They say we would be off the air before 7:40AM. Before I confirm, is this okay with our schedule? Last I checked it is a ten-minute drive from Fox to CNBC so this would be okay since the CNBC hit time is 8:10AM, but just wanted to make sure everyone else was okay with the change.

Last I checked it is a ten-minute drive from Fox to CNBC so this would be okay since the CNBC hit time is 8:10AM, but just wanted to make sure everyone else was okay with the change.

They say we would be off the air before 7:40AM. Before I confirm, is this okay with our schedule? Last I checked it is a ten-minute drive from Fox to CNBC so this would be okay since the CNBC hit time is 8:10AM, but just wanted to make sure everyone else was okay with the change.

They say we would be off the air before 7:40AM. Before I confirm, is this okay with our schedule? Last I checked it is a ten-minute drive from Fox to CNBC so this would be okay since the CNBC hit time is 8:10AM, but just wanted to make sure everyone else was okay with the change.

I am withholding personal email addresses, home telephone numbers, personal addresses, credit card numbers, frequent flyer numbers, tenant names, and personal cell phone numbers under Exemption 6 of the FOIA, because release of such information would constitute an unwarranted invasion of personal privacy. The interest of the general public in reviewing these portions of government documents does not outweigh the individuals’ right to privacy. The Department is still reviewing records that may be responsive to your request and plans to make rolling releases on a monthly basis until completed. A final response letter will be sent to you at the completion of the review process. For your information, your FOIA request, including your identity and any information made available, is releasable to the public under subsequent FOIA requests. In responding to these requests, the Department does not release personal information, such as home address, telephone number, or Social Security number, all of which are protected from disclosure under FOIA Exemption 6.

