00:00:09JUST DEMOCRACY. UNFILTERED.
00:00:11EVERY DAY ON THE C-SPAN NETWORKS.
00:00:16NEXT, HOUSE DEMOCRATIC LEADER HAKEEM JEFFRIES, NEWS CONFERENCE, THE NEW YORK
00:00:19DEMOCRAT DISCUSS CONGRESS'S RETURN FROM AUGUST RECESS. >> IN HIS REMARKS, A LEADER
00:00:23CALLS ON HIS REPUBLICAN COLLEAGUES TO ACT TO REGULATE
00:00:26ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE AFTER RECENT WARNINGS FROM CURRENT AND
00:00:29FORMER EMPLOYEES WHO ARE WORKING ON THE TECHNOLOGY.
00:00:34THIS IS 20 MINUTES.
00:00:41IN WHICH I KNEW.
00:00:50>> I KNEW WHAT.
00:01:03WAS. IT?
00:01:07>> AFTERNOON, EVERYONE.
00:01:10>> AFFORDABILITY CRISIS IN THE
00:01:13UNITED STATES OF AMERICA IS NOT A HOAX. >> IT'S VERY REAL.
00:01:17LIFE IS FAR TOO EXPENSIVE IN THE
00:01:19UNITED STATES OF AMERICA.
00:01:21MILLIONS OF PEOPLE ARE WORKING
00:01:24HARD AND PLAYING BY THE RULES, BUT THEY CAN'T THRIVE AND CAN
00:01:27BARELY SURVIVE.
00:01:29THAT'S WHY HOUSE DEMOCRATS ARE
00:01:33CONTINUING TO WORK HARD AND FIGHT FOR AN AFFORDABLE AMERICA.
00:01:36SO WE CAN LOWER THE HIGH COST OF
00:01:41LIVING AND ENSURE THAT EVERYDAY
00:01:45AMERICANS CAN LIVE A GOOD LIFE IN AFFORDABLE LIFE AND A
00:01:49COMFORTABLE LIFE.
00:01:52EPSTEIN SCANDAL. THAT'S NOT A HOAX.
00:01:55AND THE EPSTEIN SURVIVORS
00:02:01DESERVE ACCOUNTABILITY AND
00:02:04TRANSPARENCY AND THAT'S WHY
00:02:05HOUSE DEMOCRAT ARE CONTINUING TO
00:02:09PUSH BACK AGGRESSIVELY AGAINST
00:02:13THE DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE'S ON
00:02:15GOING COVER UP OF THE EPSTEIN
00:02:21FILES.
00:02:21THE EXPLOSIVE OF GROWTH OF
00:02:26ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE AND THE
00:02:30CHALLENGES THAT ARE THERE AND
00:02:33PRESENTED THAT'S NOT A HOAX. IT'S VERY REAL.
00:02:37DESPITE WHAT DONALD TRUMP HAS TO
00:02:40SAY ABOUT THAT ISSUE AS WELL,
00:02:43AND IT REQUIRES DECISIVE
00:02:47CONGRESS NATIONAL ACTION
00:02:51IMMEDIATELY IN A MANNER CONSISTENT WITH WHAT SOME OF THE
00:02:54LEADING A.I. VOICES IN THE
00:02:56COUNTRY ARE NOW SAYING NEEDS TO
00:02:59HAPPEN AS IT RELATES TO SLOWING
00:03:02THINGS DOWN, TO PROTECT THE
00:03:07HEALTH, THE SAFETY AND THE WELL-BEING OF THE AMERICAN
00:03:11PEOPLE. THERE ARE 50 DAYS UNTIL THE
00:03:14AMERICAN PEOPLE WILL HAVE AN ABILITY TO MOVE THINGS IN THIS
00:03:18COUNTRY IN A DIFFERENT DIRECTION. WE HAVE A PRESIDENT RIGHT NOW
00:03:23UNINTERESTED IN SOLVING THE CHALLENGES CONFRONTING THE
00:03:26AMERICAN PEOPLE. INSTEAD, HE CONTINUES TO
00:03:32PUBLICLY AND BRAZENLY MAKE THE
00:03:36UNHINGED OBSERVATION THAT THESE
00:03:38CHALLENGES, INCLUDING THE AFFORDABILITY CRISIS AND THE
00:03:42SAFETY CONCERNS, RELAY IT TO
00:03:44ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE, ARE HOAXES. THEY ARE NOT.
