security officers or how many police officers were on site and was that adequate? we learned yesterday from hp there were 125 hpd officers and 555 security officer. we're learning from concert-goers describing what they were experiencing during this conference. some saying it was difficult to both. i just talked to one concert goer who said that he actually was concerned starting at about 4:00 p.m., very early on in the day, because he was closer to the stable. he said that the crowd was very ride, that people were being rude and jumping. he actually moved away. here's what he said. take a listen. >> if i didn't see the first performance and see how crazy it could get, maybe we would have attempted to get closer to stage. especially kids who want to get close and report performance and just be closer to the performer. i can see why they want to get as close as portion but for that same reason we found a good space, a good location to watch the show. although it wasn't, you know, that close where we can see clearly it was, you know, perfect for us to feel comfortable in and enjoy the show. >> now he said that moving away probably saved his and his brother's life, so he's counting his blessings today. travis scott sending out a video message yesterday for the first time saying that he is devastated. take a listen. >> any time i can make out, you know, anything that's going on, you know, i stopped the show and, you know, helped them get the help that they need, you know. i could just never imagine the severity of the situation. >> i talked to multiple concert-goers yesterday who told me they heard multiple times where travis scott stopped his performance and pointed to areas of the crowd where people needed help and then, of course, now we know that the concert was ended, according to police about a 10:10. the concert goer there i just talked to today looked at his watch and it was 10:13 or 10:14 when that concert was stopped and the last bit of new information that i want to leave you with is now we have two individuals who have been identified who are among the eight dead. franco pettino, 21 years of age and another one 27 years of age. fred? >> so sad and tragic. rosa flores, thank you so much. all right. now that the u.s. congress has passed. congress -- president biden's $1 trillion infrastructure bill the focus turns to the other half of his economic agenda, the $1.75 trillion social spending and climate bill. the administration had hoped to pass a legislation together, but the timeline for the larger bull has been delayed as moderates in the house demand more information on the bill's costs. for more from the white house now let's bring in arlette saenz, arlette, it may take a week or two, right, to get the cbo score for this spending bill so what is the white house planning to do in the meantime? >> well, fred, the white house officials have said they are hoping to build off the momentum of passing that bipartisan infrastructure pill to also get that larger social safety net package across the finish line. now one key issue that the moderate senators are waiting for is that non-partisan analysis from the congressional budget office which will reveal how much of this plan is paid forch the white house and top democrats vin sifted that what has been put forth is fully paid for, but moderates want to make sure that they get that non-partisan analysis first. now, even if those moderates then stick to their plan and pass this through the house, the bill still needs to make its way over to the senate where people like senator joe manchin have expressed their desire to change elements of this bill. house speaker nancy please put back paid family leave into that bill after it was initially not included and that's something that manchin said he's opposed to including in this measure. take a listen to white house chief of staff ron klain talking about their belief, that yes, there will be changes but ultimately they do believe that the larger package will get passed. >> i think this bill will pass the house when the house comes back. i'm sure the senate will make changes. that's the way the legislative process works, but we're going to get a very strong version of this bill through the house, through the is not and to the president's desk and into law. >> now as for that bipartisan infrastructure proposal, president biden will be traveling to baltimore on wednesday to promote this newly passed deal. he'll be visiting a port and be talking about supply chain issues as well. he is also expected to soon host a signing ceremony here at the white house welcoming both republicans and democrats who work together on this bill as he officially signs it into law, but while they are taking that victory lap on that bipartisan infrastructure proposal we still have a long road ahead when it comes to the larger spending bill that they are hoping to get passed. fred. >> arlette saenz from the white house, thanks so much for that. let's talk more about the road ahead. with me now is democratic congresswoman kim schreyer of washington state. congresswoman, so good to see you. >> so good to see you. >> so you voted for this infrastructure bill. what will this mean for your constituents and how soon? >> oak my goodness, well, this is tremendous. i feel like this is an accomplishment that we should be running victory laps on over and over. you know, this is the biggest infrastructure bill in a generation and this is something that we tried several times under the last administration