new york city, most of new jersey are bright red. but so is virtually all of idaho, all of montana, the dakotas, wisconsin, minnesota. we forget how incredibly important immigration was with their children across the settlement of the united states. and today, of course, popular culture, and so when we talk about politics, we talk about both the immigrants and children of immigrants who are in politics. popular culture, of course, today celebrates the west indian kid who came to new york looking for a college education and instead ended up as the secretary of the treasury. meanwhile, while he's unlikely to have a broadway play after him, there's also the son of the west indian immigrants who went to public schools in new york, went to city college, and ended up being chairman of the joint chiefs of staff, and secretary of state. colin powell, of course, followed in the recent footsteps of many immigrants and their children who have ended up in presidential cabinets and their equivalent. indeed, in the last half century, there have been at least 20 immigrants and their children who

box, there is risks involved here. you you notice he did an interview to the new york times and he said we have to at an out of other nation's business and shouldn't shape the direction of turkey and a countries like that. turkey is a lynch pen of western and america foreign policy and what happens there matters to the united states. and if it is trending to a islamic dictatorship. if donald trump doesn't care about that and not worry about overseas. they are not mutually exclusive. yes, we deal with with issues at home and issues abroad. he needs to be careful to not sound like he doesn't know that. people will say he doesn't understand the presidency. the content and the tone is important. this has to be focused and disciplined. but it has to be positive. that's what analyst said so far today and any time a sitting president or candidate is trying to get people to vote for him. it is well to state your attention. and it makes sense and given the way he explained it, it is possible and this is someone who could do it. that needs to be a part of it. it also needs to be be a credibl

reserves. for what purpose does the gentleman from new york seek recognition? mr. serrano: i claim time in opposition. the chair: the gentleman is recognized. mr. serrano: i rise in opposition to this amendment. it would repeal the requirement that companies show just how much more the c.e.o. is paid compared to the company's median worker. why are republicans so scared about reporting this number? i imagine my republican colleagues will describe the alleged cost to industry. indeed industry has offered widely -- wildly exaggerated estimates of the s.e.c.'s initial proposal, 10 times with they -- what the s.e.c. economist arrived at. there's no indication that they've yet to come up with any credible estimate for the cost of the final rule. in fact new york one has. as the house financial services committee has failed to convene a hearing on the final rule and the flexibility provided by the s.e.c. worse, the committee has failed to hold a hearing on the bill itself. this congress, rather the republicans are rushing this bill through the house and once again seek to repeal outright this
