we want accessible housing, affordable housing, and again, i say i'm against the monster and i'm here for the -- i vote fo for the maravilla. >> president melgar: thank you very much, maria, so we will now take something from this aisle, and then next. >> commissioners, my name is tim paulsen. i'm a 35-year resident of the mission district. i've been evicted twice over the years and made the good or bad decision of purchasing a house close to 30 years ago even though i didn't want to. today, i'm here because i'm the second treasurer now of the san francisco building and construction trades council, and we have hundreds of members that live in not just this neighborhood but in this community. housing is -- i think we can all admit -- the biggest crisis next to health care in san francisco and this country. and because of the democratic process that you commissioners are working on right now, we have the opportunity to fight and to talk about affordable housing and to make sure that developers are going to treat workers well and are going to be successful looking at the community and tr

housing. there are a lot of people in here that were questioning the rationale for that housing when we had a hearing on it, the forest hills, laguna honda affordable housing project that we did not build because of opposition. we have to build where it makes sense. there are still a lot of places we can build in san francisco, and i think we need to do it. looking at this regionally is a great concept, a great step and we have to continue on. >> thank you. just a couple of quick things. we will be doing an analysis of s.b. 50. the reason we haven't done it yet is the bill is changing. it will likely change fairly substantially over the next month touch at six weeks. we are waiting for that line of changes to do that detailed analysis. i think i wanted to emphasize something that commissioner hillis just said. the reason that i voted the report at the meeting was because it's a regional report. i think -- i can't emphasize that enough. the chart that marion presented last time she has every de

the hilli joined newspaper, started covering house republicans, then the speaker of the house was john boehner, but we have had some turnover over the years and mccarthy has been a consistent force throughout the time. so, now after four years in the majority i'm covering him in the minority. a consistent force coupled with a pretty quick rise both in the california assembly and house of representatives. for both of you, what is the secret to his success? why has he advance so quickly in the state assembly and the congress? guest: he was very good at seeing what people want, what they need, doing things for them politically and helping them raise money. he is somewhat chameleonlike ideologically. of where thet party is going and he is very good at helping people elevate their political careers. people get indebted to him. he's not a firm ideologue. he's more of a centrist from california who has hitched his wagon more to trump lately in the tea party when he helped them take over congress in 2010. he's just very shrewd at looking at the electoral map, seeing who needs what, the donors

the house will be in order. he house will be in order. for what purpose does the gentleman from massachusetts seek recognition? mr. mcgovern: mr. speaker, i send to the desk a privileged report from the committee on rules for filing under the rule. the speaker pro tempore: the clerk will report the title. the clerk: report to accompany house resolution 122, resolution providing for consideration of the joint resolution, house joint resolution 37, directing the removal of united states armed forces from hostilities in the republic of yemen, that have not yet -- that have not been authorized by congress, waiving a requirement of clause 6-a of rule 13, with respect to consideration of certain resolutions reported from the committee on rules and providing for consideration of motions to suspend the rules. the speaker pro tempore: referred to the house calendar and ordered printed. the house will please come to order. the house will please come to order. members should take their seats. for what purpose does the gentleman from maryland seek re

it is simple, affordable housing as of right because housing affordability is a right. [applause] >> this is how we create housing for all san franciscans, and i will continue to work with our state legislators, our regional partners, our new governor, because housing affordability isn't just a san francisco issue , it is a crisis throughout the state of california. we won't always see the results of these efforts immediately, it may take some years to his see some changes, but then we have started to build more aggressively 20 years ago, we wouldn't be in the situation we are in today. [applause] >> we might have inherited a problem decades in the making, but we cannot be the ones who pass it on to the next generation. [applause] >> as we grow, we must make our streets clean and our communities safe. since my first day in office, i have been out walking our neighboured neighborhood. this is not okay. it is not healthy. and while there is much more to do, we are working every day to stop it. it is no secret i have put in a lot of focus in the tenderloin and the south of