00:03:49THEY ARE VERY REAL ISSUES.
00:03:52REPUBLICANS SHOULD STOP BURYING THEIR HEADS IN THE SAND.
00:03:55DEMOCRATS WILL NEVER MAKE THAT MISTAKE.
00:03:59QUESTION MR. LEADER, MR. LEADER,
00:04:03OBVIOUSLY, AS YOU JUST PRESENTED, THERE ARE CONCERNS
00:04:06ABOUT THE RAPID PACE OF DEVELOPMENT. >> I'M CURIOUS.
00:04:09I MEAN, CONGRESS IS SET TO LEAVE TOWN AT THE END OF THIS WEEK. SHOULD YOU ALL BE PROLONGING
00:04:13YOUR STAY HERE TO TRY TO PASS SOMETHING? AND WHAT REASONABLY DO YOU THINK
00:04:17CONGRESS CAN DO IN THE NEAR-TERM, GIVEN IT HAS BEEN
00:04:21YEARS OF PUBLICATIONS AND PAPERS AND THOUGHTS, BUT NEVER ACTUALLY
00:04:24LIKE LEGISLATION THAT'S GOTTEN ACROSS THE FINISH LINE? >> CONGRESS SHOULD NOT LEAVE
00:04:29TOWN UNTIL SOMETHING IS DONE
00:04:31DECISIVELY TO PROTECT THE SAFETY
00:04:34AND THE WELL-BEING OF THE AMERICAN PEOPLE IN THE FACE OF
00:04:38GROWING CONCERNS BEING RAISED BY
00:04:40EXPERTS WITHIN THE ARTIFICIAL
00:04:43INTELLIGENCE INDUSTRY ITSELF.
00:04:47IF REPUBLICANS HAVE COMPLETELY
00:04:50ABANDONED THEIR RESPONSIBILITY
00:04:52TO LEGISLATE AND ENGAGE IN
00:04:54PUBLIC POLICY EFFORTS IN A RESPONSIBLE FASHION IN THE AREA
00:04:58OF ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE.
00:05:01THERE WAS A BYPASS PARTIZAN TASK
00:05:05FORCE IN THE LAST CONGRESS THAT
00:05:09BEGAN AS A PARTNERSHIP BETWEEN THEN-SPEAKER KEVIN MCCARTHY AND
00:05:13MYSELF, 12 DEMOCRATS AND 12
00:05:16REPUBLICANS TO SERIOUSLY ENGAGE AND UNDERSTANDING THE
00:05:22OPPORTUNITIES AND CHALLENGES
00:05:24PRESENTED BY AI AND THEN
00:05:26RECOMMENDING A PATH FORWARD.
00:05:29REPUBLICANS IN THIS CONGRESS AT
00:05:31THE DIRECTION OF DONALD TRUMP,
00:05:34DETONATED THAT BIPARTISAN EFFORT.
00:05:39AND IN DANGEROUS THE HEALTH AND
00:05:42THE SAFETY AND THE WELL-BEING OF THE AMERICAN PEOPLE IN DOING SO.
00:05:46THAT'S WHY DEMOCRATS ARE ON OUR OWN.
00:05:50LAST DECEMBER STARTED A
00:05:53COMMISSION ON ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE AND THE INNOVATION
00:05:57ECONOMY. SO WE CAN DO TWO THINGS.
00:05:59ONE, WE WANT TO ENSURE THAT
00:06:03AMERICAN ENTREPRENEURS AND COMPANIES CAN CONTINUE TO LEAD
00:06:07IN THIS SPACE AND NOT BE
00:06:11OVERCOME BY THE CHINESE COMMUNIST PARTY.
