[applause] mr. Sanders i dont have to worry about some billionaire or wall street guy calling me up because we dont have their money, we dont want their money, we dont need their money. [applause] mr. Sanders secretary clinton has chosen to go another route in terms of how she raises money. She has several super pacs. The largest one recently reported it has raised 25 million in special interest money, 15 million from wall street alone. [boos] mr. Sanders as some of you may also know, secretary clinton has given speeches on wall street for 225,000 a speech. What i have said is if are going to be paying 225,000 for a speech, it must be an extraordinarily brilliant speech. [applause] mr. Sanders it must be a speech that could transform our country and the world. It must be a shakespearean type speech. And if that speech is so great let the American People see it. [applause] mr. Sanders second issue, all of you know Foreign Policy is a very important part of what a president does. The most important foreignpolicy debate in the modern history of this country took place in 2002. I listened very carefully to what president bush and Vice President cheney and all of these guys had to say. [boos] mr. Sanders they were saying we have to invade iraq, we have to invade iraq. I did not believe them. And i voted against that disastrous law. [applause] mr. Sanders thensenator clinton heard the same arguments, read the same information. She voted for that disastrous war. When we talk about why the middle class of this country has been disappearing for 30 years why many millions of workers today are working longer hours for lower wages, a lot of that has to do with horrific trade policies written by Corporate America. Since the year 2001, this country has lost 60,000 factories and millions of decent paying jobs. [booing] mr. Sanders i have opposed every one of these trade agreements, nafta, cafta. [applause] mr. Sanders secretary clinton has supported virtually all of those corporately written trade agreements. One of the reasons our campaign is doing so well is that we are not listening to bigmoney Campaign Contributors. We are listening to the American People. [applause] mr. Sanders this is what the American People are telling me. If they are workers, they are saying they cannot make it on eight dollars, nine dollars, 10 an hour. They are tired of working for working, working and not going anywhere. That is why we need to raise the minimum wage to 15 an hour. [applause] mr. Sanders i understand you have a governor here who is trying to make it harder to raise the minimum wage. [booing] mr. Sanders that is exactly the wrong thing to do. [applause] mr. Sanders this campaign is listening to Senior Citizens and disabled veterans. I know that arizona has a whole lot of men and women who have put their lives on the line to defend us and we thank them all. [applause] mr. Sanders but here is the truth. No Senior Citizen or disabled vet can live on 11,000 or 12,000 the year Social Security. [applause] mr. Sanders unbelievably, weve got republicans in congress who want to cut Social Security. Ive got bad news for them. We are not going to cut Social Security. We are going to expand Social Security. [applause] mr. Sanders this campaign is listening to young people. And what young people are telling me is, bernie, we were told it was the right thing to do to go to college or graduate school. You told us how important it is to get the best education we can. Why is it that when we leave school, we are 30,000 or 50,000 in debt . Anybody here with student debt . Unbelievable. I want you to think outside the box. Think outside the status quo. You all know we live in a very competitive Global Economy. We need to have the best educated workforce in the world. [applause] mr. Sanders you all know many of the new jobs being created today require a lot more education than the jobs of the past. For a very long time, when we thought about Public Education what we talked about was first grade through 12th grade. And that was great 50 years ago. But the world has changed. The economy has changed. Technology has changed. When we talk about Public Education today, what we have got to be talking about is making public colleges and universities tuitionfree. [applause] [chanting bernie, bernie] mr. Sanders this is not a radical idea. The world has changed. Our educational system has to change with it. Other countries, and i know you know this, germany and scandinavia, they do that and they provide Free College Education because they know investing in their young people is what will make their economy strong. [applause] mr. Sanders the other issue is millions of people, some young and some not so young are really being crushed with high levels of student debt. What we are about to do is say to those people, you will be able to finance that debt at the lowest Interest Rate you can find. [applause] mr. Sanders now, i am criticized by the establishment, my opponent this is a very expensive proposition. You want to have public colleges and universities tuition free and significantly lower student debt. Thats about 70 billion year. How are you going to pay for it . I will tell you how we are going to pay for it. Remember eight years ago when the greed, recklessness and illegal behavior of wall street drove this economy into the worst economic downturn since the 1930s . Congress bailed out wall street. It seems to me that now is the time to impose a tax on wall