the same number in there from as in california and also significant populations of almost 3,000 in virginia and maryland. what they're doing is going to places where there's already established numbers of latin-americans. the numbers i'm sure are going to increase next year, and the reason is that no one is being sent home so our country has yet to establish an effective deterrent for more people to come here illegally through south texas. according to news reports, there have been roughly 280 of those 200,000 new arrivals who have been deported from the country. and that's about 280 people associated as a family unit who were deported from arrest teasa, that's a minuscule number of deportati deportations to the side of the influx. the major problem that are -- is education. given what the sum total of this cost is going to be, i took a look at what some of the states that are affected have estimated for the cost of providing an education to just -- and to all of the kids who have arrived in this inflaux, teinflaux--influx elson mates that it's going to be spending about $9,500 per child an

when virginia was elected to the union, he does what he can to represent this district. they adopt martin q. powell in manchester, wisconsin. he comes to the house chamber. we don't know about powell. he was 14 years old. we know his family came over and we heard reports that he was the first african-american page. they ripped and teased him before i came onboard. he served for about a year. he's the only instance of a page serving in the house in the 1800s that we know of. sort sortly after he leaves, the reconstruction era ends and snim crow were going to place and in washington, d.c. and the appointment of after write can mericans to 1256 positions subsides after that. by the end of the 1800s, there are no african-americans serving in the house. >> one of the great things is although we don't have images and little information about what his experience was, we found it in the records of the treat ooens man bank. he's depoz silling it in his account. i think it's fascinating and gripping because it's such an example of something set up in the reconstruction. and before

he became a political carpetbagger when virginia was readmitted to the union. things he does is appoints an african-american page. and powell comes into the house chamber. we know a lot a lot about powell. he was 14. we do not have any pictures of him. but we found him in census records. we know his family was from manchester. we have press reports are saying that he was the first african-american page, including one report that said that his first day on the job the pages teased him like they did every other page, but he did his job. he served for a year. he is the only instance of an african-american page serving in the 1800's. shortly after he leaves, the reconstruction era ends. and you have jim crow laws go into place in the house, in washington, d.c. and th appointment of african-americanes to staff physician subsides. just like the story of african-american members. by the end of the 1800's, we go through a long p eriod where there is no african-american serving in the house of representatives. >> one of my favorite thing about alfred powell, al though w

., maryland, and virginia. the turn out in democratic counties in maryland and baltimore city and montgomery county and prince george was way down from four years ago, not from the presidential election, and senator warner had a much closer race than anticipated again because of the key factors was the drop in democratic turn out over the river here in fairfax, and other areas like that. third is the progressives did pretty well in referendum but did not do good in the election. four red states pass minimum wage increases, amendments lost, background checks won in washington state, but there's no connection between those referendum victories and the election. the last point is in a way, bad news for each party, which is the continued huge disconnect between midterm turnouts and presidential election turnouts. this is complicated news for the republicans because it says they cannot count on the victory to mean a victory in the next presidential election, but i think it's complicated news for democrats because if

the founders presumably believe the statement adapted by thomas jefferson from the virginia declaration of rights, edited and endorsed by those who founded this republic, quote, we hold these truths to be self-evident. that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their creator with certain inailable rights that among these are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. the most famous single sentence ever written in the western hemisphere. or he says, perhaps the second most famous right after coke is it. for those under 30, a more recognizable choice might be "just do it." or for the 40 somethings, "may the force be with you." you get the idea. and yet as he acknowledges what seemed self-evident to mr. jefferson would appear either false or meaningless and superstitious to the great men who shape our political imagination, men like air stot l, marks. we need not go so far back to find despairagement. we could add wilson and roosevelt to the list of those who argued for liberation from constitutional piety in favor of a reevaluation of the constitution. natural rights and i