Univeristy of Florida; J.D. University of Miami Notable Previous Positions: Sought Republican nomination for president, 2016; Florida House (2000-2008; majority leader, 203-2006; speaker, 2006-2008); West Miami City Commission (1998-2000), lawyer Committee Assignments: Appropriations; Foreign Relations; Small Business & Entrepreneurship; Select Intelligence; Special Aging Excerpted from Congressional Quarterly Rubio won a second term in the Senate by defeating Democrat Patrick Murphy by a robust margin of more than 700,000 votes. In the early months of 2017, he was figuring out his role as sometimes a supporter, sometimes an opponent of President Donald Trump. Rubio voiced doubts about Trump’s nominee for secretary of State, Rex Tillerson, the former chairman and chief executive of ExxonMobil. During Tillerson’s confirmation hearing before the Foreign Relations Committee, Rubio was disturbed that Tillerson wouldn’t call Russian President Vladimir Putin a war criminal and wouldn’t condemn Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte and the governments of China and Saudi Arabia for human rights violations. In addition to serving on the Foreign Relations Committee, where he is the chairman of the Western Hemisphere subcommittee, and on the Intelligence Committee, Rubio joined the Appropriations Committee in the 115h Congress. He shows signs of becoming a Senate institutionalist, a senator who cherishes the body’s tradition of respectful debate. After losing to Trump in the Florida Republican primary, Rubio ended his presidential campaign on March 15, 2016. Three months later, he re-entered the Senate race that he’d dropped out of to seek the presidency. Rubio pointed to the need for senators who would “act as a check and balance on the excesses of a president,” whether that president was Trump or Hillary Clinton. The issue on which Rubio played an especially significant role in his first term and may do so again in the future is immigration. Rubio was part of a bipartisan group of senators known as the “gang of eight” who in 2013 produced a sweeping bill to overhaul the immigration system. 11 VERSIGHT HUD-17-0234-B-000035 Most notably, the bill would have allowed illegal immigrants already in the county to apply for probationary legal status and eventually seek citizenship. In October 2015, Rubio supported the “sanctuary cities” bill introduced by Sen. David Vitter, R- La., that would deny certain federal grants to cities that have a policy of shielding illegal immigrants from deportation. On foreign policy, Rubio is in the interventionist and internationalist tradition of Sen. John McCain of Arizona and former President George W. Bush, but has also voted to limit presidential maneuverability abroad. Rubio’s parents left Cuba in 1956 and settled in Miami, where he was born. His website had said the family fled the regime of Fidel Castro -- who took power in 1959 -- until the St. Petersburg Times reported the inaccuracy in 2011. The family moved to Las Vegas when Rubio was 8, and he, along with his mother, converted to Mormonism. They later returned to both Miami and Catholicism. Rubio spent one year at Tarkio College in Missouri on a football scholarship before transferring to a community college in Florida. (Tarkio went bankrupt in 1991.) He earned an undergraduate degree at the University of Florida. Along the way, he was an intern for Republican Rep. Ileana Ros-Lehtinen. Rubio kept up his political activity while earning a law degree at the University of Miami. He was the South Florida coordinator of Bob Dole’s 1996 presidential campaign. He won a seat on the West Miami City Commission in 1998. Two years later he was elected to the Florida House, and the turnover resulting from the state’s term limits helped him rise to the position of speaker for his final term. In 2010, Rubio won his Senate seat by defeating Republican Gov. Charlie Crist, who had left the GOP to run as an independent, and Democratic Rep. Kendrick B. Meek. Rubio took 49 percent of the vote to Crist’s 30 percent and Meek’s 20 percent Rep. Al Lawson (D-FL-5) Term: 1st term (elected in 2016) Birthday: (b) (6) Hometown: Tallahassee, Florida Education: B.S. Florida A&M University; M.A.. Florida State Notable Previous Positions: Florida House (1982-2000); Florida Senate (2001-2010) Committee Assignments: Agriculture; Small Business (excerpted from the Congressman’s website) Congressman Al Lawson is a committed public servant who brings a hard-working, problem-solving spirit to Congress and to the task of creating jobs, improving access to a quality education from the preschool through the post-secondary level and protecting working families. Elected in November 2016 and sworn-in January 3, 2017, Lawson represents Florida’s 5th Congressional District. 12 VERSIGHT HUD-17-0234-B-000036 Congressman Lawson has devoted more than half of his life to public service and is guided by the belief that the greatest gift an individual can give is service to their community. Lawson has served the people of Florida for 28 years in the state legislature as a member of the Florida House of Representative and the Florida Senate. As a native of Midway, Florida, Lawson graduated from Havana Northside High School and received his Bachelor’s degree from Florida Agricultural and Mechanical University (FAMU), where he lettered in basketball and ran track. Lawson went on to earn a Master’s degree in Public Administration from Florida State University and completed his coursework for a Ph.D. in Public Administration. Lawson married his college sweetheart (b) (6) He is also the proud grandfather of (b) (6) and they have two adult children, (b) (6) . . Congressman Lawson’s work ethic, problem-solving approach, and ability to build collaborative working relationships with colleagues, regardless of political party, in Florida will serve him well in Washington, D.C. As a dedicated public servant, Lawson begins each morning with a prayer, and a firm promise “to do the people’s work.” It is this simple philosophy that defines him as a man of character and substance that always keep his promise. Councilman Garret Dennis Jacksonville, Florida Garrett Dennis is a native of Jacksonville, Florida. He is a graduate of Jean Ribault Senior High School, Class of 1992. Garrett attended Florida A&M University, where he earned his Bachelor of Science Degree. He later attended University of North Florida in Jacksonville, Florida and earned his Masters of Educational Leadership. Garrett worked for Duval County Public Schools from 1997-2001 as science and math teacher. On March 24, 2015, Garrett was elected to the Jacksonville City Council, to represent the constituents of City Council District 9. In addition to serving on the Jacksonville City Council, Garrett is also the managing member of a local construction company. Garrett and his lovely wife (b) (6) have been married for 17 years and have 2 beautiful, amazing children, . They are members of Impact Church. (b) (6) 13 HUD-17-0234-B-000037 (b) (6) President, Eureka Gardens Tenants’ Association In September 2010, Tracy applied for the apartment, signed her lease, got my keys and did the walk through. Tracy personally witnessed and experienced the terrible living conditions and the prevalent crime in and around Eureka Gardens. She realized this was not an environment that she wanted her children to have to grow up in and she wanted to do something about it. When another young man was shot in October 2014, many residents were fed up with the poor conditions created by the owner’s neglect of the property and the crime it attracted, so they had a resident meeting. There, she realized that she wasn’t the only resident that felt this way about Eureka Gardens, and at the next resident meeting she was elected Tenants’ Association President. The nationwide attention that Eureka Gardens has received for gas leaks, persistent mold, and lead poisoning has all occurred during her tenure as President. After much frustration by the lack of changes at Eureka Gardens she wrote a letter outlining the issues and concerns and sent it to local officials, including the HUD office. On October 2, 2015, she received a response back, and before you knew it we had Mayor Lenny Curry, Councilman Garrett Dennis, Pastor Mark Griffin, the fire marshal, the sheriff lined up in support. Even with all of this support, conditions did not significantly improve. She continues to work to improve the living conditions. John Rood Former U.S. Ambassador to the Bahamas Ambassador John D. Rood was appointed by President George W. Bush in July 2004 to be Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary of the United States of America to the Commonwealth of The Bahamas. He is the eleventh U.S. Ambassador to The Bahamas. Ambassador Rood is the former Chairman of The Vestcor Companies, a Jacksonville, FL, real estate development and management firm that he founded in 1983 as a brokerage for multifamily properties. Under his direction, the firm expanded to include real estate investments, development, construction, and property management services. Vestcor specializes in multifamily rental and condominium communities, as well as refurbishing historical sites. 14 VERSIGHT HUD-17-0234-B-000038 An avid fisherman and hunter, Ambassador Rood served as commissioner and chairman of Florida’s Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission, a body charged with exercising regulatory oversight over the state’s freshwater, marine and wild animal life. During his tenure, the Commission worked for the careful scientific management and conservation of Florida’s aquatic resources, particularly the endangered manatee. Ambassador Rood previously was a Director of the James Madison Institute, a Florida-based research and educational organization that advances practical free-market ideas on public policy issues. He was a founding board member of First Coast Family and Housing Foundation, a not-for-profit organization that owns and develops affordable housing. Ambassador Rood was a visiting professor at the University of North Florida. He holds a bachelors degree in business administration from the University of Montana. MIAMI BIOGRAPHIES Congressman Mario Diaz-Balart (R-FL-25) Term: 8th term (first elected in 2002) Birthday: (b) (6) Hometown: Fort Lauderdale, Florida Education: B.A. University of South Florida Notable Previous Positions: Florida House Member, Florida State Senate Member, Aide to former Miami Mayor Xavier Suarez Committee Assignments: Appropriations (subcommittees: THUD, Chairman; Defense; State-Foreign Operations) Congressional District: Southwestern Miami-Dade County, including the city of Hialeah, as well as much of the northern portion of the Everglades Excerpted from CQ profile Diaz-Balart will always be defined in part by a revolution: He comes from a famous Cuban political family that flourished under leader Fulgencio Batista, before Fidel Castro overthrew the government. His father, Rafael, was once majority leader of the Cuban House; his brother Lincoln served in the U.S. House for 18 years; and Mario himself served 14 years in the Florida legislature before joining his brother in Congress. He is a hardliner when it comes to U.S.-Cuba relations. 15 VERSIGHT HUD-17-0234-B-000039 For the foreseeable future, Diaz-Balart is likely to divide his time between immigration and appropriations. He joined the Appropriations Committee in 2011, and became chairman of the Transportation-HUD subcommittee for the 114th Congress (2015-16). Diaz-Balart has characteristics that many people traditionally associate with the committee: He’s generally supportive of his party’s platform, but his voting record does not suggest ideological rigidity. (He belongs to the moderate Main Street Partnership, and Heritage Action for America rates him as one of the least conservative House Republicans.) He once chaired the Appropriations Committee in the Florida Senate. In addition to immigration, Diaz-Balart has his work set out for him with positions on the budget and appropriations committees. He joined the Appropriations Committee in 2011 and has characteristics that many people traditionally associate with the committee: He’s generally supportive of his party’s platform, but his voting record does not suggest ideological rigidity. (He belongs to the moderate Main Street Partnership, and Heritage Action for America rates him as one of the least conservative House Republicans.) His position on health care is party-line: he introduced a repeal of the Affordable Care Act in the 114th Congress (2015-2016). Diaz-Balart’s first run as Transportation-HUD Appropriations Committee Chairman in 2015 was a tough one, with a $55.3 billion spending package just barely passing on a vote of 216-210. Many Republicans in Amtrak’s busy Northeast Corridor voted against the measure, which outlined more than $240 million in cuts to the passenger rail agency shortly after a derailment near Philadelphia that killed eight. Diaz-Balart is not a prolific author of legislation, preferring to influence policy more informally. As a member of the State-Foreign Operations Appropriations Subcommittee, Diaz-Balart has been a voice against deep cuts to foreign aid. He has also used his seat to drum up support for U.S. democracy promotion efforts and for programs to combat drug trafficking in Mexico and Central America. The youngest of four brothers, Diaz-Balart was born in Fort Lauderdale after his family had already fled Cuba. According to Ann Louise Bardach’s book “Cuba Confidential,” Castro has called the Diaz-Balarts his “most repulsive enemies.” The Diaz-Balarts have a family connection to the Castros, despite their enmity. Mario’s aunt was Fidel Castro’s first wife and mother of Castro’s son. Diaz-Balart dropped out of the University of South Florida to work on the campaign of Miami Mayor Xavier Suarez in 1985, the same year he and his brother switched to the Republican Party. In 1988, he was elected to the Florida House, and four years later he won a seat in the state Senate. Forced out by term limits in 2000, he ran successfully to return to the state House. Florida was awarded two new U.S. House seats for the 2002 election, and Diaz-Balart was appointed to lead the panel drawing a new congressional map. He helped draw a Hispanic-majority 25th District, then tried to capture it himself. He outspent Annie Betancourt, a Cuban-American Democrat, 6-to-1 and won with 65 percent of the vote. He joined his brother Lincoln, who had been serving since 1993, in Congress. In 2010, Diaz-Balart switched from the 25th District to the 21st District, a less competitive area left open by Lincoln’s retirement. The new congressional map for 2012 renumbered his district as the 25th, but it wasn’t any more competitive. The Democrats did not field a candidate to oppose him in 2012 or 2014.