street speculation. [applause] mr. Sanders the middle class of this country bailed out the crooks on wall street. Now is wall streets time to help the middle class of this country. [applause] mr. Sanders this campaign this campaign [laughter] [applause] [chanting bernie] mr. Sanders this campaign is listening to our brothers and sisters in the Latino Community. [applause] mr. Sanders and what the Latino Community is telling me is that they are tired of 11 Million People, 11 Million People in this country who are undocumented, living in the shadows, who are living in fear, who are living with a great deal of exploitation, and what the Latino Community is telling me is that now is the time for comprehensive Immigration Reform. And a path towards citizenship. [applause] mr. Sanders in a democracy, people can agree or disagree with Immigration Reform or anything else. But what people cannot do, what donald trump cannot do is engage in bigotry, engage in vicious insults against our mexican neighbors. [applause] mr. Sanders that is not acceptable. And we will not tolerate it. [applause] mr. Sanders and, if congress does not do its job, i will use the executive office and the powers of the presidency to do everything that i can to see that families are united, not separated. [applause] mr. Sanders and our department of justice will take a very hard look at what sheriff arpaio and people like him are doing. [chanting bernie, bernie] mr. Sanders i am the son of an immigrant. My father came from poland. He came to this country not knowing one word of english. So i have some experience with the immigrant family situation. I am tired of seeing young people with tears running down their cheeks, worried that their parents or their brother or their sister will be deported. We are going to put an end to deportation. [applause] mr. Sanders this campaign is listening to our brothers and sisters in the native american communities. [applause] mr. Sanders there is no group of people in our country today who have contributed more to our culture, to our respect for the environment than have the native american communities. [applause] mr. Sanders and i dont have to tell anybody here that from the first days of when the settlers came to this continent, they cheated the native American People, they lied to the native American People, they broke treaties with the native American People, and today, what we are seeing in community after community of native americans is outrageously high levels of unemployment, of poverty, of alcoholism, of suicide, of kids dropping out of high school. It is time for the United States government to treat the native american tribes with respect. [applause] mr. Sanders and that is what i will do as president of the United States. I am a member of the u. S. Senate committee on the environment. [applause] mr. Sanders and let me tell you what virtually no republican will tell you. That is the debate is over. Climate change is real. Climate change is caused by human activity. And Climate Change is already causing devastating problems in this country and around the world. And let me tell you what the scientists are also saying. That is if we do not get our act together, if we do not transform our Energy System away from fossil fuels to Energy Efficiency and sustainable energy, a bad situation today will become a lot, lot worse. [applause] mr. Sanders what the scientists tell us, if we do not act boldly by the end of this century, this planet will be between five degrees to 10 degrees fahrenheit warmer. That is catastrophic. What that means is more drought, more floods, more extreme weather disturbances, more rising sea levels, more acidification of the oceans, and more International Conflict as people fight for limited natural resources. [applause] mr. Sanders that is why together, we are going to stand up to the fossil fuel industry and tell them that their short term profits are not worth the future of this planet. [applause] mr. Sanders and, by the way while we are talking about Environmental Issues, we have got to end fracking. [applause] mr. Sanders there was a piece in the paper the other day it is not just went, michigan, suffering from severe water problems, it is hundreds and hundreds of communities all over america. Fracking will make that situation worse. End fracking. [applause] mr. Sanders i have been criticized by my opponents for saying this, so let me say it again. [applause and laughter] mr. Sanders and that is, health care is a right of all people, not a privilege. [applause] mr. Sanders now some of the Affordable Care act has done some very good things. But, we have a long way to go. Today, in america, 29 million americans have no Health Insurance. Many of you are underinsured with high deductibles and copayments, am i right . Everyone in this country is being ripped off by the greed of the Drug Companies. [applause] mr. Sanders Drug Companies charge us the highest prices in the world for medicine and the situation is so crazy that one out of five americans cannot afford to fill the prescription their doctors write. That is crazy. Then it turns out we are spending far, far more than capital on health care than any other country on earth. [booing] mr. Sanders that is why we have to move toward a medicare for all health care system. [applause] mr. Sanders everybody here tonight knows that in our history as a nation, real change always takes place from the bottom up, not from the top