South Korea's first F-35A stealth jet was unveiled at a rollout ceremony in Texas.

Arguably the most advanced fighters ever built,... they are expected to significantly upgrade

the nation's air defense capabilities.

Park Ji-won gets us better acquainted with the mean machines that symbolize Seoul and

Washington's unshakable military alliance.

The first South Korean F-35A fighter aircraft made its public debut at a rollout ceremony

held at Lockheed Martin's assembly line in Texas on Wednesday local time.

Hundreds of key defense and military officials, as well as politicians from South Korea and

the U.S. attended the ceremony.

Seoul's Vice Defense Minister Suh Choo-suk and the South Korean Air Force's Vice Chief

of Staff Lee Seong-yong were among the attendees.

Vice Minister Suh stressed the fielding of the fighter jet is not simply an acquisition

of jets, but also a symbolic representation of the ironclad alliance between South Korea

and the U.S.

"I request your continued interest and support for the fielding of the F-35 fighter jet so

that it can serve as a critical asset in protecting the South Korean airspace.

I also hope for the continued peace and stability on the Korean peninsula stemming from the

impervious ROK-U.S. alliance."

In a video message, South Korea's Defense Minister Song Young-moo dubbed the fifth-generation

stealth aircraft as the world's best fighter jet,... saying its deployment will greatly

enhance the nation's ability to maintain the security of the nation's sovereign airspace.

The F-35A jets have state-of-the-art radar evasion capabilities and an advanced weapon

system,.... which are expected to significantly strengthen the country's defense against any

provocation.

"The technological capabilities of this fifth-generation fighter are unmatched anywhere in the world.

The F-35 does more than transform into an airforce.

It transforms a nation's armed forces, and it enables allies to maintain peace through

strength and cooperation that spans the globe."

South Korea's Air Force also expects the advanced fighter jets to enhance the security of the

Korean peninsula.

"With aims to implement effective aerospace operations,... we expect the F-35As to enhance

our prompt precision strike capabilities."

Six F-35A jets will be manufactured for South Korea this year, and they will be delivered

to Luke Air Force Base in Arizona,.. where South Korean pilots will undergo the respective

training before the jets are delivered to Cheongju Air Base in South Korea next March.

The South Korean Air Force aims at securing a fleet of at least 40 F-35A units by 2021.

American Modern Opera Company Leads Public Performance at Harvard Innovation Labs - Duration: 9:18.

We would like to begin the event with a collaboration with you so when we begin it would be great

actually if you stood up and got as close to each other as possible.

Can everyone turn to the piece of paper that says at the top "Cornelius Cardew - the great

learning".

Does everyone have a copy?

So we are going to create a piece of music together.

According to a few simple rules.

The text that is kind of arranged as a acrostic poem here if there being any confusion.

It is a translation of Confucius and that is our text that we all going to sing.

Each line is something that we sing repeatedly.

So when it says sing 8, it means sing that line 8 times.

If its a phrase you repeat the phrase.

Every time we sing a line we sing it for as long as we can hold our breath.

So its going to be long.

You sing the word 'if' as long as you can 8 times.

Is there any rhyme or reason to this chaos?

Yes kind of.

When it comes to the pitches everybody up here knows what pitches are.

When we start everyone picks their own pitch.

When we begin it is going to sound like absolute chaos, white noise.

A dense mass of sound.

Every time you change line you change to a new pitch.

Every time you change to a new pitch you have to take a pitch from someone else in the room.

(singing)

From Problem to Prevention: Evidence-Based Public Health - 03/22/2018 - Duration: 47:36.

GOOD MORNING, EVERYONE.

I'M GLAD YOU CAN MAKE IT THIS

MORNING I'M HEARING THERE'S SOME

PEOPLE ON THE EAST COAST BECAUSE

OF SNOW.

I WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT

EVERYBODY IS ABLE TO HEAR ME.

CAN ONE OF THE ATTENDEES LET ME

KNOW IF THAT'S OKAY THE AUDIO IS

WORKING?

LET'S TALK ABOUT EVIDENCE-BASED

PUBLIC HEALTH

I'M WITH THE

PACIFIC NORTHWEST REGION YOU CAN

SEE HIGHLIGHTED IN THE MAP AS

REGION 6.

IT COVERS ALASKA, IDAHO,

MONTANA, OREGON AND WASHINGTON.

WE'RE ONE OF EIGHT REGIONS

ACROSS THE COUNTRY AND YOU CAN

SEE THE LOCATIONS OF EACH OF THE

EIGHT REGIONS ACROSS THE MAP.

AND WE FOCUS ON EXPANDING HEALTH

INFORMATION AND OTHER STUFF.

IT'S VERY USEFUL TO LIBRARIANS.

I KNOW YOU HAVE ALL CREATED AN

ACCOUNT THROUGH OUR WEBSITE TO

REGISTER FOR OUR COURSE BUT I

ENCOURAGE YOU TO EXPLORE OTHER

TRAINING AND FUNDING

OPPORTUNITIES AVAILABLE.

ALSO, BECAUSE THE TRAINING IS

FOCUSSED ON PUBLIC HEALTH I DID

WANT TO MENTION WE HAVE A PUBLIC

HEALTH COORDINATION OFFICE.

IT'S FOCUSSED ON PROVIDING

DISCOUNTED ACCESS FOR ELECTRONIC

JOURNALS FOR STATE PUBLIC HEALTH

DEPARTMENTS MAY THEY NOT HAVE A

LIBRARY OR BUDGET THAT ALLOWS

FOR A WIDE SELECTION OF PUBLIC

HEALTH LITERATURE.

I'D ALSO LIKE TO INTRODUCE

MYSELF.

MY NAME IS ANN MODAVIN AND I AM

THE RESEARCH AND DATA

COORDINATOR FOR THE NATIONAL

NETWORKS OF LIBRARIES OF

MEDICINE, PACIFIC NORTHWEST

REGION.

AND PRIOR TO WORKING AT THE NNLM

I WAS A LIBRARIAN AT PUBLIC

HEALTH SEATTLE KING COUNTY FOR

EIGHT YEARS AND ASSISTED AT THE

KING COUNTY LOCAL HAZARDOUS

WASTE MANAGEMENT PROGRAM WHICH

DEALS PRIMARILY WITH

ENVIRONMENTAL HEALTH.

UNFORTUNATELY OUR LIVE CAPTION

FOR THE CLASS IS NOT WORKING OUT

TODAY BUT WE WILL HAVE IT

AVAILABLE WHEN

THE YOU HAVE ALL

THE BEEN MUTED UPON ENTRY BUT

PLEASE FEEL FREE TO USE THE CHAT

BOX TO ASK QUESTIONS THROUGHOUT

AND I'M HOPING WE'LL FIND A FEW

MINUTES AT THE END OF THE

PRESENTATION SO THAT YOU CAN

ALSO ASK QUESTIONS THEN.

YOU ARE OUTLINE FOR THE HOUR

WILL FOCUS ON EVIDENCE BASED

PUBLIC HEALTH IT'S NEED AND HOW

TO CONDUCT RESEARCH TO FIND THE

RIGHT INFORMATION.

WE'LL TOUCH BRIEFLY ON THE

EVALUATION AND FOLLOW-UP.

FIRST WE NEED TO START WITH THE

BASICS.

THAT MEANS TALKING ABOUT PUBLIC

HEALTH IN GENERAL.

ASK 20 PEOPLE TO DEFINE PUBLIC

HEALTH AND YOU'LL PROBABLY GET

ABOUT 20 DIFFERENT ANSWERS.

THAT'S BECAUSE PUBLIC HEALTH

ENCOMPASSES DIFFERENT AREAS.

THE AMERICAN PUBLIC HEALTH

ASSOCIATION STATES PUBLIC HEALTH

PROMOTES AND PROTECT THE HEALTH

OF PEOPLE AND THE COMMUNITIES

WHERE THEY LIVE, LEARN, WORK AND

PLAY.

THAT'S PRETTY BROAD BUT THEN

AGAIN SO IS PUBLIC HEALTH.

TO SEE SOME EXAMPLES OF THIS

WE'LL LOOK AT CENTERS FOR

DISEASE CONTROL AND PREVENTION.

I'VE HIGHLIGHTED 10 GREAT PUBLIC

HEALTH ACHIEVEMENTS FROM THE

20th CENTURY.

YOU CAN SEE ON THE SLIDE THESE

SLIDES COVER IMMUNIZATIONS TO

PUBLIC WATER AND TRANSPORTATION.

THEY ALL FULL UNDER PUBLIC

HEALTH WHICH ADDS 20 YEARS OF

LIFE EXPECTANCY TO PEOPLE IN THE

UNITED STATES OVER THE SPAN OF

THE LAST CENTURY, THE 20th

CENTURY.

NOW THAT WE'VE GOT A BETTER IDEA

OF PUBLIC HEALTH AS A WHOLE, WE

CAN NARROW IT DOWN AND SAY,

OKAY, WHAT EXACTLY IS PUBLIC

HEALTH?

HERE'S WHAT ONE BASIC DEFINITION

STATES.

EVIDENCE-BASED PUBLIC HEALTH IS

A DEVELOPMENT IMPLEMENTATION AND

EVALUATION OF EFFECTIVE PROGRAMS

AND POLICIES IN PUBLIC HEALTH

THROUGH APPLICATION OF

PRINCIPLES OF SCIENTIFIC

REASONING.

THAT'S JUST FOCUSSING ON ONE

PIECE OF THIS DEFINITION

EFFECTIVE PROGRAMS AND POLICIES.

THAT'S A KEY ASPECT OF THE

EVIDENCE-BASED PUB RICK HEALTH

ISSUE BUT HOW DO YOU KNOW IF

SOMETHING IS AN EFFECTIVE

PROGRAM OR POLICY?

ONE WAY TO ANSWER THE QUESTIONS

IS TO LOOK AT DIFFERENT DOMAINS

THAT INFLUENCE EVIDENCE-BASED

DECISION MAKING.

WE CAN DETERMINE EFFECTIVE

PROGRAMS BY EXAMINING THE BEST

POSSIBLE RESEARCH EVIDENCE,

UNDERSTANDING THE CURRENT

COMMUNITY AND POLITICAL

LANDSCAPE AND CONSIDERING

PERSONAL EXPERIENCE, KNOWLEDGE

AND EXPERTISE.

COMBINING THESE ALLOWS PUBLIC

HEALTH PRACTITIONERS TO MAKE

INFORMED DECISIONS ON THE

DEVELOPMENT, IMPLEMENTATION AND

EVALUATION OF INTERVENTIONS,

PROGRAMS OR POLICIES.

SO HOW IS EVIDENCE-BASED PUBLIC

BASE PRACTICED.

THERE ARE DIFFERENT APPROACH BUT

ONE IS FROM BROWNSON AND

COLLEAGUES AND COVERS SEVEN

STEPS WHICH I'LL COVER HERE

BRIEFLY.

THEN GOING INTO MORE DETAIL ON

SOME OF THEM AS WE MOVE THROUGH

THE PRESENTATION.

THE FIRST STEP IS TO DEVELOP A

CONCISE STATEMENT OF THE ISSUE.

AT THIS STAGE, YOU'RE CLEARLY

ARTICULATING THE PROBLEM IN AN

EFFORT TO BUILD SUPPORT FOR THE

ISSUE.

THE KEY COMPONENT OF AN ISSUE

STATEMENT INCLUDE THE HEALTH

CONDITION OR RISK FACTOR BEING

CONSIDERED, THE POPULATIONS

AFFECTED AND THE SIZE AND SCOPE

OF THE PROBLEM, POTENTIAL

OPPORTUNITIES AND STAKEHOLDER.

THE THIRD ISSUE IS TO QUANTIFY

THE ISSUE.

OR THE THIRD STEP IS TO QUANTIFY

THE ISSUE.

HEREBY YOU'RE IDENTIFYING

SOURCES RELATED TO THE ISSUE OR

THE PROBLEM YOU'D LIKE TO

ADDRESS.

IS THE FOURTH STEP IS

RESEARCHING THE SCIENTIFIC

LITERATURE SOMETHING LIBRARIAN

FAMILIAR WITH AND IT INVOLVES A

COMPREHENSIVE SEARCH OF

EFFECTIVE INTERVENTIONS ON YOUR

TOPIC TO DETERMINE WHAT HAS

OR

HAS NOT WORKED IN THE PAST.

NEXT PRIORITIZATION AND THEN

IMPLEMENTING THE INTERVENTION

AND THE FINAL STEP IS TO

EVALUATE THE PROGRAM AND

HOPEFULLY SHARE THE RESULTS WITH

THE BROADER COMMUNITY TO HELP

BUILD A CONTINUED BASE OF SHARED

KNOWLEDGE.

THE PROFESSIONAL OF

EVIDENCE-BASED PROCESS IS A

CONTINUING CYCLE OR LOOP BECAUSE

PUBLIC HEALTH PROGRAMS SHOULD BE

EVALUATED ON AN ONGOING BASIS.

CONTINUING TO MONITOR THE HEALTH

STATUS OF THE POPULATION AND

MAKING MIDCOURSE CORRECTION AND

ADJUSTMENTS TO PROGRAMS AND

INTERVENTIONS AS NEEDED.

AS WE SAW IN THE PREVIOUS SLIDE

THERE'S COMMUNITY ASSESSMENTS.

THESE ASSESSMENTS HELP

COMMUNITIES IDENTIFY THE

PROBLEMS AND OBJECTIVES AND

REVIEW EXISTING POLICIES AND

GAPS AND ACCESS NEEDS AND

RESOURCES.

AS THE FIRST STEP OF THE

FRAMEWORK ASSESSMENTS ARE USED

TO DEVELOP RESPONSIVE AND

TARGETED APPROACHES TO ADDRESS

PUBLIC HEALTH NEEDS AND

CHALLENGES.

BECAUSE THIS IS THE FIRST STEP I

WANT TO PROVIDE ADDITIONAL

DETAILS ABOUT THIS STEP.

SO HOW DOES ONE GET THE

INFORMATION FROM THE COMMUNITY?

THE ASSESSMENT CAN BE DONE IN A

NUMBER OF WAYS AND THROUGH A

VARIETY OF RESOURCES AND I'VE

LISTED SOME APPROACHES YOU CAN

TAKE TO GET INPUT AND

INFORMATION FROM THE COMMUNITY.

THESE MIGHT INCLUDE SURVEYS OR

SEEING QUALITATIVE OR

QUANTITATIVE INFORMATION.

ONE REALLY GREAT RESOURCE IS THE

COMMUNITY TOOLBOX.

THIS FREE RESOURCE IS DEVELOPED

AND MANAGED BY THE UNIVERSITY OF

KANSAS WORK GROUP FOR COMMUNITY

HEALTH AND DEVELOPMENT.

PARTNERS NATIONALLY AND

INTERNATIONALLY.

THE SITE IS DESIGNED TO PROVIDE

RESOURCES AND TOOLS TO HELP

PEOPLE WORK TOGETHER TO BUILD

HEALTHIER COMMUNITIES.

THESE RESOURCES AND TOOLS

INCLUDE A NUMBER OF FEATURES

INCLUDING SKILL BUILD AND

SPECIALIZED TOOL KITS FOR A

VARIETY OF COMMUNITY-BUILDING

ACTIVITIES.

AS YOU CAN SEE, ONE OF THE TOOL

KIT SUBJECTS FOCUSES ON

ASSESSING COMMUNITY NEEDS AND

RESOURCES AND IT INCLUDES NOT

JUST AN OUTLINE ON HOW TO DO

THIS BUT OTHER EXAMPLES.

ANOTHER GOOD RESOURCE COMES FROM

THE CENTERS FROM DISEASE CONTROL

AND PREVENTION.

THIS SITE PROVIDES ADDITIONAL

INFORMATION ON COMMUNITY HEALTH

ASSESSMENT PLANS IN ADDITION TO

LINKS ON DATA AND BENCHMARKS.