00:06:14BUT ON THE OTHER HAND, WE'VE GOT TO ENSURE THAT THE AMERICAN
00:06:18PEOPLE ACTUALLY EXPERIENCE THE BENEFITS OF ARTIFICIAL
00:06:23INTELLIGENCE WITHOUT BEING
00:06:25SUBJECTED TO THE VERY REAL AND
00:06:27VERY GRAVE AND VERY DANGEROUS
00:06:31DOWNSIDES OF THEIR. >> GOOD AFTERNOON. THANK YOU.
00:06:35ARE DEMOCRATS CONCERNED ABOUT GIVING TOO MUCH POWER TO
00:06:38PRESIDENT TRUMP WITH THIS RUSSIA SANCTIONS BILL? IS THAT WHY THERE'S SOME OPPOSITION ON YOUR SIDE?
00:06:42>> IN A VARIETY OF DIFFERENT CONCERNS THAT HAVE BEEN RAISED
00:06:45WITH RESPECT TO THE SO-CALLED
00:06:47RUSSIAN SANCTIONS BILL AND THAT
00:06:49HAVE BEEN PUBLICLY ARTICULATED
00:06:52BY GREG MEEKS, BY RICHARD NEAL, AND BY LINDA SANCHEZ.
00:06:55I SHARE MANY OF THOSE CONCERNS.
00:06:59AND IF THE ADMINISTRATION IS SERIOUS ABOUT GETTING SOMETHING
00:07:02DONE, THEN I WOULD SUGGEST TO
00:07:05THEM THAT THEY DON'T ADOPT THE MY WAY OR THE HIGHWAY APPROACH
00:07:07THAT HAS FAILED THE AMERICAN PEOPLE THROUGHOUT THE ENTIRETY
00:07:11OF THIS CONGRESS SIT DOWN AND
00:07:15HAVE A CONVERSATION WITH SOON TO BE CHAIRMAN MEEKS AND SOON TO BE
00:07:19CHAIRMAN NEIL ALONG WITH LINDA
00:07:23SANCHEZ, WHO'S THE TOP DEMOCRAT
00:07:23ON THE TRADE SUBCOMMITTEE, ALONG
00:07:27WITH STENY HOYER AND OTHERS WHO
00:07:29HAVE IDEAS ABOUT HOW TO REACH A
00:07:33BI PARTIZAN RESOLUTION, GET THIS
00:07:35PAST 8612, NEXT DOOR. THAT'S THE SENATE, NOT THE HOUSE.
00:07:38WILL YOU VOTE FOR IT? I HAVEN'T TAKEN A POSITION ON THE BILL YET.
00:07:42WE'RE WORKING ON GETTING THROUGH THE RULE FIRST. >> SO WHAT DO YOU THINK ABOUT
00:07:46THE DATA CENTER BILL THAT WE THINK COULD ALSO COURT THIS WEEK AND PERHAPS IN OTHER WORDS,
00:07:50POWERS RESOLUTION, THE DATA CENTER LEGISLATION, WHICH WOULD
00:07:54ENABLE STATES TO BE ABLE TO TAKE
00:07:57STEPS NECESSARY TO TRY TO
00:07:59PROTECT RATEPAYERS AND CONSUMERS
00:08:03IN THOSE STATES IS AN APPROPRIATE STEP FORWARD.
00:08:05>> I COMMEND CONGRESSWOMAN CATHY CASTOR FOR ADVANCING THIS
00:08:11LEGISLATION IN A BIPARTISAN WAY.
00:08:13IT WAS UNANIMOUSLY ADOPTED BY THE ENERGY AND COMMERCE COMMITTEE.
00:08:17IT'S A STEP FORWARD MORE CLEARLY
00:08:19NEEDS TO BE DONE. >> MR. LEADER, THANK YOU.
00:08:23AS YOU CORRECTLY POINTED OUT, THERE HAS BEEN A LOT OF GROUND
00:08:27WORK DONE ON A I LEGISLATION
00:08:29TRYING TO MOVE THAT FORWARD, GOING BACK TO 2023.
