should the song oh, maryland, oh, maryland be changed? >> yeah, i like the tune but the lyrics leave a lot to be desired and a lot of people don't sing those lyrics. they start with maryland my maryland and then it kind of trails off after that, which is an indication while we like the tune we need to update the lyrics. we need to recognize the vestiges of an era that stained this country. and unfortunately defined its early history. and we're doing everything we can now to not make up for it. i mean that's just i think a very juvenile way to look at it. but more importantly to speak to it, and john meacham writes about this and talks about this a lot as he looks at history. it talks about those better moments, those better angels when we recognize what the call really is and we try to hold accountable to that in some way. so i think it's time to take a look at the maryland, you know, song as we should look at these things all across the country and follow the better angels when it comes to how we want to speak of ourselves going into the

the presiding officer: the senator from maryland. mr. van hollen: reserving the right to object, and i believe that we may have this worked out so there may not be an objection, but i just want to say a few words before i proceed with this unanimous consent request. as the gentleman from missouri said, he was on the floor of the senate last week proposing a senate resolution condemning the actions of china with respect to hong kong. and as i told him then and i say again now, i fully agree with his assessment. what the government of china is doing in hong kong is unacceptable. they are taking away the rights of the people in hong kong. they are snuffing out the freedoms that exist there right now. and since we were on the floor last week, the standing committee of the national peoples congress reportedly reviewed an initial draft of the national security law which has not been released. so even in this last week, they are moving forward in their process to take away the liberties of the people of hong kong. so time is of the essence. wha

in maryland. they'd have congressional representation in both chambers, with the exact effect of statehood. the move is simply unnecessary when ceding d.c. back to maryland is a viable, cost-effective, and common sense option. to further nullify this debate, the district of columbia requires a constitutional amendment to change. the framers of the constitution as have been said before were very clear about this. the supreme court reaffirmed this in 1949. so why are we trying to overturn the supreme court? one answer, politics. pure and simple. even setting aside the obvious need for a constitutional amendment, my colleagues across the aisle know that this legislation has no chance of becoming law. it's just a majority's attempt, again, to message bills to satisfy the base. let me be clear, republicans want no -- do not want to attempt to stifle voices or suppress representation. if the d.c. citizens want to have representation, then ceding the land back to maryland because i have demonstrated it i

we have more now from maryland. reporter: nobody thought the election would look like this a few months ago. andybody wearing masks, they have all the procedures in place to make sure people socially distance, only so money people can go in at one time. in maryland, normally you have to show up to vote, or in some cases you can ask for an absentee ballot. but the republican governor of the state sent out ballots to put much everyone in maryland who is a registered voter. a lot of people voted in advance. they have been dropping them in the box behind me. i cannot remember a time in recent memory where there was much -- this much traffic at a u.s. primary vote. it will be interesting to see when the numbers come out. i have been speaking to voters, democrats and republicans, and democrats say this handling of the crackdowns and peaceful protesters, that they are fired up even more, because they see the president is stoking racial tensions to make his base happy. at the same time i spoke with voters, and he said for h

let's get to former maryland state police officer. this video -- this is horrifying. 75 year-old. what do you think? >> it's alarming. 100% uncalled for. not in line with training. non-violent protest. an elderly man seems to be engaged in conversation with them. and he's pushed. one thing you have to realize as a police officer, you maybe able to push someone who is physically fit. every time you engage someone you have to assess not just what is occurring. you have to assess the person you're interacting with. that push in my opinion was deadly force. it was the use of deadly force. as you saw he stumbled backwards and hit his head. we know and we train when we use tazers. when you use it you have to know someone is capable of falling. they have no control over the body. it's very similar in this situation. you push him in the back ward motion. he has no way of controlling -- he doesn't know what's behind him. he can trip and fell to the ground and struck his head. >> he could have died from that. >> absolutely. >> you have had people die from -- >> in similar circumstances. yes

i wanted to say the senator from maryland i am newer to the senate and he has components of this bill that after the challenges in baltimore with the freddie gray you helped to lead and right and the same thing you're calling for to come out and say this idea that you will profile people because of their race or religion is anathema to the. very ideals of the constitution. it is so obvious when, on its face i've seen pulling upwards of 90% of republicans agree that weig should have people profiled based upon the race or religion, and that's one of the ideas of this bill. as we look at the common views of this budget you've you been fighting for this for years before for years. it's grateful, i'm grateful to b have your part of it and and i just want to be a blue say to the introduction to my senator and want to sit on the senate for and for theord, to senator durbin has been a partner of mine on criminal justice refor of policing and prisons and jails which i i swept up millions of americans and their families and their children is despicable that we are the land of the free and incar

host: gloria in maryland. armstrong williams, your response. guest: you know, the truth be told if president trump were not in the white house the situation would be no different. as i said it happened on all the watches of the president of united states. if you think that you want to blame this on president trump or past presidents or congress and all of a sudden this problem goes away it's much deeper. it's a problem we must face and deal with. how we view and how we treat our fellow man, even when no one else is watching. it's all about how we rear and teach our children and what they see we do is exactly what they become. and we must value humanity not because of what humanity looks like but because we're all created in the eyes of god. we may make different choices, grow up in different circumstances but just because someone has wealth or poverty doesn't mean they have character. character is developed over how you treat people, how you live, and the good that you do and the life and time it's given you. while it's easy to bring politician

maryland? gov. hogan: yeah mr. president, thank you very much, first of all i want to thank you for agreeing to our request on extending that title 32. it couldn't be more timely, talking about everybody calling up the national guard, and i couldn't agree more with all of the things that you've said. we had this experience in maryland 2015 when we had the riots in baltimore and we did exactly what you're recommending. the city police in baltimore were somewhat overwhelmed, but within a matter of hours, we sent in 4,000 members of the national guard and a thousand additional police officers. they outnumbered the protestors and immediately calmed down the violence after the first few hours, and then just allowed peaceful protest for the rest of the week. i think that's what's not happening in some of the cities and i agree with kind of 'peace through strength.' i think bringing up enough man power and not letting anybody be overpowered the way they have been the last few days is exactly the right thing. we have 1300

in fact, he was in maryland. a reporter knocked on his home and congressman engel answered the door. he lied to the constituents of this district saying he was going to be here, when he was not. >> let's give him a chance to respond. >> mr. bowman, that is so ridiculous on its face. i work in washington. marilyn is right across the river from washington. when i first got elected to congress, my children were young and i brought them down with me. now they are in their 20's and 30's and they are back in new york. i still have that house where i go and i go down to washington. i don't think anybody would begrudge me for going down to washington. i fought in the heroes act. i got $5 billion in funding for new york hospitals. that is five times more than any other state got. that is work that i did. it's so ridiculous. i live in riverdale. everybody knows i live in riverdale. i have lived there for a long time. i am sort of like the mayor of riverdale. it just goes to show how much you don't know the district because
