A National Press foundation bring together reporters who cover religion and they will talk about ideas for coverage of pope francis first trip to the United States. Some issues expect to be discussed today and some issues expect the pope to address while in the u. S. Poverty hunger, immigration, the environment and more. Live coverage here on cspan2. Id like to take just a minute to thank the sponsors for this event, the u. N. Foundation and the Aarp Foundation and to meet some other folks later on. With that i would turn it over to linda. Thank you sandy. We will move right into logistic. Im going to introduce helen osman, secretary of to make a shift of u. S. Catholic conference of bishops. She is coordinating Media Coverage around the visit pope francis next month which, of course, why w
So when we think about that from a poverty standpoint i think the visit is important and important to us for a dialogue. We have invested in at Aarp Foundation, for example, a program in l. A. Which is important us. Fundamentally its a food program called l. A. Kitchen but the premise is neither food nor people should go to waste. It is concept taking abundance of fresh food and growing amount of food waste in the country but of course in l. A. , packaging that in nutritious meals available to seniors. That it is a very multicultural population in l. A. What is interesting it is combined with a Job Training Program for either individuals who may be aged out of foster care system or those released from facilities. You have something . Yes. As some of you may know this is a significant issue in the more generally immigration arena.

For in finally fourth and finally, we must improve policing and the way we police our police. When i ran for mayor of baltimore in 1999, i was not endorsed by the fraternal order of police. In that election, i promise, for the protection of both our neighbors and Police Officers, that we together as a people would do a much better job of policing our police.

Beatook through whatever your covering to see how this plays out now on so many issues on capitol hill, not just ours, but others as well. Mr. Papademetriou the timing of visit need to pass budgets. We will try to do something, and so unless you begin to write s visit next week and keep frustrating editors, you should have an article each nextf your outlets for the 30, 40 days.

In philadelphia, the local papers, and new york, he will talk about all these issues in several places. Meetingork he will be with migrants an immigrant families. In philadelphia, he will give a speech in Independence Square on immigration. Before he gets down here, you folks will have an opportunity. O create a cr
Satellites and cause chaos here in the city of the heartland as president graham would you responders that an act of war are not . Heres the problem very as the threats of this country grow we are disarming ourselves. Ive never seen more threats particularly in the cyber arena so what is the response to cut the military budget and have the Smallest Army since 1940, the Smallest Navy since 1915 to neuter the f. The i cia and nsa at the time we need them the most revealing way we will prevent an attack on this country is hit them before they come here and ask to Hillary Clinton the last person in the world you want to send into the ring of the russians as Hillary Clinton. After the clintons ive been dealing with this for 20 years. I am fluent in clinton speak. You want to translate . When bill said i didnt have sex with that woman, he did.