Here it is below. Formerly known as Candy Rustin, she grew up in Detroit just like her husband, but the couple did not meet until they were both students at Yale University. Her mother was a church organist and urged her children to learn to play musical instruments. Candy and Ben married in 1975 and have three sons, Murray, Benjamin, Jr., and Rhoeyce. Ben often tells a story about how he knew they were destined to be together, following what could have been a serious car wreck during which he fell asleep behind the wheel while Candy slept in the passenger seat. Candy was a triple-major at Yale, studying music, medicine, and psychology and also holds an MBA. In addition to keeping her musical career alive in the Baltimore area where the couple lives, she works as a real estate agent. Candy cofounded, along with her husband, the Carson Scholars Fund, established in 1994 to help provide scholarships for college students who do community service work. According to CBS News, the Carson Scholars Fund gives out more than 500 awards annually.

Here it is below. Formerly known as Candy Rustin, she grew up in Detroit just like her husband, but the couple did not meet until they were both students at Yale University. Her mother was a church organist and urged her children to learn to play musical instruments. Candy and Ben married in 1975 and have three sons, Murray, Benjamin, Jr., and Rhoeyce. Ben often tells a story about how he knew they were destined to be together, following what could have been a serious car wreck during which he fell asleep behind the wheel while Candy slept in the passenger seat. Candy was a triple-major at Yale, studying music, medicine, and psychology and also holds an MBA. In addition to keeping her musical career alive in the Baltimore area where the couple lives, she works as a real estate agent. Candy cofounded, along with her husband, the Carson Scholars Fund, established in 1994 to help provide scholarships for college students who do community service work. According to CBS News, the Carson Scholars Fund gives out more than 500 awards annually.

Univeristy of Florida; J.D. University of Miami Notable Previous Positions: Sought Republican nomination for president, 2016; Florida House (2000-2008; majority leader, 203-2006; speaker, 2006-2008); West Miami City Commission (1998-2000), lawyer Committee Assignments: Appropriations; Foreign Relations; Small Business & Entrepreneurship; Select Intelligence; Special Aging Excerpted from Congressional Quarterly Rubio won a second term in the Senate by defeating Democrat Patrick Murphy by a robust margin of more than 700,000 votes. In the early months of 2017, he was figuring out his role as sometimes a supporter, sometimes an opponent of President Donald Trump. Rubio voiced doubts about Trump’s nominee for secretary of State, Rex Tillerson, the former chairman and chief executive of ExxonMobil. During Tillerson’s confirmation hearing before the Foreign Relations Committee, Rubio was disturbed that Tillerson wouldn’t call Russian President Vladimir Putin a war criminal and wouldn’t condemn Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte and the governments of China and Saudi Arabia for human rights violations. In addition to serving on the Foreign Relations Committee, where he is the chairman of the Western Hemisphere subcommittee, and on the Intelligence Committee, Rubio joined the Appropriations Committee in the 115h Congress. He shows signs of becoming a Senate institutionalist, a senator who cherishes the body’s tradition of respectful debate. After losing to Trump in the Florida Republican primary, Rubio ended his presidential campaign on March 15, 2016. Three months later, he re-entered the Senate race that he’d dropped out of to seek the presidency. Rubio pointed to the need for senators who would “act as a check and balance on the excesses of a president,” whether that president was Trump or Hillary Clinton. The issue on which Rubio played an especially significant role in his first term and may do so again in the future is immigration. Rubio was part of a bipartisan group of senators known as the “gang of eight” who in 2013 produced a sweeping bill to overhaul the immigration system. 11 VERSIGHT HUD-17-0234-C-000055 Most notably, the bill would have allowed illegal immigrants already in the county to apply for probationary legal status and eventually seek citizenship. In October 2015, Rubio supported the “sanctuary cities” bill introduced by Sen. David Vitter, R- La., that would deny certain federal grants to cities that have a policy of shielding illegal immigrants from deportation. On foreign policy, Rubio is in the interventionist and internationalist tradition of Sen. John McCain of Arizona and former President George W. Bush, but has also voted to limit presidential maneuverability abroad. Rubio’s parents left Cuba in 1956 and settled in Miami, where he was born. His website had said the family fled the regime of Fidel Castro -- who took power in 1959 -- until the St. Petersburg Times reported the inaccuracy in 2011. The family moved to Las Vegas when Rubio was 8, and he, along with his mother, converted to Mormonism. They later returned to both Miami and Catholicism. Rubio spent one year at Tarkio College in Missouri on a football scholarship before transferring to a community college in Florida. (Tarkio went bankrupt in 1991.) He earned an undergraduate degree at the University of Florida. Along the way, he was an intern for Republican Rep. Ileana Ros-Lehtinen. Rubio kept up his political activity while earning a law degree at the University of Miami. He was the South Florida coordinator of Bob Dole’s 1996 presidential campaign. He won a seat on the West Miami City Commission in 1998. Two years later he was elected to the Florida House, and the turnover resulting from the state’s term limits helped him rise to the position of speaker for his final term. In 2010, Rubio won his Senate seat by defeating Republican Gov. Charlie Crist, who had left the GOP to run as an independent, and Democratic Rep. Kendrick B. Meek. Rubio took 49 percent of the vote to Crist’s 30 percent and Meek’s 20 percent Rep.

