the district of columbia is no exception. just the opposite. the federal city is perhaps the most important place for people to look at a microcosm of whether or not the federal government can be fissically responsible. in the 1990's, when the district of columbia was bankrupt, congress at its discretion and the direction of this committee stepped in with sweeping legislation to help the city's sinking financial ship. included in the reforms, the establishment of an independent chief financial uffers to oversee the city's finances. since the creation of this position, congress has come to rely on the d.c. c.f.o. to give an objective, unvarnished pick tchoifer city's finances. the d.c. c.f.o. is our best window into the financial stat tutt of -- status of the federal city. the bill before us today spends no federal dollars, it allows the district to use its own locally generated funds to pay its c.f.o. as much as a member of the federal government senior executive service can receive in total compensation. i know that men and women here on the f

in total, there are 18 states, plus the district of columbia, running their own s.h.o.p. exchanges, and for the record, since this is so important, i want to put these states in the record, california, colorado, connecticut, the district of columbia, not a state yet, maybe one day, hawaii, idaho, kentucky, maryland, massachusetts, minnesota, nevada, new mexico, new york, oregon, rhode island, utah, vermont, and washington state. in all parts of our country, some with republican governors, some with democratic governors, but all with people who need leadership to help them find health care that they can afford. and it makes up nearly 40% of all the nation's small employers are in these states. that's who we're focused on today. we all know that the rollout of the individual insurance website has been disappointing, to say the least, but today's hearing is focused on implementing the rollout of the s.h.o.p. exchanges, which is the focus of our committee, where we had a lot of input into how this bill was designed, to emphasize the need for a better rollout, not just for ind

i don't live in columbia heights actually i was in town for business. so, it wasn't -- when i come to washington, d.c., i stay in columbia heights, but i had -- i bike up that hill before, but, no, i had never seen any of the kids before that i know of. >> after you were struck, did they try to flee or did they just sort of hang out there as you left? >> i didn't really pay attention to that. i just kept biking as i was. i didn't turn back. i didn't look. i didn't slow down. i didn't speed up. i just kind of continued on the course. >> now, you didn't go to the hospital, did you call the police right away and, if not, why did you wait? >> no, i did not go to the hospital. i had only a minor bloody nose. few minutes later. i called the police when i got to the house that i was staying at. just a local police station. and reported what had happened. and they informed me that they would send a car to the area to check things out. >> you have heard of any other random acts of violence there? >> when i told some people about what had happened, they told me t

that has turned out to be terrible for workers in columbia. the workers are, you know, they don't pay them, they don't have any right to organize. and so i think, you know, when we look at columbia, and you're talking about doing fast track on this one, without adequate protections for workers' rights, for environments, for people's access to courts they've got a big problem here. >> the main concerns are about food safety. interlek actual property, privacy and health and domestic auto industry. there's a lot of stuff here. and privacy on the internet is a big issue with this trade agreement, which i find unbelievably hard to understand how this would infiltrate into this. but when you talk about intellectual property, now you're tapping into the heart of entrepreneurial heart of this country. >> that's our engine of growth. the entrepreneurs, the discoverers. you want to make sure that they're free to participate. obviously, some of our competitors would like to be more restrictive. the europeans and the asians, because the asians are major c

we would be looking at tariffs for exports to colombia that columbia and japan, germany, sweden, others would not have to encounter. i would go to our workers out in central illinois and say look, we have a 10% premium, but with an eight to 10% premium be? we have to find a way to be more efficient or we will lose a sale. we just cannot find ourselves in that position. it is critical to us. most of our big equipment from sole-source is u.s.. we need to access to those markets are the tpp example is a great one because i'm convinced, michael, that most of those countries will sign an agreement with or without us. at some point down the road, we will potentially be looking in on that. i'm really worried about that as an exporter and employer of some 50,000 people in the united states and what happens to our workers and opportunities as a result of that. of course he asked five cars are going all over the world and ringing incidents from germany, how does that prospect of those agreements affect? >> we still our if you look at relationship between united states and europe, we still pay imp
