in 2011, the california innocent of tax force identified more than 27,000 california national guard cases that were potentially linked to the unethical management of the incentives program between 2004 234d 201 and 2011. with assistance from the national guard bureau, they established a soldier incentive assistance center to assist about california national guard member affected by the mismanagement of the incentives program. every california national guard soldier impacted received a formal written letter to inform them of this option. this center will continue to provide assistance to each affected soldier. as a result of the issues with the california incentives program, the army national guard took numerous steps to improve orphsight within our incentives process. the chief of the national guard bureau, then general craig mckinesley, ordered a review of all army national guard recruiting and retention incentives across all states, territories and the district of columbia which found no systemic fraud. in 2012, the army national guard completed the fielding of the guard incentive manag

don't call it california water. but the fact of the matter is this has not been looked at in any way. and whether it's the money, whether it's what it does to the fishery, no one has really looked -- there hasn't even been a hearing about this specific bill. i know your committee has looked at a lot of ways to help with the drought, and i want to compliment my friend from washington, senator cantwell and senator murkowski. you have come up with real ways to work with every stakeholder and not continue these absurd water wars where we take money away from a fishing industry that is a noble, historic fishing industry. tens of thousands of fishermen who support their families and giving it over to big agribusiness. that is not the way you want to approach the drought, senator. it's not the way i want to approach the drought. and i would never be party to picking a winner and a loser. this is not our job. our job is to, a, make sure there are ways through technology to get more water to the state, and work, all of us to

yes, california is saying that california is the most diverse place in the world. and that we want to have more minorities, more immigrants, more international connection. and essentially reject the values espoused by the confederacy and whatever state formed it texas vs. white which is the only federal supreme court case ever in america's to look at secession they said you can't do that but you can and this is the literal phrase in that court case that you won't see repeated in the news for whatever reason. i'm sure it's an accident is that states literally can leave through con sents of the states. consent of the states is in there. >> i think that's all true. i guess, in reading your materials, you say that basically it's an ideological move. this has accelerated since the' election of trump. you want to move out and make it utopia. immigration is one of the issues that you mentioned. would you open the southern border with mexico. why? and let all of central america, to the extent it already hasn't move to california? would you have any closed bshed at all and

of california. they want to break off and be in their own state called jefferson. they want to be jeffersonians. since donald trump was elected president, not hillary clinton, but donald trump, certain pockets of liberals in california have started to talk texas style by seceding. but they don't want to secede from california. they want california to secede from the united states. they're calling it calexit, like brexit but west coast lefty style. i don't think they actually would like to take the right wing jeffersonians when they seceded, but presumably that would be up for negotiation once the articles of confederacy are filed. the jeffersonians and everybody else in that huge state they are all lumped together in what is a definitely blue state, hillary clinton won california nearly 2-1. california in that same election also just elected the nation's second ever african-american female u.s. senator in camilla harris. they won't supermajorities in the california legislature. californians voted to

does california need to accept that? >> first of all, donald trump lost the state of california and lost the national popular vote. >> he won the presidential election in the system that we have. >> i understand that, but don't tell me that he has a mandate when the majority of american people -- >> mandate did not come out of my responding to the idea that he is -- >> but hold on -- [ everybody talking at once ] >> are you ever going to stopt ge stop defending the corruption out of- [ everybody talking at once ] >> state of california c contributes a lot more than that -- >> again, keep attack fly overstates. >> i'm not -- donald trump is the one attacking the states. he said that california and new york essentially don't count. that's why republicans -- >> that's not what he said at all. >> so ben, let me ask you this because the message from donald trump recently, he's been tweeting that i'll be the president for all this, is a message of unity. but his threat is california, no federal funding for any of these. is tha

i'm going to miss all of my california colleagues, including our southern california friendses, janice hahn and loretta sanchez but i want to focus the time i have on our northern california neighbors, starting with our grend friend, sam farr. a lot will be said now and long into the future about sam's incredible public service career. people will talk about his time in colombia and the peace corps, the six years that he spent on the monterey county board of supervisors, his 12 years in the state assembly, his nearly 23 years in congress . sam has been such a dedicated and passionate public servant, but it's not just the duration and the breadth of those offices, it's really the quality and the character of sam's service. sam was the founder of the house ocean's caucus and advocate for our coasts and oceans and how important they are to our economy. he laid the groundwork for a national policy that recognizes there are are tens of millions of jobs across this country that depend on healthy oceans. sam has helped all sorts of special places throughout his career especially in the centra