three-fourths of the entire slave population since this period, emancipation has followed in maryland, west virginia, missouri and the district of columbia and is being rapidly stewed in -- and ten. thus terminating the holding of property in man everywhere under the american flag. that all the vast territories have been consecrated to freedom and free labor. that all fugitive slave laws have been repealed, so the slave hunting is in an end in all the free states. that no rebel state can be admitted to the union except on the basis of complete emancipation that national justice refused under every other administration has been done to the republicans of haiti and liberia by the full recognition of their independence. that is -- and also that ambassadors or ministers from those countries would be admitted to the diplomatic circle here in washington. that an equitable treaty has been made with great britain for the effectual suppression of the foreign slave trade. united states passed laws outlawing the slave trade but had not enforced those laws the british tried to enforce those laws and whenever a

i first was in afghanistan in april of 2006 as governor visiting my virginia guardsmen and women serving there. and i think it was the belief of a lot of the american, both diplomatic and military leadership on the ground at that point that iraq was taking our attention away. the achievements gained in afghanistan as a result of effort, military effort have been significant life expectancy advances, kids in schools. it's fragile under this new government, the formation of the new government is a huge tribute to your boss and to american diplomatic effort. but it's fragile. and while i am a supporter of an authorization of military action against isil in iraq and syria, i'm mindful of the fact we have turned our attention to one theater and not paid the attention to the other that was necessary. and the afghan situation is hopeful enough, fragile enough if we turn our attention to the events in the newspaper every day. we run the risk of gains in the huge sacrifice. >> senator, what you just said resinates in a powerful way and resinates because you said it in this room. a decade ago in t

they just wanted to protect their profits in west virginia. and when the initiative passed, they came to maryland and filed a license application to try to open a casino in maryland. so, i think it's really important, and the supreme court has recognized this, that voters know who's behind these ads. and what we have now is a system where -- and it changes from one election to the next. there are changes as we go al g along. increasingly since 2010 we have a system where more money is raised from fewer donors and with less disclosure. in the -- in the top ten senate races in this country, because we don't have the president on the ballot, so the senate is where a lot of the attention is being focused, the senate make change and control from democrat to republican, depending on how -- how the votes go tomorrow. in the top ten races, most of them, there is more money by a long shot being spent by outside spending groups than by the candidates themselves. in the most expensive race, in north carolina, which is a -- not a big state. it's not an ex

of the four deaths that were caused by exploding takata air bags on the cars occurred in oklahoma, virginia, and california. not the humid states that this recall applied to. as the chairman was just referring to. south dakota, minnesota, massachusetts, could have been in that category. when my staff asked nhtsa about these deaths, they were told that the vehicles involved had been recalled for a different takata air bag manufacturing problem years ago. but that they had not been repaired. there is just one problem with the explanation. when my staff put the vehicle i.d. number of two cars involved in 2013 and 2014 fatalities through honda's recall data base, the database says these cars' air bags were repaired some time after 2011. either, one, your recall database is wrong. or, two, the defective air bag was replaced with another defective air bag. or three, the driver received a brand new air bag some time after 2011 and the air bag still killed someone just a few years later. so mr. schostek, which of those three options is it? >> senator markey, i believe it's option one. that our webs

custody in virginia and maryland. i sort of have two questions but they're related to training and stakeholder relations and sort of two parts for barbara and maria. first maria, i want to thank you so much for the wonderful work that the young center does. >> thanks. >> i've had the pleasure of working with one of your child advocates out of the office in harlingen. you make a great difference. i'm so excited you're opening new offices because we need more of your work. >> thanks. >> but barbara, you mentioned there's expanded training for the immigration judges. can you speak a little bit about that? and also maybe generally about what kind of training, if any, is required for immigration judges around issues relating to these unaccompanied minors. >> so we have done some training with the immigration judges, you know. some of you know because of budgetary issues, we've had to have our conferences on dvd for our judges. we had planned a conference actually this summer, a live in-person conference that we had to post