down. [applause] mr. Sanders real change takes place when the real people look around and say the status quo is not working. It has got to change. [applause] mr. Sanders change took place 100 years ago when workers were being treated as if they were animals, that we were going to form a union whether the employer likes it or not. Real change takes place when over the last years, hundreds of americans said racism, segregation and bigotry is not what this country is about. [applause] sen. Sanders 100 years ago, women in america did not have the right to vote. [booing] sen. Sanders but what women and their male allies said is that in america, women will not be treated as secondclass citizens. [applause] sen. Sanders and by the way what they said is that women will be able to control their own bodies. [applause] sen. Sanders 10 years ago if there was somebody in this room who said, i think that gay marriage will be made legal in 50 states in this country by the year 2015, the person next to him what has said, what are you smoking . [laughter] sen. Sanders which raises a whole other issue [laughter] sen. Sanders but, what happened . What happened is the Gay Community against ferocious hatred and their straight allies [applause] sen. Sanders what they said, is that in america, people should be allowed to love each other no matter what their gender is. [applause] sen. Sanders that is how change takes place. [applause] sen. Sanders and we are at that profound and Pivotal Moments in American History today, where millions of people are looking around and they are saying, is this right, that so few have so much and so many have so little . Is it right that the United States of america, this great country, is the only major country on earth that does not guarantee health care to all, or paid family and medical leave . Is it right that when we have seen in recent years, a proliferation of millionaires and billionaires that we have today, the highest rate of childhood poverty of almost any major country on earth . [booing] sen. Sanders is it right that in this nation the men and women who defended our veterans, some of them are sleeping out on the streets . So what the American People are saying, is, we can do much better. [applause] sen. Sanders and what the American People by the millions our understanding, as you are not going to do much better if we go back to the same old, same old establishments politics, and establishment economics. Now, i am the only candidate for president who will tell you this truth it is not a happy truth but it is the truth, and that is, no president , not Bernie Sanders or anyone else, can do it alone. We need the people who have the power in this country, and that is wall street, who have endless amounts of money, Corporate America, whose greed has done a so much damage, the Corporate Media, which determines what we see, hear, or read. Wealthy Campaign Contributors they have enormous power. The only way that we transform this country and take them on is when millions of people stand up and say, enough is enough. [applause] sen. Sanders and that is what this Political Revolution is about. It is involving people, many at home have given up on the political process, to get involved, to stand up, to fight back for justice. [applause] sen. Sanders on tuesday, there is going to be a very, very important primary, here in arizona. [applause] sen. Sanders so, please, on tuesday, make sure that you your friends, your family, come out to vote, let us see how arizona helps to lead the Political Revolution. Thank you. [applause] [starman by david bowie playing] indistinct [indistinct conversation] [starman by david bowie playing] [indistinct conversation] [crowd chatter] [crowd cheering] announcer house returns after a threeday for a three day work week. Members also considered new International Standards for blocking travel by terrorists and foreign fighters. On tuesday, the house takes up a series of hills and recognition of womens his three month. Then the Senate Stands in recess until april 4. As always, you can join us on cspan and cspan2. Good sunday morning. Thank you for being with us. I want to go to your colleague David Hawkings who writes everyone seems to be going to the cspan archives to read what senators have said. What did he say in 1987 and how is it relevant in 2016. Guest the relevance we were in 1987 to this cycle is that this was the last go around. We had a republican president Democratic Senate and one of the things were looking at back then was the fact that we ultimately got to a point of confirmation in the Election Year, 1988 but you have this story up in front of you host the quote was, the dangers of politicizing the nomination process are needed by shortsightedness. After all president ial elections End Supreme Court nominations, and go. I urge my colleagues to resist. Guest what was happening was we went from the defeated nomination to the Anthony Kennedy nomination, which was confirmed in 1988 in the Election Year after the nomination was defeated. That was when grassley was in play then. He was already in the senate, of course. Every time we turn around, there is some new clip being pulled up out of the cspan archives. Guest host Merrick Garland was on capitol hill and had a couple of meetings. Roll call reporting that he will meet with others. Guest there are 10 or 11 that we know of at this point that would say they are ok having a meeting with chief judge garland. There was a report