00:08:32YOU MENTIONED THE TASK FORCE WOULD COME, MCCARTHY IF
00:08:36DEMOCRATS DO, IN FACT, TAKE BACK
00:08:39THE HOUSE IN NOVEMBER.
00:08:41WHAT ARE THE FIRST THINGS, THE FIRST PRIORITIES THAT DEMOCRAT
00:08:45WILL DO ON ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE? >> WELL, WE'RE FOCUSED RIGHT NOW
00:08:49ON HAVING THOSE CONVERSATIONS.
00:08:54THE COMMISSION ON AI AND
00:08:56INNOVATION ECONOMY IS GOING TO ARTICULATE A SERIES OF
00:09:00RECOMMENDATIONS TO US BEGINNING THIS WEEK.
00:09:04I WILL ALSO CONTINUE TO ENGAGE WITH THE THOUGHT LEADERS
00:09:08THROUGHOUT THE CAUCUS ON THIS ISSUE, INCLUDING FRANK PALLONE
00:09:12AND ZOE LOFGREN.
00:09:14EVERYBODY RECOGNIZES THAT
00:09:16DECISIVE ACTION IS NECESSARY TO
00:09:18PROTECT THE AMERICAN PEOPLE AND ENSURE THAT THE AMERICAN PEOPLE
00:09:21CAN ACTUALLY BENEFIT FROM THIS TRANSFORMATIONAL TECHNOLOGY IN
00:09:27AREAS INCLUDING IMPROVE BRING
00:09:30HEALTH CARE OUTCOMES
00:09:32DRAMATICALLY, OR THE OPPORTUNITY
00:09:34TO BRING EDUCATIONAL EXCELLENCE
00:09:38TO TRADITIONALLY UNDER-RESOURCED COMMUNITIES OR TO PROMOTE
00:09:42ENTREPRENEURSHIP. THESE ARE IMPORTANT THINGS. WE WANT TO MAKE SURE THE
00:09:45AMERICAN PEOPLE CAN GET THE BENEFITS OF THIS
00:09:49TRANSFORMATIONAL TECHNOLOGY, BUT
00:09:51DON'T EXPERIENCE THE VERY
00:09:55POTENTIALLY GRAVE DOWNSIDES. SO THOSE CONVERSATIONS ARE
00:09:59ONGOING, BUT WE CAN'T WAIT TILL THE NEXT CONGRESS.
00:10:02WE NEED TO ACT NOW.
00:10:03AS MANY PEOPLE WITHIN THE
00:10:07INDUSTRY HAVE NOW PUBLICLY URGED
00:10:10US TO DO, THE GIVEN THE URGENCY THAT YOU JUST REFERRED TO, IS
00:10:14THERE ANY LEGISLATION, BIPARTISAN OR PARTIZAN, THAT YOU
00:10:17CAN PINPOINT RIGHT NOW THAT ADDRESSES SOME OF THE CONCERNS
00:10:20THAT WE'RE SEEING EXPLAINED BY A
00:10:22VARIETY OF DIFFERENT PEOPLE WHO'VE BEEN WORKING ON
00:10:25LEGISLATIVE INITIATIVES? LORI TRAHAN HAS BEEN WORKING ON THIS ISSUE IN TERMS OF SOME OF
00:10:29THE CONCERNS THAT HAVE BEEN RAISED. THERE ARE MANY OTHERS, AGAIN,
00:10:32I'LL HAVE A CONVERSATION WITH CONGRESSMAN JOSH GOTTHEIMER,
00:10:36CONGRESSWOMAN VAL FOUSHEE, AND
00:10:38VICE CHAIR TED LIEU THIS WEEK
00:10:41WHERE THEY WILL BE ADVANCING
00:10:43SOME RECOMMENDATIONS ABOUT
00:10:45DECISIVE LEGISLATIVE ACTIONS
00:10:47THAT CAN BE TAKEN.
00:10:50THAT I THINK LIKE MOST LEADER AT
00:10:544:00, SENATOR TED CRUZ WILL BE HOSTING A PRESS CONFERENCE WITH
00:10:58FOOTBALL COACHES AND STUDENT ATHLETES IN SUPPORT OF THE COLLEGE SPORTS ACT.