Tracy personally witnessed and experienced the terrible living conditions and the prevalent crime in and around Eureka Gardens. She realized this was not an environment that she wanted her children to have to grow up in and she wanted to do something about it. When another young man was shot in October 2014, many residents were fed up with the poor conditions created by the owner’s neglect of the property and the crime it attracted, so they had a resident meeting. There, she realized that she wasn’t the only resident that felt this way about Eureka Gardens, and at the next resident meeting she was elected Tenants’ Association President. The nationwide attention that Eureka Gardens has received for gas leaks, persistent mold, and lead poisoning has all occurred during her tenure as President. After much frustration by the lack of changes at Eureka Gardens she wrote a letter outlining the issues and concerns and sent it to local officials, including the HUD office. On October 2, 2015, she received a response back, and before you knew it we had Mayor Lenny Curry, Councilman Garrett Dennis, Pastor Mark Griffin, the fire marshal, the sheriff lined up in support. Even with all of this support, conditions did not significantly improve. She continues to work to improve the living conditions. John Rood Former U.S. Ambassador to the Bahamas Ambassador John D.

MIAMI BIOGRAPHIES Congressman Mario Diaz-Balart (R-FL-25) Term: 8th term (first elected in 2002) Birthday: September 25, 1961 Hometown: Fort Lauderdale, Florida Education: B.A. University of South Florida Notable Previous Positions: Florida House Member, Florida State Senate Member, Aide to former Miami Mayor Xavier Suarez Committee Assignments: Appropriations (subcommittees: THUD, Chairman; Defense; State-Foreign Operations) Congressional District: Southwestern Miami-Dade County, including the city of Hialeah, as well as much of the northern portion of the Everglades Excerpted from CQ profile Diaz-Balart will always be defined in part by a revolution: He comes from a famous Cuban political family that flourished under leader Fulgencio Batista, before Fidel Castro overthrew the government. His father, Rafael, was once majority leader of the Cuban House; his brother Lincoln served in the U.S. House for 18 years; and Mario himself served 14 years in the Florida legislature before joining his brother in Congress. He is a hardliner when it comes to U.S.-Cuba relations. 15 VERSIGHT HUD-17-0234-C-000059 For the foreseeable future, Diaz-Balart is likely to divide his time between immigration and appropriations. He joined the Appropriations Committee in 2011, and became chairman of the Transportation-HUD subcommittee for the 114th Congress (2015-16). Diaz-Balart has characteristics that many people traditionally associate with the committee: He’s generally supportive of his party’s platform, but his voting record does not suggest ideological rigidity. (He belongs to the moderate Main Street Partnership, and Heritage Action for America rates him as one of the least conservative House Republicans.) He once chaired the Appropriations Committee in the Florida Senate. In addition to immigration, Diaz-Balart has his work set out for him with positions on the budget and appropriations committees. He joined the Appropriations Committee in 2011 and has characteristics that many people traditionally associate with the committee: He’s generally supportive of his party’s platform, but his voting record does not suggest ideological rigidity. (He belongs to the moderate Main Street Partnership, and Heritage Action for America rates him as one of the least conservative House Republicans.) His position on health care is party-line: he introduced a repeal of the Affordable Care Act in the 114th Congress (2015-2016). Diaz-Balart’s first run as Transportation-HUD Appropriations Committee Chairman in 2015 was a tough one, with a $55.3 billion spending package just barely passing on a vote of 216-210. Many Republicans in Amtrak’s busy Northeast Corridor voted against the measure, which outlined more than $240 million in cuts to the passenger rail agency shortly after a derailment near Philadelphia that killed eight. Diaz-Balart is not a prolific author of legislation, preferring to influence policy more informally. As a member of the State-Foreign Operations Appropriations Subcommittee, Diaz-Balart has been a voice against deep cuts to foreign aid. He has also used his seat to drum up support for U.S. democracy promotion efforts and for programs to combat drug trafficking in Mexico and Central America. The youngest of four brothers, Diaz-Balart was born in Fort Lauderdale after his family had already fled Cuba. According to Ann Louise Bardach’s book “Cuba Confidential,” Castro has called the Diaz-Balarts his “most repulsive enemies.” The Diaz-Balarts have a family connection to the Castros, despite their enmity. Mario’s aunt was Fidel Castro’s first wife and mother of Castro’s son. Diaz-Balart dropped out of the University of South Florida to work on the campaign of Miami Mayor Xavier Suarez in 1985, the same year he and his brother switched to the Republican Party. In 1988, he was elected to the Florida House, and four years later he won a seat in the state Senate. Forced out by term limits in 2000, he ran successfully to return to the state House. Florida was awarded two new U.S. House seats for the 2002 election, and Diaz-Balart was appointed to lead the panel drawing a new congressional map. He helped draw a Hispanic-majority 25th District, then tried to capture it himself. He outspent Annie Betancourt, a Cuban-American Democrat, 6-to-1 and won with 65 percent of the vote. He joined his brother Lincoln, who had been serving since 1993, in Congress. In 2010, Diaz-Balart switched from the 25th District to the 21st District, a less competitive area left open by Lincoln’s retirement. The new congressional map for 2012 renumbered his district as the 25th, but it wasn’t any more competitive. The Democrats did not field a candidate to oppose him in 2012 or 2014.

The project will pair the existing occupied Liberty Square site with Lincoln Gardens, a vacant public housing site located in Brownsville (approximately two miles from Liberty Square). This will be the most significant project in terms of impact on the future of Miami-Dade's Public Housing and Community Development's (PHCD's) public housing inventory, with an estimated total development cost of over $307 million. Liberty Square is one of the oldest public housing developments in the southeastern United States having been completed in the late 1930's. The redevelopment plan is to demolish all existing 709 public housing units and replace with a mix of over 1,500 new units to include public housing, affordable housing, market rate and homeownership units. Community, education and healthcare facilities, as well as retail and a major grocery store, will also be provided. The design of the project incorporates Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design (CPT ED) strategies.