A THIRD RESOURCE THAT I WANT TO

INTRODUCE YOU TO IS THE NATIONAL

LIBRARY OF MEDICINE AND NATIONAL

INFORMATION CENTER ON HEALTH

SERVICES RESEARCH AND HEALTH

CARE TECHNOLOGY WHICH IS

COMMONLY REFERRED TO AS NICHSR.

WITHIN NICHSR, IS THE HEALTH

SERVICES RESEARCH INFORMATION

CENTRAL AND ONE OF THE AREAS OF

INFORMATION THAT THEY HAVE

AVAILABLE IS THIS COMMUNITY

BENEFIT AND COMMUNITY HEALTH

NEEDS ASSESSMENT SECTION.

THIS SECTION IS REALLY DESIGNED

PRIMARILY FOR HOSPITALS.

SOME OF YOU MAY OR MAY NOT BE

AWARE THAT AS PART OF THE

AFFORDABLE CARE ACT, HOSPITALS

HAVE TO BEGIN DEMONSTRATING

THEIR COMMUNITY BENEFIT BY

CONDUCTING COMMUNITY HEALTH

NEEDS ASSESSMENT.

TO THIS END, THIS WEBSITE

PROVIDES A NUMBER OF REALLY GOOD

RESOURCES THAT ARE AVAILABLE TO

HOSPITALS THAT ARE GETTING INTO

DEVELOPING THESE HEALTH NEEDS

ASSESSMENTS.

BUT IT HAS GOOD INFORMATION FOR

OTHER ORGANIZATIONS AS WELL.

YOU CAN SEE IN THE TABLE OF

CONTENTS THEY HAVE BROKEN OUT

INTO DIFFERENT AREAS.

ONE OF THE THINGS THAT'S KIND OF

NEAT ABOUT THE TOOL IS THERE ARE

EXAMPLES OF COMMUNITY

HEALTH-NEEDS ASSESSMENT AND YOU

CAN CLICK ON THE LINK IF YOU

WANT TO GO DOWN THE PAGE

FURTHER.

YOU'LL ALSO FIND ACTUAL LINKS TO

WHAT OTHER HOSPITALS HAVE DONE

IN TERMS OF DEVELOPING THEIR

COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS

ASSESSMENTS.

SEEING WHAT RESULTS OTHER

ORGANIZATIONS HAVE ACHIEVED IS A

GOOD POINT OF COMPARISON FOR

CREATING A COMMUNITY ASSESSMENT.

SOME OF THESE INCLUDE THE

METHODOLOGY.

TO GIVE YOU AN IDEA OF HOW TO GO

ABOUT IMPLEMENTING YOUR

COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS

ASSESSMENT AS WELL.

YOU'LL SEE THE LINKS THAT THEY

PROVIDE, PROVIDE REPRESENTATIVE

SAMPLES AND WHILE IT'S CERTAINLY

NOT EXHAUSTIVE THE RESOURCE

PROVIDES RECENT LINKS TO SOME OF

THOSE RESOURCES.

I SEE IN THE CHAT BOX REBECCA

SAID THE LINKS WILL BE PROVIDE.

YOU WILL BE ABLE TO ACCESS THE

SLIDES AND THE RECORDING WITHIN

THE WEEK AND YOU SHOULD BE ABLE

TO LINK TO THOSE AT THAT TIME.

I HOPE THAT'S HELPFUL.

ANOTHER GREAT OPTION FOR

COMMUNITY ASSESSMENT IDEAS AND

INFORMATION ARE THE RESOURCES

AVAILABLE FROM THE NATIONAL

NETWORK OF LIBRARIES OF MEDICINE

NATIONAL EVALUATION OFFICE.

YOU CAN GO ONLINE TO

NNLM.gov/NEO AND DOWNLOAD

SEVERAL FOR FREE OR REQUEST HARD

COPIES WHICH ARE ALSO FREE.

AND THE BOOKS ARE FOCUSSED ON

COMMUNITY OUTREACH BUT THE FIRST

ONE AND THE SECOND WILL PROVIDE

YOU WITH GOOD INFORMATION ON

GETTING STARTED WITH COMMUNITY

ASSESSMENTS AND BUILDING

IMPORTANT RELATIONSHIPS WITHIN

YOUR COMMUNITY.

BECAUSE WE HAVE JUST AN HOUR

TODAY, WE'RE GOING TO STEP OVER

STEPS TWO AND THROW AND LOOK

MORE IN DEPTH TO DETERMINE WHAT

IS KNOWN ABOUT THE SCIENTIFIC

LITERATURE.

AT THIS STAGE IN THE

EVIDENCE-BASED PROCESS, YOU'LL

HAVE TO COME UP WITH A CONCISE

STATEMENT OF THE ISSUE AND

QUANTIFY THE NEED.

NOW WE NEED TO UNDERSTAND IF

THERE IS EVIDENCE THAT

IMPLEMENTING A POLICY OR PROGRAM

IS GOING TO BE EFFECTIVE.

TO DO THIS EFFECTIVELY WE NEED

TO BREAK OUT INFORMATION INTO A

QUESTION THAT CAN BE USED TO

SEARCH THE LITERATURE.

WE'LL DEMONSTRATE THE QUESTION

DEVELOPMENT USE SCENARIO WE CAN

SEE ON THE SCREEN.

THE SCENARIO STATES YOUR LOCAL

COMMUNITY HAS SEEN A RISE IN

OBESITY AMONG CHILDREN AND YOU

WOULD LIKE TO CREATE A NUTRITION

PROGRAM.

NO PROGRAMS CURRENTLY EXIST SO

YOU NEED TO COME UP WITH

EVIDENCE THAT PUTTING EFFORT

INTO THE PROGRAM WILL REDUCE

RATES OF CHILDHOOD OBESITY.

ONE OF THE MOST COMMON WAYS IS

TO USE THE P-I-C-O MODEL.

IT ALLOWS YOU TO BETTER DEFINE

THE QUESTION WE NEED TO SEARCH.

PICO STANDS FOR

POPULATION/PROBLEM,

INTERVENTION, COMPARISON AND

OUTCOME.

WE CAN APPLY PICO TO OUR

PREVIOUS SCENARIO TO SEE HOW IT

FITS.

FIRST, WE KNOW THE POPULATION

PROBLEM IS OBESITY AMONG

CHILDREN WITHIN OUR LOCAL

COMMUNITY AND IT'S AN EDUCATION

PROGRAM FOR THE PARENTS.

THE COMPARISON IS JUST NOT DOING

ANYTHING AT ALL.

SOMETIMES THERE MAY BE ANOTHER

INVENTION TAKING PLACE AND THAT

COULD THE COMPARISON.

FINALLY, YOUR OUTCOME IS WE WANT

TO REDUCE RATES OF CHILDHOOD

OBESITY.

ONCE WE PUT ALL THAT INFORMATION

TOGETHER, WE CAN FORMULATE A

RESEARCHABLE QUESTION.

I THAT'D PARTS OF THE PICO THAT

APPLY TO THE QUESTION.

AGAIN, BECAUSE THE COMPARISON

PIECE IS DOING NOTHING, I DIDN'T

ADD -- I DIDN'T INCLUDE THE "C."

ONCE WE HAVE A SEARCHABLE

QUESTION WE CAN LOOK FOR IF HE

ANSWER.

THE QUESTION IS WILL A NUTRITION

EDUCATION PROGRAM REDUCE THE

RATE OF CHILDHOOD OBESITY WITHIN

OUR LOCAL COMMUNITY.

BEFORE WE TALK ABOUT THAT I'D

LIKE IT TALK ABOUT THE SOME OF

THE PLACES YOU CAN GO TO SEARCH

THE LITERATURE ON SUCCESSFUL

INTERVENTIONS.

I WANT TO TALK ABOUT THE

HIERARCHY OF EVIDENCE.

IT MAY BE FAMILIAR TO MANY OF

YOU BUT IMPORTANT TO REVIEW WHEN

YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT FINDINGED

EVIDENCE BASED RESEARCH.

IT'S OFTEN DEPICTED IN A PYRAMID

FORMAT WHERE THERE'S THE FORMATS

OF LOWEST QUALITY OF EVIDENCE

AND THE TOP OF THE PYRAMID WITH

THE HIGHEST QUALITY OF EVIDENCE.

WHAT I'M REFERRING TO IS THE

RANGE OF BIASES OR OPPORTUNITIES

FOR STUDIES TO HAVE SYSTEMATIC

ERRORS.

FOR EXAMPLE, ANECDOTAL OR

OPINIONS IN EDITORIALS CAN HAVE

A SIGNIFICANT LEVEL OF BIAS

BASED ON THE AUTHOR AND THEIR

EXPERIENCE.

ON THE OTHER HAND, RANDOMIZED

CONTROL TRIALS OR SYSTEMATIC

REVIEWS, CONTROL FOR BIAS

THROUGH PRESCRIBED STUDY DESIGNS

AND BEST REPRESENT THE HIGHEST

LEVEL OF EVIDENCE.

IT'S ALSO IMPORTANT TO NOTE THAT

PUBLIC HEALTH EVIDENCE MAY NOT

BE AVAILABLE WITHIN TOP OF THE

TOP LEVEL CATEGORIES OF

EVIDENCE.

RESEARCHERS HAVE POINTED TO THE

FACT THAT UNLIKE IN CLINICAL

MEDICINE, PUBLIC HEALTH MEDICINE

OFTEN COMES FROM CROSS-SECTIONAL

STUDIES RATHER THAN SO-CALLED

GOLD STANDARD OF RANDOMIZED

CONTROL TRIALS.

STILL, THERE ARE SOME SYSTEMATIC

REVIEWS BEING PUBLISHED WITHIN

THE PUBLIC HEALTH LITERATURE AS

NOTED EARLIER IN THE

PRESENTATION, SUCCESSFUL

EVIDENCE-BASED PUBLIC HEALTH

REALIZE ON THE BEST AVAILABLE

EVIDENCE.

I'VE INTRODUCED A FEW RESOURCES

THAT ARE AVAILABLE YOU CAN USE

TO SEARCH THE LITERATURE AND

ONCE WE HAVE AN INFORMATION OF

THE RELATIVE QUALITY OF THEM IN

TERMS OF THE TYPES OF STUDIES TO

LOOK FOR WE CAN START THE

PROCESS OF GOING OUT AND LOOKING

TO SEE IF THERE IS A HIGH

QUALITY INFORMATION THAT

ADDRESSES OUR RESEARCH QUESTION.

FIRST OF ALL, THERE'S PUB MED.

I'M SURE MANY ARE FAMILIAR WITH

THE DATABASE BUT FOR THOSE WHO

AREN'T, PUBMED SAY FREE DATABASE

FROM THE NATIONAL LIBRARY OF

MEDICINE AND CONTAINS OVER 27

MILLION CITATIONS TO ARTICLES

FROM OVER 5,000 HEALTH-FOCUSSED

JOURNALS.

ACCESSING PUBMED IS EASY.

YOU JUST POP IN PUBMED.gov IN

THE URL LINE AND IT COMES RIGHT

UP.

TO GIVE THOSE OF YOU WHO ARE

LESS FAMILIAR WITH PUBMED AN

IDEA OF HOW TO USE IT, I'LL DO A

VERY BASIC SAMPLE SEARCH HERE.

THINK BACK TO OUR SCENARIO.

I'D LIKE TO TYPE IN CHILDHOOD

OBESITY NUTRITION INTERVENTION

IN THE SEARCH BOX AND HIT

SEARCH.

YOU CAN SEE QUITE A BIT OF

INFORMATION COMES UP AND IN THIS

CASE IT MAY BE HELPFUL TO NARROW

THE RESEARCH BY USING THE

FILTERS ON THE LEFT.

IF YOU CLICK ON CUSTOMIZE,

YOU'LL SEE A NUMBER OF DIFFERENT

ARTICLE TYPES IN THE POP-UP BOX

AND UNDER ARTICLE TYPES YOU CAN

FIND SYSTEMATIC REVIEWS WHICH

MAY BE HELPFUL IN REMEMBERING

SYSTEMATIC VIEWS SIT AT THE

HIERARCHY OF THE EVIDENCE-BASED

PYRAMID.

YOU CAN SEE SYSTEMATIC REVIEWS

ARE HIGHLIGHTED AND THE RESULTS

DROPPED FROM 2,000 PLUS TO UNDER

300.

THERE ARE ADDITIONAL WAYS TO

NARROW THE SEARCH WITH THE

FACETS ON THE LEFT.

ANOTHER HELPFUL RESEARCH IS

PUBMED HEALTH.

IT SPECIALIZES ON REVIEWS AND

TECHNICAL REPORTS.

THE INFORMATION IN THE DATABASE

IS BASED ON SYSTEMIC REVIEWS OF

CLINICAL TRIALS THAT SHOW WHAT

TREATMENT AND PREVENTION METHODS

HAVE BEEN PROVEN TO WORK AND

WHAT REMAINS UNKNOWN.

WHEN YOU DO SEARCH IN PUBMED

HEALTH IT PULLS UP SYSTEMATIC

REVIEWS AND CLINICAL

EFFECTIVENESS RESEARCH

AUTOMATICALLY.

THE PURPOSE IS TO PROVIDE

INFORMATION FOR CONSUMERS AND

CLINICIANS ON PREVENTION AND

TREATMENT OF CONDITIONS.

LET'S SEE HOW PUBMED WORKS BY

RUNNING THE SAME SEARCH,

CHILDHOOD OBESITY NUTRITION

INTERVENTION.

HERE'S WHAT THE RESULTS IN

PUBMED HEALTH LOOK LIKE.

YOU CAN SEE THE LAYOUT IS

SIMILAR TO PUBMED.

FILTERS TO THE LEFT AND THEN YOU

CAN SEE A LIST OF THE SYSTEMATIC

REVIEWS FROM PUBMED ON THE RIGHT

SO THEY'RE PULLING THE SAME

RESULTS WITH THE SYSTEMIC

REVIEWS FILTER.

BUT IN ADDITION TO ITEMS FROM

PUBMED, PUBMED HEALTH HAS ALSO

CONTAINED RESEARCH AND SYSTEMIC

REVIEWS FROM PARTNERS LIKE THE

AGENCY FOR HEALTH CARE RESEARCH,

THE COCHRAN COLLABORATION, THE

CENTER FOR REVIEWS AND

DISSEMINATION OR DARE, THE

NATIONAL CANCER INSTITUTE, THE

NATIONAL HEART, LUNG AND BLOOD

AND SEVERAL OTHERS.

ANOTHER GOOD RESOURCE IS THE

COMMUNITY GUIDE.

THIS WEBSITE PROVIDESES

PROVIDES A TASK FORCE AND HAS

INTERVENTIONS TO PREVENT DISEASE

ACROSS A VARIETY OF ENVIRONMENTS

SUCH AS YOUR STATE, COMMUNITY,

BUSINESS OR SCHOOL.

THE COMMUNITY GUIDE REVIEWS ARE

DESIGNED TO ANSWER JUST THREE

QUESTIONS.

THE FIRST IS WHAT HAS WORKED FOR

OTHERS AND HOW WELL.

THE SECOND IS WHAT MIGHT THIS

INTERVENTION APPROACH COST AND

WHAT AM I LIKELY TO ACHIEVE

THROUGH MY INVESTMENT AND THE

THIRD QUESTION IS WHAT ARE THE

EVIDENCE GAPS.

NOW, THERE ARE A FEW WAYS TO

SEARCH THE COMMUNITY GUIDE AND

ONE WAY IS TO USE THE TOPIC

DROP-DOWN MENU.

HERE YOU CAN SEE A NUMBER OF

DIFFERENT TOPICS YOU CAN

EXPLORE.

AS A RESULT, YOU'LL SEE WHAT IS

AVAILABLE AND ANOTHER WAY TO

SEARCH IS ON THE HOME PAGE.

