senator vitter. >> thank you, mr. chairman, and thank you both for your service. certainly, i want to express strong support for fixing this problem absolutely as soon as possible as well. i voted against the budget deal in december, and this issue was the single biggest reason why, so we need to get it fixed. and i want to express strong support for fixing anytime a way that doesn't -- fixing it in a way that doesn't increase the deficit in any way. that would be doing through two steps what the huge majority of us vowed absolutely not to do. and so that would be a failure as well. so i'm very hopeful we'll get this done. i just have one question for both of you. this provision essentially treated folks in uniform fundamentally differently and worse than federal civilian employees, all other federal civilian employees. it sort of penalized them, if you will, retroactively on this issue while the change is made for all other federal employees was prospectively only. do you think there's any justification for that different treatment? >> i think it was surprising.

. >> thank you, chairman boxer, ranking member vitter and members of the committee for the opportunity to testify today on epa's recently issued clean power plant proposal. climate change is one of the greatest challenges of our time. it already threatens human health and welfare in the economy and if left unchecked it will have devastating impacts on the united states and on the planet. the science is clear, the risks are clear and the high cost of climate inaction are clear. we must act. that's why president obama laid out a climate action plan and why on june 2 i signed the proposed clean carbon plan to cut carbon pollution, build a more resilient nation and lead the world in our global climate fight. power plants are the largest source of carbon dioxide emissions in the united states, accounting for roughly one-third of all domestic greenhouse gas emissions. while the united states has limited in place for levels of arsenic, mercury, sulfur dioxide, nitrogen oxide and particle pollution that power plants can emit, there are no limits on carbon pollution levels. epa's proposed clean

leland vitter is live from washington with details on this one. >> tough to walk those words back, kelly. a whole lot of moving parts to this story, put aside for a moment the debate and controversy over the report on alleged torture by the agency. the charge that everyone is talking about now is that members of the cia accessed computers belonging to the senate oversight committee that was preparing that original report. on top of it, as you just heard the cia director john brennan, said it wasn't going on. then he found out that it was going on, had a separate report drawn up on the issue, which showed cleared wrong doing that some say violated the constitution separation of powers. earlier this week, brennan apologized and also set up an accountability review board. now the battle lines have been drawn with the president saying he has faith in his cia director. >> it's clear from the ig report that some very poor judgment was shown in terms of how that was handled. keep in mind, though, john brennan is the person who called for the ig report and he's already stood up a task force to m

and europe who are quite pan i believed about this vitters spreading to their countries and their regions. really, though, our concern needs to stay focused on west africa where this disease is causing the biggest burden of morbidity and mortality, killing so many west africans and spreading so quickly. even if we see a few cases of ebola in the u.s. or europe, it's so unlikely that we will see any kind of spread in the same scale as we are seeing in west africa. we have a robust public health system here we have a very strong healthcare system. the chances of it causing a serious epidemic here are so small. >> we made some leaps ahead in infectious diseases after sars. the lookback on that sort of set in place a number of protocols about what would happen when we discover infectious diseases or people with them in north america. part of the issue is that that system isn't as robust in west africa. >> absolutely. we look at these countries that are affected, we see so much poverty there that the healthcare system has been devastated by decades of civil war and conflict, and the world heal

when they died, you know, pretty soon afterwards, the vitters inside them died. so, it kind of passed. >> that's how the out break passed. in this case, it's spreading to other people. the isolation doesn't really make total sense because if you think about it, we can slow down the pred but let's say you actually started having symptoms of ebola. what you might think at first is, maybe it's some other virus, maybe you ate something else last night that you shouldn't have. you might think that way. then what happens is you have to decide. am i going to the hospital or lock high school in this house or apartment and no go anywhere? very few people will choose to lock themselves up and be isolated because they might die. the fatality rate is 60 to 90%. if they go to the hospital, they might come in contact with other people. healthcare workers are getting infected. it goes against common sense to stay isolated. most people will go to seek out help, you know. >> dr. davi, thank you. >> thank you. >> citizens of quebec are raising concerns about the fallout from last

i'm leland vitter. >> i'm molly line. that convenience store, the ferguson market, now at the center of the story. police allege 18-year-old michael brown robbed it the same day an officer shot him to death. our mike tobin is at that store. mike? >> reporter: hi, molly. we moved up the straight because something developed out here. what you can see is dramatic change in tactics. in the days leading up to this, the police were nowhere to be seen, avoiding dmon 0 straighters. now you see an ad hoc demonstrations that took to the street and started marching. there are police at the front end of the march protecting them from traffic and police back here on the back end making sure cars don't come up on the scene. they're securing the intersections. if you look back behind me, there are guys with the yellow vests, also directing traffic to protect the demonstrators as they come and go. now, you think about that, strategy leading up to this was no police presence, therefore you can't have clashes with police. and still ferguso

