scott: mr. speaker, you have ruled that these unanimous consent requests cannot be entertained because they have not been precleared. it's obvious the democratic leadership supports these motions and i would wonder if it would be in order for the republicans here now to preclear these unanimous consent requests so we can vote to reopen overnment. as speaker pro tempore: indated in section 956 of the house rules and manual it is not proper to ask the chair to indicate which side of the aisle has failed under the speaker's guidelines to clear a unanimous consent request. mr. scott: further parliamentary inquiry. apparently the chair can't do it. is it in order for me to ask the republicans to preclear the unanimous consent request? the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman is free to try to obtain clearance. mr. scott: i yield to anybody on the republican side at this time under my parliamentary inquiry to please clear -- the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman is recognized is not recognized to yield

scott. the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman from georgia, is recognized for one minute. mr. scott: thank you very much. i rise to support this very needed legislation. let me make a point here there is a very important part of this legislation that sets up the budget commission. and i would like to make an appeal to that commission to not only get a good budget to us but take some time to get mechanism in place to prevent us from ever again shutting down the federal government. we take a solemn oath here to defend the federal government, to support the federal government, to uphold the federal government, and we must honor that. maybe we can do mandatory arbitration, but we have some smart people in this place. we hurt too many people when we shut down the federal government. and let us hopefully we can put the mitch mcconnell rule in place, god bless that senator from kentucky and the courming he had to step forward in a bipartisan way so we can put that mechanism in place so we can never again put our good faith and credit at risk in this country. and timely, let us, democ

i'd like to yield at this time to the gentleman from virginia, mr. scott. mr. scott: thank you. i thank the gentleman from nevada for yielding. mr. speaker, it's time to end this shutdown, we are -- the absurdity of it begins with the fact that we are now going to pay people for not working, we need to bring them back to work to provide the services and do the work that they're being paid to do. mr. speaker, this shutdown is really not based on reality. some who have said -- some apparently believe that if they just stay the course and keep the government shut down, they will be able to repeal or substantially undermine obamacare. that's not going to happen. and so, we're not based in reality. now they're blaming democrats for not negotiating. but there's nothing to negotiate. we're talking about the budget. the republicans came in with one number, the democrats had a higher number. the senate decided not to negotiate, but rather accept the republican number. so we're in agreement. there's nothing to negotiate. in the 1990's, when they had a disagreement on the budget, there wer

and i now yield to mr. scott. mr. scott: i'd like to thank the gentleman from california, my friend and colleague, and strong advocate for agriculture in this country. mr. speaker, americans do not like being dependent on foreign oil and americans sure don't want to become dependent on foreign food. that's why, mr. speaker, i rise today to discuss the importance of passing a farm bill. in my home state of georgia, agriculture plays a major role in the overall success of our state. last year georgia agriculture was valued at over $14 billion and the total economic impact was $72 billion. this contribution makes up approximately 10% of our gross domestic product. and 360,000 jobs. in my district, it's one of every eight jobs that's tied to agriculture. as a major economic driver of our state, the agricultural industry has suffered without the certainty of a farm bill. over the past several months, our farmers have had to deal with this uncertainty within the industry because washington has not been able to agree on a fa

mr. scott: thank you, madam chair. so if you rule against the motion, against the point of order, we could have an up or down vote. otherwise, the up or down vote will essentially be on the motion to table. we should vote against the motion. the speaker pro tempore: the chair will rule. the gentleman from alabama makes a point of order that the instructions proposed in the motion to recommit offered by the gentlewoman from arizona are not germane. the joint resolution extends nding related to the special supplemental nutrition assistance program for women, infants and children. the instructions in the motion propose an order of business in the house. as the chair ruled earlier today as well as on october 2 and october 3, 2013, a motion to recommit proposing an order of business of the house is not germane to a measure providing for the appropriation of funds on committee jurisdiction grounds. hear the instructions proposed a nongermane amendment, the point of order is sustained. mrs. kirkpatrick: madam chair, i appeal

