's best friend in the home is another former child maid, fatimah. slightly older and more confident, she has taken tayyaba under her wing. tayyaba grew up in a small village about 200 miles south of islamabad. i went to meet her father to find out why the ten—year—old had to leave home to go and work for a judge and his wife. children aren't legally allowed to work in most businesses in pakistan, but despite calls from campaigners, in the vast majority of the country there is no ban on them

used differently, isn't it? she said the first amendment has w been weaponized to use against regular working people. and that's what happened in the janus decision. there is more of this to come. we can see this. this is what brings us together this morning. and i'm congressman cartwright and i represent northeast pennsylvania where labor rights are time honored and traditional values. it is in northeastern pennsylvania that john mitchell gathered and clarence darrow helped to establish the fair labor standards act, 40-hour work week, weekends, getting children out of the mines, we understand the importance of labor rights in northeastern pennsylvania and i'm proud to be here. what we are doing here is announcing and i'm announcing introduction in the house by the public service freedom to negotiate act, this is a bill that strengthens the rights of public employees to stand together as one and negotiate with their employer. it protects the rights of employees collectively to bargain for decent pay and fair workplaces. of course we have several democratic co-sponsors on this bill. but we reach out an

to work. you see that today, if you hire a veteran, the u.s. government will reward you to that effect as well. let usto perform these even more earnestly than when the war was on. idea, of course, that you are doing this out of the goodness of your heart rather then just hiring good employees. , there is nonote veterans organization .epresenting veterans in 1980 the american legion would be at the forefront of pushing -- 1918. the american legion would be at the forefront of pushing for veteran's rights. even though there was racism in classes and within the ranks, the american legion is at the forefront of drawing attention to what we would call ptsd today. so, they do kind of raise the --ue of disability rights with a nationalist tinge, admittedly. however, shy away from equating veteran disabilities with civilian disabilities because they believe that would undermine the value of the veterans sacrifice. so it is a limited application of disability rights. , it does get the idea of disability rights into the mainstream even if it is in a modified way. with that in mind, two things. memorial's age a

to drop in a question and make this is a good use of a.i. you're going to hear probably a lot about a.i., machine learning capabilities. in our experience, i think being able to have a workench area where a bunch of operators are used to working and being able to drop in information and have machine learning algorithms kick back whatever it knows about that data set quickly in realtime has been a huge asset to our hunt teams and our operations teams. and i think it's a key component of thinking about the problem set as the usability factor and not forcing users to pivot to multiple tool sets but having a front-end workbench solution that allows them to easily access that information in a way that they're comfortable doing it. >> just on the automation piece, i think the automation piece is important for a few things. one is you need to be able to respond at machine speed. so anything that you can automate to remove the human from the loop will accelerate your ability to respond. but the second piece that we see is there's just a high turnover in cti staff. you know, just on our team, you know, the turnover rate is so high because the skill set is so in demand. so, you kn
