Podcasts about house appropriations

It's Newsday Tuesday™ with the MR crew and we'll be digging into the Trump administration's deployment of federal troops to Los Angeles amid protests over ICE raids there. Pete Hegseth tries to justify why federal troops are in LA during a House Appropriations subcommittee hearing by pushing falsehoods about both the situation on the ground, the state and local response and federal policies involving the deployment of troops. Meanwhile, National Guardsmen are sleeping on the floor in their uniforms because the hap-hazard nature of this whole operation. California's governor Gavin Newsom for his part says he's going to be suing the Trump administration over it's actions and points out that because of these deployments other important efforts like fire safety are being compromised. Donald Trump says that Greta Thunberg should take anger management classes after her peaceful humanitarian flotilla to Gaza was detained in international waters by the Israeli military. Russell Brand, who is looking more ridiculous with each passing day, mocks Greta and is seemingly upset that unlike him she actually acts based on her convictions. In the Fun Half, Chuck Todd talks to Steve Bannon, who is openly questioning whether Elon Musk ever should have had classified clearances that aren't even granted to weapons contractors like Boeing and Lockheed Martin. Scott Galloway also gets in on the beat down on Musk, though he sort of misses the key point which is that Musk (or any individual for that matter) should hold that much power. And we check in on Ezra Klein, who's taken to the pages of his local paper the New York Times to further make the case for the Abundance Agenda. We also take some calls from listeners. Tune in!

Budget LandLast week was action-packed with House and Senate budgets dropping last Monday as we were preparing our Week 11 episode. Since then, both budgets have been heard and exec'd out of their fiscal committees, and the Senate budget bill SB 5167 was passed off the Senate and passed off the House floor as this episode was being prepared for publication. The House introduced a “striking amendment” that removed the contents of the Senate bill and replaced it with the contents of the House bill HB 1198. This conflict will form the basis of the remaining negotiations, which will probably mostly take place out of public view. See our comprehensive show notes for some great comparison tables provided by education advocacy groups.Bill LandOur two remaining education funding bills - SB 5192 for Materials, Supplies, and Operating Costs and SB 5263 for Special Education - are still waiting for a vote in the House Appropriations committee. Contact us at big3@rainydayrecess.orgSee our comprehensive show notesSupport the showContact us at hello@rainydayrecess.org.Rainy Day Recess music by Lester Mayo, logo by Cheryl Jenrow.

Will our education bills survive the House Appropriations committee? Senate bills 5192 (MSOC) and 5263 (Special Education) survived the Senate with enough umph to still be worth our advocacy. But now face the committee that previously slashed a $600 per student increase to just $5.55. We reveal which representatives hold the red pens, how to make your voice heard (e.g. sign in pro!) at the crucial March 19th hearing (watch here, 4pm Wednesday), and get real-world town hall advocacy wisdom from high schooler Rafael Brewer, who went toe-to-toe with legislators at the rowdy 43rd district town hall.

Kathy Russell is running against the Chair of House Appropriations, Bob Nicholas.  She has been the Executive Director of the Wyoming Republican Party for several years.  Her lineage dates back to before the American Revolution.  She has some very strong feelings about why she's running for office.  It's a great interview!

The MIRS team is joined by Bridge Detroit journalist Malachi Barrett and Adolph Mongo, a Detroit political commentator, to discuss how Detroit voters are feeling about the 2024 election cycle.  They zoom in on the Democratic rivalry between U.S. Rep. Shri Thanedar and challenger Adam Hollier in the 13th congressional district, as well as how Detroiters are reacting to the U.S. Senate and presidential races (1:20).  Additionally, state House Majority Floor Leader Abraham Aiyash, a Hamtramck Democrat, explains his decision to not pursue reelection as a state representative. He also illustrates his experiences while attending several university protests for a cease-fire in the Middle East (26:39).  Furthermore, MIRS speaks with state Sen. Thomas Albert, a Lowell Republican and past House Appropriations chair. He describes his top three biggest concerns with the developing state budget (44:44). 

