Thanks to all of you for coming to the center for global job today for this discussion of tension the tension between i think that sound effect is appropriate when i say the tension. For the tension that might exist between the need to deliver humanitarian care when thereseh an outbreak as serious as the recent Ebola Outbreak, and the need to actually learn, learn what works to address thatre outbreak, especially in the case where the outbreak is of a disease which is emerging, for which at therapeutic does not exist and even a vaccine doesott not exist. Anin those cases the need forhe learning is really quite acute ear but how can that need for learning the accommodated when the humanitarian needs is son nd great . So our speakers today who will be addressing that point are the leaders of a team at the National Academy of science who produced a report just recently published on the topic of inflicting Clinical Trials during epidemics. Im going to turn over the podium now to the cochai
And congratulate steve, you have done an amazing job. Steve called me up the day after the election, might have been the same night to be honest with you. Maybe one minute. And he said id like to put together a group, world class heeders thats what he has done so good job, steve. A couple of things happened this morning. 227,000 jobs, great spirit in the country right now. So were very happy about that. Think that its going to continue big league. We are bringing back jobs and bringing down your taxes and getting read of regulation and exciting times ahead. Were going to be coming up with the tax bill very soon, healthcare bill even sooner, and its really working out. Sophie from the Cleveland Clinic has been helping with the veterans and we appreciate that. You have been amazing, and we really appreciate it. One of the things i heard this morning in watching the news was that amazingly its never happened before, that politics has become a much big are subject than the super bowl, were
Up until this point. Separated, 270 charges related to the production of child pornography, of firstdegree sexual offenses against these 23 children. The allegations, we heard them before, that Deonte Carraway had access to children as a voluntary teachers aide at judge Sylvania Elementary School in glenarden, and he used that access to get children alone in school, in the glenarden municipal building, and in some cases in their home, forcing them to perform sex acts on him and each other, many of them recorded on a number of cell phones that carraway owned or provided to the children. The evidence on those phones is evidence that will be used in these cases, and thats important, because according to the states attorney, since they have the children into court as witnesses.

The need to end our reliance on russian engines. We actually put our money where our mouth is. We added 133. 6 million on top of the 84. 4 million requested by the president to accelerate the development of the new rocket engine. 100 billion authorized by the Defense Authorization committee. So we are making certain that we are going to end this reliance on russian engines. The question is how we manage the space launch through several years of launches before we have that engine. We need to do it without jeopardizing our National Security. The general provision which i referred to allows for space launch competition in 2016 without regard to the source of an engine. It will permit real competition on four missions in 2016, and it will avoid trading one monopoly for another. I think ive explained how weve reached this point. I think there is good faith on i think there is good faith on i think theres good faith on both sides. I dont question the motives of the Senior Citizens in senato
