various agencies within washington state sold all those twelve there is they will focus on these twelve but literally because a two point two percent of all the guns that were sold legally showed up in another investigation that we know now that's a great perspective but at the end of the day i think the anybody in that department i'm sure and anybody else would say well that's twelve guns that's well there's just too many there right six thousand and you know a five thousand some odd nothing nothing happened but twelve is too many especially if the guns coming from law enforcement if the chain goes back to harden porcelain not a good circle when the everyone. yeah there's a fridge views on this i mean does it really how i mean is melting them down going to make a difference i mean like it i mean it's true or not but i like we have sam and i had already decided that we possibly could need i don't think melting down a few extra guns is really going to change whether or not people have access to it you know now if the police took the gun from somebody and that somebody says oh you

author, randy howe has this week's dose of flag history. - washington state is unique for two reasons. it's the only green flag of the 50 states and it is also the only flag to include the image of a person on it, and obviously, that person is george washington. and it's from the portrait that was painted by gilbert stuart. he was an artist from rhode island. it's the most famous portrait of george washington, but there were brothers who were put in charge of creating the image for the flag and they went about designing it, coming up with all the different lettering. they had it perfect, except, the image they had of george washington came from a box of cough syrup, and it just wouldn't do, and in the 11th hour, they found gilbert stuart's portrait of george washington. they put it on the flag. it was accepted by the legislatures in washington, and we still have that flag today. - that's this week's flag facts. i'm eric. - here's another report in our series on first aid basics.

washington state is like many states. isking county, where seattle , the and rate was 3.6%. in ferry county, a county in northeastern washington, the unemployment rate in december was 14.1%. every state has a ferry county. i ask the question, do the people in this county with this high on a planet rate have access to broadband? the fcc says yes they do. but what made base their data -- what they base their data on is a questionnaire. they ask internet service providers if they do or if they could, without extraordinary commitment of cost, provide broadband. if they do, or if they could, they count that census block, even if only one person in that block could get broadband. if you live in ferry county and go to the fcc, and find there is not one, but two isps that could provide you broadband. if you go to the websites of these isps, they show you where they provide this service. the first one is not in ferry county, the second one is not in ferry county. peopleded to go ask some in ferry county whether they have access to broadband. here are some of their comments. they ran t

presidents in the state of washington. they would say interesting experiment. going in the right direction. different model than we have, the stuff. but typically what we hear is well, they don't have unions in arizona so they can get things done there. or we'll hear, and we do have unions in arizona but not union employees at asu. they'll say solutions have to come from the faculty. the way to change that up is to set expectations and goals for the universities that are because we live in such a privileged position. we have -- you as governors created public universities and colleges that live in privilege. we need to be given an assignment, and the assignment is we're interested in you educating the kids that come to the university and the college at the highest possible level, graduating the kids that come to the community colleges, advancing to a level of metrics, that's off the charts. meaning we need goals that are really difficult to achieve. we also need as i said in the earlier comments, to be freed from bureaucra

guess what the washington state lawmakers are saying "me too." you know what bans their records from the public employer requests, these gees the united states congress, the biggest legislature of them all. what washington state is saying is congress can keep their records under lock and key, then hey, me too. the bill passed with veto-proof majorities in the democrat controlled house and democratic controlled senate. so the democratic governor can't do anything to stop the bill, if he wants to. the story gets better. lawmakers impossible for the voters to kill the bill through a referendum. in walk state they do pretty well. according to seattle "time's" they're saying it makes government more transparent. not less. do you think that sounds a little fishy? me too. n continues... oooh. as the earl of sandwich, i dub thee... the sandwich!

. >> you know, governor, another issue came up with your counterpart from washington state, a democrat, that zinged the president a little bit on his idea that teachers should be armed and got a little testy. what did you think of that? essentially saying that wouldn't work, teachers teach, they shouldn't have to worry about arming themselves and fighting off killers. >> the way i look at it is, if he chooses to do that in washington state, that's fine. in the state of maine, i want to protect teachers and want to protect students and we're going to do what we have to do. i don't believe for a second that advertising gun-free zones is the place to go. >> neil: when you're talking about arming teachers and what the president was saying, you're not saying this applies to all teachers. just those that are interested or those that have some arms background or know a little bit about weaponry like that, that would be good for them to be armed. >> he wasn't restricting it to teachers what he said was, if you have properly trained people that work in the school system, they could in fact have

