Like every country, we have adult siblings and adult parents. We put quotas by country. That result is, we dont have an immigration system that is strategic as it relates to possibilities of economic growth. We have a noble immigration system that is legal, that is fine. But i think we should narrow it down to what other countries have. We should create the first 500,000 first round draft picks, if you will. The people that will create Economic Opportunity for less. We will not get there until we are confident that the borders are enforced and that the rule of law is applied consistently. Governor, i am a veteran and work at the va in a venture. Last year, we heard about veterans not getting proper care. What is your mission to ensure that veterans get better care . Jeb bush do you have the same issue in manchester . We have never had a secret waitlist or anything. Im not saying it is a perfect facility, but we get positive remarks. Jeb bush know, it has been a serious problem. You kno
And you can send an email. The phone lines are open. You can start dialing in. Lets begin with the Foreign Relations Committee Hearing yesterday where secretary of the john kerry was asked about his reaction to the gop letter. [video clip] my reaction to the letter was utter disbelief. During my 29 years here in the senate, i never heard of nor even heard of it being proposed, anything comparable to this. If i had, i can guarantee you that no matter what the issue and no matter who was president , i would have certainly rejected it. No one is questioning anyones right to dissent. Any senator can go to the floor any day and raise any of the questions that were raised in that. But the right to the leaders in the middle of a negotiation, particularly the leader that they have criticized other people for even engaging with the writing to, to write them and suggest that theyre going to get a constitutional lesson which by the way was absolutely incorrect, was quite stunning. Host the secret
Challenges and we will continue to devote our available resources in this area. I would ask, and i know much of what you say has to be short if you had to itemize one or two or three action items we could work on resources are other tools you need to do your job what do you hope we would do . Caroline ciraolo Holding Hearings like today are critical to getting word out to the American Public. Our elected representatives taking the message back to their home state and making sure the information is out there as often and as loud as possible. Many of these scams can be stopped if the American Public is educated, and having a centralized locations for that information is a wonderful idea. It gives me hope that we will see further information in the future. Thank you. What should congress do . I echoed what she said. The scam is so simple couple we would never be able to prevent people from posing as another person. When money dries up, criminals will go away. Bringing them to justice and
That its showing not consistent with your previous secretary. But on the day her majesty is here for the commonwealth surface at westminister abbey, we should surely make it a position. Would you make that change before the general election . Would you consider doing that . No. Weve made a decision about flag flying this year. I know the number of people are disappointed with the commonwealth flag wasnt flying. But if we were to fly the commonwealth flag on Commonwealth Day i can promise you we will be inundated with requests to fly other flags and other emblems in support of articles as in other organizations. Are there any grounds for optimism about the u. N. Media towards the parties in libya . Yeah, i think there are some grounds. And when i meant the special representative, i have to be candid having listened to him. We have at least got people talking. We have people with a focus on a catalytic event. The growing presence of isil in libya, which is i think, no cussing the minds o
