That means there are more american families, moms, dads, children, whose lives have been changed forever. That means theres another community stunned with grief, and communities across the country forced to relieve their own anguish, and parents across the country who are scared because they know it might have been their families or their children. I have been to roseburg, oregon. They are really good people there. I want to thank all the First Responders whose bravery likely saved some lives today. Federal Law Enforcement has been on the scene in supporting role, and we have offered to stay and help as much as roseburg needs for as long as they need. In the coming days, we will then about the victims, young men and women who were studying and learning and working hard, their eyes set on the future, their dreams on what they could make of their lives. America will wrap everyone who is grieving with our prayers and our love. Just a fewaid, months ago, and a few months before that, and each time we see one of these Mass Shootings, our thoughts and prayers are not enough. Its not enough. Capture the heartache and grief and anger that we should feel, and it does nothing to prevent this carnage from being inflicted someplace else in america. Next week. Or a couple of months from now. Why thisyet know individual did what he did. And, its fair to say that anybody who does this has a sic kness in their minds. Regardless of what they think their motivations may be. But we are not the only country on earth that has people with who want to dos harm to other people. We are the only advanced country on earth that sees these kinds of Mass Shootings every few months. Earlier this year, i answer the question in an interview by saying, the United States of america is the one advanced nation on earth in which we do not have sufficient commonsense gun safety laws, even in the face of repeated mass killings. And later that day, there was a mass shooting at a Movie Theater in lafayette, louisiana. That day. Somehow, this has become routine. The reporting is routine. Podiumonse here at this ends up being routine. The conversation in the aftermath of it. We have become numb to this. We talked about this after columbine, after blacksburg, after tucson, after newtown, after aurora, after charleston. Ofrannot be this easy somebody who for somebody who wants to inflict harm on other people to get his or her hands on a gun. And whats become routine, of course, is the response of those who oppose any kind of common sense gun legislation. Right now, i can imagine the press releases being cranked out. Theyllmore guns, argue, fewer gun safety laws. Does anybody really believe that . There are scores of responsible gun owners in this country. They know thats not true. We know because of the polling that says the majority of americans understand we should be changing these laws, including the majority of responsible, lawabiding gun owners. There is a gun for roughly every man, woman, and child in america. You with a straight face make the argument that more guns will make us safer . We know that states with the most gun laws tend to have the fewest gun dearths. So the notion that gun laws dont work, or will just make it harder for lawabiding citizens, and criminals will still get their guns it is not borne out by the evidence. We know that other countries, in response to one mass shooting, have been able to craft laws that almost eliminate Mass Shootings. Friends of ours. Allises of ours. Great britain, australia. Countries like ours. So, we know there are ways to prevent it. And of course, was also routine is that somebody, somewhere where comment will say and comment, obama politicized this issue. But this is something we should politicized. It is relevant to our common life together, to the body politic. Organizations,s because i will not these facts forward, have News Organizations tally up the number of americans who have been killed to terrorist attacks over the last decade, and the number of americans who have been killed by gun violence. And post those side by side on your news reports. This wont be information coming from me. Itll be coming from you. We spend over 1 trillion and pass countless laws, and devote entire agencies to preventing terrorist attacks on our soil, and rightfully so. And yet we have a congress that explicitly blocks us from even collecting data on how we could potentially reduce gun deaths. How can that be . This is a Political Choice that we make. Happen every to few months in america. We collectively are answerable to those families who lose their loved ones, because of our inaction. When americans are killed in mine disasters, we work to make mines safer. When americans are killed in floods and hurricanes, we make communities safer. Unsafe, we fix them, to reduce auto fatalities. Laws, becauselt we know it saves lives. Violencetion that gun ouromehow different, that freedom and our constitution regulationny modest weapon,e use a deadly when there are lawabiding gun owners all across the country who could hunt and protect their families and do everything they do under such regulations, d oesnt make sense. Tonight, as those of us who are lucky enough to hug our kids are thinkinger about the families who are not so fortunate, i would ask the American People to think about how they can get our government to change these laws and to save lives. Up. To let young people grow that will require a change of politics on this issue, and it will require that the American People individually, whether you are a democrat or a republican or an independent, when you decide to vote for somebody, are making a determination as to whether this cause of continuing death for innocent people should be a relevant factor in your decision. If you think this is a problem, then you should expect your elected officials to reflect your views. And i would particularly ask areicas gunowners, who using those guns properly, sport, to hunt, for for protecting their families, to think about whether your views are properly being represented by the organization that suggests it is speaking for you. And each time this happens, im going to bring this up. Each time this happens, im going to say that we can actually do something about it, but we are going to have to change our laws. And this is not something that i can do by myself. I have got to have a congress and state legislatures and governors who are willing to work with me on this. I hope and pray that i dont during myme out again tenure as president to offer my condolences to families in the circumstances. But based on my experience as president , i cant guarantee that. And thats terrible to say. And it can change. May god bless the memories of those who were killed today. May he bring comfort to their families, and courage to the injured as they fight their way back. And may he give us the strength to come together and find the courage to change. Thank you.