joining us tim scott. mr. scott, welcome to the show. first time. we appreciate it very much. some people have said that we're not going to get the debt ceiling increased properly until we end the shutdown of the government. until we reopen the government. some people have come on the show tonight and said that by monday, we could reopen the government and end the shutdown. where do you come out on all that? >> i think it's obvious that the negotiators at the table really are the house majority republicans, the senate majority democrats have to get to the same table. the president will have to sign off on a deal. i think there is some reason to be optimistic that that will happen. no question that today's announcement from speaker boehner about the six-week debt court of appeal sag different conversation, be the same path forward. the real question we should ask ourselves as americans and as taxpayers are we dealing with the underlying problem that continues to push up the need for a credit card increase? that debt ceiling is an increase only reflects the fact that we spent mo

mr. scott: thank you. i thank the gentleman from new nevada,e gentleman from for organizing the special order and the gentlelady from ohio for her leadership in the black caucus and the other members who are par tess pating tonight. our economy has been improving slowly over the last few years and we need to do everything we can to make sure that we create s many jobs as possible. thursday, the united states faces a crisis, that is whether we'll pay our debts or whether we will, for the first time in our history, default on our debts. now the debate on the debt ceiling really isn't much of a debate because every credible economist has already concluded that failure to adjust the debt ceiling will cause serious adverse consequences to the domestic economy and the global economy that owlingt to end the debate. for those who want more information, you only have to look back a couple of years where the republicans made a credible threat on the debt ceiling and the s&p just based on the credible threat, althoug

mr. scott: and that, mr. speaker, is all that we have asked for. if the president would simply agree to give the people of this country the same relief that he has given powerful corporations, we wouldn't be shut down right now. house republicans will continue our efforts to pass bills that reflect the american people's priorities and their rights and keep the government running. we hope that president obama and harry reid will negotiate in good faith, and join republicans in our efforts to keep the government funded and protect the rights of the american citizens. thank you, mr. speaker. i yield back. the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman yields back. for what purpose does the gentleman from florida seek recognition? >> unanimous consent to address the house for one minute. revise and extend my remarks. the speaker pro tempore: does the gentleman seek unanimous consent? without objection, the gentleman is recognized for one minute. mr. hastings: thank you very much, mr. speaker. my heart is heavy because of the death of one of my dearest friends

mr. president. i yield the floor. a senator: mr. president? the presiding officer: the senator from south dakota. mr. thune: mr. president, a week ago today western south dakota was preparing for a coming storm, but no one had any idea it would be one of the worst and most devastating snowstorms in that area's history. i grew up in western south dakota. i was born and raised there. we saw a lot of nasty blizzards over the years, storms that sweep through the middle of our state and all across our state. and the destructive impact that can have, the way they would close down roads, the difficulty they would create for people. and obviously the loss of livestock that comes with that. we've seen over the years blizzards that have taken their toll on one of our state's most important industries. but the storm damage that i saw yesterday when i toured western south dakota really was epic. you can't look at the mountains and branches that were piled high waiting fordice posal or the -- for disp

i turn to the gentleman from georgia, mr. scott. >> >> thank you, an honor to join you, other colleagues here today, and be part of the conference committee. i'm confident as we work together we can complier things over the next few weeks that result in a farm bill good for the farmers, agricultural industry, and good for the american people. as we sit here today to begin negotiations, cotton, peanuts, ab other row crops are picked in georgia. our producers and ranchers who built families and livelihoods on the successful agriculture industry now more than ever need certainty of a five-year farm bill. the harvest will be over soon, and in a few months, farmers begin preparations for the 2014 farm year. talking with their banks and securing operating loans. soon after, they will be turning dirt without the certainty of a five-year farm bill. this would be difficult, if not impossible, for many of the family farmers and producers in georgia. to achieve this, i know we have to meet in the middle on many issues. i urge my colleag

davis scott. >> ladies and america, don't be fooled. don't be fooled by what the republicans are doing tonight. 19 hours ago, they closed down this government. they closed down the government on the veterans. they close down the government on dc they close down the government on those who serve our parks. many of them when they left your 19 hours ago were high fighting and celebrating. we closed it down, we closed it down and now they are here. they are here today with this hypocritical and deceitful act that now they want to do something for the veterans. they want to use these veterans -- ladies and gentlemen, this is nothing but a fig leaf to hide the shame of what this republican party did last night. and to use the veterans-- instead of just talking about 10 or 12 weeks -- to be able to send a 5.2 billion dollars in seo done something -- we have 21 veterans committing suicide every day. where are you talking about that? 4 in my district alone. we need to treat our veterans with the respect that they deserve by making sure that we p