the house. he was a new deal democrat and he was rounding up votes for fdr who called him tell me. that was her dad who also called him tommy and served in the house. she moved to san francisco in 1969 and she becomes the darling of the burton machine. there were two factions in san francisco. pelosi got along with both factions. she is this unifying force in the democratic party. the liberals, the progressive s, the establishment. when she first ran for office, the first time she ran, she was a wealthy woman from pacific heights who was comfortable in social settings where it was impolite to mention philip burton's name. she has always been a person who democrats could rally around. host: she is also the product of catholic education and her primary and secondary school and trinity college here in washington, d.c. how important is her religion to her? susan: she grew up in italian catholic and it is an important part of who she is today. she is a faithful catholic and she describes it as an imp

not just with building new housing but preserving the existing affordable housing stock. we will continue to invest in our small size acquisition program so that we can acquire building and keep people housed and keep those buildings permanently affordable. we will continue to do all we can to coordinate with this community, to obtain more site and to make sure that we're investing in more affordable housing. the city is not done the best job of building housing period. we can do better. we are do better. we are do a better job of nation thesinmaking these right invest. working together, i know there's nothing we won't be able to do in our city. some of you may also have heard about the $300 million affordable housing bond that we are going to bring to the ballot soon. the goal is to make sure that when we need support for projects like this, they don't have to wait years. they don't have to wait too long. we are going to get some things done in san francisco and this project, as we all know, which is taken long time, it's going to be completed and going to be an incredib

housing yes. so thank you everyone and i hope you get to walk around and just look at this it's absolutely beautiful. thank you. as a mere breed made reference to all of the partners the mayor's office of housing kate hartley and her staff are here today provided a lot of money and let's just say moral support. but bank of america has had an outsized role in this red program not only in west side court but in every development in the city providing virtually all of the debt and equity financing i think the total of financing is up in the seven or eight hundred million dollar range which is really pretty remarkable when you think that one institution has been responsible for that. so with that i'd like to call to the podium lives minnick an executive with bank of america and the bay area about thank you and good night. there we go. thank you and good afternoon everyone i can talk really loud i could probably do about it. all right okay thank you so much. and bank of america is so please i was actua

by the house of representatives. the senate is controlled by the senate. it will look and feel different tonight because it is a network will situation. cnn is the pool. we share resources. you get a different perspective as a president delivers his remarks. we will give you a sense of what's happening here on capitol hill. security extremely tight. on our website, there are a couple of times he could watch it. you can watch the isolated cameras and identify which shots you want to look at. this video on demand of the speech. video on demand of's previous state of the union addresses dating back to the early 1980's. all of it is available at c-span.org. we welcome my listeners on c-span radio as well. before the address, members of congress need to have dinner. , more withradition our historian don ritchie. don: the secretary of the senate will host a dinner. if tradition holds, the menu will involve chicken pot pie. one of the former curators developed it years ago. each secretary of the senate has kept up the menu.

housing. and much more. yeah of course it's no surprise that he you know this this governor. well he vittoria famously i think a couple of weeks into his term in mayor got all of the city department heads in a van and sent them all down right here to sort of show them make make sure they knew work that hard to get done and although that was a long time ago and a long time before the great work mayor lee and you madam mayor. even then made sure that when they walked away from that first trip. they were also making sure that they had some improvements in place and they were doing the work just to make sure this building community was livable until the good work of this could actually come come come to play. so yes. so thank you too do you jack. thank you to the elected leadership here to you met a mayor for your incredible leadership and you're passionate work in this supervisor walton mr. tobias thank you as well for all the residents who who kept the faith in this journey rich point dividing g

he has removed press passes from the people's house, the white house. so on the president's said we have a safety issue. not just a politician not wanting to answer questions. that happens every day in this country. >> tammy: certainly but you can say no without asking a question without saying you will call the police on someone. you don't think it's a security issue or sends a signal to americans that reporters should be arrested if they dare to ask a question? >> as far as i know the capitol police were not called. >> but he threatened it. >> the halls of congress are a public zone and thes press have a right to public zone. keeping press from the white house is the people's house. >> tammy: you can -- keeping press is not the same as asking for a different reporter to represent an entity. i understand what you are saying but i think the president is powerful. a senator is powerful. zack, what is your take on this? >> what is good for the goose is not good for the gander. but on the big issue and the reason that the president can get away with saying