Yearss washington ideas for them, sender Elizabeth Lauren sat down for an Interview CenterElizabeth Warren sat down for an interview with jake kaffir. Jake tapper. This is 20 minutes. [applause] jake good to see you. I know she needs no introduction, but i have been told i have to give her one anyway. [laughter] let me just say, Elizabeth Warren is a firstterm democratic senator from massachusetts. The Consumer FinancialProtection Bureau was her idea. She chaired the Congressional Oversight Panel of tarp, was a professor at harvard, author of the New York Times bestseller a fighting chance. Anything im missing . Thanks so much for joining us. Really appreciate it. Senator warren thank you. Jake to start out with an idea, you and former speaker Newt Gingrich have joined to take on the issue senator warren think about that. [laughter] jake to take on the charge of increasing funding for the National Institutes of health. How will this odd couple, if you permit me saying so, how did this odd couple coming to fruition . How did you meet him . Senator warren what started the idea behind it, what is one of the principal functions of government . To think about our future over a long arc. Not just until next week or even the next funding cycle, but what does it look like overall . I will give you bad news. The fastestgrowing age group in america is people over 100. Then over 90, then over 80. Ucs pattern. We are getting older. Not you and me, but in general as a country. Heres another one. Alzheimers, one of the pencil agerelated principal agerelated diseases. 225year, we will spend billion just in care for people with all summers. That is care. Without the ability to delay onset by even one day. Without the ability to promise the hope that we can get any kind of amelioration of what is happening in this terrible disease as it moves forward. Jake your earpiece is off your ear. Senator warren right in the middle of this. So, how much are we spending on research . We are on the edge of being able to do more in Brain Science and brain research. Billionmuch of the 226 are we spending on research . Less than 0. 2 . Thehe last, since 2003, National Institutes of health have had their effective budget, their purchasing power, cut by 25 . When you think about how we build a future, research is a big part of how we build a future. Right now, the United States congress is cutting back on nih, as if it is a step child to our budget and our future. Speaker gingrich, i think i lost this. Jake you lost it again. Senator warren that was fun. Speaker gingrich is someone who gets it. He wrote a piece in the wall street journal, about how we should be thinking of investing in Brain Science research, medical research. It should not even be part, its an investment in the future. So i read this and think of the phone and said, hi, this is bigger, this is a live mr. Speaker, this is Elizabeth Warren, want to Work Together . He said, absolutely. We are going to keep working on this, because this is about building a Sustainable Future for all of america, and research is one of the pieces right at the heart of that. Jake obviously we are in the throes of a president ial campaign. I would be remiss if i didnt mention that. I dont know if you picked that up in the newspapers. You said you will endorse a democratic candidate in the primaries. Senator warren i am pretty sure its not going to be one of the republicans. [laughter] i have seen enough. Jake you are one of many female Democratic Senators to sign a letter a few years ago urging secretary clinton to run. Should that be seen as an endorsement in itself . Senator warren shes running, along with other people, and they are getting their ideas out there, and thats what should happen during this part of the season. Jake so you just wanted her to run . Senator warren i want everyone who wants to run for president to get out there, put their ideas out there, talk about their ideas with the American People. Thats how it should be. Thats how democracy is supposed to work. Jake when i spoke with senator Bernie Sanders recently, i asked him where he and senator clinton differed. He mentioned a number of areas, including reestablishing glasssteagall, extending Social Security by lifting the cap on taxable income, raising the minimum wage to 15 an hour. I think you and Bernie Sanders align fairly closely on all the major issues. You decidecide, when who to endorse, is it just going to be about who you agree with the most, or do you take into consideration other things, such as who has the better chance of being the nominee or winning in november . Senator warren at this moment, i dont know because i am not there. What i do know is that people are out talking about these key ideas, and thats exactly the right thing to do. We should be talking about glasssteagall. We should be talking about the role the major Financial Institutions play, not just in this economy, but in the political sphere here in washington. We should be talking about minimum wage. We should be talking about college debt. Youhe way, i know where want to put the focus. But i also want to put the focus on, this is a time where you can see a sharper difference between the democrats and the republicans. The republicans have gone in such a different direction on what they think are the issues we should be talking about, and where they come out on but i think our critical issues, particularly economic issues. The idea that we need to get a budget together, that theres a lot to negotiate around that budget, and whats the first thing the republicans say they have to do . Defund planned parenthood. It seems to me, that is so out of touch with reality, so out of touch with what it means to govern this country, that they that they need to do something so they can move women back to 1955, that that is first on their agenda. [applause] they are just wrong on that. Jake i want to talk about planned parenthood in his second. In a second. Senator warren good. Jake before i entirely drop the subject, do you disagree with the idea that you and Bernie Sanders seem to be more closely aligned on issues than with other democrats running for president . Senator warren you want to ask that he different way . Jake thats kind of my job. [laughter] senator warren and kind of my job is to get out there and keep pushing these issues. I will say this. Bernie goes out and fight for what he believes in. He fights on the heart on these issues, and i think he has done an enormous service by pushing them forward into the agenda. I think that secretary clinton has also been pushing forward issues into the agenda that are really important. For example, she just endorsed senator baldwins bill to try to slow down the revolving door here in washington. That is really important. Bless. At least we have some democrats out there talking about the things that matter to the American People. Talking about how we build a real future, and it makes me proud to be a democrat. Jake do you see the Democratic Party moving in a more progressive direction than in the 1990s . Senator warren you would probably need a pundit to wind all that up. But i have to say, i think we are. Were getting in touch with what really matters. Part of the reason is the urgency. Watch was happening to americas middle class, americas working families, americas poor. Let me do one quick fact on this. From 1935 to 1980 dang it. [laughter] one more try. From 1935 to 1980, coming out of the great depression, what do we do . We put restraints on wall street and start investing on things, infrastructure, research. We build americas great middle class. Everybody outside the top 10 , 90 , gets 70 of all wage growth in this country. Gdp is going up. And families across the spectrum are doing better. Trickledown economics hits in the 1980s, and you just watch this reverse. To 2012, the latest time for which we have data, the 90 , everyone outside the 10 , you know how much they got . They got 0 of Income Growth. Growth, as gdp was going up, 100 of Inco