AGAIN, THINKING OF OUR ORIGINAL

EXAMPLE WE CAN RUN A SEARCH

USING THE SAME KEY WORDS,

CHILDHOOD OBESITY, NUTRITION,

INTERVENTION.

THE SEARCH RESULTS BRING US TO A

PAGE THAT PROVIDES A NUMBER OF

DIFFERENT WAYS TO FILTER THROUGH

RESULTS.

WE CAN NARROW BY TOPICS OR

AUDIENCE.

WE CAN ALSO NARROW RESULTS BY

USING THE TABS SEEN IN THE

CENTER OF THE SCREEN AND ONE OF

THE REALLY NICE THINGS ABOUT THE

COMMUNITY GUIDE IS IT PROVIDES

THE TAX FORCE RECOMMENDATIONS.

SO IF YOU REMEMBER THIS SAY

COLLECTION OF FINDINGS FROM THIS

COMMUNITY PREVENTION SERVICES

TASK FORCE.

YOU CAN SEE AS YOU'RE LOOKING AT

THE SYSTEMATIC REVIEWS HOW IT

RATED THE STUDIES.

IN THE FIRST EXAMPLE YOU CAN SEE

THE TASK FORCE SAW IT WAS

INEFFICIENT EVIDENCE SO IT MAY

OR MAY NOT BE WHAT YOU WOULD

THINK OF AS AN EFFECTIVE

INTERVENTION.

THE STUDY DIDN'T COME BACK WITH

ENOUGH EVIDENCE TO MAKE IT

RECOMMEND HOWEVER IN SECOND

RESULT THE REVIEW IS

RECOMMENDED.

WE CAN ALSO SEE THE DATES THE

REVIEWS TOOK PLACE SO THIS SAY

RELATIVELY RECENTLY REVIEWED

STUDY AND MAY BE IS WORTH

FURTHER EXPLORING AND

REPLICATING.

IT ALSO PROVIDES A TOOLS TAB AND

YOU CAN FIND MATERIALS THAT HELP

YOU WITH YOUR ASSESSMENT

EVALUATION PIECES OF YOUR

INTERVENTIONS.

THERE ARE ALSO ACTION STORIES

THAT PROVIDE REAL-LIFE EXAMPLES

OF HOW FINDINGS HAVE BEEN USED

RELATED TO YOUR SEARCH.

SO THAT THERE'S A NEAT FEATURE

TO SEE INTERVENTIONS IN ACTION.

FINALLY THERE ARE OTHER

RESOURCES AVAILABLE.

THE LAST ONE COMES FROM HHRQ AND

THEY DO A LOT OF THINGS BUT

THEY'RE WIDELY KNOWN FOR

CREATING TRAIN MATERIAL FOR

HOSPITAL AND HEALTH CARE SYSTEMS

TO IMPROVE PATIENT CARE AND FOR

THE CREATION OF GUIDELINES.

YOU TYPE IT IN AND YOU'LL FIND

GUIDELINE FOR PEDIATRICS,

INTERNAL MEDICINE, INFECTIOUS

DISEASES AND MORE.

WE HAVE BACKGROUND NOISE AND I

CAN'T MUTE PEOPLE VIA PHONE.

ALICE, IF YOU CAN HEAR ME YOU

NEED TO MUTE YOUR PHONE

CONVERSATION.

>> SORRY ABOUT THAT, GUYS.

FOR THOSE NOT FAMILIAR IT'S A

CONTROLLED VOCABULARY USED TO

INDEX RESOURCES FOR A STANDARD

LANGUAGE.

YOU'LL SEE IT IN PUBMED BUT YOU

CAN USE IT IN THE NATIONAL

GUIDELINE CLEARING HOUSE.

SO IF YOU CLICK ON THE MESH TAG

YOU'LL BE TAKEN TO A PAGE WHERE

YOU CAN BROWSE BY DIFFERENT

SECTIONS.

AND IF YOU BROWSE TREATMENT

SECTION YOU'LL SEE ADDITIONAL

TOPICS AND YOU CAN FIND THE

OPTION ENVIRONMENT

AND PUBLIC

HEALTH.

NOW -- ACTUALLY, I WANTED TO

TELL YOU A LITTLE BIT MORE ABOUT

THE GUIDELINE CLEARING HOUSE

WEBSITE.

ACTUALLY, THERE ARE GUIDELINES

THAT ARE RELATED TO THE

ENVIRONMENT IN PUBLIC HEALTH AND

YOU CAN FURTHER FILTER BY

CLICKING ON THE SUMMARY

INTEREST.

YOU CAN LIMIT YOUR RESEARCH BY

FOCUSSING ON TARGET POPULATION

CHARACTERISTICS, INTENDED USERS,

METHODS USED AND MANY MORE.

WE.

WON'T GO INTO FURTHER DETAIL

WITH THE COMPARISON FEATURE BUT

IT'S A PRETTY ROBUST FEATURE TO

ALLOW YOU TO SELECT METHODOLOGY

OR SCOPES TO COMPARE AND AFTER

YOU RUN THE COMPARISON YOU'RE

ABLE TO SAVE THE XLS FILE

CONTAINING THE COMPARED DATA.

UNFORTUNATELY, THE FUNDING TO

SUPPORT HHRQs NATIONAL GUIDELINE

CLEARING HOUSE CONTRACT ENDS

THIS YEAR ON JULY 16, 2018.

AND TO LIEU TIME FOR SUMMARIES

AND NATIONAL GUIDELINE CLEARING

HOUSE, EXTEND ADHERENCE TO TRUST

WORTHY STANDARDS OR ASSESSMENTS

TO BE POSTED IN THE NATIONAL

GUIDELINE CLEARING HOUSE WEBSITE

BY JULY 2018.

GUIDELINES ARE NO LONGER BEING

ACCEPTED FOR ENCOLLUSION.

-- FOR INCLUSION.

I ENCOURAGE YOU TO VISIT THE

WEBSITE FOR ADDITIONAL

INFORMATION THAT HHRQ WILL POST

REGARDING NEXT STEPS.

THAT WAS SOME VERY UNFORTUNATE

NEWS THAT CAME OUT RECENTLY SO

I'M HOPING THEY WILL DISCOVER

ADDITION FUNDING OR ANOTHER

ALTERNATIVE WILL EXIST.

EVALUATION SO WE HAVE AN

INTRODUCTION TO A FEW RESOURCES,

I'D LIKE TO SEARCH THE

LITERATURE HELLO WE WANT TO

START PRIORITIZING PROGRAMS AND

THIS TAKES THE FINAL STEP OF THE

EVIDENCE-BASED BASED PROCESS TO

EVALUATE THE PROGRAM OR POLICY.

>> I'M GOING GO INTO A LOT OF

DEPTH -- I'M FOT -- NOT GOING

TO GO INTO A LOT OF DEPTH ON

DIFFERENT EVALUATION TYPES BUT

THOUGH EVALUATION IS LISTED AS

THE LAST STEP, THERE ARE

DIFFERENT TYPES OF EVALUATIONS

AND IT MAY TAKE PLACE AT

DIFFERENT PARTS OF THE PROCESS.

FOR EXAMPLE, YOU MAY CONDUCT A

FORMATIVE EVALUATION BEFORE THE

PROGRAM TO DETERMINE IF IT'S

APPROPRIATE FOR A COMMUNITY OR

PERHAPS WHILE THE INTERVENTION

IS TAKING PLACE YOU MAY PERFORM

A PROCESS EVALUATION TO

DETERMINE IF WHAT YOU'RE DOING

IS WHAT YOU INTENDED AND IF

THERE ARE ADJUSTMENTS YOU NIGHT

MEDE -- MIGHT NEED IT MAKE ALONG

THE WAY OR FOCUS ON AN IMPACT

EVALUATION TO SEE IF THE

OBJECTIVES WERE MET.

ANY OF THOSE COULD

BE

APPROACHED.

FORTUNATELY, WE DON'T HAVE TO BE

EVALUATION EXPERTS TO CONDUCT

EVALUATIONS.

THERE'S A NUMBER OF GOOD ONLINE

RESOURCES THAT CAN HELP WALK YOU

THROUGH THE PROCESS.

AND THE SAME RESOURCES FOR

COMMUNITY-ASSESSMENT PHASE HAVE

RESOURCES FOR EVALUATION.

SO WE'RE BACK IN THE COMMUNITY

TOOLBOX AGAIN WHICH OFFERS

ANOTHER TOOL KIT WHICH FOCUSES

ON EVALUATING THE INITIATIVE.

SO IT'S PRESENTED IN A VERY

DIFFERENT FORMAT WHERE THERE'S

AN OUTLINE OF THE STEPS NEEDED

TO BE TAKEN WHICH INCLUDES

RELATED RESOURCES AND THERE'S

EXAMPLES TO BE REVIEWED.

THE CENTERS FOR DISEASE CONTROL

AND PREVENTION ALSO OFFER

DIFFERENT DOCUMENTS AND WORK

BOOKS AS WELL AS INFORMATION ON

DIFFERENT FRAME WORKS AND

THERE'S A SELF-STUDY GUIDE FOR

EVALUATION IN PUBLIC HEALTH.

FINALLY, YOU'LL REMEMBER OUR

NATIONAL EVALUATION OFFICE

INCLUDED TWO BOOKLETS RELATED TO

COMMUNITY ASSESSMENT.

THE OFFICE ALSO HAS A THIRD

BOOKLET THAT FOCUSES

SPECIFICALLY ON COLLECTING AND

ANALYZING EVALUATION DATA.

THIS SAY DOWNLOADABLE DOCUMENT

THAT PROVIDES AN VALUATION PIECE

OF COMMUNITY OUTREACH.

IT ALLOWS US TO ACCESS MORE AND

HIGHER QUALITY INFORMATION ON

WHAT WORKS.

YOU SAW THIS WITH THE COMMUNITY

GUIDE WHICH PROVIDES PROGRAMS

WHICH HAVE ALREADY BEEN REVIEWED

AND RATED.

THIS LEADS US TO OUR SECOND

BENEFIT WHICH IS A HIGHER

LIKELIHOOD OF SUCCEEDING AND

IMPLEMENTING A PROGRAM.

IF WE KNOW IT WORKS ELSEWHERE WE

CAN BETTER DEMONSTRATE THE

EVIDENCE AS TO WHY IT WOULD WORK

IN OUR COMMUNITY TOO.

WE CAN ALSO SEE A GREATER

WORKFORCE CONNECTIVITY.

THERE'S TWO EXAMPLES I'LL GIVE

TO POINT OUT THE FOURTH POINT

WHERE EVIDENCE-BASED PUBLIC

HEALTH IS IMPORTANT.

MANY ARE PROBABLY FAMILIAR WITH

THE PROGRAM DARE, OR DRUG ABUSE

RESISTANCE EDUCATION.

MAYBE YOU'VE SEEN THE T-SHIRTS.

IT'S A PROGRAM THAT'S BEEN

WIDELY USED ACROSS U.S. SCHOOLS

AND IN FACT RESEARCHERS FOUND IT

COSTS ABOUT $750 MILLION ON AN

ANNUAL BASIS TO IMPLEMENT THE

PROGRAM.

HOWEVER, MULTIPLE RESEARCH

STUDIES AND SYSTEMATIC REVIEWS

HAVE BEEN CONDUCTED AND FOUND

THE DARE HAS NO OR NEGLIGIBLE

IMPACT ON PREVENTING SUBSTANCE

ABUSE AMONG CHILDREN AND TEENS.

SO IF YOU'RE THINKING ABOUT THAT

TYPE OF PROGRAM, PERHAPS IT'S

NOT THE BEST INTERVENTION AND IF

YOU'D GONE THROUGH AN

EVIDENCE-BASED PUBLIC HEALTH

FRAMEWORK YOU WOULD HAVE

UNCOVERED THAT.

THE SECOND EXAMPLE IS IN 2001 A

SYSTEM REVIEW WAS DONE TO SEE

LAWS THAT REDUCED BLOOD ALCOHOL

CONTENT FROM .10 HAD A MEDIAN

DECREASE IN FATAL ALCOHOL MOTOR

VEHICLE CRASHES OR ABOUT 7%.

THE FINDINGS WERE INSTRUMENTAL

IN PASSING DIFFERENT POLICIES AT

A FEDERAL LEVEL THAT

INCENTIVIZED OTHER STATES TO

ADOPT A LOWER B.A.C.

LEVEL AND

BY RESEARCH THEY HAVE ESTIMATED

IT HAS SAVED 400 AND 600 LIVES

PER YEAR.

SO WE TALKED HOW PUBLIC HEALTH

HAD INCREASED HEALTH CHANGES CAN

HAVE ON LIFE EXPECTANCY.

I'M NOT GOING TO GO INTO DETAIL

OF WHAT ACCREDITATION BUT I WANT

TO POINT OUT THAT PUBLIC HEALTH

DEPARTMENTS LOOKING TO ACHIEVE

THIS MAY ADHERE TO DOMAIN 10

CHMANY OFS

WHICH IS EVIDENCE BASED

PRACTICES.

SO JUST TO RECAP.

EVIDENCE-BASED PUBLIC HEALTH

INCLUDES AN EVIDENCE-BASED

COMMISSION MAKING PROCESS -- LET

TRY AGAIN.

EVIDENCE-BASED PUBLIC HEALTH

LOOKS AT THE BEST AVAILABLE

RESEARCH AND FOCUSES ON

COMMUNITY NEEDS AND

INCORPORATING YOUR PERSONAL

EXPERTISE.

THERE'S A SEVEN-STEP PROCESS

THAT EVIDENCE-BASED PUBLIC

HEALTH FOLLOWS WITH SEARCHING

THROUGH LITERATURE AND

FINALIZING WITH EVALUATION.

AS WE'VE DEMONSTRATED, THERE ARE

NUMEROUS RESOURCES OUT THERE TO

HELP GUIDE YOU THROUGH THE

PROCESS.

THAT'S ALL I HAVE FOR YOU AT

THIS POINT.

I'D JUST LIKE TO ASK IF ANYONE

HAS QUESTIONS ABOUT THE

RESOURCES OR COMMENTS ON THE

MATERIALS WE COVERED TODAY.

I DO SEE THAT GENIE HAS ASKED

ABOUT HHRQ FUNDING PAST JULY AND

THE RESPONSE WAS SEVERAL

AGENCIES HOPE TO BE ABLE TO HELP

THE CONTINUATION BUT THAT

DEPENDS ON OUTCOMES OF THE

APPROPRIATIONS BILL TO BE PASSED

TOMORROW.

THES IS AN OPPORTUNITY TO

PROVIDE FEEDBACK TO YOUR REPS

AND HHS SECRETARY.

I HOPE MANY OF WILL DO THAT

BECAUSE THE GUIDELINE CLEARING

HOUSE HAS BEEN AN EXCELLENT

RESOURCE FOR PUBLIC HEALTH OVER

THE PAST SEVERAL YEAR.

ARE THERE ANY OTHER QUESTIONS?

PEOPLE CAN DROP THOSE IN THE

CHAT BOX OR IF YOU PUT UP YOUR

HAND, MADDY CAN UNMUTE YOU.

>> YOU AS THE HOST HAVE TO

UNMUTE.

I'M NOT SEEING ANYBODY WITH

THEIR HAND UP SO FEEL FREE TO

POST IN THE CHAT BOX IF HAVE YOU

A QUESTION.

OKAY.

I'M NOT SEEING QUESTIONS SO

PERHAPS WE CAN END A FEW MINUTES

EARLY.

WHAT ABOUT PUBLIC HEALTH TOPICS

NOT FUNDED BY THE FEDERAL

GOVERNMENT.

CAN YOU CLARIFY THAT?

I KNOW THAT GUN VIOLENCE IS

DEFINITELY AN ISSUE RIGHT NOW

AND HAS BEEN FOR SEVERAL YEARS.

I KNOW THERE THERE ARE A NUMBER

OF RESOURCES THAT EXIST.