00:11:02>> THEY'LL BE TAKING A PROCEDURAL VOTE NEXT WEEK AFTER YOU ALL ARE SCHEDULED TO BE GONE
00:11:06BY. DOESN'T SEEM LIKE EVEN IF IT DOES END UP ADVANCING IN THE
00:11:08SENATE, THAT ANYTHING WILL HAPPEN FOR THE LAME DUCK? >> WELL, I THINK NOTHING GETS
00:11:13DONE. >> THIS CONGRESS, YOU, THE ACP
00:11:16LABOR LEADERS HAVE ALL KINDS OF ARTICULATED WHY YOU OPPOSED THIS
00:11:20PARTICULAR LEGISLATION. YOU ALL OPPOSED THE THE SCORE ACT IS COLLEGE SPORTS REGULATION.
00:11:24AND I ALL THESE ISSUES THAT ARE BEING TALKED ABOUT.
00:11:28IS THAT GOING TO BE A PRIORITY FOR DEMOCRATS IN THE NEXT CONGRESS?
00:11:30AND IF SO, WHERE DOES IT FIT IN IN THE BROADER AGENDA OF ALL OF THE OTHER THINGS THAT YOU'VE
00:11:34SPOKEN ABOUT? >> WELL, IT'S AN ISSUE THAT NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED, BUT IT HAS TO BE ADDRESSED IN A
00:11:38RESPONSIBLE WAY.
00:11:40AND THE CONCERNS THAT HAVE.
00:11:55BEEN RAISED, INCLUDING BY THE ACP, THE CONGRESSIONAL BLACK CAUCUS, THE AFL-CIO, THE NFL PLAYERS ASSOCIATION AND MANY OTHER ORGANIZATIONS ON BEHALF OF
00:11:59COLLEGE ATHLETES ARE CREDIBLE CONCERNS AND I THINK ARE GOING TO BE AN IMPORTANT PART OF
00:12:03ALLOWING THE CONGRESS TO
00:12:05ACTUALLY GET TO A RESOLUTION THAT IS BOTH COMPREHENSIVE AND
00:12:09BIPARTISAN IN.
00:12:13THE LAST FEW WEEKS, BOTH IN YOUR
00:12:15DISTRICT AND ACROSS THE COUNTRY.
00:12:17>> WHAT HAVE YOU BEEN HEARING
00:12:20ABOUT VOTERS CONCERNS ABOUT A, WE KNOW THAT THEY'RE WORRIED
00:12:22ABOUT DATA CENTERS, BUT BEYOND THAT, WHAT ARE YOU HEARING?
00:12:26WELL, THERE'S GROWING CONCERN ABOUT HOW THE THE EXPLOSIVE
00:12:31GROWTH OF ARTIFICIAL
00:12:32INTELLIGENCE IS GOING TO IMPACT
00:12:35THE QUALITY OF LIFE OF EVERYDAY AMERICANS OR THEIR HEALTH, THEIR
00:12:39SAFETY AND WELL-BEING OF THEIR
00:12:42FAMILIES, THEIR COMMUNITIES, OR
00:12:44PERHAPS EVEN HUMANITY ITSELF.
00:12:46>> THESE ARE INCREDIBLY SERIOUS ISSUES.
00:12:50THEY ARE RAISED BY PEOPLE ALL
00:12:51ACROSS THE COUNTRY AND WE NEED
00:12:54TO ACT SERIOUS FULLY.
00:12:57AND I URGE MY REPUBLICAN COLLEAGUES TO STOP BURYING THEIR
00:13:01HEADS IN THE SAND. A LOT OF REPUBLICANS ALWAYS HAVE
00:13:05TO FOLLOW THE LEAD OF DONALD TRUMP. HE SAYS.
00:13:08THESE CONCERNS ARE A HOAX. CLEARLY, THEY ARE NOT A HOAX.