FMU executed a “Collegiate Partnership Agreement” in the form of an MOU with HUD on March 11, 2014. The four-fold premise of the agreement was: 1. to promote working partnerships between HUD and its University neighbors to affirmatively further fair housing within their jurisdictions; 2. for HUD to conduct fair housing workshops at FMU to promote campus-wide knowledge to students and staff about their fair housing rights; 3. to provide for the university to identify and forward students it chooses to HUD to participate in student internship opportunities at HUD so students can learn about the fair housing laws while concurrently gaining public service experience working for the federal government; and 4. for HUD and the university to collaborate on the creation and inclusion of a fair housing course in the university’s curriculum. Since the initial execution of the MOU, HUD has conducted six workshops at the university, while seven FMU students have completed internships at HUD. The Miami Office is in the process of renewing the MOU with FMU.

Univeristy of Florida; J.D. University of Miami Notable Previous Positions: Sought Republican nomination for president, 2016; Florida House (2000-2008; majority leader, 203-2006; speaker, 2006-2008); West Miami City Commission (1998-2000), lawyer Committee Assignments: Appropriations; Foreign Relations; Small Business & Entrepreneurship; Select Intelligence; Special Aging Excerpted from Congressional Quarterly Rubio won a second term in the Senate by defeating Democrat Patrick Murphy by a robust margin of more than 700,000 votes. In the early months of 2017, he was figuring out his role as sometimes a supporter, sometimes an opponent of President Donald Trump. Rubio voiced doubts about Trump’s nominee for secretary of State, Rex Tillerson, the former chairman and chief executive of ExxonMobil. During Tillerson’s confirmation hearing before the Foreign Relations Committee, Rubio was disturbed that Tillerson wouldn’t call Russian President Vladimir Putin a war criminal and wouldn’t condemn Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte and the governments of China and Saudi Arabia for human rights violations. In addition to serving on the Foreign Relations Committee, where he is the chairman of the Western Hemisphere subcommittee, and on the Intelligence Committee, Rubio joined the Appropriations Committee in the 115h Congress. He shows signs of becoming a Senate institutionalist, a senator who cherishes the body’s tradition of respectful debate. After losing to Trump in the Florida Republican primary, Rubio ended his presidential campaign on March 15, 2016. Three months later, he re-entered the Senate race that he’d dropped out of to seek the presidency. Rubio pointed to the need for senators who would “act as a check and balance on the excesses of a president,” whether that president was Trump or Hillary Clinton. The issue on which Rubio played an especially significant role in his first term and may do so again in the future is immigration. Rubio was part of a bipartisan group of senators known as the “gang of eight” who in 2013 produced a sweeping bill to overhaul the immigration system. 11 VERSIGHT HUD-17-0234-C-000177 Most notably, the bill would have allowed illegal immigrants already in the county to apply for probationary legal status and eventually seek citizenship. In October 2015, Rubio supported the “sanctuary cities” bill introduced by Sen. David Vitter, R- La., that would deny certain federal grants to cities that have a policy of shielding illegal immigrants from deportation. On foreign policy, Rubio is in the interventionist and internationalist tradition of Sen. John McCain of Arizona and former President George W. Bush, but has also voted to limit presidential maneuverability abroad. Rubio’s parents left Cuba in 1956 and settled in Miami, where he was born. His website had said the family fled the regime of Fidel Castro -- who took power in 1959 -- until the St. Petersburg Times reported the inaccuracy in 2011. The family moved to Las Vegas when Rubio was 8, and he, along with his mother, converted to Mormonism. They later returned to both Miami and Catholicism. Rubio spent one year at Tarkio College in Missouri on a football scholarship before transferring to a community college in Florida. (Tarkio went bankrupt in 1991.) He earned an undergraduate degree at the University of Florida. Along the way, he was an intern for Republican Rep. Ileana Ros-Lehtinen. Rubio kept up his political activity while earning a law degree at the University of Miami. He was the South Florida coordinator of Bob Dole’s 1996 presidential campaign. He won a seat on the West Miami City Commission in 1998. Two years later he was elected to the Florida House, and the turnover resulting from the state’s term limits helped him rise to the position of speaker for his final term. In 2010, Rubio won his Senate seat by defeating Republican Gov. Charlie Crist, who had left the GOP to run as an independent, and Democratic Rep. Kendrick B. Meek. Rubio took 49 percent of the vote to Crist’s 30 percent and Meek’s 20 percent Rep. Al Lawson (D-FL-5) Term: 1st term (elected in 2016) Birthday: September 21, 1948 Hometown: Tallahassee, Florida Education: B.S. Florida A&M University; M.A.. Florida State Notable Previous Positions: Florida House (1982-2000); Florida Senate (2001-2010) Committee Assignments: Agriculture; Small Business (excerpted from the Congressman’s website) Congressman Al Lawson is a committed public servant who brings a hard-working, problem-solving spirit to Congress and to the task of creating jobs, improving access to a quality education from the preschool through the post-secondary level and protecting working families. Elected in November 2016 and sworn-in January 3, 2017, Lawson represents Florida’s 5th Congressional District. 12 .,OVERSIGHT HUD-17-0234-C-000178 Congressman Lawson has devoted more than half of his life to public service and is guided by the belief that the greatest gift an individual can give is service to their community. Lawson has served the people of Florida for 28 years in the state legislature as a member of the Florida House of Representative and the Florida Senate. As a native of Midway, Florida, Lawson graduated from Havana Northside High School and received his Bachelor’s degree from Florida Agricultural and Mechanical University (FAMU), where he lettered in basketball and ran track. Lawson went on to earn a Master’s degree in Public Administration from Florida State University and completed his coursework for a Ph.D. in Public Administration. Lawson married his college sweetheart Delores Brooks and they have two adult children, Alfred III and Shani. He is also the proud grandfather of Kobe, Samuel and Cameron Lawson. Congressman Lawson’s work ethic, problem-solving approach, and ability to build collaborative working relationships with colleagues, regardless of political party, in Florida will serve him well in Washington, D.C. As a dedicated public servant, Lawson begins each morning with a prayer, and a firm promise “to do the people’s work.” It is this simple philosophy that defines him as a man of character and substance that always keep his promise. Councilman Garret Dennis Jacksonville, Florida Garrett Dennis is a native of Jacksonville, Florida. He is a graduate of Jean Ribault Senior High School, Class of 1992. Garrett attended Florida A&M University, where he earned his Bachelor of Science Degree. He later attended University of North Florida in Jacksonville, Florida and earned his Masters of Educational Leadership. Garrett worked for Duval County Public Schools from 1997-2001 as science and math teacher. On March 24, 2015, Garrett was elected to the Jacksonville City Council, to represent the constituents of City Council District 9. In addition to serving on the Jacksonville City Council, Garrett is also the managing member of a local construction company. Garrett and his lovely wife Latasha have been married for 17 years and have 2 beautiful, amazing children, Garrett and Samantha. They are members of Impact Church. 13 pVERSIGHT HUD-17-0234-C-000179 Tracy Grant President, Eureka Gardens Tenants’ Association In September 2010, Tracy applied for the apartment, signed her lease, got my keys and did the walk through. Tracy personally witnessed and experienced the terrible living conditions and the prevalent crime in and around Eureka Gardens. She realized this was not an environment that she wanted her children to have to grow up in and she wanted to do something about it. When another young man was shot in October 2014, many residents were fed up with the poor conditions created by the owner’s neglect of the property and the crime it attracted, so they had a resident meeting. There, she realized that she wasn’t the only resident that felt this way about Eureka Gardens, and at the next resident meeting she was elected Tenants’ Association President. The nationwide attention that Eureka Gardens has received for gas leaks, persistent mold, and lead poisoning has all occurred during her tenure as President. After much frustration by the lack of changes at Eureka Gardens she wrote a letter outlining the issues and concerns and sent it to local officials, including the HUD office. On October 2, 2015, she received a response back, and before you knew it we had Mayor Lenny Curry, Councilman Garrett Dennis, Pastor Mark Griffin, the fire marshal, the sheriff lined up in support. Even with all of this support, conditions did not significantly improve. She continues to work to improve the living conditions. John Rood Former U.S. Ambassador to the Bahamas Ambassador John D. Rood was appointed by President George W. Bush in July 2004 to be Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary of the United States of America to the Commonwealth of The Bahamas.