we believe there was one house high up. that came sliding down and took another house wit. don't know which house it was. this one we're looking at or up the road. apparently between homes. fortunately they believe the other home was vacant and you had this had the lady wheeled off inside. >> so was she actually in the house you think that slid off? or she was in the one where the vacant house slid into hers? >> reporter: we're not sure. that part we're not sure about. we know that one -- we believe one slid into another. whether it was the initial one to slide down or the other way around, that part we're not sure of. i'm trying to see if there's a firefighter we can speak to. these guys are pretty busy trying to get more details. before they did pull her out, when i was talking to the out, he was very confident in the fact they were able to get her. obviously reiterating the fact she was going to survive and that she was able to move around in there and move some debris around to find -- to get a better vantage point. hey there. morning. >> if you're just joining us -- go

you have provoked a response from the white house. with your reporting today, the white house which cannot beca believed about anything, ever, issued this statement saying thg president replaced the old system that was there, he paid for the new one, includingw installation personally. he hasst no used it since its bn installed. in fact, that means we have no idea who paid for it, we have no idea how much he uses it, because there is not a person in that press office who can be believed about anything. >> well, one part that have we were able to check that, indeed, president obama president obama did have one of these things it was a less sophisticated version than what trump installed trump has the top of the line. that did turn out to be true we checked that. another part i have the white house's word on and that is it. >> this is coming at a point where people have been wonderinn how did he survive the 35-day shutdown not being able to go tb his golf courses every weekend. we now have reason to suspect that he was able to work on h

mike: so you won the house leadership race and those are the most vicious races there are to be house democratic chair. you called it perhaps with a wink, you called it a friendly contest of ideas. mr. jeffries: well, that's correct. member--on-member races are always difficult because there are relationships throughout all sides of the caucus and people have to choose one or the other. but, you know, i have tremendous respect for barbara lee. she's a great visionary member of the house democratic caucus. her voice, which is a strong one, will continue to be heard in a powerful way. mike: as you came on stage, you and i were talking about your work on the first step back, the historic criminal justice bill. what else do you think can be done between house democrats and the president? mr. jeffries: well, one of the things that we want to work on in the context of driving down health care costs is reducing the high price of life-saving prescription drugs. mike: which he said he's for. mr. jeffries: he came to the state of the union and i indicated that's something he ants to work on. ou

so far crickets from his twitter feed and the white house. the president meets with his cabinet later this hour so please stay tuned for more on that. let's get to where things stand at this very moment. dana bash, abby philip, phil mattingly standing by. can some 800,000 federal employees breathe a sigh of relief? >> i think there has been a lesson probably wait until the president puts pen to paper before breathing signs of relief or grasping the possibility. i would say this. there is a reality on capitol hill. they will lose democrats for issues on the bill. it was said that not everybody got everything they wanted. that is the art of how these things work. mitch mcconnell said the senate will move to this in short order. speaker nancy pelosi is likely behind the deal. if you want to get a sense of the mood, take a listen to what my colleague got from a couple of republican senators a short while ago. >> we don't shutdown again. shutdowns never work for anything. >> i certainly hope it is something he can accept. >> the compromise that ha

>> the president just arrived back here at the white house after his annual physical with the white house doctor, but officials were definitely interested in a different examination. we're watching to see how matt whitaker performed today. a white house official told me earlier this evening that they believe that the hearing went about as expected. one question in particular that they were interested in hearing over here is how whitaker responded when asked whether he had briefed the president on the mueller investigation. one whousz official said whitaker's denial that he had spoken with the president was consistent with what mr. trump had said in the past and they felt pretty good about the answer. he was confident about how he was going to perform, and here's how he put it. >> i would say if he did testify, he would do very, very well. he's a very, very fine man. >> wolf, the president just arrived back after the physical at walter reed. he did not answer reporters' questions, so he did not weigh in on how matt whitaker was handled. i believe he feels matt whitaker did not do any harm