00:13:12THEY ARE VERY SERIOUS. HIS OWN FRIENDS LIKE ELON MUSK
00:13:18HAVE MADE CLEAR THAT THESE
00:13:20ISSUES CONNECTED TO ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE NEED TO BE DEALT
00:13:24WITH DECISIVELY. HIS OWN BOY ACKNOWLEDGES
00:13:29PUBLICLY THAT THIS NEEDS TO HAPPEN.
00:13:32AND SO HERE WE ARE AGAIN, WHERE
00:13:34HOUSE REPUBLICANS CONTINUE TO
00:13:36ACT LIKE NOTHING MORE THAN
00:13:38RECKLESS RUBBER STAMPS FOR
00:13:40DONALD TRUMP'S EXTREME AGENDA OR
00:13:43UNHINGED PERSPECTIVE.
00:13:45AS IS THE CASE RIGHT NOW WITH
00:13:47RESPECT TO CALLING THE CONCERNS RELATED TO ARTIFICIAL
00:13:51INTELLIGENCE A HOAX.
00:13:55SORRY, WHAT WOULD YOU SAY TO THE
00:13:57UKRAINIAN AUDIENCE, TO THE UKRAINIANS WHO ARE SUFFERING
00:14:00EVERY DAY A SHELLING AND
00:14:02EVERYDAY MISSILE TALKS, WHO ARE
00:14:04SAYING THAT THE DEMOCRATS IN THE
00:14:06HOUSE ARE GIVING HOSTAGE UKRAINE
00:14:08IN THIS POLITICAL BATTLE BETWEEN REPUBLICAN AND DEMOCRAT PARTY.
00:14:12>> GIVEN THAT DEMOCRATS
00:14:16SUPPORTED THE SANCTIONS IN
00:14:17RUSSIA, BILL, IN THE SENATE, WHY
00:14:20DEMOCRATS IN THE HOUSE DOESN'T
00:14:23WANT TO DO THE DEMOCRATS IN THE HOUSE, LED BY SPEAKER NANCY
00:14:27PELOSI, HAVE STOOD WITH THE UKRAINIAN PEOPLE FROM THE VERY
00:14:30BEGINNING, AND EVERY SINGLE
00:14:32LEGISLATIVE PACKAGE THAT HAS
00:14:35ADVANCED OUT OF THE CONGRESS TO
00:14:37SUPPORT THE BRAVERY AND COURAGE
00:14:39AND SOVEREIGNTY OF THE UKRAINIAN
00:14:42PEOPLE IS A DIRECT RESULT OF
00:14:45LEADERSHIP FROM EITHER PRESIDENT
00:14:49BIDEN, CONGRESSIONAL DEMOCRATS
00:14:51IN THE HOUSE, OR BOTH. >> AND THAT LEADERSHIP IS GOING
00:14:55TO CONTINUE.
00:14:58>> THANK YOU, MR. LEADER. YOU BROUGHT UP MANY OF THE
00:15:02CONCERNS THAT ARE RAISED BY THE CEOS THEMSELVES OF COMPANIES.
00:15:04AS YOU KNOW, SOMETIMES BUSINESSES WILL ASK THE
00:15:08GOVERNMENT TO REGULATE THEM IN ORDER TO PRICE THEIR COMPETITORS OUT OF THE MARKET. ARE YOU CONCERNED THAT WE'RE
00:15:12SEEING AN EFFORT AT REGULATORY CAPTURE HERE BY THESE CALLS FROM
00:15:15THE CEOS, THE FACT OF THE MATTER
00:15:19IS THAT IT IS CLEAR TO EVERYONE,
00:15:25STEP RATE AND APART FROM THE CONCERNS THAT HAVE BEEN RAISED
00:15:28BY CORPORATE LEADERS, THAT
00:15:31ACTION NEEDS TO BE TAKEN IN THE
00:15:33AIR SPACE IN A WIDE VARIETY OF AREAS, INCLUDING, OF COURSE, AS
00:15:38IS BEING DONE IN CONGRESS WITH
00:15:40RESPECT TO DATA CENTERS AND IN A
00:15:43WHOLE HOST OF OTHER DIFFERENT
00:15:45AREAS DRIVEN LARGELY BY CONCERNS
00:15:51ARE ARTICULATED BY THE AMERICAN
00:15:53PEOPLE THEMSELVES. >> THERE THERE'S A CONTESTED
00:15:57RACE BETWEEN JOHN AND BOBBY
00:15:59SCOTT ON EDUCATION WORKFORCE COMMITTEE.