to get it done, couldn't get it done and here government worked and now we have a bill that will do road and bridges but then also really thinks forward to resilient infrastructure with a changing climate to a modernized electric grid, electric vehicle charging stations and -- and rolling out high speed internet everywhere. it's a big deal. >> so how soon do you see things actually happening? i mean, cedric richmond said earlier today on one of the morning programs that maybe, you know, shovels will be in the dirt in two months for some of the projects, but then many of the others will be some time. it may take months if not years for some other projects. what do you anticipate? >> look, some of these projects will happen right away. i have a bill that was included called legacy roads and trails, for example, and this is a bill that decommissions old crumbling infrastructure in our national forests and then allows for new culverts, preservation of waterways. these are things that immediately can have local work done that will enhance our water quality habitat and public lands, and they are ready to go. as soon as the money is here, they are on it 2z and this really is just the first part of, you know, biden's agenda. this was kind of a two-part -- two-piece package, you know, six of your democratic colleagues were not on board with infrastructure, so what are your concerns and hopes as negotiations continue for the part two of biden's big agenda. >> we will get it done. this is such an important bill, and i can tell you, fredericka, as a pediatrician and a member of congress and a mom, thinking about what this bill will mean, when we talk about universal pre-school and how that will impact the ability of parents, moms in particular, to get back to work, affordable child care, a big tax break for working families, you know, when i look at this through the mind of a pediatrician, i mean, these are just wins across the board, and i am so excited. >> so congresswoman, you are a pediatrician as you help remind us. let me ask you a bit about covid and what's on the horizon now that children age 5 to 11 can get the vaccine. what kind of an impact do you think it's going to make overall on what we've all been experiencing with this pandemic. 2z it's going to make a tremendous difference overall and i'll tell you why. children make up about 25% of our population and so you really can't get close to herd immunity without immunizing children. it makes a difference for them and their safety. we know that over 680 children in this country have died from covid, and we will not know the full impact of things like long covid for months or years to come, and so assuring our children's safety is paramount in addition to what that means for our community safety. there will be less spread of disease and very specifically, you know, kids who are immunized, they can go back to indoor sports. they can go back to indoor band. they know that if somebody in their classroom gets covid, they don't have to go home and quarantine for ten days nor do their parents need to miss ten days of work for that. that's a really big deal, and it gets us that much closer to true, true normal. >> and then still with all that information, that still might not be a big enough sell for some family, so what do you tell the parents who remain hesitant even after hearing all you have to say but still have their reservations and perhaps they are thinking largely about any potential side effects from the vaccine. what do you say? >> well, you know, this is a pediatrician's bread and butter. it just happens that we have these discussions every day in the clinic. no parent wants to do the wrong thing so sometimes it seems like doing nothing at all is a way to avoid doing the wrong thing. you know, unfortunately, with covid and particularly the delta variant, this is such a contagious disease that you're really making a choice. either you're choosing the vaccine or you're choosing the illness and i'll tell you hands down the vaccine is safe, highly effective. the virus, we're still learning about it, but it's definitely not safe and can result in some real long-term damage so i would say bottom line. you trust your own child's pediatrician. your pediatrician has helped you for the past 5 to 11 years and you trust them. go have the conversation with your open doctor who you trust and who you know will look out for you and your children. >> and still on the overall issue of covid vaccines, a federal appeals court has temporarily halted president biden's vaccine mandate for big businesses. are you confident his mandate will stand ultimately? >> i would just like to normalize the whole concept of requiring vaccines to be safe in a workplace. i would, you know, kind of nestle that in. children are required to have a whole bunch of vaccines to go to school including against things like chicken pox and measles, both of which at this moment are far less of a danger than covid. i as a doctor am required to have a whole bunch of advantages owns to be able to work safely and take care of patients without putting them at risk, including getting a flu vaccine every year. our military gets vaccinated and so, you know, it's really -- it is the government's job to keep its nation safe, and i think that that is the context that i would look at requiring vaccines to keep all of us safe. >> congresswoman kim schrier, thanks for being with us today. >> thanks, fredericka. officials at the mexican border are preparing for an