those rural areas have libraries and they need to be able to access the internet. as vermont's state librarian martha reed told me all americans, including the most disenfranchised citizens, those with no way to access the internet without the library, need to be able to use internet resources on equal footing. chairman pai would also hear from independent content creators whose voices are tooen not heard on traditional media. actor, writer producer, ruth told me in the unprecedented world of open, non-discriminatory or in the unprecedented world of an open, non-discriminatory internet no longer did low budgets and no connections mean that there is no way in. never again could we be disregarded by anyone who essentially asked, who are you to have your story be told? of course the answer, if you have net neutrality, you are whoever wants to tell you a story. these are the voices being ignored. they are the people the americans are going to stand to lose the most. the chairman's misguided plan. now this is not about partisanship. republicans and democrats call for an open interne

traveling, you see the north into new york, vermont, and new hampshire, that snow, that's 7:30 this morning, it's going to be snowing for much of the day through this area, spreading into the boston area. if you're heading into new england, you're going to run into some trouble, especially as things really get busy on the roads at 6:00 this evening. that snow will continue into the late night hours. if you try to delay, improving conditions in boston, but still coming down in vermont and new hampshire and into maine. rainy tomorrow want shouldn't be too bad traveling the roomptdad. a steady rain tomorrow morning, north it and west, into the ohio valley. and that is going to meet colder air in the ohio valley. while it starts as rain on saturday morning, look at the snow that develops by saturday afternoon. in the ohio valley, northeast ohio, northwestern pennsylvania, back into new york and back into new england during saturday evening. we're looking at rain in our area. as colder air sweeps in behind the system, snow in the ohio valley will try to reach our area. if you're traveling across pennsylvania, into maryland, you might run into snow. and i a f

vermont , new york, new hampshire, engulfed in snow. we also have seeing snow i08 on north, but you will find modest accumulation in those areas, poconos specially could stand to see maybe one, 2 inches every snow before the day is said and done, some apparently coming down. see right on the tail end here , right along the pa turnpike essentially, you start to see that change- overtake place. where the temperature even before the sun has come up, it is still well into the 40's, especially atlantic sit, at least at these observations. so you are in the territory where the snow will fall, pocono region, but here in philly, at 43 degrees, just too warm for it to be anything other than couple of spotty rain showers, and that, too, is important to note. we're not talking about drenching wash out of any casino here. let alone even up in the mountains seeing some snow. it is relatively modest accumulation over the span of the day. our high, flirts with 50, down the shore here today. and you will see couple of rain showers there, as well. the bigger story, though, meisha, that's all about the cold that settles in. by tomorrow, we are going to

areas of reporting mental health records. but some states, even those represented by members of our committee such as vermont, hawaii and louisiana continue to lag behind. these states reported fewer records to nicks on a per capita basis than most of the other states. and more improvement can be made in order in other areas such as reporting domestic violence. it is clear that this is a systemic problem. and that there are many thousands of abusers who are not in the system but absolutely should be in the system. states should also report to ensure that all records are complete and up-to-date. all of us wish that the recent tragedies in texas and nevada could have been avoided. nothing we do today or in the weeks to come will restore the lives of those lost in those two cities. we owe it to the victims of the shootings to seriously consider what we should do as policymakers. as legislators, one of the most powerful tools that we possess is legislation. the problem with such a big hammer however, is that often everything looks like a nail. we must have this -- the supreme court has made it very clear that laws that concern the se