00:16:02>> DO YOU HAVE ANY COMMENTS ON THIS RACE AND HAVE YOU SPOKEN TO ALL OF THOSE THAT HAVE SPOKEN TO
00:16:06BOTH OF THEM? >> THOSE CONVERSATIONS WILL REMAIN PRIVATE. WE'RE FOCUSED RIGHT NOW ON
00:16:10TAKING BACK CONTROL OF THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES ON NOVEMBER
00:16:15THIRD OR LATER. >> TOM HOMAN CONFIRMED OVER THE
00:16:17WEEKEND THAT DHS IS CRIMINALLY INVESTIGATING ILHAN OMAR FOR
00:16:21ALLEGED MERIT IN IMMIGRATION FRAUD. >> DO YOU SUPPORT THAT
00:16:25INVESTIGATION? AND IF SHE DID MARRY HER BROTHER TO COMMIT FRAUD, WOULD YOU CALL
00:16:29FOR HER RESIGNATION AND DEPORTATION? >> THAT'S NOT A CREDIBLE INVESTIGATION.
00:16:32THESE ISSUES HAVE REPEATEDLY BEEN RAISED BY FAR RIGHT
00:16:38PROVOCATEUR OTHERS WHO HAVE NO INTEREST IN THE TRUTH OR SIMPLY
00:16:42TRYING TO UNDERMINE THE CONGRESSWOMAN AND PREVENT HER
00:16:45FROM BEING ABLE TO ACTUALLY SERVE THE PEOPLE SHE ABLY
00:16:49REPRESENTS IN MINNESOTA.
00:16:51THANK YOU. >> TWO QUESTIONS. MY EMAIL. >> THE FIRST ONE, SAY THE
00:16:56PRESIDENT, SPEAKER JOHNSON, HAVE COME OUT SAYING THEIR CONCERNED
00:16:58ABOUT THE OVERREGULATION OF AI.
00:17:00>> IF CONGRESS ACTS VERY
00:17:03QUICKLY, IS THAT A CONCERN YOU SHARE OR IS THERE A WAY AROUND
00:17:07THAT. AND SECONDLY, WHO WENT BACK TO THE COLLEGE SPORTS IS THE
00:17:11DEMOCRATIC CAUCUS GOING TO BE UNITED IN TERMS OF HOW THEY VOTE
00:17:14ON THAT OR THAT SORT OF HOW PEOPLE SEE FIT AND UNDERSTANDING
00:17:17THAT THE CBC, THE PROTECT COLLEGE SPORTS ACT RIGHT NOW
00:17:21HASN'T EVEN GONE THROUGH THE SENATE. >> SO IT'S PREMATURE FOR US TO
00:17:23EVEN HAVE A CONVERSATION WITHIN THE DEMOCRATIC CAUCUS. I KNOW THEY WERE STRONG
00:17:27OPPOSITION TO THE LEGISLATIVE
00:17:31BILL THAT WAS INITIALLY UNDER CONSIDERATION IN THE HOUSE,
00:17:34WHICH IS WHY REPUBLICANS WERE FORCED TO PULL IT DOWN.
00:17:38>> AND THEN THE FIRST ONE ON ON. IS THERE ARE YOU SHARE A CONCERN
00:17:41OF OVERREGULATION IF CONGRESS ACTS TOO QUICKLY OR IS THAT NOT
00:17:45DONALD TRUMP AND MIKE JOHNSON AREN'T INTERESTED IN GUARDRAILS,
00:17:49THEY'RE NOT REALLY CONCERNED ABOUT OVERREGULATE THEY WANT NO
00:17:53REGULATION. >> AND THAT'S THE HEIGHT OF
00:17:55IRRESPONSIBILITY FOR DEMOCRATS BEING INCLUDED IN THESE
00:17:59DISCUSSIONS WITH CEOS, THAT IT SEEMS THAT SPEAKER JOHNSON IS
00:18:01TRYING TO SET UP.