increase in wait time and international travelers are once again allowed to enter the u.s. we're live at the border next. ♪ there are beautiful ideas that remain in the dark. but with our new multi-cloud experience, you have the flexibility you need to unveil them to the world. ♪ there's a different way to treat hiv. it's once-monthly injectable cabenuva. cabenuva is the only once-a-month, complete hiv treatment for adults who are undetectable. cabenuva helps keep me undetectable. it's two injections, given by a healthcare provider once a month. hiv pills aren't on my mind. i love being able to pick up and go. don't receive cabenuva if you're allergic to its ingredients or taking certain medicines, which may interact with cabenuva. serious side effects include allergic reactions post-injection reactions, liver problems,...and depression. if you have a rash and other allergic reaction symptoms, stop cabenuva and get medical help right away. tell your doctor if you have liver problems or mental health concerns, and if you are pregnant, breastfeeding, or considering pregnancy. some of the most common side effects include injection site reactions, fever, and tiredness. if you switch to cabenuva, attend all treatment appointments. with once-a-month cabenuva, i'm good to go. ask your doctor about once-monthly cabenuva. my retirement plan with voya keeps me moving forward... even after paying for this. love you, sweetheart they guide me with achievable steps that give me confidence. this is my granddaughter...she's cute like her grandpa. voya doesn't just help me get to retirement... ...they're with me all the way through it. come on, grandpa! later. got grandpa things to do. aw, grandpas are the best! well planned. well invested. well protected. voya. be confident to and through retirement.

>> yes, absolutely. >> 100%. >> he knows that. >> and there's one key issue all four of these women say played a huge part in their choosing a republican, feeling heard about their child's education. they spent months fighting to gets kids back into school and now they want more done to make up for learning loss from the pandemic. >> the school closures were really hard for a lot of kids, and one of my kids in particular real suffered when schools were closed. >> it affected my family dynamic. it affected my social circumstance many and affected every part of me that the kids couldn't go to school so i had to figure out what can i do to make sure that that never happens again. >> reporter: and you feel like right now not enough is being done to address their learning loss and you view that as a crisis in. >> our kids are this crisis. the learning loss is real, so we're in a situation where our kids are really far behind, and they need a lot of help. they need a lot of additional tutoring and need a lot of additional time after school to help catch them up and they are still not focusing on that. it's like a situation where you're in front of your house and the driveway is real dirty but the house is also on fire and you're using the hose to hose off the driveway instead of putting it on the fire. how much did that affect you, the crt? >> definitely the education and learning loss was number one for me. >> mandates and crt did not influence my decision at all. >> reporter: how about you? >> no, mine was all about the school closures. >> reporter: had you did terry mcauliffe handle the education part of everything? >> well, parents were very angry during school closures at the teachers unions, and -- and for me the nail in the coffin was on his last day of campaigning he brought the head of the teacher's union to her rally and she spoke and it's like someone just poked me in the eye and said you think you want to have a say in your education, well, we're not going to. >> glenn, he listened to us. he met with us. he sent his wife to meet with special education parents. he spent a lot of one-on-one time with parents. >> reporter: do you think that's why glenn youngkin won virginia because he made education such a centerpiece of his campaign? >> i do. he -- we felt this for the first time or i did. if terry mcauliffe had made it more of a centerpiece, made listening to parents or listening to their concerns, made that more half center piece of his campaign, would you have may have voted for him instead or were there other concerns that you had? >> he seemed very sort of dismissive of the general voting public. >> terry seemed to be campaigning everywhere but virginia. >> show up for democracy, for virginia. >> reporter: they say they were also off put by former president obama when he came to virginia to campaign for mcauliffe and called education issues, quote, phoebe trumped up culture wars. offensive in what way? >> i feel like they are really tone deaf and real dismissive and kind of blanket statements. >> reminded us of the school boards. >> they weren't looking at the concerns on the ground. the concerns on the ground is we were really concerned about our kids' education and the democrats were not listening to that. >> reporter: what about like in washington with the democrats' agenda and the back and forth and the two bills not being passed? did that have anything -- any sway at all on you? >> no. >> no. >> no. >> another problem in their view, the trump factor. >> we wanted to move on from -- from the trump administration. >> i felt like he was really tone deaf to just discount parents and the whole educational struggle and to, you know, make it about trump all of the