housing goals. to date, mercy has achieved over 90% s.b.e. participation overall. the general contractor for this project are committed to acheefg 50% s.b.e. participation during the construction phase, as well, and they're actively pursuing opportunities to join with local s.b.e.s. should the commission approve this request, the next step is starting construction later this year. after the project is completed, the assets related to six west will be transferred to mayor's office of housing and community development in accordance with reveemt agency dissolution law: and finally, i want to take a moment to introduce members of the development team here today. if you would please stand. for mercy housing, we have doug, the president. from paula taggert associates, we have paula. we have from success hunter san francisco, lise. and also from timing, we have eastrick. i'm not sure if dr. steven savage is present -- >> behind you. >> okay. great. so with that, that concludes my presentation and myself an

this house has been clear about these issues. as i indicated in an earlier response, it is this question of the different legal force of the commitments that have been made so far, and that's the one i have raised with the eu, and the concern that the withdrawal agreement in the international treaty would currently take precedence over the legal assurances that were given the separate letter about the temporary nature of the backstop. it is that equivalent of a legally binding nature, to make sure that the withdrawal agreement cannot then trump anything extra, which is important. luciano burge. mr speaker, thank you. the whole house will have heard the prime minister's dispensed to the prime minister's dispensed to the honourable and the members important question about the withdrawal act and limitations built and they will have heard the prime minister's response that she doesn't not intend to honour the 21 days it should be laid down. we haven't seen the draft of this bill, it deals with thorny issues like the divorce bill, eu

house speaker john boehner. watch the funeral services for congressman john dingell live on c-span and c-span.org or listen with the free c-span radio app. >> house democratic leaders earlier today held a closed-door meeting with fellow members on the upcoming legislative agenda. after it was over, caucus chair hakeem jeffries held this briefing with reporters, speaking mostly about border security and government funding. mr. jeffries: good morning. house democrats consistently articulated the position that we needed to reopen the have ent so then we can a mature conversation about border security. the government, after a 35-day reckless shutdown, was reopened , a conference committee was appointed, and democrats and republicans have now come together on a bipartisan agreement to move us forward. the american people expect that when there is divided government, democrats and republicans, the left and the right, progressives and conservatives, will come together to try and find common ground in the best interests

nothing is happening in the house? he says what the last thing he should be saying, look what he did with the benghazi committee, look how much we weakened hillary clinton. then it makes the whole thing, you know, you have the republican leader admitting that the whole thing is a political charade or at least partly a political charade and that undermined the investigation, trey gowdy, the chair of the committee, was upset. the republicans were saying he shouldn't have said this. jason chaffetz who at the time was running the oversight committee also suggested maybe he would be running for speaker he said look, part of this job, a big part of this job, is to be a communicator. we have someone who can communicate and will damage mccarthy. host: as a side note, jason chaffetz left the house of representatives to become a permanent commentator on television. >> his famous line from that episode, we need a speaker who speaks. that resonated throughout the conference. it threw a spotlight on kevin mccarthy's weakness which

hospitality house. just want to urge us to remind ourselves that they don't have to be any winners or losers in this discussion only champions. that's why we're here today. i'm actually thrilled to see so many compelling voices coming out and speaking on issues that are important to the community. as a point of a historical reference, the reason there is not eraf fund to begin with is that it's properly tax money that was stolen from the countries 25 years ago and resulted in billions of cuts to community service and human services. we're trying to set some of that right today. we can do that in advance to avoid pitting one class of people against another. poor people against dispute people against homeless people and our public schoolteachers. we do not need to do that. the question is simple. you're leaders. act like it. this is a opportunity to lift up the city and as previous speakers have noted, to throw down the gauntlet to the business community. this is how we're going to do business in this tow