this is 90 pages. 90 pages called the california drought afnlg act. and this drought act -- picture the big vision here. for years the central valley of california has been a massive consumer of water for agriculture. now, we've had years of drought, and during those years that the central valley was massive consumer of water, they plant a lot of crops that consume a lot of water, crops like almonds and rice, there's massive loss to evaporation. but the agriculture community there wants to continue using the same crops even throughout the drought, so they're looking for ways to pull more water out of the northern california rivers and ship it to the central valley. now, why is this of concern? this is of concern because these rivers in the northern part of the state are key rivers for salmon, and if you drain these rivers to fulfill the water needs of the central valley, you do enormous harm to the salmon and to the salmon fishermen. now, the salmon, when they go downstream and head out to sea for five or six years, they swim north. they have a huge i

mint the state of california was 15 years old acquired in sight for the federal government in 1868 fifth and mission was an unlikely site two wars okay a lot of bars (laughter) a few schools and some hotels chosen for the sandy soils it can bear the weight of the magnificent foundation and construction was in 1869 and finished in 1874 of $4 million in 1974 and around this time really important events changed not only the course of the building but the course of history san francisco had quarters in 1865 and across i bay the big bonanza silver streets near carson city nevada and the great chicago fire yielded the fire proof technology and it is powerful to think of the hands that made it large pail freckles and many shades of brown that was truly a work of a lot of work and effort the mint was immediate scuffing in 1819 more than one million gold pieces valued at the $25 million were coincide since the new mint if you know where that is opened in 1937 this building searched for a future that will fill the volumes and restore it be the anchor true my pleasure to mark a new dawn for the uni

it helped to defend california. but then they were defending san diego but they weren't getting paid. so if you're not getting paid, what do you think is going to happen? yeah, so at night they would raid the restaurants, the cantina. they were finally evicted. anyway, all these things started happening. in the end, who won the war? the united states. so then -- i'm sorry, i'm skipping all that, because there is a lot to this. but then something happened up north. the southern fort. yes, gold was discovered in california. and then the third wave of encroachment, and this was a crucial wave of encroachment, because this was governed by greed. it truly was. and the people who came through, i mean, the things that happened, the atrocities that were committed, especially central and northern california, when we talk about the holocaust, there were 251 tribes in california prior to the gold rush. after a few years of the gold rush, there were only like 51 tribes. most of the tribes were just annihilated. i mean, what peo

it's limited to california. i'm from florida and reached out to our national guard as soon as i heard of this to just see where they thought that they were with any challenges with bonus recoupment with our national guard and we have about 12,000 in florida. i just want to confirm that you don't see any of these concerns in florida that have come to the attention of those here regarding california? >> well, specifically related to the fraud, we have given no guidance to any other state, district, or the territory of -- district of columbia or any territories to do any audits or inspections. as i said, through gems we always have ongoing recoupments for generally those that don't meet the term of their enlistment. so i can't talk specifically to florida and what is going on in florida but we have not directed any type of work and we've not discovered any type of systemic problem related to fraud that we are aware of. >> well, that answer kind of concerns me because i thought in the beginning you stated that there

i practiced in california but not exclusively in california. my clients are throughout the countryzv but certainly more ar on the west coast. so the trend setter was oregon and we have someone here from compassion and choices in it, you can also chat with him. so the first was called the act. it took effect in 1998÷ú and it was a voter initiative. and interestingly, the oregon law was actually considered by the united states supreme court becauseu! then attorney general ash kroft was trying to prosecute both pharmacies and physicians who were participating and that's the zv magic, participating -- who are participating under the oregon law. and the supreme court determined that the controlled÷ú substance act could not be used to delegit mate a state standard of health care, kind of a states right issue. i dent think the supreme court was interested in commenting on the substance of the law. but that kind of got it interesting. followed by that, was washington, also voter initiative, that took effect in 2009. vermont, 2013 andu! that was act

for the cases that had been identified to us by the california national guard. that included the cases that we had internal to defast where we're recruiting from their military pay as well as any voluntary repayments that were under way as well as any cases we turned over to the treasury for recruitment. and that would include the category of private collection agencies. also we took action to rescind any reporting to the credit bureau reportings. so those cases identified by the california national guard to us, those credit ratings have been restored as if that never occurred. >> thank you very much. >> this is the one thing i would like to add in terms of one week. there are a handful of cases that lag the one week only because we had trouble identifying the individual involved. we had mistaken social security numbers that we were trying to clean up as we went along. >> okay, thank you, ms. davis. >> thank you mr. chairman, thank you for being here. of all the attempts suggested and some in the legislation that you have been working on is there an area that yo