THE AMERICAN PUBLIC HEALTH

ASSOCIATION RECENTLY, I BELIEVE,

PROVIDED OPEN ACCESS TO

INFORMATION ON DATA RELATED TO

GUN VIOLENCE SO THAT'S ONE PLACE

THAT YOU CAN GO FOR THAT

INFORMATION.

JOANNE, I'M GLAD TO HEAR THAT.

YES, A COPY OF THE SLIDES WILL

BE AVAILABLE.

THE WEBSITE -- YOU CAN VISIT THE

WEBSITE, I BELIEVE, AND DOWNLOAD

THAT INFORMATION THERE WITHIN A

FEW DAYS.

AND IF YOU REGISTERED FOR THE

COURSE YOU'LL ALSO BE ABLE TO

ACCESS THE INFORMATION AS WE'LL

SEND A LINK YOU CAN GO IT.

-- GO TO.

ANY OTHER QUESTIONS?

I'M GLAD, TARA.

I'M GLAD YOU WERE ABLE TO

CONNECT.

THE LINK TO RECORDING WILL BE

SENT OUT PROBABLY WITHIN THE

NEXT FEW DAYS.

OKAY.

IF WE DON'T HAVE FURTHER

QUESTIONS, I'M GOING TO GO AHEAD

AND STOP THE RECORDING AND END

THE SESSION BUT PLEASE FEEL FREE

TO CONNECT WITH MYSELF OR THE

NATIONAL LIBRARY OF MEDICINE IF

YOU HAVE OTHER QUESTION.

I JUST WANT TO REMIND YOU THIS

PRESENTATION WAS ORIGINALLY

BROUGHT TO YOU BY DEREK JOHNSON

ELAINE DABATELI AND I THANK THEM

FOR THE PRESENTATION AND I WANT

THANK THE NNLM WEB COLLABORATORS

AND MADDY, AND THE CAPTIONER,

JEROME FOR HIS HELP.

AND AS I MENTIONED AT THE

BEGINNING OF THE WEBINAR, IF

YOU'D LIKE TO OBTAIN C.E.

CREDIT

FOR THE COURSE, COMPLETE THE

SURVEY YOU'LL SEE AUTOMATICALLY

AT THE END OF THE SESSION AND IT

WILL DIRECT YOU TO WHERE TO GO

TO --

>> I'LL POST THE LINK ALSO.

>> AND THAT WILL ALLOW YOU TO

COMPLETE A SHORT SURVEY AND THEN

LEAD YOU TO THE LOCATION WHERE

YOU WILL BE ABLE TO GET A C.E.

SO MADE'S

MADDY'S GOT THAT UP THERE.

OKAY.

IF ANYBODY HAS PROBLEMS, DO LET

US KNOW.

SO THANK YOU VERY MUCH AND I'LL

LOOK FORWARD TO TALKING WITH YOU

IN A FUTURE PRESENTATION.

TAKE CARE.

Government & Public Administration - Duration: 2:43.

My favorite part about this job is I'm a huge government nerd and so just being at the center

of where everything is happening is really cool.

And then doing communications, I get to be an inch deep and a mile wide in all these

different policy areas.

So, I get to learn a lot of information about policy but being able to condense that into

short snippets that might help people understand.

My name is Paige Waltz, and I am the digital media coordinator for a member of House Leadership.

The CTE courses that I took while in high school were culinary arts, interior design

and leadership, and leadership was what has translated most into my career now.

But, in terms of knowing self-awareness and being able to read rooms and be able to take

an idea that you have and then pitch it in a way that people will respond to and get

your ideas to come into fruition.

On a daily basis, I serve as the official photographer or one of the official photographers

for my boss.

I also write a lot of social media posts and maintain his website.

Taking CTE courses in high school is one of the electives you can take that teaches you

a tangible skill.

Whether you want to take culinary arts to eat food that's kind of why I took it or take

a technology class that might give you a tangible skill, I think it's very beneficial.

There are definitely worse things that you could spend your time doing.

Going into college, I was always a good high school student, but I had only got accepted

to one school and so that was a little disheartening and so when I was applying for graduate school,

of course, I had a job to fall back on but I really wanted to go to grad school and so

I was nervous applying that I wouldn't get in any place or would only have one option.

Do not be afraid to ask for more work and to be a team player.

No task is beneath you if it helps the team and helps your boss look successful.

A motto of my current boss is to do your job with joy and as corny as it sounds it's so

accurate.

Because if you're not willing to do your job with joy and have a positive attitude, you

should probably find another job because you're not giving one hundred percent into your career.

You're not being successful.

CHAIR: REPRESENTATIVE DEAN; HAVE YOU HAD A OPPORTUNITY TO

REVIEW THE MINUTES?

>> REPATIVE DEAN; I HAVE NOT

BUT IF YOU GIVE ME A SECOND

I'LL LOOK AT THEM

QUICK. MR. CHAIR; I MAKE A MOTION TO MOVE

THEM.

>> CHAIR: REPRESENTATIVE DEAN

MOVES THE MINUTES FROM

MANCH 28; ALL IN FAVOR

AYE. OPPOSED? THE MINUTES ARE APPROVED.

REPRESENTATIVE HOPPE.

MEMBERS RKS THE CHAIR WILL MOVE HOUSE

FILE 3958 TO LAY OVER FOR

POSSIBLE INCLUSION. THERE IS A

AMENDMENT; THE A1 AMENDMENT.

THE CHAIR WILL MOVE THE

AMENDMENT. REPRESENTATIVE HOPPE; IF YOU CAN INTRODUCE-ALL

THOSE IN FAVOR; AYE. OPPOSED?

THE AMENDMENT HAS BEEN

ADOPTED. REPRESENTATIVE HOPPE; COULD

YOU INTRODUCE YOURSELF AND

START WITH YOUR TESTIMONY.

>> REPRESENTATIVE HOPPE: I'M

JOE

HOPPE STATE REPRESENTATIVE FROM [INAUDIBLE COMMENTS] HOUSE

FILE 3958 IS WAS SOMETHING

ENTITLED TO SIMPLIFY THIS WHOLE

PROCEDURE; AND REDUCE THE FEE

FOR PEOPLE THAT ARE-FOR BANKS

LOOKING AT COURT JUDGMENTS

AND WITH THAT; WE CAN

CERTAINLY HAVE OTHER PEOPLE COME AND TALK

ABOUT IT. I KNOW THERE ARE

SOME CONCERNS; MR.

ELWOOD WORKED ON THIS

BILL; HIS LANGUAGE IS WHAT WE PUT IN THE

A1 AMENDMENT TO MAKE IT

AMENABLE TO THE LEGAL AID FOLKS

AND I THINK IT IS STILL A

WORK IN PROGRESS.

>> REPRESENTATIVE CONSIDINE:

THE AMENDMENT WENT FLYING

THROUGH BEFORE WE HAD A CHANCE

TO CHAT ABOUT

THAT. WHO'S AMENDMENT WAS IT?

>> CHAIR: THE AUTHORS

AMENDMENT.

>>

REPRESENTATIVE CONSIDINE: CAN WE ASK THE AUTHOR ABOUT

THAT >> REPRESENTATIVE HOPPE: THE

AMENDMENT WENT FLYING THROUGH;

THAT IS SUBSTANTIALLY MR.

ELWOOD'S AMENDMENT WHICH I

LIKE. I HAD THIS

LEGISLATION BROUGHT TO ME BY SOMEONE IN THE

DISTRICT THAT WORKS FOR A

BANK AND THOUGHT THIS IS A

SIMPLIFICATION OF THE WORK HE

GOES THROUGH ON A DAILY OR

WEEKLY PROCESS; BUT I LIKE TO

CHECK WITH MR. ELWOOD BECAUSE I

VALUE HIS OPINION; I ALSO CHECK

WITH MINNESOTA BANKERS AND

CREDIT UNIONS AND I CAN LET

MR. ELWOOD TALK ABOUT THE

AMENDMENT.

>> RON ELWOOD: LEGAL AID; I

WANT TO THANK

REPRESENTATIVE HOPPE SO MUCH FOR CHECKING WITH

US TO SEE IF

THERE ARE CONCERNS ON THE ISSUE AND BEING

SO OPEN TO OUR SUGGESTIONS.

THE AMENDMENT SIMPLY DOES THIS;

WE WERE CONCERNED THAT IF WE

REDUCED THE RENEWAL

JUDGMENT RATE TO SUCH A LOW LEVEL THAT

IT WOULD CREATE A UNINTENDED

AND PREVERSE INCENTIVE FOR DEBT

BUYERS TO RENEW THE

JUDGMENTS OVER AND OVER AGAIN; AND AS WE

KNOW THE FUTHER YOU GET FROM

THE ARINLINAL CREDITOR THE MORE

PROBLEMS HAPPEN AND SO

WE JUST FELT IF IT IS THE ORIGINAL

CREDITOR THAT MADE SINCE WHICH

IS WHAT THE BANK WAS AND THEN

WE SORT OF BALANCED THE SCALES

THIS WAY AND THAT IS WHAT THE

AMENDMENT DOES.

>> REPRESENTATIVE CONSIDINE:

THANK YOU; MR. CHAIR. DO

THEY NOT JUST ADD THAT ON TO THEIR

FEES WHEN THEY ARE COLLECTING?

>> MR. ELWOOD: IN OUR

EXPERIENCE IF THEY WOULD HAVE

TO RENEW-BY THE TIME THEY GOT

DOWN 10 YEARS IF THEY HAVE TO

RENEW THE JUDGMENT; THE HIGHER

FILING FEE HAS PROVEN TO BE A

DISINCENTIVE RENEWING THOSE

JUDGMENTS BECAUSE BY THAT TIME

THE EVIDENCE IS SO PHLEGMSY IS

UNLIKELY THEY COULD ACTUALLY

PROVE

IT. >> REPRESENTATIVE DEAN:

>>

REPRESENTATIVE UGLEM: THANK YOU; MR. CHAIR. TO MR. ELWOOD

OR REPRESENTATIVE HOPPE; SO I'M

ALL REDUCING THE FEES AND

EVERYTHING ELSE; AND WHAT

HAPPENS WHEN A JUDGMENT IS

ASSIGNED WHEN A ENTITY FOR

INSTANCE LIKE A BUSINESS SELLS

AND A NEW COMPANY TAKES OVER

YOU HAD A JUDGMENT AND SO IF

THE JUDGMENT IS ASSIGNED TO A

FUTURE ENTITY; THEY STILL HAVE TO PAY THE HIGHER RATE NOW; OR

WOULD THEY BE ABLE TO PAY $40?

>> MR. ELWOOD: MR. CHAIR;

REPRESENTATIVE UGLEM; IT

DOES SAY UNLESS IT IS THE

ORIGINAL CREDITOR THEY PAY THE HIGHER.

>> REPRESENTATIVE UGLEM:

THANK YOU: WELL; HAVE YOU CONCERNED

REPRESENTATIVE HOPPE ABOUT

KEEPING EVERYBODY EQUAL ON SOMETHING LIKE THIS?

>> REPRESENTATIVE HOPPE: MR.

CHAIR; REPRESENTATIVE UGLEM; WE

ARE STILL

CONSIDERING EVERYTHING. I DON'T

WANT TO-THIS BILL WILL BE LAID OVER

AND I'LL WILLING TO TALK

ABOUT ANY PARTS OF IT. I DON'T

WANT TO DO SMJ THAT

IS COUNTER PRODUCTIVE AND I THINK WHAT WE

ARE LOOKING FOR HERE IS MORE OR

LESS A SIMPLIFICATION AS

WELL AS LOWERING OF THE FEE BUT I'LL

WILLING TO TALK ABOUT

IT. >> CHAIR: MR. CARLSON.

>> THANK YOU; JOE

CARLSON; LEGAL RESEARCH

GOVERNMENT AFFAIRS IN ST. PAUL; AND

ONE OF THE GROUPS OF LAWYERS I

REPRESENT ARE CREDITOR LAWYERS;

THEY REPRESENT THE CREDITORS IN

THESE SITUATION JZ

FOUND OUT ABOUT THE

AMENDMENT LAST NIGHT WHEN IT WAS POSTED AND JUST

WANTED TO MAKE SURE WE

UNDERSTAND WHAT IS HAPPENING

HERE. I APPRECIATE AND HAVE

WORKED WITH LEGAL AID ON THE

ISSUE OF PURCHASE DEBT AND IN

FACT IN 2013 WE PASSED A

NEW STATUTE TO ADDRESS THE VERY

REAL PROBLEMS THROUGHOUT WITH

PURCHASED DEBT; THEY CALLED IT

[INAUDIBLE COMMENTS] AND PEOPLE

WERE MAKING A PAYMENT AND WE

TOOK A REAL EFFORT AND

REPRESENTATIVE HILSTROM CARRIED

THE BILL TO GET AFTER THAT

PROBLEM. THAT'S NOT WHAT WE

ARE TALKING ABOUT WITH THIS

LEGISLATION HERE.

REPRESENTATIVE

HOPPE'S UNDERLYING BILL WHICH WE

CERTAINLY SUPPORT; WOULD

BRING MINNESOTA INTO LINE WITH OTHER

JURISDICTIONS. WE CAN REALLY

FIND NO OTHER STATE THAT

CHARGES A FULL FILING FEE

SIMPLY TO RENEW A JUDGMENT.

THAT IS $360. ISSUES OF

EVIDENCE OF THE DEBT BEING

OLDER; THAT'S ALL IN THE PAST.

I HAD A JUDGMENT THAT HAS BEEN

DOCKETED FOR UP TO 10 YEARS.

YOU ARE NOT GOING TO RELITIGATE

THAT ISSUE. THE JUDGMENT IS

THERE; IN FACT IF IT IS A FRAUD

YULANT JUDGMENT WE HAVE A STATUTE THAT

PROTECTS THE CONSUMER AND IT IS A GOOD

THING WE HAVE IT; BUT 5408.14 GIVES A

CONSUMER THE OPPORTUNITY TO

CHALLENGE A

FRAUDULENT JUDGMENT. THE STATUTE OF

LIMITATIONS ON THAT IS THREE

YEARS AFTER THE JUDGMENT IS

DOCKETED. WE ARE TALKING ABOUT

A 10 YEAR WINDOW HERE; SO THEY

HAVEN'T CONTESTED AS

FRAUDULENT; THEY HAVEN'T

DISCHARGED IT IN

BANKRUPTCY. LAST YEAR WE FOUND OUT

THAT PEOPLE THAT WANT TO GO ON

DISCHARGE THE JUDGMENTS WERE

CHARGED THE $360. WE FIXED

THAT AND MOVED THAT DOWN TO 5.

WHAT WE ARE TALK ABOUT HERE IS

A VALID JUDGMENT IN PLACE FOR

UP TO 10 YEARS; AND TRYING TO

MAKE A DISTINCTION BETWEEN AN

ASSIGNED DEBT; NOT DEBT BUYER

JUST ANY ASSIGNED DEBT THAT CAN

HAPPEN FOR ANY REASON SO LONG

TAZ IS DONE BY STATUTE WHICH IS

548.13 AND

WE SAY EVERYBODY ELSE YOU PAY $40; BUT IF IT IS

ASSIGNED IN A BUSINESS

TRANSACTION OR OTHERWISE YOU

NOW UNDER THIS AMENDMENT BE

FORCED TO PAY THE $360 JUST TO

PROTECT YOUR RIGHTS AND PEOPLE

DO RENEW THESE DEBTS BUT THEY

DO IT WHEN IT ISN'T DISCHARGED

IN BANK ROPY AND HAVE THE

BELIEF THE

DEBTORS HATHE ABILITY TO PAY. SIMPLY SAYING

IN THAT SITUATION THE DEBTOR

WILLOW RR ANOTHER $360 ON TO

WHAT THEY ALREADY OWE SEEMS TO

BE A

DISCRIMINATION WE SHOULD THINK ABOUT AND I DID EXPRESS

THIS TO REPRESENTATIVE HOPPE

BEFORE THE COMMITTEE. WE ARE

FINE WITH LOWERING THE FEE BUT

TREAT EVERYONE THE SAME;

THAT IS OUR POINT. THANK YOU MR.