mr. scott: thank you. and i thank the gentlelady for yielding. mr. speaker, i rise in opposition to h.r. 2374, the so-called retail investor protection act. h.r. 2374 delays the department of labor's rulemaking process that would protect investors from unscrupulous investment scams. now, in past generations, pension plans -- there was a defined benefit. you look at the numbers of -- the number of years, your last salary and the mull approximately and you could calculate what your pension would be. but more and more we're seeing the fund contribution plans where the employer just makes a contribution and the final benefit would be whatever happens to the money over the years, with the investment advice that you're given. the trend has had a profound impact on thality mate -- ultimate retirement benefits and security. two people investing the same amount, for example, $100 a month over 30 years, could see very different retirement savings over that same period of time based on what investments they chose. those investment choices could be the differenc

mr. scott: that does not help the middle class. another shared the news that he recently learned from his employer, and again i quote, my premiums are going up over $1,200 a year and my deductible is going up by over $1,000 a year and my out-of-pocket maximum will move from $3,500 to $6,500. that is more than a house payment for many georgians, mr. speaker. these are hardworking middle class families in my district who were promised by the president that if they liked their insurance they could keep their current health care plans. now these plans are more expensive and my constituents have less coverage. this is unacceptable, mr. speaker, and contrary to the president's promises, obamacare is driving up cost, thretsening jobs and kicking georgia -- threatening jobs and kicking georgians out of the plans they like and were promised they could keep. mr. speaker, thank you and yield back. the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman's time has expired. for what purpose does the gentlelady from new york seek recognition? ms. velazquez: to a

mr. speaker, scott is not alone. families across this country are baffled by obamacare sticker shock. accepting the devastating truth that costs will be much higher for them next year, some families are trying to find a way to make it work, but they can't even get to the website. but what do they hear from washington? obamacare apologists say, be patient with us. we'll get these glitches sorted out. it will take a few years and you'll all be used to it. mr. speaker, if only those voices in washington would be willing to give the american people the same time and patience they are demanding. -- patience they are demanding. a bipartisan house majority has asked for families to have one penalty-free year to figure out what obamacare will mean for their families and for their budgets. one penalty for a year. not unlike the penalty for a year the president gave to big business all on his own. fairness, that's what we have asked for. fairness. that's what senate democrats are refusing to discuss. fairness. that's what the

mr. scott: to our national defense. i'm sorry, mr. speaker, but what the president is doing is wrong. the civilian workers that design, build, and maintain our planes, our ships, and support our war fighters and everything that they do are essential and should not be furloughed simply because the president shoozes to do so. every member of our national guard and service should be paid while we wait on harry reid and the president to agree to negotiate. that's why i introduce our pay our guardsmen and civilian personnel act. our national security depends on these men and women and they should be paid while we are waiting on the president and senator reid simply to do their job and agree to negotiate with us. i urge my colleagues to support this measure. thank you, mr. speaker. i yield back. the speaker pro tempore: for what purpose does the gentlelady from arizona seek recognition? >> request unanimous consent to address the house for one minute. revise and extend my remarks. the speaker pro tempore: without objection, the gentlelady f

that is, until march of 2009 when ben bernanke sat down with scott pelley. >> mr. chairman, i'm gonna start with a question that everyone wants me to ask. when does this end? >> it depends a lot on the financial system. the lesson of history is that you do not get a sustained economic recovery as long as the financial system is in crisis. now, we've seen some progress in the financial markets, absolutely, but until we get that stabilized and working normally, we're not gonna see recovery. >> i wonder, do you expect double-digit unemployment? >> well, it's hard to forecast exactly where we're going. unemployment is rising. job losses are still very severe. and, no doubt, the unemployment rate's gonna go higher than it is. but i think, again, that if we do succeed in stabilizing the financial system, that we'll begin to see a slower pace of decline and eventually a stabilization that will set the basis for a recovery. >> ben bernanke, age 55, has been chairman of the federal reserve board since 2006. for our interview, he opened up the fed headquarters, rarely seen b