time. there's a place for that, but he never really talked about what he was going to do to improve things. he just talked about how bad everyone else was, and that was a real turnoff, especially leaving your kids in the dust. >> reporter: but they admit had trump stumped in virginia for youngkin, that would have been a problem. >> i told him if you bring donald trump over into virginia, i'm not helping you. >> reporter: and they say they believe the way once biden-supporting suburban moms helped propel glenn youngkin into an unlikely victory in virginia could happen again across the country for the 2020 mid terms if parents continue to feel ignored about their kids' education. what do you think the message is to democrats from the election results in virginia? >> you're going to keep losing if you don't pay attention to parents. >> they neglected us and our kids and ignored the parents. >> reporter: so they will have to re-earn your trust? >> absolutely. >> reporter: that's going to take a while. >> going to take a long time. >> thanks so much to our pamela brown for that are reporting. for democrats this has been had a long hard look in the mirror over the last week, asking what went wrong in virginia and what can be learned in going forward. former democratic congressman joe kennedy joining me now from boston. congressman, so good to see you. so what do you see as you reflect on what happened dues, particularly as it pertains to virginia. do you think democrats need to really think hard about how they earned the trust of voters? >> fred, if you're not thinking about that as somebody seeking to win an election you're not thinking about the right things, like that's fundamentally what that is all b.obviously the feedback from those four moms that you just highlighted is critically important, and the fact that the democrats had thought that they were messaging and hearing and representing those concerns and obviously from their perspective they weren't, and so fundamentally there has to be a re-calibration there. i think there's two other big pieces to this. >> what? >> also that one, and they detailed this in the last little bit of this segment. one of the biggest losers potentially that night was actually president trump because you heard even in virginia them say that if he had been more of a central figure there, that would have repelled them so you've got this very interesting question for the republican party knowing, hey, there's a base here that still has a strong affiliation or strong tie, emotional tie with the former president. if he gets too involved there, they are going to get -- they are going to get repelled so how do you strike that balance? how does he strike that balance for somebody for somebody that hasn't been attuned to striking balance. >> what's the second thing? >> second thing democrats have to play a lot more attention in suburban and rural areas, just have to, and that isn't just a question of trying to look at turnout models and wonder whether suburban moms will go this way or that way. you have to -- if you're going to be a party that says that we care about everywhere and show up everywhere you actually have to do that. you have to spend more time listening in communities that you actually had a presence in. where those communities feel like you haven't done your best to earn that vote and that was a clarion call from the results that we've seen across virginia. >> yeah, that latter point you made is similar to a point that even virginia senator mark warner had to say while trying to reflect on what happened. listen. >> i think if we could have been talking about that win and showing the kind of job creation that actually has been taking place, things might have been different. >> different in that you think terry mcauliffe could have pulled off a win? >> absolutely, absolutely. i mean, this was a -- the voters of virginia and the voters of america gave us the presidency, the senate and the house. they expected us to produce. >> so a couple of points that he made there. there he was talking about how important it would have been for congress to have moved faster on at least, you know, part of that legislation, that first part of the two-part legislation that biden, you know, is counting on. passing that legislation ahead of that tuesday vote may have helped and then, of course, canvassing, democrats canvassing more rural and suburban areas as opposed to concentrating so much on the more metropolitan areas. do you believe that passing legislation sooner would have made a difference in virginia? it wouldn't have been something that turned things, you look at the four moms that you look at. democrats had a lot to point to when the year actually closes. hundreds of people across this country have cut the child poverty rate in half amongst myriad other accomplishments and it's the largest infrastructure bill in a generation, largest reconciliation package that i do expect will go through, a huge boofrt to our supply chains and industrial policy as well to counter some of the challenges and threats we see from china, which has already passed the senate i think with 70 votes. there's an enormous amount of accomplishments that this administration will be able to point to, but what you also heard from those four individuals is saying, hey, that might be true but i'm not hearing it with regards to the policies that impact me every day and there's nothing more basic from a dad with two young kids than what is my kid doing today? how am