Hole in one like that you could not have scripted it any better. Another person having a great day is astronaut scott kelly. Back here in the gold old u. S. Of a touching down in houston reuniting with family and friends. Well have the latest on that just ahead. We do begin with that breaking news in the race for the white house. Mitt romney set to lufrn a major new attack in the gop establishments battle with donald trump as the candidates get readydy for another crucial debate tonight. Abcs tom llamas is on the scene in detroit where that debate will take place, good morning, tom. Reporter george, good morning to you. And i have a copy of mitt romneys speech right here. It is a blistering attack on donald trump. Hes going to deliver it in a few hours.

Many have talke
Ginsburg should be after november 3rd. If two more join them, they could potentially delay the process. Neither said specifically that they would oppose a Trump Nominee in a lameduck session if joe biden wins. Biden meanwhile, is causing on senators to honor ginsburgs dying wish not to replace her until after the election, and making an appeal to republicans to, quote, do whats right. Im not being naive. Im not speaking that President Trump will do whatever he wants. Im not speaking to Mitch Mcconnell who will do what he wants. Im speaking to those Senate Republicans who know deep down what is right for the country and consistent with the constitution. Senate majority leader Mitch Mcconnell is already vowing to bring whoever the president nominates to the senate floor for a vote. At a rally last night, President Trump said he intends to fill ginsburgs seat with a female justice and plans to do so quickly. So article ii of our constitution says the President Shall nominate justices of t
It was adopted in the past and the plan anticipate it in the future. If the future chose to make that amendment today then you would have to continue the item for one week and consider it again at the next meeting because any amendment to the ordinance requires a continuance. Okay. I guess i have two questions mr. Strong. One in terms of the content of this and number two with timing with the june ballot. Right, right. Yeah, this is something that we thought about before and i think i communicated it an email we believe its more appropriate for the board to place it in the ordinance than a recommendation to the Ballot Committee which is a completely separate process. I do so i dont know that i have a strong position on this one and one way or another and i am worried if could create confusion and be misleading. I realize the budget analyst put it in without specifying an amount and general but the capital plan talks about having a future bond for this so again im not sure it will answe
One and one way or another and i am worried if could create confusion and be misleading. I realize the budget analyst put it in without specifying an amount and general but the capital plan talks about having a future bond for this so again im not sure it will answer questions. I am worried it could create confusion. I believe there are other policies that we also dont have we talk for instance the tax policy of only issuing new bonds as old ones are retired. I would recommend if we do that we insert that language as well so it covers both. So thats my response to the first question. So let me dig on that a little bit. Sure. Because that was my concern as well and i dont mind more information. I think its a great thing for the voters. As far as bonds go things could change and i am skeptical talking about it being in the future. I understand the concept but my potential objection about it, where i might be scared about it there are a number of things to paint the complete picture here
Projects that were recommended in the 10 year capital plan and approved by the committee december 9. Its a continuation of the 2010 general Obligation Bond and again that bond you know, the big focus was the Public Safety building which got them out of the hall of justice and they will be colocated with a new fire station out at mission rock and third. The other components of that bond were neighborhood fire stations at 72 million. The emergency firefighter water system at 102 million, and we should mention that 81 of those proceeds have been expended and we expect we will be further along when the measure reaches the ballot. And then i should also we want to be clear the capital plan does look 10 years into the future so we do show a 2021 bond of 219 million. I mention that just so people are aware and we do expect that amount just like this amount back in 2010 will change, but we want to be clear there is a lot of need and we suspect there is an Overall Program that will come back to
