Southern senators in the sixties who defended states rights. This vote, im ashamed to say, is further evidence that Voter Suppression has become part of the official platform of the republican party. In an unusual move, Vice President harris presided over the senate during tonights vote afterward chief vowed democrats will continue pushing for federal Voting Rights legislation. When were talking about the right to vote, it is not a republican concern or a democratic concern it isnt an american concern. This is about the american peoples right to vote. Unfettered. It is about their access to the right to vote in a meaningful way, because nobody is debating i dont believe, whether all americans have the right to vote. The bottom line is that the president and i are very clear to support as one, to support the john lewis Voting Rights act and the fight is not over. Since january of this year, just since january at least 14 states have a net did 22 new laws that restrict access to voting.

effects. this is the first time america got to see the focus on adults and what has been partic particularly for military members. i actually agree with what you just strode. the congressman is a decorated combat surgeon himself. i spoke to him about this this morning. i think his point that it was not an emphasis on education but rather indoctrination is absolutely true. i think doctors were cut out of the equation. we did not have this conversation in the doctor s office is much as we needed to. what are the risks of the vaccine. what are you hoping to do here? we didn t have the vaccine and our office. in july of 21, we already saw spread from people who had been vaccinated, a famous event in provincetown, and this will continue with the delta variance where you could actually get covid despite the vaccine. that took a lot of the wind out of the mandates sails. if you are saying that the military has to be vaccinated to
global phenomenon of the inflation, but i think that this president has been focused on having the back of working families every single day of his career and certainly every single day of his presidency i don t disagree with what you said. all i m saying is that i think the weakest defense is the omicron and delta variance. because we were in the middle of a global pandemic that was unpredictable. pandemics are unpredictable, and the economy was suffering, that s all i m asking, should this have been, could you have looked at options in case things got worse instead of thinking that things got better, that s all i m saying, i understand your argument, i take you to wear it and i do think that the american rescue plan did help. so i agree with that, i thank you for coming, yang thank you i appreciate. thank you, don thank you for having us, appreciate it. now climate, change in extreme hot weather may make this the summer of blackouts and electric grid shutdowns, so why our power