i caring for him hand how can i get to work, and if you don't have those problems solved, nothing else matters, and what this is a strong clarion call for is tout those accomplishments and translate them down to a community so they understand that those accomplishments come from their voice and their concerns and you can't do that if you're not showing up in places and knocking on your doors saying what's on your mind and how can we help? we've got to do more that have. >> congressman joe kennedy, thanks so much for being with us today. be well. >> still ahead, the future of joshua halsey in north carolina. a life taken by racial violence more than 120 years ago. symptoms, get your zzz's...ab nr and get back to your rhythm. feel the power. beat the symptoms fast. for people who could use a lift new neutrogena® rapid firming. a triple-lift serum with pure collagen. 92% saw visibly firmer skin in just 4 weeks. neutrogena® for people with skin. people everywhere living with type 2 diabetes are waking up to what's possible with rybelsus®. ♪ you are my sunshine ♪ ♪ my only sunshine... ♪ rybelsus® works differently than any other diabetes pill to lower blood sugar in all 3 of these ways... increases insulin when you need it... decreases sugar... and slows food. the majority of people taking rybelsus® lowered their blood sugar and reached an a1c of less than 7. people taking rybelsus® lost up to 8 pounds. rybelsus® isn't for peopl with type 1 diabetes. don't take rybelsus® if you or your family ever had medullary thyroid cancer, or have multiple endocrin neoplasia syndrome type 2 or if allergic to it. stop rybelsus® and get medical help right away if you get a lump or swelling in your neck, severe stomach pain, or an allergic reaction. serious side effects may include pancreatitis. tell your provider about vision problems or changes taking rybelsus® with a sulfonylurea or insulin increases low blood sugar risk. side effects like nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea may lead to dehydration, which may worsen kidney problems. wake up to what's possibl with rybelsus®. ♪ please don't take my sunshine away ♪ you may pay as little as $10 per prescription. ask your healthcare provider about rybelsus® today.

>> yeah. >> and that was scary for you? >> yeah. >> joining us right now is the host of "this is life," lisa ling with us now. i mean, to have her account, i mean, miss juanita, that is just so this memory is really kind of etched, you know, for so many. and it has helped to shape a lot of chicago today. >> that's right, fredricka. it was so eerie to hear her recount those details. and it was still so present and graphic for her. these days when we hear or read anything about chicago, often we hear about the violence. and it's easy to dismiss it as gang-on-gang crime. but you can literally draw a line from something that happened on a hot summer day in 1919 to what's happening today. and on that hot summer day, a young man was killed after getting hit by a rock, and his death ignited this multiday race riot that miss juanita recalls so vividly in which 38 people were killed, hundreds were injured. and in the aftermath of that riot, these lines were drawn, and those lines still exist in chicago today. and these are lines that prohibit and have for a hundred years black people from living in certain parts of town. it also has prevented them from being able to move into different parts of town. and they've been part of the move to house black people in housing projects, and then eventually those housing projects were destroyed, and so many people have been displaced. thousands of residents of chicago have been relocated to neighborhoods that may have had existing tensions or just neighborhoods they've been unfamiliar with. and this, like, systematic effort to prevent the free movement of black people into many communities still exists today. >> wow. so many different circumstances, but at the same time you say there are correlations when you talk to people who make those correlations, you spoke to a number of people who live on the south side including gang members and public housing residents. what are they telling you about their experiences and perspectives and what commonalities there are? >> well, they do draw those lines. i mean, after that horrific race riot, you might think that things, that there would be more of a move to integrate communities. but that's not what happened. it's fair to say that every family in the south side of chicago has been affected by the violence. i mean, it is a community that is literally living in fear every day, living in trauma and fear. the streets, so many of the streets down in that part of town are just lined with funeral homes and liquor stores. and there are so few, if any, safe places for young people to recreate. it's no exaggeration to say that danger literally lurks everywhere. they're just incredibly devastating stories. >> lisa ling, thank you so much for bringing us a look at reality in chicago today and with reference of hundred years ago. we'll be watching tonight. be sure to tune into an all-new episode of "this is life" with lisa ling. airs tonight at 10:00 p.m. only on cnn. and thank you so much for joining me today. i'm fredricka whitfield. the "cnn newsroom" continues with jim acosta right after this. but first in this week's "mission ahead," a first-of-its-kind treatment. goggles that helped a blind man see after 40 years. ♪ >> these goggles helped a blind man see for first time in decades.