CHAIRMAN AND MEMBERS. ALSO; IF

THERE WAS A DIFFERENCE IN THE

COURT; IF THE COURT HAD TO DO

ADDITIONAL WORK ON THIS DEBT TO

RENEW THIS JUDGMENT I

UNDERSTAND THAT; THEY DON'T; IT

IS A ELECTRONIC FILING; YOU

CLICK A BUTTON AND IT IS

RENEWED. IT IS THE SAME FOR

EVERYBODY. THANK YOU MR.

CHAIR; HAPPY TO ANSWER

QUESTIONS. >> REPRESENTATIVE HOPPE: THANK YOU MR. CHAIR AND MR. CARLSON.

I HAVEN'T BEEN ABLE TO GET A

HOLD OF MY CONSTITUENT WHO WORK

FRZ THE BANK. I THINK I WILL

SEE HIM TOMORROW MORNING BUT

FAILING THAT IT WILL BE EARLY

NEXT WEEK. I'LL TALK ABOUT TO

HIM ABOUT THIS AND WILLING TO

WITH MR. CARLSON AND ELWOOD AND

ALL PARTIES INVOLVED AND SEE IF

WE CAN COME UP WITH SOMETHING

THAT CAN BE POSSIBLY INCLUDED.

>> CHAIR:

GREAT. >>

REPRESENTATIVE DEAN: THANK YOU; MR. CHAIR. SO; I'M

LOOKING AT THE FISCAL NOTE AND

WONDERING HOW THERE CAN BE NO

IMPLICATION IF WE ARE GOING

FROM $285 DOWN TO $40 AND I'M

JUST WONDERING IF THIS IS THE

TYPE OF THING THAT IS HARD TO

ACTUALLY MAKE A DETERMINATION

ON AND IT APPEARS THAT COURTS

HAVE SAID THAT THE AMOUNT OF

JUDGMENTS RENEWED AND UNKNOWN

AND CANNOT BE DETERMINED; WHICH

I MEAN; I AM TRYING TO

UNDERSTAND WHY THERE ISN'T A

FISCAL IMPLICATION WITH

THIS. IF MR. [INAUDIBLE COMMENTS] CAN

SPEAK TO THE FISCAL NOTE.

>> MR.

CHAIR; REPRESENTATIVE DEAN; I DID HAVE A

CONVERSATION WITH THE COURTS ABOUT THAT THIS

MORNING. I DO HAVE TO SAY

HOWEVER; THE FISCAL NOTES WERE

INADVERTENTLY LEFT OUT OF MY

PACKET TODAY SO DOPT HAVE ONE

IN FRONT OF ME. MY

CONVERSATION WITH THE COURTS

BASICALLY REVOLVEED AROUND THE

FACT THERE WASN'T

AIGATE NUMBER OF THESE AND DON'T THINK THE

AMOUNT OF REVENUE OR

DIFFERENCE IN REVENUE WOULD BE MATERIAL.

>> CHAIR: ANY OTHER QUESTIONS

FROM MEMBERS? ANY PUBLIC

TESTIMONY ON THIS BILL?

REPRESENTATIVE HOPPE; ANY LAST

REMARKS?

>> REPRESENTATIVE HOPPE: THANK

YOU FOR YOUR CONSIDERATION.

>> CHAIR: THE BILL IS

LAID OVER FOR POSSIBLE INCLUSION.

PLEASE KEEP WORKING ON IT AND

LET US KNOW OF ANY PROGRESS.

NEXT BILL TODAY WILL BE HOUSE

FILE 3260 WITH

REPRESENTATIVE LOHMER. REPRESENTATIVE LOHMER

YOU WISH TO MAKE THE MOTION FOR

POSSIBLE INCLUSION?

>>

REPRESENTATIVE LOHMER: THANK YOU MR. CHAIR; I MOVE

HOUSE FILE 3260 TO BE LAID OVER

FOR POSSIBLE AMCLUSION.

>> CHAIR: GO AHEAD WITH YOUR

PRESENTATION YOU HAVE

A AMENDMENT?

>> REPRESENTATIVE LOHMER: I

LIKE TO MOVE THE 3260-1

AMENDMENT.

>> CHAIR: THAT AMENDMENT JUST

CHANGES THE EFFECTIVE DATES?

>> REPRESENTATIVE LOHMER:

YES.

>> CHAIR: ALL IN FAVOR OF THE

A1 AMENDMENT; AYE.

? OPPOSED? THE AMENDMENT IS APPROVED GO

AHODE WITH YOUR TESTIMONY.

>>

REPRESENTATIVE LOHMER: THIS IS THE POSITION OF A AUTHORITY

LEGISLATION OF 2018. SO; THE

MINNESOTA COALITION AGAINST

SEXUAL ASSAULT DEVELOPED THIS

LEGISLATION WITH

PROSECUTORS FROM AROUND THE STATE AND

PUBLIC POLICY COMMITTEE.

MINNESOTA COUNTY ATTORNEYS

ASSOCIATION SUPPORTS THIS

LEGISLATION; AND THIS BILL

CREATES A LOOK BACK PERIOD OF

120 DAYS FOR POSITION OF

AUTHORITY. A PERSON IN A

POSITION OF AUTHORITY OVER A

CHILD UNDER THE AGE OF 18 IS

SOMEONE WHO IS ACTING IN

THE PLACE OF A PARENT AND HAS A

DUTY TO PROTECT THE WELFARE THE

CHILD. SO; HERE TO DISCUSS THE

BILL FURTHER IS; CARE LINE

PALMER WITH MIN COSA AND

SHE CAN ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS.

TURNING IT OVER TO MY

TESTIFIER.

>> CHAIR: MRS.

PALMER INTRODUCE YOURSELF AND

PROCEED. >> THANK YOU MR. CHAIR

AND MEMBERS AND THANK YOU

REPRESENTATIVE LOHMER FOR

CARRYING THE BILL; WE

APPRECIATE IT. I WANT TO THANK

THE COMMITTEE HEARING SO MANY

SEXUAL ASULT BILLS AND

INDULGEING ME COMING UP TO THE

TABLE TIME AFTER TIME

THIS SESSION; WE APPRECIATE YOUR SUPPORT AND EFFORTS. AS

REPRESENTATIVE LOHMER SAID

ESSENTIALLY WHAT THIS BILL DOES

IS CREATE A 120 DAY LOOK BACK

PERIOD AND THE WAY THIS WOULD

WORK IS CURRENTLY UNDER THE LAW

WE HAVE THERE POSITION OF

AUTHORITY WITHIN OUR CRIMINAL

SEXUAL CONDUCT STATUTE PER

TAINING TEACHERS

COACHES; ANYONE CHARGED WITH THE CARE

TAKING OF A CHILD. WHEN YOU

SEND YOUR CHILD TO SCHOOL; WHEN

YOU SEND TO SPORTS THINGS

LIKE THAT THEY ARE UNDER A

POSITION OF AUTHORITY AND THIS

PARTICULAR PART THE STATUTE

APPLIES TO YOUTH 16 AND 17

YEARS OLD. THE WAY THE

STATUTE IS WRITTEN NOW IS IT SAYS A

APPARENT CHARGES SOMEBODY

ELSE WITH A POSITION OF AUTHORITY SO

WHEN YOU SEND YOUR STUDENT TO

SCHOOL YOU ARE GIVING THE

SCHOOL THAT AUTHORITY. WE ARE

DOING A COUPLE OFTHIS IN

THIS BILL. FIRST OF ALL; WE ARE

ALSO RECOGNIZING SITUATIONS

IN WHICH SOMEBODY MIGHT BE

ASSUMING A POSITION OF

AUTHORITY; SO IT COULD BE

SOMEBODY WHO SAY STOOZ THE

CHILD I'M YOUR TUTOR OR MENTOR

BUT THEY HAVEN'T

RECEIVED THAT EXPRESSED CONTRACT WITH THE

PARENTS TO DO SO. THAT

HAPPENS SOME CASES SO WE ARE ADDING THE

LANGUAGE INTO THE STATUTE. AND

IN REGARD WITH THE LOOK BACK

PERIOD; IF FOR XHMP A TEEPER;

COACH; SOMEBODY IS GROOMING THE

STUDENT OVER THE COURSE OF

THE SCHOOL YEAR WITH THE

ANTICIPATION THE SUMMER HOLIDAY

IS COMING AND ACT UPON

THOSE INTENTION THIS HAS THE

BOOK BACK PERIOD THAT SAYS YOU HAVE

BEEN IN THE ROLE IN THE PAST

120 DAY AND CONSIDER YOU IN A

POSITION OF AUTHORITY AND

AGAIN; THESE SITUATIONS DO

HAPPEN. IT IS SPECIFIC BUT

HAPPY TO ANSWER QUESTIONS.

>>

REPRESENTATIVE CONSIDINE: COULD YOU GO MORE INTO THE 120

DAYS S IT JUST BASICALLY

SUMMER VACATION?

>> MRS. PALMER: YEAH; IT IS

REALLY

BASICALLY THE TIMEFRAME WE CAME TO AS AN

AGREEMENT-THE BILL HAS BEEN AROUND FOR A

FEW SESSION JZ SO IT THROUGH A

COUPLE COMMITTEES AND THIS IS

THE TIMEFRAME WE FOUND

EVERYBODY CAN AGREE UPON AND IT

IS A PRETTY GOOD AMOUNT OF

TIME.

>>

REPRESENTATIVE CONSIDINE: THANK YOU; MR. CHAIR.

>> CHAIR: ANY OTHER QUESTIONS

FROM MEMBERS? ANYBODY FROM THE

PUBLIC WISH TO TESTIFY ON

THIS BILL? WITH THAT; I WILL LAY

THE BILL OVER FOR POSSIBLE

INCLUSION. THANK YOU.

>> THANK YOU MR. CHAIR AND

MEMBERS. .

>> CHAIR:

REPRESENTATIVE HILSTROM. YOU WISH TO MOVE

YOUR BILL FOR POSSIBLE

INCLUSION? >> REPRESENTATIVE HILSTROM: I

DO; MR. CHAIR.

>> CHAIR: PLEASE PROCEED.

>>

REPRESENTATIVE HILSTROM: THIS IS THE ADMINISTRATION BILL

AND SO WITH ME IS THE

DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC SAFETY.

IT REALLY HAS SOME

TECHNICAL CHANGEATIZE IS MAKING TO THE

PREDATORY REGISTRATION AND ADDITIONAL INFORMATION THEY ARE

GOING TO GET ACCESS TO SO I

WILL ASK THEM TO BRIEFLY GO

THROUGH THE ADDITIONAL PIECES THAT THEY WOULD LIKE THIS

COMMITTEE [INAUDIBLE COMMENTS] MADE THROUGH CIVIL LAWS

ALREADY; WE TALKED ABOUT THE

DATA ACCESS. THERE WAS NO

AUDIBLE DESCENT AND SO WITH

THAT I WOULD LIKE TO TURN IT

OVER TO MY TESTIFIER; MR.

CHAIR.

>> CHAIR: PLEASE INTRODUCE

YOURSELF AND PROCEED.

>> MR. CHAIR; MEMBERS; MY NAME

IS KATIE ENGLANDER WITH THE

BUREAU CRIMINAL

APPREHENSION. I WILL WALK THROUGH HOUSE FILE

3578. SECTION 1 AUTHORIZES THE

USE OF THE DRIVERS LICENSE

PHOTOGRAPH TO LOCATE A

INDIVIDUAL REQUIRED TO REGISTER

AS A PREDATORY OFFENDER.

SECTION 2 ADDS A COUPLE

DEFINITIONS USED LATER IN THE

BILL. SECTION 3 REFORM ATS THE

LIST OF OFFENSES THERE AND

ADDS OFFENSES THAT IS THE BASIS FOR

REGISTRATION. SECTION 4;

MODIFYS THE NAME OF A FORM THAT

IS REFERENCED IN STATUTE AND

DIRECTS THAT WHEN A

INDIVIDUAL DOES NOT HAVE A

CORRECTIONS AGENT THEY ARE TO WORK WITH

LOCAL

LAW ENFORCEMENT AGENCY IN ORDER TO MEET THE REGISTRATION

REQUIREMENTS. SECTION 5; IS

ABOUT-HAS

SEVERAL PROVISIONS; THE FIRST IS REQUIRE COLLECTION

OF DNA SAMPLE AS PART

OF REGISTRATION. THERE IS

A TECHNICAL FIX TO ALLOW THE

BCA TO NOTIFY LAW ENFORCEMENT OF A

INDIVIDUAL'S NEED TO REGISTER

RATHER THAN PROVIDE WITH A

COPY. THERE ARE SEVERAL

CHANGES ABOUT HOW WE CALCULATE

THE AMOUNT OF TIME THAT A

INDIVIDUAL HAS TO RETURN THE

ANNUAL

VERIFICATION FORM. COUNTY NOW IS DONE FROM THE

DATE OF RECEIPT. IT IS

IMPOSSIBLE FOR THE BUREAU TO

KNOW WHEN A INDIVIDUAL RECEIVES

THEIR REGISTRATION

OR VERIFICATION FORM; SO

THE CHANGES ARE TO ACCOUNT FROM THE

TIME ON THE

VERIFICATION FORM ITSELF WHICH IS THE DATE OF

MAILING. THERE IS NEW

AUTHORITY BEGINNING ON LINE

8.6; THAT AUTHORIZES EITHER

CORRECTIONS AGENT OR LAW

ENFORCEMENT AUTHORITY TO

DETERMINE A INDIVIDUALS INCOME

COMPLIANCE WITH THE

REGISTRATION AT ANY TIME AND AT

ANY FREQUENCY. IT ALLOWS LOCAL

LAW ENFORCEMENT TO

DETERMINE COMPLIANCE EVEN

IF THE INDIVIDUAL HAS A

CORRECTION AGENT ASSIGNED. THE LAST PART

OF SECTION 5 TALKS ABOUT

HAVING A YEAR FOR US TO COLLECT THE

DNA SAMPLE FOR THOSE WHO HAVE

NOT PREVIOUSLY PROVIDED ONE.

SECTION 6; IS WHERE WE TALK

ABOUT THE ADDITIONAL ITEMS OF

DATA THAT WE WOULD LIKE TO

COLLECT ON INDIVIDUALS.

THERE IS ONE CHANGE TO EXISTING LAW;

WHICH IS RIGHT NOW A 2NDARY

ADDRESS FOR EXAMPLE; A CABIN;

IT IS LIMITED TO THOSE LOCATED

WITHIN MINNESOTA; THE CHANGE

EXPANDS TO INCLUDE THE SAECDARY

ADDRESS NO MATTER WHERE IT IS

LOCATED; SO WISCONSIN;

DAKOTA; IOWA; WOULD COUNT AS WELL.

