If this wasnt in front of me and ready for signature, we would end up having projects all across the country that would be frozen after mid. On the other hand, we have now made it a habit where instead of fiveyear funding plans for transportation and instead of longterm approaches where we can actually strategize on what are the most important infrastructure projects, how are they getting paid for, providing certainty to government norors and mayors and localities about how they are going to approach Critical Infrastructure projects roads, bridges ports, airports instead we operate as if were we hand them out three months at a time.

Evening. Tonight on the communicators. Democratic representative diana degat from colorado and jim lanjman from rhode island on internet privacy and how to combat recent data breaches. We have seen attack after attack, the most recent attack, of course, on the office of personnel management, but also in private industry.

Manuel to hatcher. Yeah, thats all made possible by the protection, they brought six, nicely done inside by crockett picking up the blitzer and what a perfect throw manuel had because the coverage was right there. That was late in the second quarter. Capped off a 15play, 94yard drive. Now its up on the raider defense to try and protect the lead. You cant do that. Out of the backfield to swoopes and i believe that was borders who slipped. Slipped. And missed the tackle. Remember, we talked about earlier . Giving a guy a twoway go. Take ab an angle, give him one way to go, run through it. That was not good. Seahawks still with three timeouts as well. On first and ten, davis caught and getting out of bounds
Washington today. Lets start with deferred action, the conversation in the white house about what going to happen with that program. What is being considered at this point . The white house is making a decision of whether to keep that program in place. The white house faces a deadline on tuesday of whether to continue this program for people who were brought into the country illegally as children. Attorneys general have threatened to sue the Trump Administration unless they discontinue this program next week. We think the president really doesnt want to. He has expressed publicly his tortured feelings about this program. He thinks a lot of people have grown to be good americans, essentially, and he doesnt want to rescind the protection isinst deportation, but he facing these lawsuits, so he has a tough decision to make. We are hearing it is probably not going to happen today. Going to talk to a democratic representative from arizona. How is Congress Reacting to this conversation . What
