Gate bridge. Wayne freedman is live. Wayne . Good evening. This is a fivefold increase over the same period last year, but increase in reported accidents. That may be the key word. Last year at this time there were rubber barriers in there. And now, theyre made of metal. Since january, they telled us travels have been safer but numbers may indicate an issue in toll lanes. I was going 3, 4 Miles Per Hour and all of a sudden, crunch. Its the 29th vehicle since january 12th to report damage after hitting these new crash intin intintors. Explaining theyre no wider than the old waterfilled ones but more expensive to maintain the district spent 187,000 repairing them, and purchased spare parts over the year. There are other ones that are less compliant. Both the bridge district and patrol cite speed as a factor. John wilson was in a narrower inside lane. Was it clear to you . The way its marked . I thought it was. Also these signs direct wider loads. Who do you blame . Myself. I wasnt paying
Expolice its jurisdiction over the con explicit jurisdiction over the countrys seat of government. The extent to which congress should oversee or intervene in the governance of the district is a debate for another day, but its clearly our responsibility. Current law compels congressional oversight and we must exercise responsibly that jurisdiction. That includes acting to stop legislation that clearly violates the constitutional freedoms of the citizens of the district. Mr. Speaker, its important to note that women are protected by law, both federal and d. C. , from discrimination on the basis of pregnan would actually give employers the right to fire an employee for the Reproductive Health care choices of their spouses or their children. The other side is saying its all right to fire someone because their boss doesnt like their wifes or even their Childrens Health care choices. Talk about restricting someones rights. It would take away a whole range of womens private decisions and mak
Or get beat up, unfortunately sometimes. I feel that sometimes family can feed into biases because of those cultural differences and we as Community Service providers need to realize that and acknowledge that. Families arent always positive for our youth. Becky, in your experience what does it take to unseat that kind of bias . I think there are a few things. I wanted to back up a little tiny bit. When luslyn talked this morning she talked about our society not only tolerating but sometimes promoting it. One example is immigrants that has been widely out there in the last few years really increasing along with the kinds of things that amina talked about, very antiimmigrant messages coming out in the media. In new york, you probably remember this, some of you, in 2008 High School Students were going out on a weekly basis beating up immigrants that they thought were supposedly undocumented immigrants. The students all knew about this but the adults didnt. It results in a hate crime, a mu
Bottom up. We are Authority Figures and what we do for our children and thats care, but we need to empower them to become the leaders they are waiting to become. This notion of Youth Adult Partnership is esoteric in its term but on the ground how do you operationalize it, those things in the Public School who are working so hard to meet the required mandates. Schools are driven by mandates, academic achievement, achievement, enrollment. But the conditions in which the virus grows, if you follow the metaphor that bullying is a systemic virus, then the environment has to change so the virus cannot grow and the only way the environment changes is if youth and adults begin to speak with one voice about changing the social norms that allows it to happen. It makes sense to most of us, you have it khaifrpb the social norms. We must educate. But we must go beyond thinking more rigor will get us better achievement. We have to remember a school is a community and in a xhuept, people look out for

We have to remember a school is a community and in a xhuept, people look out for each other. Theyve got each others back. How do we begin to promote that idea that we are in this thing together . We believe its through, unfortunately but truly, selfinterest. Kids are driven developmentally by the desire to fit in, to belong, to be part of an affinity group. If we can capitalize on their desir