SECTION 7; GIVES AUTHORITY TO

USE ALTERNATIVES TO SOMEONE

SIGNING A DOCUMENT INCLUDING A

ELECTRONIC FORMAT. SECTION 8

IS ABOUT SOMETHING CALLED;

INTERNATIONAL MEGAN'S LAW WHICH

IS FEDERAL REQUIREMENT FOR

INDIVIDUALS REQUIRED TO

REGISTER TO HAVE NOTIFY THE

FEDERAL GOVERNMENT OF THEIR

TRAVEL PLANS OUTSIDE OF THE

COUNTRY IN A CERTAIN AMOUNT OF

TIME. THIS

INFORMATION IS FORWARDED TO THE FEDERAL

GOVERNMENT WHO GIVES THE

DESTINATION COUNTRY THE

OPPORTUNITY TO DETERMINE WHETHER OR NOT THEY ARE GOING

TO ALLOW THAT INDIVIDUAL TO

ENTER ON ARRIVAL. SECTION 9;

MODIFYS PENALTY LANGUAGE BASED ON A ROONT MINNESOTA SUPREME

COURT DECISION. SECTION 10;

TALKS ABOUT THE FACT THAT

FAILURE TO REGISTER WILL NOW

INCLUDE NOT COMPLY WG THE NEW

INTERNATIONAL TRAVEL REQUIREMENTS; IT ALSO ADDS

LANGUAGE THAT SAYS IF A

INDIVIDUAL IS NOT IN

COMPLIANCE AT THE END OF THE

REGISTRATION PERIOD THEIR PERIOD OF TIME

THEY ARE REQUIRE TODAY REGISTER

WILL BE EXTENDED FOR TWO

YEARS TO GIVE US THE OPPORTUNITY TO

UMXH INTO COMPLIANCE. SECTIONS

11 AND 13; ARE DAT A SHARING

PROVISIONS TO MATCH LANGUAGE

PASSED SEVERAL YEARS AGO

AUTHORIZING PROBATION AGENTS TO

SHARE INFORMATION WITH CHILD

PROTECTION. THIS

JUST CLEANS THINGS UP TO MAKE SURE THE

SHARING IS ACTUALLY

AUTHORIZED. SECTION 12; CLARIFIES THAT

WHEN A PERSON DOES NOT RETURN A

VERIFICATION FORM OR

HAS [INAUDIBLE COMMENTS] THAT THE

BUREAU MAY MAKE INFORMATION

ABOUT THE INDIVIDUAL AVAILABLE

TO THE PUBLIC BECAUSE THEY ARE

OUT OF COMPLIANCE. WITH THAT;

I'M HAPPY TO ANSWER QUESTIONS.

>> CHAIR: ANY QUESTIONS FROM

THE MEMBERS?

>>

REPRESENTATIVE [INAUDIBLE COMMENTS] NOT A

QUESTION; BUT RATHER THANK YOU. I DID

PREDITARY OFFEND

TRACKING AND THERE ARE A LOT OF TIMES

YOU ARE LOOKING AT IT AND GOING IF

THIS IS ALL WE ARE TRACKING

WITH; THINGS NEED TO BE

TIGHTENED UP SO I APPRECIATE

WHAT REPRESENTATIVE HILSTROM IS

PUTTING FORWARD HERE.

>> CHAIR: ANY OTHER QUESTION

FROM THE MEMBERS?

>> REPRESENTATIVE

BECKER FINN: THANK YOU; MR. CHAIR AND I

ALSO WANTED TO THANK YOU FOR

BRINGING THIS FORWARD. I KNOW

IN RECENTLY IN MINNESOTA THERE

ARE A COUPLE CASES WHERE WE

HAD-I DON'T KNOW IF THEY WERE

PREVIOUSLY OFFENDERS BUT HAD

CASES WHERE PEOPLE KIDNAP

CHILDREN AND TAKE THEM TO

CABINS AND SECOND HOMES

AND THINK THAT WILL BE REALLY

HELPFUL IN KEEPING TRACK OF

WHERE FOLKS ARE AND WHEN WE DO

HAVE INCIDENTS TRYING TO FIGURE

OUT IF THERE IS A REOFFENSE WE

HAVE

THAT INFORMATION READILY AVAILABLE SO THANK YOU.

>>

REPRESENTATIVE HILSTROM: THERE IS A A1 AMENDMENT AND

THIS IS AT THE REQUEST OF

DEPARTMENT OF CORRECTION JZ

THEY ARE HERE TO

SPEAK TO THAT IF YOU WOULD LIKE THEM TO SPEAK

TO THE A1 AMENDMENT.

>> CHAIR: IF THEY ARE

WILLING-I SEE COMMISSIONER

ROY HERE. GOOD MORNING. PLEASE

INTRODUCE YOURSELF AND

BEGIN. >> TOM ROY: COMMISSIONER OF

CORRECTIONS. REFERENCES PAGE

11 AFTER LINE 5 WE HAVE SOME

CONCERNS ABOUT

THE TRAVEL LANGUAGE AND SOME OF OUR FOLKS

VOICED A CONCERN THAT THIS

MIGHT LEAD THOSE FOLKS WHO ARE

ON SUPERVISION TO BELIEVE THAT

THEY CAN TRAVEL AND WE WOULD

OFFER LANGUAGE THAT WOULD

SPEAK TO THAT; BECAUSE WE FEEL THAT

EXPECTATION IS NOT REASONABLE.

THERE ARE PEOPLE UNDER

SUPERVISION WHO SHOULD NOT

TRAVEL; AND I CAN THINK OF A

CASE I HAD AS PROHIBITION

OFFICER A GENTLEMEN WANTED TO

RESPOND A WEEK IN THE BAHAMAS

AND HAD A NO DRINK CLAUSE AND

ALSO OWED

RESTITUTION AND MY COMMENT TO HIM WAS IT WOULD BE

DIFFICULT TO MONITOR THE

DRINKING AND BEFORE YOU SPEND

MONEY ON A BAHAMAS TRIP YOU

SHOULD PAY YOUR RESTITUTION.

WE ALSO LOSE JURISDICTION WHEN

THEY

TRAVEL INTERNATIONALLY. WE DON'T HAVE TREATEES WITH A

NUMBER OF COUNTRIES SO THINK IT

WOULD BE INCUMBENT TO HAVE THE

LANGUAGE THAT I CAN NOW READ

INSERTED AFTER LINE 5; PAGE 11;

1.3; A PERSON REQUIRED TO

REGISTER UNDER THIS SECTION WHO

IS ASSIGNED A CORRECTION AGENTS

MUST RECEIVE THE

CORRECTIONS AGENTS APPROVAL FOR ALL TRAVEL;

NOTHING IN THE SUBDIVISION

REQUIRES A CORRECTIONS AGENT TO

APPROVE OF TRAVEL THAT IS

INCONSISTENT WITH THE TERMS OF

THE OFFENDERS SUPERVISION. I

THINK IT JUST MAKES SENSE.

>> REPRESENTATIVE HILSTROM: THANK YOU; MR. CHAIR. THIS WAS

A DEPARTMENT BILL AND

DIFFERENT DEPARTMENT AMENDMENT AND I HAVE

NO ISSUE ADDING THAT.

>> CHAIR: ANY QUESTIONS ON THE

AMENDMENT? ALL THOSE IN

FAVOR- >>

REPRESENTATIVE [INAUDIBLE COMMENTS] I HAD THOSE

CONVERSATIONS AS WELL AS A

DEPUTY WHEN THEY START TALK BTH

TRAVEL AND TELL THEM NO; YOU

TALK TO YOUR AGENT FIRST

OTHERWISE WE WILL BE

TRACKING YOU DOWN AND YOU WILL BE IN

VIOLATION. I SUPPORT IT AS

WELL.

>> CHAIR: ALL IN FAVOR OF THE

A1; AYE. OPPOSED? THANK

YOU. MOTION IS-THE AMENDMENT IS

APPROVED. >>

REPRESENTATIVE HILSTROM: NOTHING ELSE.

>> CHAIR: NO OTHER

TESTIFIERS? ANY OTHER QUESTIONS FROM THE

COMMITTEE? ANY TESTIFIERS FROM

THE PUBLIC THAT WISH

TO TESTIFY? THE BILL WILL BE

LAID OVER FOR POSSIBLE INCLUSION.

>> REPRESENTATIVE

HILSTROM: THANK YOU; MEMBERS.

>> CHAIR:

REPRESENTATIVE CHRISTENSEN; WELCOME

TO COMMITTEE. THE CHAIR WILL MOVE

HOUSE FILE 3885 FOR

POSSIBLE INCLUSION. REPRESENTATIVE

CHRISTENSEN; PLEASE PROCEED.

>>

REPRESENTATIVE CHRISTENSEN: HOUSE FILE 3885 IS I THINK A

GOOD STEP IN SOMETHING WE CAN

DO RIGHT NOW TO MAKE SURE OUR

SCHOOLS ARE SAFE. IT PROVIDES

FOR GRANTS FOR SCHOOLS TO DO

SECURITY AUDITS ON THEIR SCHOOL

TOOZ FIGURE OUT WHAT ARE SOME

STEPS THEY CAN TAKE RIGHT NOW

TO IMPROVE THE

SCHOOL SECURITY; SOME OF THE STEPS COULD BE

UPGRADES AND SOME STEPS ARE

PROCEDURAL THINGS THAT

DONT COST MONEY. I THINK THIS IS A

GOOD BILL AND HAPPY TO DISCUSS

WITH MEMBERS.

>> CHAIR. : THANK YOU; DO WE

HAVE QUESTIONS FROM MEMBERS?

>> REPRESENTATIVE CONSIDINE: THANK YOU; MR. CHAIR. WHY DO

WE HAVE TWO BILLS THAT SEEM TO

DO THE EXACT SAME THING?

>>

REPRESENTATIVE CHRISTENSEN: MR. CHAIR; I THINK GREAT MINDS

THINK ALIKE. THE BILLS ARE

SIMILAR; THEY ARE

DAFTED DIFFERENTLY; BUT I THINK THEY

ARE BOTH GET AT THE SAME ISSUE

AND ARE GOOD IDEAS.

>>

REPRESENTATIVE CONSIDINE: CAN WE NOT GET TOGETHER AND

JUST MAKE ONE BILL INSTEAD OF

DOING THIS TOGETHER?

>> CHAIR: TO THE

TESTIFIERS. >> REPRESENTATIVE CHRISTENSEN:

I THINK THAT WILL BE THE

END RESULT AND WHY WE ARE KIND OF

HEARING THE BILLS

TOGETHER HERE.

>> CHAIR: ANYTHING ELSE

REPRESENTATIVE CONSIDINE?

>> REPRESENTATIVE CONSIDINE: YOU DO KNOW YOU ARE ON

THE SAME PARTY; RIGHT?

>> REPRESENTATIVE CHRISTENSEN:

YES.

>>

REPRESENTATIVE LUCERO: THANK YOU; MR. CHAIR AND THANK

YOU TO BOTH BILL AUTHORS

OF YOUR TWO BILLS. I KNOW THAT AS

INDEPENDENTLY EFFECTED OFFICIALS WE HAVE OUR OWN IDEAS

WHEN TWEE DRAW BILLS AND MAY

NOT KNOW WHAT OTHERS ARE

WORKING ON SO APPRECIATE YOUR

EFFORTS BOTH OF THE BILLS ARE

COMING BEFORE THE

COMMITTEE TODAY. THE QUESTION I HAVE FOR

REPRESENTATIVE CHRISTENSEN IS;

I'M NOT FAMILIAR WITH THE

AMERICAN SOCIETY FOR

INDUSTRIAL SECURITY AND THAT IS THE

ORGANIZATION THAT IS REFERENCED

IN TERMS OF HAVING TO HAVE A

CERTIFIED

PROTECTION PROFESSIONAL CERTIFICATION IN ORDER TO QUALIFY FOOTOO

PERFORM SO WONDER IF YOU CAN ELABORATE

ON WHAT THAT ORGANIZATION IS

AND THEIR INVOLVEMENT IN THIS

PROCESS. THANK YOU.

>>

REPRESENTATIVE CHRISTENSEN: MR. CHAIR AND REPRESENTATIVE

JESSUP COULD MAYBE ADD MORE TO

THAT BUT BASICALLY THEY ARE THE

STANDARDS ORGANIZATION THAT

PROVIDE ACCREDITATION IN THIS

FIELD. THE RESULTS THAT WE

WILL BE LOOKING FOR AND ATYPE

OF ANALYSIS THAT WOULD BE DONE

IS VERY SIMILAR TO WHAT WAS

ROONTLY DONE BEFORE THE CAPITAL

RESTORATION ANALYZING THE SECURITY OF THE CAPITAL AND

STATE GOVERNMENT COMPLEX HERE.

>> REPRESENTATIVE LUCERO: NO

FOLLOW UP;

JUST WANTED OKNOW MORE ABOUT THE

ORGANIZATION. >> REPRESENTATIVE JESSUP:

THANK YOU. THANK YOU CHAIR;

THANK YOU MEMBERS FOR

COMMITTEE; MY APOLOGY FOR BEING

LATE. THANK YOU REPRESENTATIVE

CHRISTENSEN FOR BEING HERE ON

TIME AND I WILL JUST

SAY REPRESENTATIVE CONSIDINE; THIS

IS A UNIQUE EXPERIENCE. IT IS

QUITE A

PLESERABLE EXPERIENCE I WILL HAVE TO SAY; TAG TEAM WITH

A FELLOW REPRESENTATIVE; I GOT

TO SAY; THAT'S NOT A

BAD-THAT MAY NOT BE ABAG BAD GIG TO

CONSIDER FOR THE FUTURE BUT IT

ISCOURAGE NCOURAGING WE BOTH CAME UP WITH SIMILAR IDEAS AND

THINK THAT JUST

EMPHASIZES REALLY THE I THINK FOR ALL OF

US THIS WHOLE ISSUE OF SCHOOL

SAFETY IS WEIGHING ON THE MINDS

NOT ONLY OF MY

REPUBLICAN COLLEAGUE JZ THE

DEMOCRAT SIDE AS WELL; ALL OF US SO THIS IS A

INITIATIVE AND OPPORTUNITY TO

PUSH FORWARD.

REPRESENTATIVE CHRISTENSEN MENTIONED WE HAD GONE THROUGH BEFORE I HAD COME

REALLY SOME

CAPITAL SECURITY ASSESSMENT FOR THIS BUILDING

AND ALL THAT REPRESENT US

AS WELL AS WORK IN THIS

PARTICULAR CAPITAL AND THAT WAS WHY THE

ENTRANCE IN FRONT OF THE

CAPITAL WAS REMOVED. NOW IT IS

WALKING PATHS OUT THERE AND

THAT WAS PART OF THE SECURITY

EFFORT. AS WE

THINK THROUGH THAT; IF WE CAN DO THAT

FOR THE CAPITAL DURING THE

INVESTMENT WE MADE FOR THE

CAPITAL; WE NEED DO WHAT IS

SIMILAR FOR OUR SCHOOL AND

SCHOOL SYSTEMS ACROSS THE

STATE. I DON'T THINK

ANYONE HERE WOULD SAY THE LIVES OF THE

CHAIR FAIR MORE VALUABLE THE

LIVE FRZ ALL OF US SO THAT IS

WHY WE ARE HERE TOORB

TOGETHER. >> >> REPRESENTATIVE PINTO: THANK

YOU; MR. CHAIR AND THANK YOU TO

THE AUTHORS FOR BRINGING

THIS FORWARD. I FIND IT STRIKING WE

HAVE DOUBLED THE NUMBER OF

BILLS AS USUAL E; WE HAVE NOT A

SINGLE TESTIFY ON BEHALF OF

EITHER BILL. DO YOU HAVE

EXPERTS IN SCHOOL SAFETY;

THE YOUTH WHO WILL BE PROTECTED; I

FIND IT STRIKING THAT YOU JUST

HAVE THE TWO OF YOU AND DOUBLE

THE NUMBER BUT NOT SINGLE

PERSON TESTIFYING SAYING THIS IS THE RIGHT

STEP. I NOTICE THERE IS A APPROPRIATION THAT

IS 2 MILLION;

2 MILLION BUCKS THAT THAT IS THE RIGHT STEP TO

BE KEEPING STUDENTS SAFE. ANY

COMMENTS ON THAT I OFFER THAT

TUPE THE TWO TESTIFIERS.

>> CHAIR: TO THE TESTIFIERS.

>> MR.

