Account was 36 million below the president s budget request in the bill brought to the floor and amendments already passed by the house have resulted in further cuts to the departmental administration. Federal salaries for the Nuclear Security administration are 30 million below this president s request. The funding levels in this bill send a clear message about growth in the federal work force requiring an automatic 5 cut across the board is a step too far and as i said it is not good government. For these reasons, i oppose these amendments, urge my colleagues to vote against it. I would note that when the gentleman says during the Government Shutdown they furloughed 60 of the work force, that was 16 days. These employees were labeled as nonessential. Same thing happened in congress. I would suspect in your congress, at least i know in my office, we had to declare which employees were nonessential. Those employees now work for me again and are rehired. I suspect they are in your offic
Actions. The bottom line, the case could benefit 5,000 of the companys closest neighbors. Its important that we get a feel for what the actual communities around the plant look like. Reporter environmental attorney roche heads up a team that put together the federal case. Just last year, the epa told them you need to come up with a better plan to guard against sink hole snooze morgan and morgan filed the action on behalf of the homeowners dependent on wells for their only source of water. Were talking about chemicals going into the aquifer that is larger than all of the oil that was spilled in the deep water incident. Reporter the company hired a private company to test the wells. We had good water. We had a 80foot well. By a third party, outside company, not affiliated with mosaic every month for the next year.

Their homes as mandatory evacuations remain in effect. Anchor james tully is live there now. You found some people who are refusing to leave. Reporter i talked to a couple of people this morning that say their homes are within a couple of inches of taking on water and because they didnt they stuck around. I want to show you, you see somebody try to work through elfers parkway here. You can see the water flowing. There people can get home. Not so much here but some spots the current is so strong it can sweep you away. Further down the parkway, footage from yesterday, you can see water much higher, families forced to use canoes to get back and forth or wade through water that is not very clean. Many have gone through this before and that could be a reason mandatory evacuations are not enough to get them to vacate their property. There are people that live here, most of their lives. They know what the river does. Thats why a lot of people dont leave. Reporter fwc was patrolling yesterday
Regression and border some security. We welcome everyone to todays hearing entitled how the Crescent City became a sanctuary city. I will recognize myself, i want to make a statement, and the my friends california. I want to introduce the catalyst and then recognize panalists. I will then recognize you individually. As close as though other come to being a judge. Time and again, our nation has witnessed the tragic consequences of this administrations failure to enforce immigration law. Witnessing these tragedies is unsettling enough, but it pales in comparison to the degree of anguish and separation experienced by the families of those victimized. Were not here merely to discuss the failure to enforce the law, it is more disconcerting than that. We are here because the department of justice, supposed to be the chief enforcer of the law, is aiding and abetting local governments and the failure to enforce the law. Toe again, the temptation make a political point has transcended the oblig
I am the anger of a statewide morning show and it is my privilege to be the moderator. Im not just you keep time, but to ensure that each candidate equal time. It is the quality of the discussion that matters. I think you can all agree. Both candidates have spent time preparing for this debate, so its only fair that we allow them to do what they came here to do. We ask this large and supportive crowd to be supported. However, we are here to hear from the candidate. We ask that you refrain from disruptive behavior were anything that might distract from the candidates. They have a limited amount of time to address the issues and questions presented to them, so we want some respectful civility. We ask that you hold your applause until the end of the debate. In order to maximize the amount of time each candidate has to answer the questions. It is time to meet our candidates. [applause] moderator governor Steve Bullock was born and raised in montana.