the house is dealing with those in good order. and 26 years after her son's murder, doreen lawrence takes on the government. if the amount of white kids would be murdered on our streets as the amount of black kids, society would not have sat back and allowed that to happen. half term has been cancelled, the brexit clock ticks ever more loudly, but theresa may still seems some way off winning parliamentary backing for her deal. with just weeks to go before britain is due to leave the eu, the prime minister insists she's determined to deliver brexit on time. she's also said to have told tuesday's cabinet meeting that it must and will still happen on march 29th. at prime minister's questions, minus the prime minister, labour's emily thornberry asked for a sensible grown—up discussion on the plan between now and exit day, which she said should be delayed. does the prime minister seriously think that she will get anything different than the responses that we've heard from the eu over recent days? because none of them have given us an

in the case of the shutdown, he was at the white house. >> he was at the white house. part of that is because the appearance factor, the optics. the government is shut down. you have 800,000 or so federal workers who are eerither not getting paid, have to work and not get paid, others not getting paid at all and that sort of thing. it would not look for good for the president of the united states to be jetting off to his palatial estate in sunny florida. that's one thing the white house had in mind during the shutdown. the second thing is that presidents are president wherever they go. they travel with a scaled-down staff, all the communications equipment they need to do the job, to get on the phone with whatever foreign leader or national security official they need to, to handle whatever comes up. yes, there have been complaints that he's traveling too much. if you compare to barack obama, obama didn't have a second home. he basically only traveled during christmas. he went back home to hawaii for 2, 2 1/2 weeks. during the summer, he'd go to martha's vineyard for ab

in the privatized housing. as mcdill it was the ceiling wasn't done right on the ventilation an air-conditioning systems. so they're having to seal all of those things. we know we have four bases where there are significant problems in construction, so there were construction deficiencies. we've actually -- we already have contracts under way that will complete within the next eight to 18 months depending on the base. we've got several bases where we know that's an issue. we also have other bases where things are going pretty well. often it comes down to local leadership and making sure that if there is a problem, that it is elevated and addressed between the companies and the air force. >> while we're talking about personnel, you recently announced the deploy or get out policy. can you ex-plin to the audience what thinking is behind that and what you expect it to do to forces? ms. wilson: a little less than a year ago, the department of defense gave a new department of defense instruction on deployability. and

that is what businesses are asking us in this house to do an white house to come together and support a deal. >> thank you. will the minister explain why councils like berry with less brownfield land available cannot use the most recent independent figures on household projections to determine local housing need, the most precious greenbelt saved from development. >> there have been new tests of housing need recently introduced and those are designed to reflect the fact that under successive governments of political parties we as a country have been building fewer new homes and our country and our younger generation now need and i can say to the honorable gentlemen representing one part of the country with the fastest housebuilding rates anywhere in england, this is a social justice challenge we have to face up to but the national planning policy contained very strong tests to protect against inappropriate development in the greenbelt and the government will stand by that approach. >> lucy allen. >> last week it was announced the most conservative and women and children are going to -

the house simply isn't going to accept no deal and the quicker the leader of the house accepts that, the better we all will be. and with 36 days left until we leave the eu, with its —— the government is going to have to come back with its real meaningful vote. so, when will that be? i've certainly tried to make clear that the prime minister will bring back the meaningful vote just as soon as she feels she has accommodated the wishes of this house for the legally binding changes to the backstop that will mean that the prime minister's withdrawal agreement and political declaration can then be approved by this house. that is something that all members need to take incredibly seriously. it is not the government's policy to have a no—deal. it is the government's policy to have a good deal that works for the united kingdom and for our eu friends and neighbours. and should we agree to the meaningful vote and pass the meaningful vote, we will then swiftly be able to move to the withdrawal agreement bill and actually give certainty to citizens and businesses right across the united kin

this house was a special house. i see -- i live directly across the street and i've been looking at it ever since i've lived in my house. people walk up the street and marvel that this house survived. it was on an 80 foot lot, and a 20-foot section was cut in 1953 as per the case report. the palm tree on the next door lot is also going to be coming before you as a separate landmarking of the tree because it was original to the house -- i think it was built in 1869. people walk up the street. it's an amazing house, even on the inside. we have the owner of the house, miss geiling, who's been in the house since 1966, and against all odds, in the '60's and '70's, and the federal government came in, and we were supposed to be a redevelopment 2.0 area, she actually participated in the federally assisted code enforcement program known as face. it also created the landscape that we have in duboce triangle that many, many people including tour buses drive through the city and can't believe how lush it is. a couple of other t