MIAMI BIOGRAPHIES Congressman Mario Diaz-Balart (R-FL-25) Term: 8th term (first elected in 2002) Birthday: September 25, 1961 Hometown: Fort Lauderdale, Florida Education: B.A. University of South Florida Notable Previous Positions: Florida House Member, Florida State Senate Member, Aide to former Miami Mayor Xavier Suarez Committee Assignments: Appropriations (subcommittees: THUD, Chairman; Defense; State-Foreign Operations) Congressional District: Southwestern Miami-Dade County, including the city of Hialeah, as well as much of the northern portion of the Everglades Excerpted from CQ profile Diaz-Balart will always be defined in part by a revolution: He comes from a famous Cuban political family that flourished under leader Fulgencio Batista, before Fidel Castro overthrew the government. His father, Rafael, was once majority leader of the Cuban House; his brother Lincoln served in the U.S. House for 18 years; and Mario himself served 14 years in the Florida legislature before joining his brother in Congress. He is a hardliner when it comes to U.S.-Cuba relations. 15 VERSIGHT HUD-17-0234-C-000181 For the foreseeable future, Diaz-Balart is likely to divide his time between immigration and appropriations. He joined the Appropriations Committee in 2011, and became chairman of the Transportation-HUD subcommittee for the 114th Congress (2015-16). Diaz-Balart has characteristics that many people traditionally associate with the committee: He’s generally supportive of his party’s platform, but his voting record does not suggest ideological rigidity. (He belongs to the moderate Main Street Partnership, and Heritage Action for America rates him as one of the least conservative House Republicans.) He once chaired the Appropriations Committee in the Florida Senate. In addition to immigration, Diaz-Balart has his work set out for him with positions on the budget and appropriations committees. He joined the Appropriations Committee in 2011 and has characteristics that many people traditionally associate with the committee: He’s generally supportive of his party’s platform, but his voting record does not suggest ideological rigidity. (He belongs to the moderate Main Street Partnership, and Heritage Action for America rates him as one of the least conservative House Republicans.) His position on health care is party-line: he introduced a repeal of the Affordable Care Act in the 114th Congress (2015-2016). Diaz-Balart’s first run as Transportation-HUD Appropriations Committee Chairman in 2015 was a tough one, with a $55.3 billion spending package just barely passing on a vote of 216-210. Many Republicans in Amtrak’s busy Northeast Corridor voted against the measure, which outlined more than $240 million in cuts to the passenger rail agency shortly after a derailment near Philadelphia that killed eight. Diaz-Balart is not a prolific author of legislation, preferring to influence policy more informally. As a member of the State-Foreign Operations Appropriations Subcommittee, Diaz-Balart has been a voice against deep cuts to foreign aid. He has also used his seat to drum up support for U.S. democracy promotion efforts and for programs to combat drug trafficking in Mexico and Central America. The youngest of four brothers, Diaz-Balart was born in Fort Lauderdale after his family had already fled Cuba. According to Ann Louise Bardach’s book “Cuba Confidential,” Castro has called the Diaz-Balarts his “most repulsive enemies.” The Diaz-Balarts have a family connection to the Castros, despite their enmity. Mario’s aunt was Fidel Castro’s first wife and mother of Castro’s son. Diaz-Balart dropped out of the University of South Florida to work on the campaign of Miami Mayor Xavier Suarez in 1985, the same year he and his brother switched to the Republican Party. In 1988, he was elected to the Florida House, and four years later he won a seat in the state Senate. Forced out by term limits in 2000, he ran successfully to return to the state House. Florida was awarded two new U.S. House seats for the 2002 election, and Diaz-Balart was appointed to lead the panel drawing a new congressional map. He helped draw a Hispanic-majority 25th District, then tried to capture it himself. He outspent Annie Betancourt, a Cuban-American Democrat, 6-to-1 and won with 65 percent of the vote. He joined his brother Lincoln, who had been serving since 1993, in Congress. In 2010, Diaz-Balart switched from the 25th District to the 21st District, a less competitive area left open by Lincoln’s retirement. The new congressional map for 2012 renumbered his district as the 25th, but it wasn’t any more competitive. The Democrats did not field a candidate to oppose him in 2012 or 2014.

