it is a speech to which the senior senator from utah is responding. i would note that in the course of that speech i described an explicit promise the majority leader had made to me and to all 53 republican senators. neither the majority leader nor the senator from utah nor the senator from tennessee has disputed that the majority leader in front of every republican senator made that promise looking me in the eyes, namely that there was no deal on the export-import bank that its proponents could offer it in the regular order and there would be no special preferences whatsoever. we saw on friday that promise was false. in particular for the amendment on the export-import bank, first of all, it was not offered by its proponents, it was called up by the majority leader. very few of us get our amendments called up by the majority leader because he has priority of recognition. he can edge out any other amendment in this chamber. secondly the majority leader followed that by filling the tree. a procedural mechanism that he had often decried when the former

topaz or the central utah relocation center was utah's fifth largest city, vanport was oregon's second. loss olmos was either second or third in new mexico. so it's this gigantic wartime effort mostly for cities that have subsequently disappeared or become something else. i was interested in the range of people who were brought live in these confined spaces, because we might kind of imagine pretty naturally, given the racial anxieties and the racial anxiety of the time, that preponderances thises a segregation situation for african-americans. but about what well to do celebrated scientists frommingom universities and laboratories across the u.s. and across the world? the first community in i study was the klammath indian reservation, analysis southern oregon, bus i started to realize that the more i looked at at the free communities i was examining -- three communities i was examining the more the expertise and the model for these communities had come from the indian bureau. so now one was re-inventing the wheel in world war ii. the government has persistent concerns and sometimes they

the economy is going along very helpfully in utah -- very healthily in utah. we balance our budget and live within our means. we do not have unnecessary debt. that is not the model we see in washington d.c., and it creates significant angst in the marketplace with the lack of pretty stability and the lack of certainty that is causing a lot of capital and entrepreneurs to sit on the sidelines, which means the economy is more sluggish than it needs to be. we have an $18 trillion debt that is growing. right now we have a very low interest rate. we have another significant problem when it comes to balancing the budget. the entitlement programs whether it be social security, medicaid, or medicare, are the biggest and most troublesome parts of the economy as we look at the federal government. we have got to have fiscal responsibility and it is interesting to note, from a state perspective -- and i hearken to the words of james madison -- he said do not worry about the centralized federal government because the powers given to them by the constitution are few and def

in utah, we have a five-year ongoing plan. it is hard to maintain roads if you do not know where the resources are coming from or whether they will be here beyond the next six months. last but not least, one of the significant challenges we have as well as a great opportunity is to be the leader of our national guards. as governors, we are the commanders in chief of our national guard, we take that job very seriously. it is ongoing as we have emergencies that occur from time to time with our respective states to make sure you have a national guard that is able to perform, as well as for national defense. we are becoming a significant part of the active military when it comes to our national defense. our national guard readiness is important to us. we appreciate the fact that there has been significant work with the national defense authorization act to in fact make sure funds continue to flow to our national guard, to protecting from having apache helicopters taken away from states and given to the army -- not a good policy. w