After months of delay, this week House Speaker Mike Johnson advanced his much awaited version of the Ukraine, Israel, and Taiwan foreign aid package. Standing between that legislation and the House floor: two very powerful committees.  First, the House Appropriations Committee, which controls about a third of federal spending. And second, the Rules Committee, which controls access to the House floor, and which has become a problem for GOP leaders in this Congress. Johnson needed to pick the lock on both of these committees. And there is one Member of Congress who has chaired them both. Not just in the past year — but in the past month: Oklahoma Republican Tom Cole. Deep Dive host and Playbook co-author Ryan Lizza caught up with Cole on Thursday afternoon after he'd just testified in support of the foreign aid bill in front of his old committee.  They got deep into the weeds of why the Rules Committee has been such a trouble spot for recent GOP speakers; and they discussed Johnson's tenure so far and whether Cole thinks the Speaker can hang on as members threaten to oust him.  Cole also previewed how he will run the Appropriations Committee, including how he'll handle the controversial earmarks process. And Cole answered some prying questions from some of his favorite historians on the subject of Donald Trump. Ryan Lizza is a Playbook co-author for POLITICO. Tom Cole is the chair of the House Appropriations committee.  Kara Tabor is a producer for POLITICO audio.  Alex Keeney is a senior producer for POLITICO audio.

Rep. Andrew Clyde says that under the leadership of newly elected Speaker of the House Mike Johnson, House Republicans are in “a moment where we're not just changing the budgeting process but we're changing the entire trajectory of Congress.” Saying, in Johnson's first weeks of his Speakership, “we did something that Washington never expected and that was actually paying for something paying for Israel aid. Imagine that, taking $14.3 billion out of the out of an advanced appropriation to the IRS and diverting that money over to pay for that what we are sending to Israel to help them fight the terrorist organization, Hamas. I mean, Washington, lost their mind on that but it was a great first step.” Clyde says Congress will get the appropriations done by the fast approaching November 17 deadline, thought a continuing resolution for conferencing with Senate and with President Biden.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

The Biden administration's education secretary, Miguel Cardona, can't define what a woman is. During a House Appropriations subcommittee hearing yesterday, Cardona danced around the question when asked by Georgia Congressman Andrew Clyde. Riley Gaines slammed former NCAA swimmer Lia Thomas over his new video that pushes the Biden administration to allow transgender athletes to participate in female sports. During a congressional hearing on school choice, Oregon Democrat Suzanne Bonamici asked how students and families may be affected by private and religious schools, which are not subjected to the same federal civil rights laws that public schools are guided by. California is seeking to make it a misdemeanor to criticize teachers for teaching radical gender ideology to children. Texas has been secretly giving its citizens' incomes to the ATF. ATF Director Steve Dettelbach was asked a simple question on Tuesday about firearms but admitted he could not provide an answer.

The news of Texas covered today includes:Our Lone Star story of the day: It's all legislation today as the 88th Regular Session of the Texas Legislature is underway.Representative Carl Tepper talks with us about the evolving effort to strike “Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion” (DEI) political activity from our state colleges and universities. Tepper also discusses his efforts to reform extra-territorial jurisdiction (ETJ) abuse of landowners by Texas municipalities.Rep. Tepper also discusses his new experience on the House Appropriations committee and just how convoluted and complicated it is with federal and state dollars, formulas attached to all, and how it leads to the agencies not being able to answer basic questions on spending and related issues.Then we move to a discussion with Daniel Dew of the Pacific Legal Foundation and formerly of the Heritage Foundation. Dew talks about two Texas bills and how Texas should work to end “judicial deference to executive agencies.”In federal and state courts around the country, Americans often face an uneven playing field when they square off against executive agencies thanks to doctrines that require judges to rubber stamp agency interpretations of the law. Unfortunately, court doctrines favoring big government have leaked into Texas' state court system as well, but HB 1947 and HB1948 will ensure that Texans will have a fair shot in court.This is important for Texans because as it stands, courts are so infused with a systemic bias favoring government agencies that successful legal challenges are nearly impossible for every Texan. Likewise, rulemaking by unelected bureaucrats is a grave perversion of the government's checks-and-balances structure, and its correction is also long overdue.Our Lone Star story of the day is sponsored by Allied Compliance Services providing the best service in DOT, business and personal drug and alcohol testing since 1995.Listen on the radio, or station stream, at 5pm Central.

We are all too familiar with the cycle of gun violence in the United States. This year began with two horrific mass shootings in California. In January alone, there were 40 mass shootings in this country, with 60 deaths. Gun violence is now the leading cause of death among children in the United States. But one of the places where we've seen some actual progress is here in Washington State. In the last two sessions, we saw new laws on things like ghost guns, high-capacity* magazines, and open carry. And this year's session is proposing landmark legislation on things like banning assault weapons, allowing lawsuits against gun manufacturers, and requiring permits, waiting periods, and training for firearm ownership. Renee Hopkins, CEO of the Alliance for Gun Responsibility, joins us to discuss the legislation, and to talk about why she's hopeful that things are finally staring to shift on gun safety in this country. *In the interview, I mistakenly refer to high-capacity magazines as high-caliber magazines. Thanks to listener Gordon Glasgow for spotting this!
