And pledged loyalty to. Lisa oddly, comey said, mateen claimed solidarity with several extreme organizations some of whom are enemies of isil. We can highly confident he was radicalized and some part through the internet. Lisa they are reconstructing his electronic devices. Its reported that the f. B. I.

Students are getting the education they deserve. This is a large problem. Nearly a nearly 100 schools in detroit Public Schools, 60 Charter Schools in and around the city, 18 Educational Achievement schools, several adjacent charter and school districts, yet parents cannot find the quality education they seek. One of the issues is detroit Public Schools are in debt. By this summer it will be over 515 million in debt. To achieve the needed academic outcomes Financial Stability and detroit Public Schools must be achieved. Going1100 per student is to debt service, and not to classrooms. Problem lets solve this problem and help the kids. Prompt legislative action is needed to minimize the fiscal impact on both detroit, and the rest of michigan. The time to act is now. And avoid Court Intervention that could cost all this much more and be more detrimental. I want to thank senator hanson for the legislation and the input of many legislators that they provided over the last several months. I
Also, i am looking for tour conversation about our primaries and what they all mean to us because in a few weeks well be in the midst of it all. One one of the real questions i think is whether it will be a rare instance where this is a form policy election or an election that is driven in a large part by Foreign Policy rather than domestic issues.

Pay lip service to the Elizabeth Warren wing of the party. Most ega donors most dga dono rs are corporate, moderate. Montana, even though it is a red state, barack obama lost. There is this populist streak, which is why they have had democratic governors, why jon tester was able to earn reelection. He is waiting to see where the party goes, and not necessarily pick a path. Do you think he is trying to draw a line between governors and washington, washington in general, which would mean democrats as well . Is that unusual for a Governors Association chairman . I do not think it is that unusual. He was careful when barack obama came up to distance himself from obama. And it is true, obama is going to be very popular in 2015.

Chairman nelson, Ranking Member collins and members of the committee, thank you for holding this hearing. And especially for the opportunity to testify about the future of the longterm policy. The perspective that im about to share comes from my work over the past 20 years of the office of management and budget as a person responsible for the Medicaid Budget.