to the vitter not -- be leaving it or not it it is a increase but then there is another big problem that we face whether from the government that those that work for more than two years. the power of the systems who don't know how to use them will also supporting biomedical och7but the lattice dylan to maintain equal of men from the g. standpoint but the more recent push a journey of the african-american group on the prosperity to look at addressing these issues so what can they do that would make a difference? to fondu the continent of africa where we have capacity building with localized impact for sustainable outcome was. so we have funded in basically allowing people on the continent how to repair those machines talk about those skills. the anesthesia issue we funded a program that was just graduated as first class those african students will go out to a minister anesthesia. surgery is great but if the it anesthesia is:you will lose the of mom. that is huge. it is something we can do and does not take a lot of people. >> but then what do they do to promote health in madison? but then

assistant attorney they will tell you the numbers mean nothing vitter use this they don't mean that much to the judge's because there are only so many cases you can bring to the federal court but where they are important is law enforcement. because agencies that us#dáÑxfód arrests that don't get the indictment or the crime but given the of broader array of crimes there is nothing you can get a basis for probable cause for arrest search and seizure. lot of concern the people ought to get focusing on the fact that surveillance is not just a matter privacy is matter of the police fail -- power and in reality with police power we will see it with surveillance as people focus on nsa but think about drones. nothing aid drone cannot search because there is every possibility to come up with the basis of it. some of those agencies will conduct raids you never result in the indictment for those crimes. it is easy to come up with dave refilled chart tusis somebody's property that is the reality of where the real power is i think this task force has done an amazing job to identify the problem so to

even democrats, mary landrieu from louisiana, joined with her republican colleague david vitter to questionh noting that the obama administration has been pursuing the strategy since 2009, since they realized there are no way they were going to pass a treaty. so you've seen in a series of international u.n. meetings, whether it started in copenhagen in 2009 and codified in cancun in 2010, they've said all along, this is what we're going to do, we're going to try to get different countries, some of the big emerging countries like china and india as well as the traditional industrialized countries to pledge what they're going to do and hold them accountable just kind of publicly and they realize that's the way they'll have to go. it's absolutely launched a whole new set of attacks on the administration. >> no international agreement, whether it's hybrid or full on formal is going to work unless it involves china and india. can you explain why china and india are so important to a climate agreement? >> absolutely. the bottom line is that greenhouse gas emissions are not only going up, they're

we want to show you this, david vitter will be our newsmakers guest this week.epublican of louisiana who is on the environment and public works committee. we asked him about the lawsuit against president obama and medicaid expansion. [video clip] >> it is a broken system. with no health care at all have better outcomes, that is a tragedy. if we can move forward fundamental reforms and that involves reform tied to it, i live look at that. the fundamental challenge in my mind is significant reform. another issue is that we are not draining additional state resources away from other .riorities the growth in health-care costs, jordan by the federal government drivenlast 40 years, has state resources away from things like higher education. would not allow any discussion of changes, expansions, further priorities like higher education. >> staying on the health-care to begin ause voted lawsuit against the executive branch over its decision to .elay the employer mandate do you think that helps the party or could be successful? >> i'm going to focus on the substance firs

just the past week, sherrod brown and david vitter worked on banks too big to fail. >> two weeks beforeon the issue of how many people in this country are disenfranchised because of drug arrests. >> by the way, i want to talk to the two republicans on the set here. that's me politely telling you to hold on one second. republicans have such a great opportunity to run against the big government and to run against big business. most americans want the banks broken up. most americans -- republicans want the banks broken up. republicans can't be seen as captive to wall street, and they're running against a woman, if she gets the nomination, that's captive to wall street. she and bill clinton are wall street. they are so intertwined. why can't we have candidates say break up the banks, don't give wall street advantages? why can't we punish corporations that take their offices overseas to avoid our taxes? they live here, they get the benefits of being here. if you want to get denmark's tax rate, then you and your family have to move to denmark because you're not allowed to live here. if you li

the work of senator vitter in our committee that i chair. and it's really sad because what we wanted to do was to take care of this problem this year, in this congress, on our watch, not kick the can down the road. that's what they chose to do. it's most unfortunate and their pay-fors just were a lot of smoke and mirrors. having said all that, we all know and you've asked me how am i going to vote, that we really can't walk away from the highway trust fund, we can't let it stagger and fall. millions of jobs and thousands of businesses depend on it. so i will be voting aye and we'll be working with senator wyden and the rest of my friends and colleagues here to make sure we get a multiyear bill as soon as possible. thank you. i yield the floor. the presiding officer: the question is on the motion to recede. the yeas and nays have been previously ordered. the clerk will call the roll. vote: the presiding officer: the senate will be in order. vote: the presiding officer: does any senator wish to vote or change their vote? if not, the ayes are 8