reason that's what everyone claims this is the house we're in the point house has always been here since fifteen eighty nine so that's a long time and it reopened as a restaurant the way you see it now in eighteen ninety seven and i was just before that it was a brewery and it won this before and why is it so famous. on because it's always been here it has always played a big part in people's lives and the mention in movie that or next week that's gets them by their real locals here as regular customers yeah sure we have a file with everyone registered. or nearly everyone with a few latest there are thirty five hundred people and they're organized into one hundred twenty five regular meet ups that's runs perceive this dumb to understand the regulars have a special privilege here they can store their own beer mugs yeah i'm sure you know you're right the beer mug treasure chest was a once in a time when the one nine hundred seventy two olympics where here we used glasses to clearly show how much beer. was being poured into the evidence but our regulars said they wanted to hold on to their

all the houses here date from the middle ages and our list of buildings. and. a half what special about who. this is not to the architecture of course. is also like to add a bit of color. and we want to attract their attention we have lots of studios we want to try to make it more accessible so we make an effort to aerial installations and all these nations in one small space and it works beautifully and lots. of. you can also peek over the shoulders of local artists for example at the studio. of a painter and sculptor. also hosts many exhibitions. and. i say goodbye to him and head for my appointment with another artist she also has a studio on her in a vaulted building that's eight hundred years old. sells ham painted porcelain. pushkin the mailman maybe you could show me how it's done. you have to lace sure let's grab a piece. armed with a brush we take a porcelain lit the struggle to go has already outlined a design for me so now i'm going to try and paint it like a pro. and then gently with the tips of this number for so yes you have to try with the tip an

not a lot of housing. but the thing is that you have do work win the director of -- with the director of homelessness performing tucomo lum and you can look that up it's a jewish organization and i appreciate andy thornily for bringing this to you and maybe he can run the taxis because he's run compassionately and instead of pushing them to another street and keep folling them to another street and another street work on finding a space for them. find a spot instead of keep bringing the bans before you. it's constant. i've been following it for a long time and took a break because i usually drive tuesday nights and i need sleep but today i didn't get a lot of sleep so i'm not driving tonight. the thing is let's work on a solution and perform tucuno lum and i commend andy thornily again for showing compassion in this area. and let's work together. last thing, there's taxi drivers that sleep in their cars and cabs because they have no place to live. >> commissioner: thank you. >> clerk: maria shulman, david

the white house here, no snowflakes yet. about an hour from now you will see snow on the inside of the beltway. the blue shows you where it's snowing. the white is where we are getting a burst of heavy snow, you know north of richmond, that's that burst of moderate 12340e. >> that will be over the top during the morning rush hour. that's why the federal offices are all closed. the schools are closed for good reason. this will go northwards, during the morning hours to philadelphia, eventually new york city. it looks like a good evening commute. again the timing of everything, washington, d.c., about an hour from now. it looks like the heaviest is 6:00 a.m. to noon. the snow forecast is still around four-to-five inches. philadelphia less, around two-to-three for you. new york city three-to-four inches possible. a little less for hartford, boston, everyone is in kind of the two-to-three. you remember that snow event, people got stranded on the road, it's similar to that we could get three-to-four inches, right before the eveni

we trigger article 50, in fact this house 32 trigger it, we trigger article 50, in fact this house voted trigger it, that had a two year timeline, that ends on the 29th of march, we want to leave with a deal, and that is what we are working towards. but if she is working to leave next month, how will she get the legislation through parliament in time? just when you thought you'd heard every acronym going, up pops crag, the constitutional reform and governance act, a law that suggests any withdrawal agreement would have to be laid before parliament for 21 days before being voted on. there are just 26 sitting days before we're due to leave. time is very short. can the prime minister explain to the house how we are going to comply with the provisions of the constitutional reform and governance act section 20, if there is a deal? how we are going to implement the withdrawal agreement implementation bill and still leave on the 29th of march? theresa may said mps wouldn't necessarily need 21 days to study an agreement they'd already voted on. well we'll follow the normal procedure where we can

