Sen. Bentsen i think to have spent art of my life seeing some of the struggles in one of the Lowest Per Capita incomes in the United States and that is one of the reasons i worked so hard to assist on education. When i found the bankers in that area could not handle loans because some of the details and expense, cannot make a profit, i went down there and helped with a Nonprofit Organization to buy up those lines from them in and manage them and do it in a way in which they continue to make those loans.

Public knowledge. Im the director of ipk. I am happy to be here. Andrew and i were talking about the fact that academics spend many years writing good books. And are reluctant to celebrate. We publish our books and then we want to be criticized and even condemned by panels of smart people. Some lively conversation and debate, but a touch of celebration. Which is why there is wine and cheese outside. Participate in the event fully. We like to do a lot of book launches here. The real reason we are here tonight is because for the last several years ipks been doing a lot of programming and research on issues about climate and cities and sustainability. And so, this work, while historical, very much speaks to the most contemporary and emergent problems of our time. Were excited about the conversation tonight. So, to get things rolling, we have a journalist visiting at nyu, but also someone who has done a lot of work on environmental issues, contributed to npr and the atlantic. She will mode

The former senators that led this, this on their side have already communicated with the Senate Leadership but no strong reaction yet. The house side. But were hoping that at least someone listens to us because at this point were not aware of anyone who is put together a set of recommendations like this anywhere. So, if half of them are implemented that would beik a he success. If one or two, hey, great. Butge were realistic about this most of us who worked on this have