now the state capital of california. eventually, one of the previous lecturers, they have been moving into texas even though it was still in mexican territory. in the same way, and american settlers have moving into california even though it was next in territory. one of them set up a trading fort. and there it is, in the upper picture. very different than a shop. is aact that it is a fort sign of how politically volatile the area was. he was expecting to be robbed and attacked and so we took precautions against that. one of the things he wanted to sell was lumber. but the lumber would come from the foothills in the sierra mountains, east of sacramento. , ofso one of his assistants the american river, up to a place called for loma and asked him to design and build a mill. and this is the place where the american river is flowing fast enough that the water can turn a waterwheel and the water is attached to blades so the lumber could be brought there and then send further down the river to the fort itself. and one of the t

even in a state like california there was still drama. before the vote hundreds of protesters turned out the plea with electors to vote for someone, anyone besides donald trump. >> this is not a day that i say anything except never trump. >>reporter: voting got underway around 2:30 pm. the chamber held its breath as the secretary counted the ballots, not sure if one or more what has california systems by voting for someone other than clinton and kane. -- kaine. the secretary of state gave a big smile when the final numbers came in. so far no maverick has risk jail by voting against the results of the general election. today the presiding officer reminded us when california first became a state there were only four electors. today it took almost 2 hours for the voting to be complete. >> do we know if any of the other electors in any of the other states actually went against what they had taken an oath to? >>reporter: yes they have. in texas to trump electors refused to cast their vote for donald trump, instead for ron paul and john kasich.

in california. host: this is from bethlehem, pennsylvania. larry. caller: i would like to state that the united states was formed to form a union. in the union all people should be considered equally. irishmen fought every state should get one vote and the district of columbia should get one vote but after listening to the talk on the show i feel it would be better if every state got three votes and the district of columbia to three votes and that way they could be proportional. you have to win at least a third of the vote in order to get the proportion. i go back to the election with al gore. everyone says it was too close in florida. my answer to that is if al gore would have won his home state where people know him the best he would have been president. if you can't win 26% of the states -- 51% of the states, 25 states plus the district of columbia, you should not be president. mr. hulme: that's an interesting theory. basically taking the structure of the u.s. senate and transporting it to how th

glen price, superintendent, california department of education. there was an extension to the rfp. all respondents to the rfp were asked to respond to an rfp indicated that the max cap would be the 1%. also part of that process $100,000 allocated for start up cost for the entity that would become the fiscal agent for the contract. in regards to the turn around time, as a couple of wrinkles that we can dive more into. the $10 million original allocation, the 10.1 covers that and the 5.6 going on. it would do good for the department to do a no cost extension for march 17th and one possibility for you to then consider an rfp process for the additional work going forward. i don't know if you are following me on that, but that's one alternative that you might have. >> okay, thanks. >> on the issue of direct -- or indirect, do you want to cite some examples or indicate if there is a need for clarity. >> my understanding of direct and indirect cost rates, those are rates that all county offices in california have an approved rate and many organizations have audited indirect rates. indirec

the voters in california seem pretty happy we've been able to balance you are budgets and be able to grow our economy and at the same time, we have really enforced a strong equivalent eco system throughout san francisco but literally throughout the state and volunteers really doubled down on the efforts efforts in sacramento not only sent most of us back more democrats back but really saying they're proud of the leadership of what is really going on in sacramento i think as we go into uncharged waters and urban charntd teller territory a time we as californians should stay the course and do more of what we do more in san francisco more of what we're doing i recall the efforts about 20 years ago when willie brown, jr. as renovating city hall and how much criticism he got why is this so most money into a government building why really make sure that that building was renovated people called that a waste of money and really didn't see very much value what is interesting today you watch you know when i used to work another city hall i had to fight the tour buses to get if so many people

what do you see california's role going forward? >> this is a great state, and it is one of the most progressive states in america. and california can play in my view an extraordinarily important role in helping to lead this country in opposition to some of trump's disastrous ideas. california has and must continue to be a leader in climate change, a leader in saying to mr. trump, we're not going to suppress the vote but follow our model of getting more people to participate in the political process. i know the governor in this state. >> have you talked to him by the way? >> i have not talked to him yet. but i'm proud of the diversity of this state, that immigrants helped build this state and make it the great state it is. i know california will help lead the effort against trump's bigotry. so there's just an enormous role for a progressive state, for the largest state in our country to play. >> and yet there's, i think, despair among many democrats, among young people as well because the courts are -- >> we do not -- we've got to r