00:18:03>> SPEAKER JOHNSON AND I HAVEN'T
00:18:05HAD A CONVERSATION ABOUT THE EVENTS THAT HAVE MOST RECENTLY
00:18:09UNFOLDED OVER THE LAST FEW DAYS.
00:18:12>> I INDEPENDENTLY AND DEMOCRATS
00:18:16INDEPENDENTLY HAVE CONVERSATIONS WITH STAKEHOLDERS IN THE
00:18:19INDUSTRY, INCLUDING SOME OF THE PEOPLE WHO MOST RECENTLY RAISED
00:18:23ALARMS LIKE DARIO.
00:18:27>> YOU SUPPORTIVE OF AN AI SELECT COMMITTEE THAT SOME HOUSE DEMOCRATS ARE CALLING FOR?
00:18:30>> WE'RE FOCUSED ON THE SUBSTANCE, NOT THE PROCESS.
00:18:34>> TO THAT POINT, RAND PAUL ON
00:18:37TODAY SAID THAT HE WAS AGAINST A HOUSE LIFE COMMITTEE.
00:18:40>> THERE ARE GOING TO BE A BROADER DISCUSSION IN THE CONGRESS THIS WEEK ABOUT WHETHER OR NOT WE'RE FOCUSED ON THE
00:18:46SUBSTANCE, NOT THE PROCESS. >> AND TO THE EXTENT THERE'S
00:18:48GOING TO BE ANY DISCUSSION IN
00:18:50ABOUT A SELECT COMMITTEE THAT DISCUSSION WILL TAKE PLACE AFTER
00:18:54NOVEMBER 3RD, NOT BEFORE. AND I'LL FOCUS RIGHT NOW IS ON
00:18:58DOING WHAT IS NECESSARY. SO WE CAN END THIS NATIONAL
00:19:02NIGHTMARE THAT DONALD TRUMP AND REPUBLICANS HAVE INFLICTED ON
00:19:05THE AMERICAN PEOPLE EVERY SINGLE POLICY DECISION THAT REPUBLICANS
00:19:08HAVE MADE HAS MADE LIFE MORE
00:19:12EXPENSIVE FOR THE AMERICAN PEOPLE.
00:19:15THE TRUMP TARIFFS HAVE INCREASED COSTS ON EVERYDAY AMERICANS BY
00:19:19THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS PER YEAR.
00:19:21THE RECKLESS AND COSTLY WAR OF
00:19:23CHOICE HAS INCREASED GAS PRICES
00:19:26ON EVERYDAY AMERICANS WHO ARE
00:19:28ALREADY SUFFERING AND DROWNING
00:19:32IN THE FAILED REPUBLICAN ECONOMY. THE ONE BIG UGLY BILL JAMMED
00:19:36DOWN THE THROATS OF THE AMERICAN PEOPLE BY DONALD TRUMP AND
00:19:40REPUBLICAN IS HAS MADE LIFE MORE
00:19:41EXPENSIVE BY RIPPING AWAY HEALTH
00:19:44COVERAGE FROM MILLION OF
00:19:48AMERICANS, AS WAS THE CASE WITH THE FACT THAT REPUBLICANS
00:19:51REFUSED TO EXTEND THE AFFORDABLE CARE ACT TAX CREDITS.
00:19:55REPUBLICAN CONTROL OF GOVERNMENT
00:19:58HAS BEEN A COMPLETE AND TOTAL DISASTER.
00:20:01THEY HAVE FAILED THE AMERICAN PEOPLE, WHICH IS WHY IN 50 DAYS,
00:20:06DEMOCRATS ARE GOING TO TAKE BACK CONTROL OF THE HOUSE AND REPRESENTATIVES.
00:20:08THANK YOU, EVERYONE.
00:20:15THANK YOU.
00:20:19>> I KNOW.
00:20:22>> YEAH, IT'S IMPORTANT TO PRESS