Based upon my meeting with COS, Sheila Greenwood & Public Affairs this morning, attached is the updated version of the potential NYC LxL. We will be merging all programs into one schedule with a Homeowners Month theme. Please know that in lieu of the highlighted sections, SOHUD would now like to go to New Jersey on Sunday, June 11, 2017, immediately after his lunch with Pastor Bernard to visit the Bergen County chronic homelessness eradication program, as well as a potential Sandy recovery site or two (TBD). Given that it is a Sunday, we understand that the New Jersey field office will not be operational, but he expressed interest in possibly visiting the same, however, we defer to your collective opinion/experience in that regard. We apologize for all the due diligence that both you & Luigi have put into identifying such exciting properties in NYC, but given the circumstances, it was decided that diverting to New Jersey will be best, as SOHUD will be traveling to NYC more often and will have plenty of opportunities to visit New York on a later date. Lastly, please know that we may have a Fox & Friends camera crew traveling with us to New Jersey on Sunday. TBD. Therefore, any applicable New Jersey suggestions that you may have as delineated above are greatly appreciated! All copied are happy to jump on a call to discuss the same at your convenience!

In a letter dated June 20, 2018, you were informed the Department had processed 867 pages of the search results for this request and released the pages deemed responsive. In a letter dated July 16, 2018, you were informed the Department had processed 920 pages of the search results for this request and released the pages deemed responsive.

The Department has processed 925 additional pages of the search results for this release. I am withholding personal email addresses, home telephone numbers, personal addresses, credit card numbers, frequent flyer numbers, tenant names, and personal cell phone numbers under Exemption 6 of the FOIA, because release of such information would constitute an unwarranted invasion of personal privacy. The interest of the general public in reviewing these portions of government documents does not outweigh the individuals’ right to privacy. The Department is still reviewing records that may be responsive to your request and plans to make rolling releases the rest of August until completed. A final response letter will be sent to you at the completion of the review process. For your information, your FOIA request, including your identity and any information made available, is releasable to the public under subsequent FOIA requests.

Dr. Laffer hopes he can join us. The invitation is as follows: Laffer Associates will be hosting our 57th Washington Conference on Thursday May 18th, and Friday, May 19th, 2017. For more than 25 years we have held our conference in Washington, D.C. for the sole purpose of providing members of the financial community unparalleled access to the nation’s premier lawmakers and administrators. We would be honored if you would spend some time with us to share your thoughts and ideas about current policies, projects, and agendas on one of the two days of the conference. The attendees are top professionals at the most prestigious and influential investment management firms around the world. They know full well how critical the political process is and the impact it can have on asset valuations. As such, your insight would not only be met with enthusiasm by our politically astute clientele, but it would be of serious value to their investment outlook. We would be delighted if you speak to us for about 30 minutes during this conference at the Capitol Visitors Center on May 18th or at the Trump International on May 19th. Please contact Allison Laffer at (615) 460-0100 or by email AllisonLaffer@Laffer.com for further information. We look forward to your acceptance. Warmest Personal Regards, Arthur B.

All calendar entries reflecting Lacena (Candy) Carson attending or being invited to meetings. For calendar entries created in Outlook or similar programs, the documents should be produced in “memo” form to include all invitees, any notes, and all attachments. Please do not limit your search to Outlook calendars—we request the production of any calendar—paper or electronic, whether on government-issued or personal devices—used to track or coordinate how these individuals allocate their time on agency business. 5. Any agency materials provided to Lacena (Candy) Carson (whether draft or final), including, but not limited to, records provided to her via email, hyperlink, shared hard drive or digital folders, digital media, or hard copy. Documents distributed to invitees or attendees of any meeting to which Ms. Carson was invited or attended are responsive to this request. 6.

If Ms. Carson uses or has access to any HUD filing cabinets, any agency records contained in those filing cabinets. Please provide all responsive records from March 2, 2017, to the date the search is conducted. In addition to the records requested above, American Oversight also requests records describing the processing of this request, including records sufficient to identify search terms used and locations and custodians searched and any tracking sheets used to track the processing of this request. If your agency uses FOIA questionnaires or certifications completed by individual custodians or components to determine whether they possess responsive materials or to describe 2 AMERICAN PVERSIGHT HUD-17-0234 HUD-17-0234-D-000139 how they conducted searches, we also request any such records prepared in connection with the processing of this request. American Oversight seeks all responsive records regardless of format, medium, or physical characteristics. In conducting your search, please understand the terms “record,” “document,” and “information” in their broadest sense, to include any written, typed, recorded, graphic, printed, or audio material of any kind. We seek records of any kind, including electronic records, audiotapes, videotapes, and photographs, as well as letters, emails, facsimiles, telephone messages, voice mail messages and transcripts, notes, or minutes of any meetings, telephone conversations or discussions. Our request includes any attachments to these records. No category of material should be omitted from search, collection, and production. Please search all records regarding agency business. You may not exclude searches of files or emails in the personal custody of your officials, such as personal email accounts. Records of official business conducted using unofficial systems or stored outside of official files is subject to the Federal Records Act and FOIA.1 It is not adequate to rely on policies and procedures that require officials to move such information to official systems within a certain period of time; American Oversight has a right to records contained in those files even if material has not yet been moved to official systems or if officials have, through negligence or willfulness, failed to meet their obligations.2 In addition, please note that in conducting a “reasonable search” as required by law, you must employ the most up-to-date technologies and tools available, in addition to searches by individual custodians likely to have responsive information. Recent technology may have rendered HUD’s prior FOIA practices unreasonable. In light of the government-wide requirements to manage information electronically by the end of 2016, it is no longer reasonable to rely exclusively on custodian-driven searches. Furthermore, agencies that have adopted the National Archives and Records Agency (NARA) Capstone program, or similar policies, now maintain emails in a form 3 See Competitive Enter. Inst. v. Office of Sci. & Tech. Policy, 827 F.3d 145, 149—50 (D.C. Cir. 2016); cf. Judicial Watch, Inc. v. Kerry, 844 F.3d 952, 955—56 (D.C. Cir. 2016). See Competitive Enter. Inst. v. Office of Sci. & Tech. Policy, No. 14-cv-765, slip op. at 8 (D.D.C. Dec. 12, 2016) (“The Government argues that because the agency had a policy requiring [the official] to forward all of his emails from his [personal] account to his business email, the [personal] account only contains duplicate agency records at best. Therefore, the Government claims that any hypothetical deletion of the [personal account] emails would still leave a copy of those records intact in [the official’s] work email. However, policies are rarely followed to perfection by anyone. At this stage of the case, the Court cannot assume that each and every workrelated email in the [personal] account was duplicated in [the official’s] work email account.” (citations omitted)).