we believe that house. if percy and bad fail to stay current on their mortgage payments they will lose the bankruptcy protection and the home will go immediately into foreclosure. the growing up in the united states i learned that the first amendment is really key to being a good state freedom of the challenge is going to be done for men and women for the resources that are available but it's an al-jazeera story to me is that we just don't tell you what the subject of the story wants to know the government is not going to do the one thing the demonstrators want to apologize for that's what al-jazeera does we ask the questions so that we can get closer to the truth on the streets of greece anti immigrant violence is on the rise there or you have to go for. the sun that this is something and increasingly migrant farm workers of victims a vicious beating. is helping the pakistani community to find a voice the stories we don't often hear told by the people who live them undocumented and under attack this is zer

i worked in a white house. presidents are debriefed on all terror plots unless he's dispatched all of whiz white house advisers which, i didn't read in your paper. and he said it would be two hours from now. can you fill anything in on that for us? >> he said two hours would be the final briefing. i can't imagine a world that he didn't know this happened until he was just asked. and two points to button this up, one, joe digenova, just on that clip talking about war, was actually somebody trump nearly hired as his personal attorney in the mueller investigation, so keep that in mind. number two, if it weren't who hallie jackson asking those questions, we still wouldn't have heard anything from president trump. he did not voluntarily make this comment or condemn that action. he only said so in response to her question. so good on hallie for that. >> always good on hallie but especially good today. thank you for making those points, phil rucker, and thank you for spending so much of the hour with us. guys do whate

even house speaker nancy pelosi had some concerns. before the measure was introduced, she told politico the green dream or whatever they call it, nobody knows what it is. she later walked that back saying she welcomes it and any other climate change proposals. miguel marquez has more on what is in this plan. >> reporter: alexandria ocasio-cortez, the freshman democrat, is introducing the first piece of legislation that she herself has sponsored, it is a resolution which means it is nonbinding, called the green new deal. it calls for a ten year national mobilization, the goal, in one short decade to bring greenhouse gas emissions to zero, meet 100% of energy needs by renewable source, overhaul transportation systems, creative millions of high paying jobs, bring equality in health care and equal justice for underserved minority and impoverished communities. now, this new deal goes beyond climate change, way beyond. >> and so we're here to say that small incremental policy solutions are not enough. they can be part of a solution, but the

market rate housing. and as i heard, if i am correct, some of those displaced people are now supposed to appear here on-site. that somehow does not add up when you look at it, the numbers don't quite match. i think mr. medina's comments on house prices relative to the affordability prices couldn't be said better. we talk about housing prices and lack of housing every week, however, the distinctive attributes of what type of housing is missing is missing in that discussion. i'd like to speak about myself. i've sat on this planning commission for a number of years, and this commission has strongly helped shape the -- what's it called? the beast on bryant. it took a long, long time. it took many, many hearings, it took years of push back, and ultimately, the developer saw that there was a way. i do hope that when we take on the maximum -- monster in the mission, the planning commission looking at the eir and the plans as they evolve, that we have an ability to help thap shall project that is a win ---help sh

we need housing for all incomes. let's not forget about our working classes, and we should build it, basically. like i agree with the whole project. the project creates hundreds of jobs for people in the union, and i believe that's very important. and also about the whole shadow of the school thing, i was at one of the other meetings at another place, and they said they reduced the shadow, address well. i believe -- as well. i believe as long as we keep compromising, we'll come up with a better solution. >> president melgar: thank you. next speaker, please. >> good afternoon, madam chair, commissioners. my name is norma garcia. i am a proud mission district native. i work in the mission, and i love the mission. and i second everything that the opponents already said. i'm not going to repeat that. what i will tell you is this: my brother went to this high school. my brother is an auto mechanic. he was displaced from the mission. he cannot afford to come back. he is one of many people who fit this profile, and i don't