CHAIR; REPRESENTATIVE PINTO; I THINK WE HAD A LOT OF

CONVERSATION WITH SCHOOL

OFFICIALS AND SCHOOL

DISTRICTS FOLKS AND THINK WE HEARD FROM

THEM PREVIOUSLY AND EDUCATION

COMMITTEE WHERE THOSE

STAKEHOLDERS FREQUENT; BUT I

THINK THIS IS A THOUGHT OUT

PROPOSAL THAT IS TALKED ABOUT

WITH SCHOOL DISTRICTS. THIS I

THINK IS SOMETHING WHERE WE GET

A LOT OF BANG FOR OUR BUCK FOR

A REASONABLY MODEST INVESTMENT

OF $2 MILLION; ANYWHERE FROM A

HUNDRED TO 400 SCHOOLS COULD

UTILIZE THIS GRANT PROCESS AND

DO AND KNOW HOW BEST TO INVEST

THEIR MONEY AS WELL AS

DO THINGS THAT COST LITTLE TO NO

MONEY THAT ARE JUST PROCEDURAL

CHANGES. >> REPRESENTATIVE PINTO: YES;

MR. CHAIR. SO IN THE

PUBLIC SAFETY COMMITTEE WE DO HAVE

FOLKS WHO HAVE THEMSELVES

EXPERIENCED IN PUBLIC SAFETY

AND I'M PROSECUTOR AND SPEAK

FROM THAT PERSPECTIVE; YOU

HEARD FROM

REPRESENTATIVE GAROFALO AND DON'T KNOW THE

BACKGROUND OF THE BILL

AUTHORS BUT I UNDERSTAND THE THOUGHT

THERE WILL BE A LOT OF-THIS

WILL BE A USEFUL THING; BUT IF

YOU HAVE BEEN TALKING TO

SCHOOLS AND EXPERTS IN SCHOOL

SAFETY MY THOUGHT IS I

WOULD FIND IT MORE CREDIBLE WITH

REEXPECT TO HEAR

FROM THEM SAYING THIS IS WHAT WE NEED

THEN TO BE HEARING FROM THE

AUTHORS. WE NEED TO HEAR FROM

YOU; BUT IF THIS TRUEY IS

SOMETHING DESIRED I EXPECT WE

WOULD HEAR THAT FROM FOLKS AND

THE OTHER QUESTION IS; DO YOU

HAVE SIMILAR BILLS TO ADDRESS

AUDITS AND SAFETY IN THE OTHER

LOCATION WHERE MASS SHOOTINGS

OCCURRED SO THINKING IS THERE A

BILL REGARDING CONCERT HALLS;

NIGHT CLUBS; CHUNCHS; THE

PRAYER CIRCLES THAT OCCURRED

THERE; PARKS AND HIGHER ED

AREAS; SO I APPRECIATE THE

SELECTION OF THIS

PARTICULAR AREA. THE YOUTH ARE BEING

PROTECTED HERE I

HEAR THEM ASKING FOR A LOT OF

OTHER THINGS AND I WANT TO MAKE

SURE OF COURSE WE ARE PROVIDING THAT

SAFETY AND OTHER LOCATIONS AS

WELL SO WONDER WHEN THOSE BILLS

WILL BE COMING OUT.

>>

CHAIR: REPRESENTATIVE JESSUP ARE YOU TAKING THAT

ONE?

>>

REPRESENTATIVE JESSUP: I THINK WE ARE ON A PROGRESSION

HERE REPRESENTATIVE PINTO. WE

HAVE SEEN EVERY SINCE 911; 2001

WE FOCUSED UPON AIRPORT

SECURITY AND MAKING SURE WE

WILL NEVER HAVE ANOTHER 911

AGAIN. THAT WAS PROBABLY STEP

ONE. SINCE THEN WE AS A

SOCIETY EVOLVED. THINK OF THE

STADIUMS AND CHECKS WE GO

THROUGH WHEN WE GO INTO A

STADIUM EITHER FOR A SPORTS

EFFORT OR ENTERTAINMENT. I

LOOK AT-I LIKE

YOUR QUESTION AND LOOK AT AND SAY THIS IS A

EVOLVING PROCESS FOR US ALL AND

I WOULD HAVE TO SAY QUITE

HONESTLY I THINK

SCHOOLS ARE THE NEXT ON THE

PRIORITY LIST. PERHAPS THEY SHOULD HAVE BEEN

EARLIER BUT THEY NEED TO BE UP

NOW AND WE NEED A

BASELINE; HOW SAFE ARE THE SCHOOLS? ALL OF

US ESPECIALLY THOSE THAT HAVE

CHILDREN OR HAD CHILDREN GO

THROUGH THE SCHOOLS WE ALL

SAY; OUR SCHOOLS ARE

REAL SAFE; WELL; THAT IS BECAUSE WE ARE IN

A TRUSTING ENVIRONMENT. AT

LEAST IN MY KIDS ARE

GROWN NOW SO I GIVE THAT CONTEXT. YOU

MOST LIKELY HAVE CHILDREN IN

SCHOOL REPRESENTATIVE PINTO; SO

I HAVE TO BACK MY CONTEXT UP

SLIGHTLY; BUT I WILL SAY THAT

THERE IS OFTEN WE TALK ABOUT IN

COMMUNITIES WE REALLY WANT A

LEVEL OF TRUST BETWEEN

FAMILIES AND BETWEEN THE SCHOOLS FOR

WHICH THE CHILDREN ATTENDS AND

I FELT THAT BUT I LOOK NOW AT A

SCHOOL AND I DID AND

TURCHED BASE WITH

SUPERINTENT END AND LOOK AT THE SCHOOLS AND DON'T WANT TO LOOK AT IT FROM

THIS CONTEXT BUT IS THE SCHOOL

PENETRABLE FROM THE OUTSIDE TO

DO DAMAGE INSIDE AND THAT IS

NOT WHERE I WANT TO PUT MY

MIND BUT THINK WE ARE IN A POSITION

NOW IN SOCIETY WHERE WE NEED TO

DO THAT AND THE BILLS

THAT REPRESENTATIVE CHRISTENSEN AND

I HAVE BEFORE YOU IS REALLY IF

WE CAN DO AUDITS ON SCHOOLS AND

AGAIN; SOME SCHOOLS HAVE

ALREADY GONE THERE AND

FOCUSED UPON SCHOOL SAFETY BUT THERE

ARE OTHER SCHOOLS IN THE STATE

OF MINNESOTA THAT HAVEN'T HAD

THE OPPORTUNITY OR FUNDING. WE

NEED TO ESTABLISH

A BASELINE AND WHERE WE ARE AT TODAY

WITH THE SAFETY IN THE SCHOOLS AND

IT ISN'T JUST THE

BUILDINGS. IT IS ALSO THE CRISIS

MANAGEMENT PLANS IN PLACE.

WHAT ARE THE

PROCEDURES THAT OCCUR FOR A SCHOOL IF THEY

ENCOUNTERED A DISRUPTION AND THAT COULD BE A TORNADO AS WELL

AS SOMEONE COMING TO THE SCHOOL

THAT SHOULDN'T BE

THERE; BUT I THINK WE NEED TO ESTABLISH A

BASELINE FOR THE SCHOOLS AND

THIS IS A FIRST STEP TO GET

AFTER THAT AND TO

YOUR POINT; PERHAPS WE NEED TO DO SIMILAR

ONCE WE REALLY TACKLE THE

SUBJECT AT SCHOOLS AND LOOK

ELSEWHERE FOR OTHER VENUES THAT

ARE PUBLIC VENUES.

>> REPRESENTATIVE PINTO: ARE

THESE BILLS BEING LAID OVER FOR

POSSIBLE INCLUSION OR REMIND ME

OF THE PATH?

>> CHAIR: THEY ARE BOTH

GOING TO BE LAID OVER.

>> REPRESENTATIVE PINTO: THANK

YOU MR. CHAIR. THANK YOU FOR

THE TESTIFIERS. I THINK

I'M DONE. THANK YOU MR. CHAIR.

>> CHAIR: NEXT ON THE LIST; WE

HAVE REPRESENTATIVE O'NEILL.

>>

REPRESENTATIVE O'NEILL: THANK YOU MR. CHAIR. I WAS

GOING TO ADDRESS SOMETHING

REPRESENTATIVE PINTO

INQUIRED ABOUT HAVING TWO BILLS AT THE

SAME TIME AND THIS IS BEFORE

YOU WERE ELECTED BUT I WAS A

FRESHMAN AND THERE WERE 5 OF US

THAT HAD DIFFERENT

VARIATIONS OF REPEALING THE BUSINESS TO

BUSINESS TAXES THAT HAD BEEN

ENACTED THE YEAR BEFORE AND

FOUND THAT WAS A REALLY BAD

IDEA; THERE WERE 5 OF US THAT

CAME BEFORE THE TAX COMMITTEE

WITH ALL DIFFERENT VARIATIONS

OF IT SO THAT WE CAN ALL BE

HEARD; SOME HAD THE SAME

THING AND THE CHAIR WAS GRACES ENOUGH

TO HEAR ALL OF US. I REMEMBER

SITTING SIDE BY SIDE WITH NOW

SENATOR ISAACSON;

THEN REPATIVE ISAACSON SO IT IS DONE AND IT

ISN'T DONE MAYBE AS OFTEN; BUT

WHEN IT IS REALLY

REALLY IMPORTANT ISSUE LIKE THIS T IS

DONE; SO JUST SO YOU KNOW WHEN

I WAS A FRESHMAN 5 YEARS AGO

NOW THAT DID TAKE PLACE ALSO I

WANT TO REMIND TOO WE HAD A

PRESENTATION; THOROUGH AND

IN-DEPTH PRESENTATION FROM

HOME LAND SECURITY DOING THE

AUDITS SO SINCE YOU ARE NOT MEMBERS OF

THE COMMITTEE; I WANTED YOU TO

HEAR THAT HOME LAND SECURITY

DOES A GREAT JOB DOING THE

AUDITS AND HAD BEEN DOING

AUDITS; THEY HAD DONE I

THINK OVER 100 ODD TDS OF SCHOOLS AND

ASSISTING THEM AND TRYING TO

HARDIN THE SCHOOLS AND

PROVIDE PROTECTION; SO THIS IS

SOMETHING WE TALKED ABOUT EARLY

ON AND I AM GLAD WE ARE

FINISHING UP THE SECOND

DEADLINE WEEK WITH THIS BECAUSE

IT HAS COME FULL CIRCJL GOOD

TO SEE MONEY PUT TO THAT SO THE

SCHOOLS CAN ACTUALLY CHOIR WHETHER IT IS HOME LAND SECURE

OR SOMEBODY ELSE TO COME IN AND

DO A AUDIT. I WAS IN THE MAPLE

LAKES SCHOOL ABOUT THREE WEEKS

AGO WITH A SUPERINTENEDANT

AND HE WANTED TO

TALK ABOUT SCHOOL SAFETY AS A COUPLE OTHER OF MY

PRINCIPLES AND

SUPERINTENDENTS DID AND THEY HAD HAD A CURSORY

AUDIT SO THEY HAD LOCAL LAW

ENFORCEMENT COME IN AND THE

SHERIFF DEPARTMENT COME IN AND

MAKE SUGGESTIONS AND SAID; YOU

KNOW WHAT; THIS DOOR COULD BE

PROPPEDOPEGEN SOMETIME THAIZ

ARE SO IF YOU HAVE A BAD ACTOR

THE BAD ACTOR CAN OPEN UP THE

DOOR AND LET SOMEBODY IN SO YOU

SHOULD THINK ABOUT THAT. YOU

HAVE THE THREE PANELS OF GLASS

DOORS THAT

ARE WHERE PEOPLE COME IN AND THEY CAN EASILY BE

TAKEN OUT AND JUST WALK IN

THERE. HE HAD VERY CONCRETE

THINGS THEY WERE

CONSIDERED TO HARDIN THE SCHOOL AND PROTECT

THE

STUDENTS. THESE ARE-THIS IS THE TIME WE LIVE IN AND I

APPRECIATE YOU BRINGING THIS PR

FRWARD AND I HAVE SEEN

IN MY DISTRICT IN THE LAST MONTH THE

RAISED LEVEL OF CONCERN AND

THEIR ACTION AND RESPONSE TO IT

SO I APPRECIATE YOU GIB THG

SCHOOLS THE TOOL THEY NEED TO

FURTHER HARDIN THE SCHOOLS AND PROTECT THE CHILDREN. THANK

YOU. >> CHAIR: THANK YOU. I MIGHT

ADD ANOKA HENNEPIN HAS BEEN

DOING THIS THE PAST YEAR. WE

PASSED A BOND ISSUE. ALL THE

ISSUEERIZE BEING ADDRESSED AND THIS WILL BE HELPFUL FOR OTHER

SCHOOLS. REPRESENTATIVE

BECKER FINN. I BELIEVE YOU

HAD SOMETHING TO ADD.

>> REPRESENTATIVE BECKER

FIN: THANK YOU; MR.

CHAIR. REPRESENTATIVE JESSUP IS THE

OTHER SIDE OF MY DISTRICT SO WE

SHARE REPRESENTATION FOR PART

OF MOUNTAIN VIEW SCHOOLS AND I

AM A COAUTHOR ON

REPRESENTATIVE JESSUP'S BILL AND THE REASON IS

BECAUSE I THINK THIS IS

THE TIME WE NEED TO COMPREHENSIVELY

ADDRESS THE PROBLEM OF OUR

KIDS BEING SAFE WHILE THEY ARE AT

SCHOOL; AND I AM IN MY SON'S

ELEMENTARY SCHOOL LITERALLY

EVERY DAY WHEN DROP HIM

OFF AND I KNOW WE HAD BONDING

ISSUES ON THE BALLOT LAST YEAR

IN ALL THE SCHOOL DISTRICT JZ

PART OF THE ASK IS SO THEY

COULD DO WORK AROUND THAT. ONE

OF THE REASONS I SIGNED ON TO

YOUR BILL IS BECAUSE IT

INCLUDES THE

CRISIS MANAGEMENT POLICY SO JUST TO-IT IS BROADER

THAN JUST THE

PHYSICAL STRUCTURES; WE HAVE TO HAVE

GOOD POLICIES SO WE ARE

REACTING SAFELY FOR OUR KIDS;

AND I THINK IN ORDER TO DO

THAT; COMPREHENSIVELY WE ALSO

HAVE TO ADDRESS GUNS; NOBODY

SAID THE WORD GUN YET IN

THIS HEARING; BUT THAT IS

REALLY WHAT-WE TALK ABOUT IT

BEING PENETRABLE WE TALK ABOUT THE

FEAR WE HAVE AND THE DESIRE TO

PROTECT OUR KIDS; THAT IS PART

THE PUZZLE TOO; AND WE ARE

NOT GOING TO BE ABLE TO

FULLY PROTECT KIDS TO THE DEGREE THAT

WE WANT TO IF WE ARE NOT

COMPREHENSIVELY DOING THAT AND

REPRESENTATIVE JESSUP YOU

SPOKE TO FEELING SAFE IN

OUR SCHOOLS AND I THINK WE VERY CLEARLY

FROM THE THOUSANDS OF

YOUNG PEOPLE WHO CAME OUT JUST IN THE

LAST COUPLE WEEKS THAT KIDS

DON'T FEEL SAFE IN SCHOOL AND

WE HAVE OUR YOUNG PEOPLE

TELLING US THAT; SO I'M HAPPY

TO SUPPORT THIS BILL AND I

WOULD JUST ENCOURAGE MEMBERS

AND PARTICULARLY

REPRESENTATIVE JESSUP TO LOOK AT ALL ASPECTS

IN HOW WE PROTECT OUR KIDS IN

SCHOOL; BECAUSE WE

ABSOLUTELY DO NEED TO ADDRESS THIS; SO I

THANK YOU FOR BRINGING THIS

FORWARD AND HOPE THAT WE CAN

BROADEN THE SCOPE SO WE ARE

REALLY ADDRESSING THIS PROBLEM

IN A MEANINGFUL WAY AND THE WAY

OUR YOUNG PEOPLE ARE ASKING TO

BE PROTECTED. THANK YOU.