back in the united states in washington state, the american civil liberties union has filed a lawsuit on behalf of a jailed mexican immigrant who says he was beaten and put into solitary confinement for joining a hunger strike. jesus chavez flores is one of 120 immigrants detained by ice at the northwest detention center who went on a hunger strike to protest conditions at the facility which is run by the private for-profit geo group. flores was able to record a video message after he was beaten. >> they hit my friend in unit c3. they hit me and they hit another friend. when the guard comes towards me, i'm afraid to encounter him. it is a guard that when i pass him in the hall, i feel fear because he is a rough person who should not be working here in these centers because they are here to take care of us, not to beat us. just look at how he left my eye. amy: he recorded this in the jail. in the legal victory for the lgbt community, a federal appeals court has ruled a key civil rights law prohibits employers from discriminating based on sexual orientation. the case involved a gay skyd

state. george washington formally asked him to be secretary of state. he was in france at the time but he agreed. the first was in new york and then it moved to philadelphia in 1790. it was there for about 10 years until all of the federal offices moved back to washington dc. the department of state is very small but they had -- there was no home for them until 1819 when a brick structure was built flanking the white house. that was the home of the department of state for a number of years. john quincy adams was the first secretary to occupy that space. sewardt was william right after the civil war. it was determined it was too small. they needed a bigger building. that building was demolished and the building put in its place is old executive office building, but in 1875 it was the new executive office building. it remained there until it was determined once again that it was too small, mostly because of world war two and we realized we needed not only embassies but we needed more protection for american citizens and so it was determined that the foggy

>> typically what -- i'm very familiar with the uw and washington state presidents in the state of washingtonnd they would say, interesting experiment going in the right direction, different model than we have, that kind of thing, stuff going on alt-a su. typically we hear, well, they don't have unions in arizona so they can get things done here, or we'll hear -- we do have unions in ashes. don't hasn't union employees at asu. they'll say it's too top down, all slugs have to come from the faculty. you go back to what i said. a faculty centric model. the way to change that up is to set expectations and goals for the universities that are -- because we live in such a privileged position. as governors you have created public universities and colleges that police in privilege. we now need to be given an unbelievable assignment and the assignment is, we're interested in you educating the kidded that come to the university and the college at the highest possible level, graduating kids at community college, which very few graduate. advancing to a level of metrics, that's off the charts. we need goal

some states, and i can't name them all, i don't have the time, like washington state is working with us where we're putting a clinic right on the state veterans home ground so we can provide mental health services and this type of partnership i think works really well. and in terms of getting claims faster, texas and california, but many, many others working with us to get that backlog down. i think you probably know about our work with you in the veterans cemetery program. we have awarded $766 million to states to help support getting cemeteries, every single state in the country has a va cemetery. and some states, i think that there's five -- no, four states that have five veteran cemeteries. arizona, missouri, maryland and maine. we have six more currently under construction throughout the country and two states this year opened up cemeteries. new mexico and mississippi. so, the way that this works is that if you provide us the land, we will be able to provide you support to develop it, open it, and work with you. so, that's an opportunity i think for us to all plan ahead. there's

washington state is really a leader in this area. apprenticeships are an old idea where this is really an opportunity to translate them to the new labor market of the future. we can't just have a system that depends on people getting for your degrees. most people don't get for your degrees. system that provides a status and pathways to jobs beyond the very upper level professional classes. we need to do it in a way that doesn't segregate and bifurcate our population. if you look at countries like switzerland which has been very apprentice ship there is not separate from the higher education system. it is part of the higher education system. at the same time we wanted to create more opportunities for those i felt care, fields like i see outside of the traditional building trades, we don't want to create pathways that have no it to get back into the higher education system. one idea we have been talking -- this isis idea of where the federal government can label. it can create a category of a student apprentice. this is where you can r

three of them were in the state of washington and one in the state of colorado was kicked off as electors and two were threatened by the attorney general. we're defending these electors and the freedom of them to vote their conscious. whether you agree with that or not, what we thought is it's a good idea to get that resolved before it creates a constitutional crisis because if the number of people who voted their conscious in 2016 had done that in 2000, we would have had a civil war. it would have flipped the result and there would have within a huge fight forever about it. we want to resolve it one way or the other. most people think it's going to be resolved by the supreme court saying yes, you have to obey your pledge. as a scholar who has spent a year talking to everybody i can and reading everything i possibly can, i think it's almost impossible to imagine the court writing that opinion. i don't know how they do it. it implicates so many areas of federal law. would be an extraordinary thing for them to do. which means it's possible in a year, this submarine surfaces and supreme cour

