not only is michigan -- has michigan benefited from her efforts, but she's worked across the country to improve test scores and promote the highest level of academic achievement. she's committed to not only promoting strong schools, but has also worked on an individual basis, personally mentoring children and interacting with their parents. i have no doubt that betsy will continue to be a strong advocate for our children and that she will ensure that our education is as it should be, the greatest in the world. i yield back. . the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman yields back. for what purpose does the gentleman from maryland seek recognition? >> mr. speaker, i ask unanimous consent to address the house for one minute. the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman is recognized for one inute. >> mr. speaker, i rise on behalf of maryland's fourth congressional district to say the affordable care act works. mr. brown: it has improved the health of thousands of men, women and children in my district and reduced the level of uncompensated care in our hospitals. repealing the affordable care act

by the way, one other thing out of michigan, it was michigan who came to us and said, can you do something about lottery winners who can win a million and $2 million and still stay on medicaid the way the federal law is? the bureaucrats say you can't kick them off. we have waiting lists in america, jake, for disabled and frail seniors to get on medicaid. they've been supplanted by able bodied adults who have won lotteries. this makes no sense. these are things we're going to tackle. >> congressman, you'll come back ask talk about some of these other proposals you're bringing before your committee next week. thanks so much. coming up next concerns had in several states about a growing number of mumps cases. it isn't just kmil dren getting sick. where the disease is on the rise coming up. if you're searching other travel sites to find a better price... ...stop clicking around... the lowest prices on our hotels are always at hilton.com. so pay less and get more only at hilton.com. and they're absolutely right. they say that it's hot... when really, it's scorching. and while some may say the d

years, michigan has become america's wild wild west for for-profit schools. 80% of michigan's charter schools are for profit. give her her do. don't give her responsibility. here's why. when the action was to bolster underfunded public schools, she fought for a tax cut for the rich. when the action was to support public schools, she disparaged public education. option was to strengthen charters with real accountability, she fought for no accountability. casesountability, even in like the detroit charter schools the closed just days after deadline for getting state funding. they left students and their parents scrambling to find schools. the charter operator still profited. she has devoted millions to elect her friends and punish her enemies and at every critical moment, she has tried to take the public out of public education. what is the result of all this? declinederformance has across michigan. nearly half of its charter ofools rank among the bottom america's schools. just look at the investigation by the detroit free press which revealed rampant problems in the state for-profit ch

student performance has declined across michigan. nearly half of its charter schools rank among the bottom of america's schools. just look at the year-long investigation by the detroit free press, which revealed rampant problems in the states -- state's for-profit charter schools. corruption, cronyism, poor performance, and lack of accountability. hat's ms. devos' legacy. ack when i taught tameka and her colleagues and classmates at barton, clara barton high school in brooklyn they should say to me often, you can't just talk the talk. you got to walk the walk. or words to that effect. for a secretary of education, that means doing all you can to strengthen and improve public education. to do that, though, you have to first experience it. you have to be willing to walk the walk. as the former secretary of education in virginia and -- ann holton did, who is with us today. to that end, i extend both a challenge and an invitation to ms. devos. spend some time in public schools. there's no substitute for seeing firsthand what works in our

it is a big issue here in mccomb county michigan. famously known as the home of the reagan democrats. and a lot of folks who went obama in the last couple of elections went trump this time. we talked to folks about the main issue here. that's jobs. we went to a local cabinet manufacturer. of course there are lots of manufacturing plants including auto plants in this area. but talked about what people's hopes and dreams are. i had a chance to talk to them about something in the news today, the announce men by gm about more investment and more jobs in america. here's part of our conversation. >> well, the president-elect is taking credit for gm's announcement only today that they are going to, you know, create several thousand jobs, some, you know, in michigan, some in this community. do you give him credit, chris, for that? >> some of it will put off the public relations gap. i will also say this, i think he tends to create an environment where it's not going to be as easy to offshore things and there will be more accountable. >> jacq

number one, the for-profit charters in michigan, 80% of the charters in michigan are for-profit. they do terribly. 75% of the public schools do better than the for-profit charters. number two, it has hugely lowered michigan's standing education early in the country. so in 2003 before all of this started, michigan was about 21 or 22, 23. now they are 41 and 32 and reading and math. >> jenna: there is a lot to unpack there. let me take some questions for my viewers. >> thank you for letting me. >> jenna: no problem, we are trying to focus before the hearing to understand the questions she might be asked. if the charter schools she is advocating for so bad, why are parents lining up in order to get their kids into those charter schools and not opting for public education? >> they are not lining up in michigan for them. frankly, what has happened is in michigan, if you talk to parents in detroit, there are parents in washington, d.c., today to say don't do this. michigan has some of the worst charter schools in america, but the reason parents want a school is they want it to focus on

as far as i can tell detroit and michigan followed the opposite path. according to one analysis, the detroit public schools -- it's not easy to figure this out because there is so little accountability in michigan. 9% of the kids are proficient. the charter schools do better. 14% of the kids are proficient. i'll step up the charter schools are doing better. but that's horrible outcome for everybody involved. according to an education trust report the majority of charter schools in michigan performed worse than the detroit public schools when it came to 8th sphrim students math. nearly half ranked in the bottom square of tall schools statewide. we should have choice. but what you have learned in the last 20 years of this work in michigan that changed your find about what it is that kids need in america in the 21st century. too senator, thank you for that question. i look forward to correcting some of the record regarding detroit. i think it's important to put detroit in context. in 1950 there were 1.8 million people living in the city of detroit. today t

given everything obama did for michigan. given everything obama did for black folk, why didn't detroit come out as strong for hillary clinton? >> i think there's a disconnect between what a white house can do on the ground and what we feel connected to. that connection didn't happen. what they didn't do is they didn't build an organization to actually talk to people. >> but the reality is that the clinton campaign spent a lot of money on data, and they had big data that showed they were going to have a big victory on election night. >> i would say to that, data don't vote. i mean, i'm serious, man. if you don't build an organization that is based on relationship, understanding the issues, then you can model and data and statistic your way through a losing campaign. and that is exactly what happened with the clinton campaign. >> i think a lot of folk in the democratic party thought michigan is in the bag. you know, we have this blue wall. >> i tell people all the time. as a matter of fact i told hillary clinton to her face wh