>> CHAIR: THANK YOU

REPRESENTATIVE. THE LAST PERSON WE HAVE ON THE LIST IS

REPRESENTATIVE [INAUDIBLE

COMMENTS] >> TO THE BILL AUTHOR YZ

HAVE A FEW THINGS I WANT TO TALK ABOUT

HERE AND I'M TRY ING TO

UNDERSTAND THE ORDERS. WHEN I

THINK ABOUT $2 MILLION JUST I

THINK IT WAS YESTERDAY IN

CAPITAL INVESTMENT WE HEARD

ABOUT A FUND GRANT PROGRAM

THAT WAS GOING TO SET UP SO THAT

SCHOOLS HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO

GET THE MONEY TO ACTUALLY

DO THIS SO THAT IS A GOOD WAY TO

START BUT THAT WAS ONLY $5

MILLION; AND I'M SITTING HERE

AND THINK IF WE DO $2 MILLION

FOR AUDITS; IT'S LIKELY GOING

TO SHOW A WHOLE LOT MORE THAN

$5 MILLION OF NEEDS THAT

WILL BE OUT IN THE SCHOOLS; SO I'M

NOT SURE WE ARE RIGHT ON

THINKING ABOUT THE MONEY AND

IMPLICATION OF HOW

WE WOULD FINANCE THESE TYPE OF PROJECTS;

BUT I ALSO HAVE CONCERN THAT

REPRESENTATIVE BECKER FINN BROUGHT UP AND THAT IS THAT YOU

KNOW; WE ARE LOOKING AT TRYING

TO MAKE OUR SCHOOLS SO

SECURE THAT OUR FEAR OF

ALLEVIATING THE POSSIBILITY OF A

MASS SHOOTER COMING IN AND KILLING

OUR KIDS IS SOMEHOW WE ARE

SATISFIED; AND I WILL USE

RHETORIC THAT DOESN'T COME FROM

ME; IT COMES FROM THE

OTHER SIDE IS BAD PEOPLE WILL ALWAYS

FIND A WAY; AND I THINK WE NEED

TO HAVE THAT AS PART OF OUR

DISCUSSION TO REALIZE WHAT WE

ARE DOING ISN'T

ASSUREING SAFETY AND SECURITY FOR OUR

KID; IT ISN'T INSURING SAFETY

OR SECURITY FOR ANYBODY IF WE

MOVE IT TO MOVIE THEATERS OR

EVENT CENTERS OR THINGS LIKE

THAT AND PART OF IT BECAUSE

GUNS ARE VERY PREVALENT IN OUR

SOCIETY AND AS LONG AS GUNS ARE

PREVALENT IN OUR SOCIETY WE

WILL ALWAYS HAVE INCIDENT LIKE

THIS. I APPRECIATE THAT THE

CHAIR WAS WILLING TO HEAR THIS

BILL AND HAVE THIS

CONVERSATION; BUT THE REASON WE

ARE DOING THIS BILL IS BECAUSE

OF MASS SHOOTINGS; BECAUSE OF

SOME STUDENTS AND AN ADULT

KILLED IN

PARKLAND FLORIDA AND IT WAS BECAUSE OF A GUN; A

SEMI-AUTOMATIC RIFLE BUT YET WE

CAN'T HAVE A HEARING ABOUT

THAT. I THINK THIS IS GREAT; I

THINK WE NEED TO DO THESE TYPE

OF THINGS; BUT ALSO THINK WE

NEED TO HAVE THAT BROADER

CONVERSATION AND UNTIL WE HAVE

THAT BROADER CONVERSATION I

THINK WE ARE JUST PUTTING FALSE

SECURITY WITH PEOPLE OUT THERE

AND WE ARE ABLE TO PAT

OURSELVES ON THE BACK AND SAID

WE DID SOMETHING 6789 WE ARE

REALLY NOT DOING ANYTHING. WE

ARE REALLY TRYING TO MAKE THE

SCHOOLS MORE SECURE BUT WE ALSO

KNOW IF THERE ARE BAD

PEOPLE THEY WILL FIND A WAY; AND IF

THAT'S BEING OUT SOMEWHERE

WHEN KIDS GET OUT OAF SCHOOL TO GET

ON THE BUS; THERE IS A

OPPORTUNITY. ARE WE BUILDING

TUNNELS THAT ARE SECURE FOR THE

KIDS TO LEAVE THE

SCHOOLS TO GET TO THE BUSES AND DO WE MAKE

THE BUSES

IMPENETRABLE? WHAT I'M TRYING TO SAY; IS

THIS A LITTLE PIECE OF A

MUCH LARGER THING AND HOPE WE CONTINUE TO

HAVE THE CONVERSATION ABOUT THE

LARGER THING THAT IS MAKING OUR

CHILDREN IN SCHOOLS VULNERABLE

AND MAKING THEM SCARED AND

PUTTING THEM IN

SITUATIONS WHERE THEY ARE STRESSED. WHEN

KIDS GO THROUGH TRAINING ABOUT

LOCK-DOWN AND

WHAT HAPPENS IF THE IS A SHOOTER IN THE SCHOOL;

I COULDINATE IMAGINE WHAT

THAT WOULD BE LIKE TO BE A KID THAT

IS 8; 9 OR 10

GOING THROUGH THAT AND THEN HAVING TO GO BACK

TO THE CLASSROOM AND LEARN.

SO; I APPRECIATE THESE

BILLS; I THINK THEY ARE A LITTLE BIT OF

A START; BUT THINK WE HAVE A

LONG WAY TO GO.

>> CHAIR: THANK YOU. WE HAVE

ADDED A FEW MORE TO THE LIST

HERE. >>

REPRESENTATIVE GROSSELL: THANK YOU; GENTLEMEN FOR

BRINGING THESE BILLS FORWARD; IT IS A START. IT IS A START.

LIKE EVERYBODY SAID THAT IS A

DROP IN THE BUCKET; ONLY THE

BEGINNING. TO SAY THAT THE END

ALL BE ALL IS TO DO ANYTHING

WITH GUNS; THAT'S JUST ONE

LITTLE PIECE THAT IF YOU DID

ANYTHING WITH THAT LIKE YOU

SAID IT WOULDN'T MAKE A LOT OF

DIFFERENCE; SO WITH THAT

BEING SAID; THERE IS BIGGER

ISSUES THAT WE NEED TO DEAL WITH.

MAKING SCHOOLS SAFE; THAT'S A

PRIORITY. I HAVE BEEN IN LAW

ENFORCEMENT AND PUBLIC SAFETY

FOR MANY YEARS TO TRY TO MAKE

THINGS; PEOPLE SAFE. TRY TO

MAKE COMMUNITIES A BETTER PLACE

TO LIVE. TRYING TO MAKE SURE

THAT THESE KIDS CAN GO TO

SCHOOL UNAFRAID OF DRUG

EDEALERS; UNAFRAID OF PREDATORY

OFFENDERS OF ALL KINDS. PEOPLE

THAT DO THEM HARM WITH WEAPONS;

MY MOLESITATION; VICTIMIZING IN

MANY DIFFERENT WAYS. IF WE GET

ON TRACK AND START DEAL WG THE

REAL ISSUES LOOK AT OUR

SOCIETY; GUNS HAVE BEEN A PART

OF OUR NATION FROM THE

FOUNDATION. THESE MASS MURDERS

ARE THINGS THAT HAPPEN AND THEY

ARE OUTRAGEOUS AND IT HURTS

EVERYONE. IT HURTS EVERYONE.

THERE ARE PEOPLE USING FIRE

ALARMS TO GET PEOPLE TO COME

OUT OF BUILDINGS AND CRASH INTO

WITH A VEHICLE AND SLASH WITH

KNIVES. WE NEED TO TAKE KNIVES

AWAY; AND CARS.

DOESN'T SOLVE IT; DOES IT? THE PROBLEM IS IN

OUR SOCIETY; THE DEGRADATION OF

OUR SOCIETY. QUH I WAS A KID

TO NOW; THE CHANGES I

HAVE SEEN AND BEING IN

LAW ENFORCEMENT BOTH ENDS OF THE SPECTRUM OF

EVIL VERSUS GOOD; YOU GUYS HAVE

SEEN IT AS PROSECUTORS; I

HAVE SEEN IT RAW AND FRESH ON THE

FRONT

LINES. YOUTH MURDERED BECAUSE THEY ARE INVOLVED

WITH GANGS AND DRUGS. RIGHT ON DOWN

THE LINE. THERE IS A LOT MORE

TO DEAL WITH AND GUNS ARE NOT

GOING TO DO IT; MAKE ING THE

KIDS SAFE ISN'T GOING TO FILL

IT ALL EITHER. WE GOT TO GET

THE FOCUS ON WHAT NEEDS TO BE

DONE AND THAT'S A HEART AND

MIND CHANGE IN THIS NATION AND

OF ITS PEOPLE. WE HAVE BEGUN

TO ACCEPT SO MANY THINGS THAT

20 YEARS AGO WERE NOT

ACCEPTABLE; BUT WE KEEP GOING

DOWN HILL. I'M SPEAKING AS A

FATHER; I'M SPEAKING AS A LAW

ENFORCEMENT OFFICER; TRYING TO

KEEP MY KIDS SAFE AND TRYING TO

KEEP YOURS SAFE AS WELL. IF WE

GET OUR FOCUS ON THE RIGHT

PLACE; WE CAN START MAKING

A DIFFERENCE.

>> CHAIR: THANK YOU; MATTE;

MATT; REPRESENTATIVE WARD; BELIEVE YOU HAVE THE LAST WORD

ON THE

SUBJECT. >> REPRESENTATIVE WARD: THANK

YOU; MR. CHAIR; I APPRECIATE

BEING RECOGNIZED. I WAS PART

OF SEVERAL SCHOOL DISTRICTS IN

THE EAST METRO AREA THAT MET

WITH TRAINERS-I DON'T REMEMBER

WHETHER IT WAS HOME LAND

SECURITY OR THE EQUIVALENT OF

THAT; EXPERTS COMING FROM THE

NATIONAL ORGANIZATIONS AFTER

COLLIN BINE SO WE HAD HUGE

ROOMS OF

EDUCATORS; ADMINISTRATORS; TEACHERS AND

SOME STUDENTS GOING THROUGH A

CONVERSATION ABOUT WHAT

HAPPENED AT COLUMBINE AND

WHAT SCHOOLS NEEDED TO DO AND THAT

WAS PART THE ASSESSMENT SO IT

IS ONGOING AND IT IS A PIECE OF

A EVOLUTION. THIS IS A PART OF

THE PUZZLE; A LARGE PUZZLE THAT

HAS A LOT OF PIECES THAT WE

HAVE IN SOME CASES NEGLECTED.

ONE IS SCHOOL COUNSELORS AND

OTHER IS SUPPORT SERVICES FOR

STUDENTS; SERIOUSLY LACKING IN

OUR SCHOOLS. ALL OF

OUR SCHOOLS. WE HAVE A VIOLENT

CULTURE; AND THAT'S ONE OF THE

THINGS I AGREE REPRESENTATIVE

GROSSELL WE REALLY NEED TO

ADDRESS. PART OF THE PUZZLE.

HEALTHCARE; MENTAL

HEALTH SERVICES; SOME KNOW

MY YOUNGER SON IS A ER DOCTOR AND WE HAD

CONVERSATIONS ABOUT A SHIFT

DOESN'T GO BY BUT HE HAS

SOMEONE COMING IN WITH

REACHING THE BOTTOM WHETHER THEY ARE

DEPRESSED OR WHETHER THEY HAVE

AN ADDICTION PROBLEM; AND

THEY WANT HELP; AND HE CAN'T DO

ANYTHING BECAUSE THERE ARE NO

BEDS. IF THEY ARE REALLY DRUNK

OUT OF THEIR MINDS HE CAN HOLD

THEM 24 HOUR JZ HOPEFULLY THEY

WILL GET SERVICES AS THEY

SOBER UP THEY WILL BE IN A

POSITION WHERE THEY CAN ASK FOR HELP;

AND IF THEY GOT

MONEY SOMEHOW THERE WILL BE A BED THAT WILL

TAKE THEM; THEY WILL FIND A

BED; BUT THEY HAVE

TO HAVE MONEY; THEY HAVE TO HAVE CASH

OR HAVE TO HAVE INSURANCE THAT

WILL COVER THEM. AND WE ARE

MISSING ALL OF THOSE PEOPLE.

THEY ARE DROPPING THROUGH THE

CRACKS BECAUSE WE DON'T PROVIDE

THE SERVICES THAT THEY NEED SO

IT IS BIGGER PROBLEM THAN

THE SCHOOLS; BUT I HAVE ONE

QUESTION; A DIFFERENCE BETWEEN

THESE TWO BILLS AND THOUGHT WE

ARE HEARING THIS

UNEDUCATION; WHY IS IT IN PUBLIC SAFETY?

ONE SAYS PUBLIC SAFETY AND ONE

SAYS EDUCATION; DEPARTMENT OF

EDUCATION; DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC

SAFETY. ARE WE ASKING FOR

MONEY FROM BOTH OF

THESE AGENCIES OR IS IT LAID OVER

HERE; IT IS IN PUBLIC

SAFETY BUDGET? AND Y WOULD LIKE TO

CLAR IFICATION ON THAT PLEASE.

>> CHAIR. TO THE

TESTIFIERS WHO WANTS TO TAKE THAT ONE?

>> REPRESENTATIVE JESSUP: MR.

CHAIR AND ROPET

ATIVE WARD; I WOULD SAY AT THIS POINT IT WILL

BE LAID OVER AND

PROBABLY DISCUSSED BETWEEN CHAIR OF YOUR

COMMITTEE AS WELL AS THE CHAIR

OF EDUCATION FINANCE TO

DETERMINE WHERE SHOULD THIS

BEST FIT. I DON'T COME BEFORE

YOU AND SAY I HAVE THE ANSWER

TO YOUR QUESTION; BUT I

ANTICIPATE THAT IF THIS

COMMITTEE AGREES YES THIS IS

THE RIGHT INITIATIVE TO MOVE

FORWARD; EDUCATION FINANCE SAID

YES WE BELIEVE THE IS

INITIATIVE TO MOVE FORWARD. WE

HAD SIMILAR HEARINGS IN THE

SENATE AT SOME POINT IT WILL BE

PUT INTO ONE OF THE TWO

COMMITTEES ON THE BILLS.

>> CHAIR: THANK YOU. WAS

THERE ONE SMALL [INAUDIBLE

COMMENTS] >> I WANT TO ASK;

REPRESENTATIVE WARD POINTING OUT THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE

BILLS MADE

ME NOTICE REPRESENTATIVE [INAUDIBLE

COMMENTS] I ASSUME IS REAL

APPEALING TO ALL SO I WONDER IF

REPRESENTATIVE

CHRISTENSEN COULD IF AS THE BILL GETS

MERGED FORWARD IF THAT IS

SOMETHING YOU ANTICIPATE SUPPORTING TO MAKE SURE THE

LANGUAGE DOES INCLUDE THE

LANGUAGE IN

REPRESENTATIVE JESSUP'S BILL BUT TAKING A LOOK

THAT FULL SECURITY PICTURE FOR

THE SCHOOLS THAT INCLUDE THE

CRISIS MANAGEMENT POLICY.

>> REPRESENTATIVE

CHRISTENSEN: I ABSOLUTELY SUPPORT THAT

LANGUAGE WE JUST DRAFTD

DIFFERENTLY. >> CHAIR: ANYONE FROM THE

PUBLIC THAT WOULD LIKE TO OFFER

TESTIMONY ON EITHER OF THESE

BILLS? OKAY; SEEING NONE-CHAIR

WILL MOVE THAT HOUSE FILE 3885

LAID OVER

FOR POSSIBLE INCLUSION IN THE

OMNIBUS BILL; AND HOUSE FILE 3676 WILL BE

LAID OVER FOR POSSIBLE

INCLUSION ALSO. THANK YOU FOR

YOUR TESTIMONY.

ANYTHING ELSE? ALRIGHT; THANK YOU FOR COMING

AND WE'LL

ADJOURN. [MEETING ADJOURNED]
