nevada and wyoming and delaware provides the type of anonymity and protecting the actors that we have seen from russia and other hypocrisy in other regions. these states have come rely heavily on this industry whether it is in nevada using to fund their public schoolteachers or wyoming or helping fund their general budget ordeal wa delawa. last check was 40% relying on company formation. ungodly numbers that driven the race at the bottom that allows the u.s. transition into this offshore. it has been going on for years. one of the forms of the past 20 years, it was a great nicolas ca cage's movie. the first family, one of the regimes besides north korea have shown companies here in the u.s., the former ukraine prime minister and one globally, into the u.s. and came to wyoming where he set up the company. thankfully, things may start to change. maybe? we'll see. there was legislation that was very close to passing. it was as recently as lost month. it was the financial transparency bill. it would require the u.s. to collect information on who's setting up the company. the beneficial, t

than delaware overall. people in these communities did not know that their homes were built on landfills, their homes and schools and playgrounds, near these toxic plants. that are predominantly, detrimental i'm sorry to their health and the health of their children. i now understand why so many people in my neighborhood suffer with asthma, why my own father died of pancreatic cancer, my now 82-year-old mother had breast cancer and i'm a two-time cancer survivor of breast cancer, age 19 and colon cancer at 58. this is no coincidence. it's called cumulative impact of these environmental injustices. just recently we released a report environmental justice for delaware, mitigating toxic pollution for communities. in newcastle county. that report was done by my organization, that i belong to delaware concerned residents for environmental justice, the environmental justice health alliance, coming clean in the union of concerned scientists. it revealed that my community has the second highest cancer and respirato

for example, my home state of delaware has a compelling story to tell. the endangered species act has successfully recovered species and hours eight recently. delaware is proud to host species like the red dot burden -- bird and the piping clover. that when recovered also. people travel from all over the world to view these special birds from beaches. along the atlantic ocean and delaware bay, i joined a couple of birds a couple of months ago. >> we also enjoy a wonderful working relationship with the u.s. fishery and wildlife service. we want to successfully prevent new listings. no law is perfect, i think we all know that. and delaware's experience, changes to the endangered species act are a prerequisite for the law to work. i believe that our state could do exponentially more to recover species and prevent listings with additional resources. the governors association seems to agree with this assessment. >> i remember the previous endangered species were underfunded. legislation today does not provide a meaningful solution for species conversation --

the delaware river is a national asset. i urge a yes vote on the lance-gottheimer amendment and i'm deeply grateful for the committee chair and subcommittee chair for their support. i reserve the balance of my time. the chair: the gentleman from new jersey reserves. for what purpose does the gentlewoman from seek recognition? ms. wasserman schultz: i rise to claim time but i'm not opposed. i thank my colleagues on their work and ranking member quigley and chairman graves on their financial services but unfortunately i cannot support this package. his fails to fund critical programs. last year after an unprecedented attack on our democracy, we came o a consensus on the need to secure election security. this year, the ma majority zeroed out the account. given the indictments handed by special counsel mueller and the disgraceful performance by the president i cannot think to fund. if the president of the united states is unwilling to stand up to putin, it is incouple bept upon us to do so. this bill fails the american people u

the presiding officer: the senator from delaware. mr. carper: as the presiding officer may know, i spent many years of my life in the navy. some 23 years of my life. i was a naval flight officer, spent most of those 23 years has a p-3 aircraft commander. he was even for a limited period of time the air commander when we were deployed in southeast asia. i flew hundreds of missions during both the vietnam war and the cold war, conducting surveillance operations, gathering intelligence on the soviets, on the soviets and on others who sought to undermine and destroy the american way of life. as a cold war warrior watching an american president yesterday blatantly ignoring attacks on our democracy and our intelligence agencies was beyond galling; it was reprehensible. reprehensible. four days ago special counsel mueller indicted 2 russian intelligence officers for interfering in our democratic elections in 2016. that same day, last friday, fray day the 13th, the director of national intelligence, our old colleague dan coats from indiana, said

delaware is destiny. if we do our job, every state in the country will be like delaware with democratic senators and legislature. so now we're going to turn before we get into the planks and into the ideas in a deep way, we want to talk about the political challenge. which is very much a geographical challenge. when you look at the map it comes through. in the last 0 years we've seen our party lose ground in the midwest. in the last 10 years and as a result lose control of congress, lose the white house and lose control of those state legislatures. it's essential for us to think how we reverse that slide in the critical battleground region. we have several folks, wonderful group to talk about that. with congresswoman sherry bustos. with former secretary of agriculture, tom vilsack. with my friend harrison hick, my great democratic strategist and pollster and our colleague, paul bledsoe, we're going to talk about aspects of this challenge. without further ado, i want to say one other thing -- about congres

