Younger than they are right now, but just striking to me to see how far removed they are, yet he s at the pinnacle right now. yeah, absolutely. to be fair, gephart is still in washington. he said the same thing as the others did, which is from a distance, because neither of them have none of them have talked to biden recently, it s very clear to them why he s doing what he s doing. they re all focussed on covid relief still and every single one of them brought up the infrastructure package, but it s interesting. gary hart kept saying, listen, i m retired in deep colorado. i don t know the day to day. and dukakis said to me, he retired as well when we spoke. listen, i m focussed on infrastructure. i understand what s happening with mitch mcconnell. i m not doing the day to day of this right now. joe biden was in his third term in the senate when he ran for president in 1987 and again that was 34 years ago. so, he s been deep in this for a very long time and it s easy to forget that ....
Three of the most heavily taxed states. 14 in california, 9 in new york and 5 in new jersey. why would they vote for that, art? they may not if that s the only thing they re considering. if they re considering prosperity in the country i think they ll vote for this bill in spite of that from these people specifically. but if i were in those states getting rid of the amt will save these people in those states a lot of money as well. so it s a deduction as well as getting rid of the amt that you have to put together and make it as one item. that may be very beneficial to new yorkers, californians and people from new jersey. look at them both together. bill: how many democrats voted for the reagan tax cuts in 1980. shannon: 86 in the senate the vote was 97-3. except for paul simon. bill: why was that? why was it so overwhelmingly in favor, then? it s the right thing to do. they learned their lesson in the 84 race. we won the election in 84. winning 49 out of 50 states and all th ....
Interesting there, we ll see how that comes out with my name. that might be a tough one. the faa is trying to track down whoever is shining lasers into their planes and cockpits. four flights reported being targeted last night in new york and new jersey. it s a federal crime to point a laser at a plane and it s been happening a lot lately. last week at least 11 pilots reported having lasers shined at their planes. tom blank is the former head of tsa security policy. he s now the executive vice president of gephart government affairs. according to the faa, laser incidents have been steadily growing since 2010 and already there have been more than 2700 this year alone. just how dangerous are these lasers to flight ops? it s really a very dangerous situation. and in fact they have been growing really since 9/11 which is when tsa began tracking them not only as safety violations but as security problems. so the agency tsa views them ....
Gephart and clinton strategy. i m not sure they know where they want to come down. she has the benefit of not being in the middle of the fight. she s not going to be able to avoid it much longer. it s going to move through congress. senate is expected to take up the bill next week. the house is anxious to move on it as well. so we will have several weeks now where it s going to be in the mix. she may be pressed to the point she has to come down on one side or another. that s you know they are experts, our presidential candidates in avoiding being absolutely cornered. she could avoid it. for a little while longer. it is a legitimate fight inside that party. i think it s interesting what reid is trying to do couple the trade bill with the transportation bill. ....
To help keep it a big secret. martha: the little girl clapping in the background. yeah, this is a good show. new reports that the federal aviation administration may reverse a ban on electronic devices that would make flying a whole lot more enjoyable, folks. those announcements please shut down your cell phones, turn off your ipods could soon become a thing of the past. skopscott brenner shows me now, he is with the firm gephart government affairs. good to have you here. is it a myth or not that these devices, our phones and everything else could interfere with what is going on in the cockpit? you know, everything to date has been basically just antidotal evidence. i don t think the faa has done any thorough testing to show the emissions and how they affect aircraft navigation. i think the faa high school a pretty good idea of going about it. what they are not doing, smart phones, anything that emits a ....