house of epresentatives.] the speaker pro tempore: everybody is here as a guest of the house and any manifestation of approval or disapproval of proceedings is the violation of the rules of the house. the speaker pro tempore: on this vote the yeas are 363, the nays are 62. 2/3 of those voting having responded in the affirmative, the rules are suspended. the bill is passed and, without objection, the motion to reconsider is laid on the table. the chair will remind all persons in the gallery that they're here as guests of the house, that any manifestation of approval or disapproval of the proceedings is in violation of the rules of the house. for what purpose does the gentleman from california -- i mean, from arizona seek recognition? mr. grijalva: thank you, mr. speaker. i send to the desk a concurrent resolution and ask unanimous consent for its immediate consideration by the house. the speaker pro tempore: the clerk will report the title of the concurrent resolution. the clerk: house concurrent resolution 21.

the open house program has three components. the first is they are mentoring across generation program. also known as m.a.g. volunteers are asked to make a one-year commitment and the matches are made based on the interest of both parties. the second component of their program is shortened is missky it's collaboration with little brothers and friends of the elderly. this collaborative will focus on reaching older adults and adults can disabilities who are isolated, frail and have limited social interactions or combination of these. they match two volunteers with a older adult or adult with disability to create a triad. when creating the triad, the collaborative partner will consider interest language preferences and other factors that maybe related -- that would help ensure successful matches. the last component of open house's program involves partnership with lyric. lyric is a lgbtq youth organization. open house and lyric have successfully hosted an intergenerational brunch that brings together the communities that they both

white house. >> that's the point, isn't it, mr. cohen? >> no, sir. >> yes, it is. >> no, sir. you wanted to work in the white house and you didn't get brought to the dance. >> i was extremely proud to be personal attorney of the united states of america. i did not want to go to the white house. i was offered jobs. i can tell you a story of mr. trump reaming out reince priebus because i had not taken a job where mr. trump wanted me to which was working with don mcgahn at the white house general counsel. >> i think the issue there is that one sentence. i did not want to go to the white house. all of our reporting suggests that's not true. >> after he said that i reached out to reince priebus and his comment was no comment. he said i'm not getting involved in this and we of course, witnessed this real time that this president probably more than any other, if you want somebody in the white house they're there. you know, reince priebus and john kelly probably didn't want omarosa to be oworking in the w

house, and together we will finish it. this is about the bonds between us as human beings. are manysaid, we parts, but one body. we are all diminished when one of us struggles. the problems we face are hard as they come and many cases, they are decades in the making. i truly believe we have the tools to solve them. we have the technology and the know-how, but most importantly, we have a generosity of our people. river the story --that registered nurse ice paradise, who was sitting in traffic, trying to escape the fire as flames started to take on his car. he thought, this was it. he recorded a video to his family. then, a miracle occurred. a bulldozer came out of nowhere and cleared the burning cars out of his path. at that point, he could have driven away as fast as possible. that's what a lot of us would have done. instead, he turned his car around and he drove straight to the hospital in the middle of the town where he worked in the icu. he and his colleagues started treating injured people, and in the hospital, on fire

republicans already dismissing at the white house. cohen saying he just wanted to protect the president which is why he lied before. >> an interesting three days ahead. manu, i appreciate you become in the courthouse live. the question is to what end here? michael cohen is prepared to testify that yes, he, michael cohen, committed crimes but that the president was his partner in some of these crimes while he was residing at 1600 pennsylvania avenue. that would open up new potential windows. number one, would it feed democratic calls for impeachment? you can say it was a campaign thing, it was a long time ago, it was the business world. what is the significance of the next few days? >> i think it depends who you are, number one. number two, there is a lot we don't know what michael cohen will bring to this testimony in terms of documentation to back up what he is going to say about potential criminal wrongdoing, which is what our reporting shows that he's planning on doing. if you're michael cohen, this is a chance to, i think, say, ye