the presiding officer: the senator from delaware. mr. coons: i rise to speak in support of an amendment i look forward to advancing. as a member of the subcommittee, in fact the ranking democrat, i was pleased to have the opportunity to work in a bipartisan way to secure $380 million in the last fiscal year that's been distributed to the states to secure our elections. and as you may have heard from some who oppose this in the appropriations committee when we took it up and debated it, they asked a few simple questions i will try to address quickly. isn't elections -- aren't elections a state and local responsibility? why should the federal government be providing funding for states and localities to secure their elections? that's true. elections are overwhelmingly run at the state and local level, and the costs of securing and modernizing our voting machines and our voting systems will be overwhelmingly borne at the state and local level. second, this $380 million, it was just made available, and i don't think it's even gone out yet

he is beloved in delaware and for good reason. he is brilliant, and there's no question about that -- you know it when you hear it and people across the country have seen it but he's also just incredibly real. this is a guy who -- are you the only chemist in the senate? berkeley law degree and a divinity degree from yale, went to south africa to work for bishop tutu -- came back to work for the coalition in new york -- not in the office, but on the streets. he has learned not just in the classroom, but has learned so much by doing and by listening. >>> that led to research and development tax credits -- easier access to credit for small businesses and startups and also led an effort called manufacturing usa institute -- a number of institutes across -- the country and he's always believed the government can't do it itself and it's about the public-private and academic sectors and not -- not-for- profit sectors and you are starting to see these manufacturing institutes pop up across the country including right here in delaware -- i

if we do our jobs every stay in the country would be like delaware. so now before we get into the ideas we want to talk about political challenges which is a geographical challenge when you look at this map over the last ten years we have seen our party lose ground in the midwest so lose control of congress and the white house in the state legislatures. it is essential for us to think about how we reverse that slide with the critical battleground regions with several people to talk about that with the former secretary of agriculture tom hill sack and our colleague and we will talk about aspects of this challenge. i just want to say one other thing about the congresswoman she is a rising star in the house to represent the illinois 17 of those districts that trump one in 2016 held by the democrats she is at ground zero. but the party has asked her to get into the attitudes of democrats and voters in general of the midwest really it is a focus group of elected democrats who are struggling to win and those who are succeeding and they have a lot of support

the senator from delaware. mr. coons: i just wanted to join my colleague from arizona in briefly remarking on my regret that our resolution was not adopted today. it does call for the full implementation of mandatory sanctions provided for in caatsa, as discussed at some helping, but it does not call for the reckless implementation of mandatory sanctions. there are a significant range of sanctions already provided toker in this law, adopted by 98-2 in this body that have not yet been adopted. i recognize that this resolution, standing strong behind the department of justice, the intelligence community, and its ongoing investigation is, as was researchersed, is sill beneficiary a -- as was referenced, is a symbolic act. but there are moments when that is important. and i look forward to continuing to work closely with my colleague and friend from arizona to ensure that this resolution adopted, that the american people and the men and women of our federal law enforcement agencies and our intelligence community unders

i'm hearing from folks in delaware, from port workers at the docs who are concerned that ship loads of steel that come to my state in the wintertime from sweden and from finland will not be coming. at cost will be raised that their jobs will be harmed. i'm hearing from soybean farmers that they are facing the lowest price for their crops in a decade. folks are confused and they are anxious and they have a concern. and you just heard it from us on a bipartisan basis. the president trump has lost a trade war without a strategy and without a plan for how to get through this. in your prepared remarks would you have repeated, you said allies and partners share our frustration in responding to the challenge of china's economic aggression. we are building an international coalition to address china's policies which distort markets and discriminate against international competition and for technology transfer and permits after sensitive intellectual property. madame assistant secretary, if that is what you are doing, i would be cheering. i would be saying what a terrific plan. i only wish this

joining us now is democratic senator chris coons of delaware. senator, thanks so much for being with us. you were asked flat out if the president's all caps tweets on iran and then of course this statement from the white house press briefing room on the possibility of revoking security clearances, you were asked bluntly is this an effort to distract by the president? your answer was, yes. >> that's right, john. frankly the idea that a few career intelligence officials who served across both republican and democratic administrations should have their security clearances revoked is a pure distraction. it's also just frankly being petty. most of these officials either don't use their security clearances or have no relevant access to classified information anymore. and i'll note that the list of who is being singled out exactly coincides with those who have been publicly critical of the president. this is the sort of attack on free speech, the press and the rights of individuals to speak out in our country that really doesn't serve the president wel