the was actually at washington state democrat electors -- it was a convention in 2016. i was one of the people that helped elect an elector who said that they would adamantly -- they adamantly opposed clinton and they would fight against that if that was -- if the electoral vote was going to push it that way in the state, and i was very proud and supported them, but the main thing that i wanted to get through is that it seems like the one thing that seems to be stopping people up on the idea of one vote mattering, i guess, is that people do not seem to see that we are all in one nation. is not about city states, or that is not what we are made of. it seems like the education route seems to be the best way forward in that. you already mentioned the league of women voters, and i really feel like that is one of those places that we can re-instill the idea that we are all asizens, so i would say that far as leverage goes, this seems to be one of our best places, through education, but right now, that is not really well supported, and we need to change that. i am asking how

washington was not the original capital of the u.s. the first capital was in new york city. thomas jefferson was the first secretary of state. george washington formally asked him to be secretary of state. he was in france at the time, but agreed. the first home was in new york, and shortly afterwards it moved to philadelphia in 1790.it was there for about 10 years until all the federal offices moved to washington dc. the department of state, very there was no home permanently for them until 1819 when a brick structure was built flanking the white house on 15th street. that was the home of the department of state for a number of years in 1819. john quincy adams was the first secretary to occupy that. the last was william seward, right after the civil war. it was determined that it was too small and they needed a much bigger building. that holding was demolished. the building put in its place was the current -- the old executive office building. the state remained there for a very long time until it was determined once again it was too small, mostly because of world we ii, and we realized needed not only an disease, we needed

i want to go back to washington state. and the dupont tragedy. sound transit reported that the ptc system was online and operational at the time of the accident. could you elaborate on the latest findings regarding ptc in this instance? >> congressman larson, thank you. as you point out the investigation is ongoing. we are trying to untangle all of the aspects of that accident. there are no current updates available. for dot's proposed budget 2019 says your agency will continue to target resources, including the implementation of ptc. toas wondering how you plan meet those objectives with just half of the federal funding you received previously. nothe proposed budget does significantly change our funding for our safety programs. , there was a new look at funding for long-distance rail and amtrak. that is where the money is coming from. we will continue on the same level with the same staff and same programs. you sayglad to hear safety is the number one priority. proposal, i'm scratching my head about whether you will be able to accomplish that. n

you play governor ensley of washington state. the president add odds over that issue with florida governor rick scott, a republican, who is a supporter of the president. scott believes says that teachers should teach and educators should educate and the job of protecting schools should be left up to law enforcement. listen here. >> we're going to spend $500 million. i have two weeks in my legislative session. i'm not waiting for the federal government. we're going to invest $500 million and have a significant law enforcement presence at every public school in our state. >> now the president didn't mention again today his support for raising the minimum age for buying a rifle from 18 to 21. this is something that he tweeted about last week. but then on friday when he was at cpac, heavily sponsored by the nra, the president not mentioning it and not mentioning it again today but revealing that he did have lunch with the leadership of the nra and said this is one issue that the nra may have to swallow. listen here. >> don't worry ab

governor ainsley of washington state told the president a little less tweeting, a little more listening. >> a lot to break down. let me bring you in for a moment. the law enforcement president. they're obviously under investigation, we know that. and today we heard from the lawyer representing the deputy scott peterson. that it is unfounded. he lays out a different time line of events from what we've been hearing. >> reporter: that's right, eamonn. this is the first time we're hearing from anyone in scott peterson's camp and his attorney is offering some type of explanation for his inaction. he believed he was responding to a call for firecrackers not for gunfire. and on that initial survey when he realized he was responding to gunfire, he thought that gunfire was coming from outside the school building rather than inside. now the reason this is so important is that police protocol depicts you respond differently if gunfire is coming from outside a school building rather than inside. this could explain why another officer who responded to the scene also took up a position outside of the

the president running into opposition not only from the democratic governor of washington state, but also the republican governor of florida, rick scott saying last week he believes teachers should teach, educators should educate and law enforcement should handle security. to that end, dana, before the end of the florida legislature session, which is in about two weeks time, the florida governor said he plans to spend half billion dollars to have law enforcement at every school across the state. dana? >> dana: that's quite an exitment. what did the president have to say about getting the nra on board with his ideas? >> reporter: there are some areas where he's in agreement with the nra. the nra believes you need to enforce current law. the nra is on board of arming certain members of a faculty or staff at the school. but where they part ways is in the president's support to raise the minimum age for buying a rifle from 18 to 21. this is something he tweeted last week. he did not mention it at cpac on friday, which is heavily sponsored by the nra. he also didn't mention it when he was