For example, a custodian may have deleted a responsive email from his or her email program, but HUD’s archiving tools would capture that email under Capstone. Accordingly, American Oversight insists that HUD use the most up-to-date technologies to search for responsive information and take steps to ensure that the most complete repositories of information are searched. American Oversight is available to work with you to craft appropriate search terms. However, custodian searches are still required; agencies may not have direct access to files stored in .PST files, outside of network drives, in paper format, or in personal email accounts. Under the FOIA Improvement Act of 2016, agencies must adopt a presumption of disclosure, withholding information “only if . . . disclosure would harm an interest protected by an exemption” or “disclosure is prohibited by law.” If it is your position that any portion of the requested records is exempt from disclosure, American Oversight requests that you provide an index of those documents as required under Vaughn v. Rosen, 484 F.2d 820 (D.C. Cir. 1973), cert. denied, 415 U.S. 977 (1974). As you are aware, a Vaughn index must describe each document claimed as exempt with sufficient specificity “to permit a reasoned judgment as to whether the material is actually exempt under FOIA.” Moreover, the Vaughn index “must describe each document or portion thereof withheld, and for each withholding it must discuss the consequences of disclosing the sought-after information.” Further, “the withholding agency must supply ‘a relatively detailed justification, specifically identifying the reasons why a particular exemption is relevant and correlating those claims with the particular part of a withheld document to which they apply.’” 4 5 6 7 In the event some portions of the requested records are properly exempt from disclosure, please disclose any reasonably segregable non-exempt portions of the requested records. If it is your position that a document contains non-exempt segments, but that those non-exempt segments are so dispersed throughout the document as to make segregation impossible, please state what portion of the document is non-exempt, and how the material is dispersed throughout the document. Claims of nonsegregability must be made with the same degree of detail as required for claims of exemptions in a Vaughn index. If a request is denied in whole, please state specifically that it is not reasonable to segregate portions of the record for release. 8 You should institute a preservation hold on information responsive to this request. American Oversight intends to pursue all legal avenues to enforce its right of access under FOIA, including litigation if necessary. Accordingly, HUD is on notice that litigation is reasonably foreseeable. To ensure that this request is properly construed, that searches are conducted in an adequate but efficient manner, and that extraneous costs are not incurred, American Oversight welcomes an opportunity to discuss its request with you before you undertake your search or incur search or 4 FOIA Improvement Act of 2016 § 2 (Pub.

By working together at the outset, American Oversight and HUD can decrease the likelihood of costly and time-consuming litigation in the future. Where possible, please provide responsive material in electronic format by email or in PDF or TIF format on a USB drive. Please send any responsive material being sent by mail to American Oversight, 1030 15 Street NW, Suite B255, Washington, DC 20005. If it will accelerate release of responsive records to American Oversight, please also provide responsive material on rolling basis. th Fee Waiver Request In accordance with 5 U.S.C. § 552(a)(4)(A)(iii) and 24 C.F.R. § 15.106(k), American Oversight requests a waiver of fees associated with processing this request for records. The subject of this request concerns the operations of the federal government, and the disclosures will likely contribute to a better understanding of relevant government operations and activities by the general public in a significant way. Moreover, the request is primarily and fundamentally for noncommercial purposes. 9 10 Disclosure of the requested records is “likely to contribute significantly to public understanding” of government operations and activities. Housing and community development decisions and activities affect millions of Americans across the country. The records American Oversight seeks are “a direct and clear” reflection of “identifiable operations or activities of the Federal Government,” specifically involvement of an influential individual who is not a government employee in official government travel, deliberations, decision-making, and other official government business, as well as the use or misuse of government resources. Because these nonpublic records reflect potential involvement of the spouse of HUD’s most senior official— whose responsibilities touch the full breadth of HUD’s activities—in official operations and activities, these records will be “meaningfully informative about” those operations or activities. As described in more detail below, American Oversight will use its public website and social media accounts to ensure the disclosed records “contribute to the understanding of a reasonably broad audience of persons interested in” or affected by HUD policies and decisions. In sum, the requested records would provide significant new understanding of key influences on decisionmaking at the most senior level of an agency responsible for assisting millions of American households and investing in communities across the country. 11 12 13 14 15 9 24 C.F.R. § 15.106(k)(1)-(2). 24 C.F.R. § 15.106(k)(3). 24 C.F.R. § 15.106(k)(1)(i).

As a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, American Oversight does not have a commercial purpose and the release of the information requested is not in American Oversight’s financial interest. American Oversight’s mission is to promote transparency in government, to educate the public about government activities, and to ensure the accountability of government officials. American Oversight uses the information gathered, and its analysis of it, to educate the public through reports, press releases, or other media. American Oversight also makes materials it gathers available on its public website and promotes their availability on social media platforms, such as Facebook and Twitter. American Oversight has demonstrated its commitment to the public disclosure of documents and creation of editorial content. For example, after receiving records regarding an ethics waiver received by a senior DOJ attorney, American Oversight promptly posted the records to its website and published an analysis of what the records reflected about DOJ’s process for ethics waivers. As another example, American Oversight’s has a project called “Audit the Wall,” where the organization is gathering and analyzing information and commenting on public releases of information related to the administration’s proposed construction of a barrier along the U.S.Mexico border. 17 18 19 20 Accordingly, American Oversight qualifies for a fee waiver. Conclusion We share a common mission to promote transparency in government. American Oversight looks forward to working with your agency on this request. If you do not understand any part of this request, have any questions, or foresee any problems in fully releasing the requested records, please contact Beth France at foia@americanoversight.org or (202) 869-5246. Also, if American Oversight’s request for a fee waiver is not granted in full, please contact us immediately upon making such a determination. Sincerely, Austin R.

They say we would be off the air before 7:40AM. Before I confirm, is this okay with our schedule? Last I checked it is a ten-minute drive from Fox to CNBC so this would be okay since the CNBC hit time is 8:10AM, but just wanted to make sure everyone else was okay with the change.

They say we would be off the air before 7:40AM. Before I confirm, is this okay with our schedule? Last I checked it is a ten-minute drive from Fox to CNBC so this would be okay since the CNBC hit time is 8:10AM, but just wanted to make sure everyone else was okay with the change.
