Southern lawmakers in particular in a tough spot on the record on if they supported the flag by graves. The story quoting republican representative jody hice of georges saying this morning he plans to support the amendment. The amendment that is coming to the floor simply codifies existing law that has been in place for five years that allows the states to recognize historical significance on dates of their choosing while at the same time recognizing sensitivities that many have with the flag. While some republicans spoke about the Confederate Flag issue it was mostly the house to make rest that spoke on the floor. In a news briefing about it. Here is that briefing. Nancy pelosi good afternoon. Today we had action on the floor. I presented a privilege resolution that would have captured the action put forth two weeks ago. It was referred to the committee on House Administration never to be heard from again. That is intolerable. I put forth mr. Thompsons similar resolution and that was

To actual temperatures, two things are readily evident. First, temperatures have flat lined over the last 15 years, and secondly, an average of over 100 climate models from the last decade show that the Scientific Community did not predict this would happen. To my knowledge, not a single climate model ever predicted that a pause in Global Warming would ever occur. Senator sessions is going to go deeper into this. The truth completely contradicts the president s statement and begs the question as to why he and the epa not only continue to deny the truth but why it has raced to stop this information from disseminating into scientific record. What im referring to is the administrations effort with other nations to lobby the ipcc to back up the president s statement in the most recent report.