. >> i'm a student at virginia commonwealth university and my question is in regard to the back lock in the informative asigh wlum process and i was just wondering what strategies usas is going to be using to address some of these major backlog issues. >> no and those are great questions because in fact the overall asylum case load as green dramatically related to the circumstances we're discussing. a and in order to process individuals more efficiently at the border, the unact companied children making the claims, we have had to redeploy, we're also hiring more asylum officers in order to meet this additional case load. we do have a workload to catch up so i don't want to minimize -- we are moving affirmatively forward to deal with what is a significant impact in our asylum case load. thank you for your question. >> thank you very much director rodriguez, we really appreciate you being with us. >> thank you. >> we're going to go ahead and get started, we're a little bit behind schedule and i want to get us back on track. >> i'm delighted to follow director rodriguez because he reall

there's also an example in virginia, the department of emergency management has a private sector liaison program. there's research. this is an interesting area, because you will see dls today looks very differently at the cooperative research and development agreements that they utilize. you will see dhs more and more focusing on specific areas that a private sector entity is interested in. in the financial services sector, some focus very specifically on teralines and information sharing and how can the financial services sector help dhs understand and tailer raw intel into a operational way that the financial sector can immediately use it? incutel is an example. i'm sure you are familiar with that helps the cia and other agencies have the cutting edge tools. the focus there is using the research capability of the private sector to help the public sector stay on top and on the cutting edge of what they need. we also find very specific legal carve outs in public private partnerships such as the safety act. there's another panel speaking about the safety act. it's an interesting way in wh

a somberness like the mountains in pennsylvania or west virginia. the same darkening of tone you can see looking from the atlantic towards long island in new york city. a smudgy cobweb of smog on the horizon. once clear from coast to coast, now the dark miasma of soot and smog stressednd all the way from the atlantic to the pacific ashtrays of los angeles and san francisco. you know the last stretch of wide-open space we had left, the american southwestern skyscape, is gone, too. the article's title captured sentiments -- hello, energy. goodbye, big sky. two months earlier a different headline appeared. a journa lfor stockbrokers. coal, the giant revived. the article explained that the coal industry, sensual to the early industrial economy, has recovered from postwar collapse. a single economics and accounted for this revival. in railroads, home heating continued to decline. it had driven a 77% increase in coal production during the 1960's. economic conditions, the journal reported, now favored coal as the primary source of energy for the nation. re

>> and bob goodlatte, republican of virginia, he writes in the opinion pages of "the wall street journal" this morning that congress will fight obama's power grab. the president's amnesty plan for millions of unlawful immigrants clearly violates the constitution s what he writes in "the wall street journal." cristina marcos, any other takeaways from the chairmanship posts? >> another chairman that was surprising is house intelligence committee, appointed by speaker boehner. out of three competitors the most senior was jeff miller of florida. currently chairman of veterans affairs committee. nunez of california won out over the other competitors. it's noteworthy because nunez is a close friend of speaker boehner. that surely helped him in the selection process. >> for more information about these chairmanships g to the hill's website, thehill.com. cristina marcos, that are for your time. >>> with live coverage of the u.s. house on c-span and the senate on c-span2, here on c-span3 we complement that. and on week ends, c-span3 is the home to american history tv with programs that tell our n

i'm from the university of virginia law school. i had a question about the accident avoidance algorithms, and if there's any indication from any other companies about the approach to this. is it going to be, you know, every car for itself, for accident avoidance, just protect that car, or is it going to try and reduce injury to both cars, if reduce injury to both cars if they're communicating or if there's any concerns with that. >> that's a great question, as someone who studied philosophy in the old days, their so-called charlie problem that comes up in ethical philosophy, two charlies heading at each other, what do you do? you have all sorts of live and death trolly -- how to create more ethical algorithms, do you have two driverless cars hit each other. if one goes off the bridge, and the other is going to hit a car load of kids, which do you do? through trial and error, we learn how to avoid that. no matter how thorny those ethical algorithms are, i'm confident that those intelligent vehicle technologies will help us avoid mor
