Must continue following Task Force Guidelines like social distancing. Brian glimmer more than glimmer. The cdc releasing new guidelines for essential employees taking, for example, their temperature every day. Before clocking in and wearing face masks at all times. This can be very similar to when we start getting back to our buildings and back to our offices around the country. I could see that being very typical as did you go in. Yesterday i thought Something Else stood out. Anthony fauci said i dont think we are ever going to shake hands gotten. I was stunned by that while the model of 100 to 200,000 people dying was scaled back. Looks like 60,000. And well have until august to get there. So if we keep doing this, maybe that number will get even lower, steve. Steve well, that would be great for the number to go lower, brian, what we have learned in the last month or sore is that the social distancing where you dont shake hands and stay away from each other actually works. This is one of the craziest holy weeks ever. Today is holy thursday. Tomorrow is good friday and easter on sunday. The day they think it will actually peak. And our Natural Inclination this time of year, also tonight will be the second night of passover, rahm donramadan shortly. Would are going to be told you cant shake hands anymore because if you want to get to next year, you are going to have to go through this year and social distancing is working. We have got to stay in our homes and stay separate. It is, according to the experts, like jerome adams, the Surgeon General who will be with us this morning says it is working. Dr. Mehmet oz, dr. Nicole saphier. Dr. Marc siegel. The forker secretary of press for the president Sarah Sanders and Jason Chaffetz. Ainsley interesting you say that the peak of deaths is on Easter Sunday. How ironic is that . We cant go to church. We cant shake hands during the peace anymore. Communion might change. Hdr. Fauci seeing glimmers of hope. I know you dont like the word glimmer. Death does lag by a few weeks after you are infected with this virus. If you look at Washington State and look at seattle, they are closing down that makeshift hospital, the army hospital, army corps of engineers built. They are closing that down and disassembling it and send it to another state. They are seeing for four consecutive days they are seeing the numbers go down and think the hospitals can handle it. That is good news. Today the senate is going to discuss another 250 billiondollar bailout aimed at relieving Small Businesses hit really hard during the coronavirus pandemic. Rich edson is live in washington as funds from the first relief package are already running dry. Rich . Hearks good morning, ainsley, steve and brian. Senate Majority Leader Mitch Mcconnell is going to push that additional 250 billion of funding designed for Small Businesses through the senate today. He has tweeted, quote i hope none of of my colleagues object to these requests for urgently needed funds. There is no reason why this bipartisan jobsaving program should be held hostage for other priorities. Lets refund the only program thats already running dry, and keep moving forward together. Now this effort could very well stall. Democrats say they also want more funding for hospitals and state and local governments to address the coronavirus. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi says even if mcconnell can get the republican bill through the senate, there is no way the house could quickly pass it. Bill that they put forth, will not get unanimous support in the house. It just wont. Later this morning, in just a couple of hour, the government will release its weekly support showing how Many Americans filed for Unemployment Insurance last week. Coronavirus shutdowns have set records in unemployment claims. Nearly 10 millioned in the last two weeks leading up to this mornings report, some analysts are projecting this report is going to break last weeks record. Perhaps even breaking 7 million claims one week alone. Back to you guys. Brian 3. 5 rescue. Thanks so much, rich, appreciate it. Bring in kevin brady, he is the ranking members of the house ways and means committee. Sooner or later this quick boost to the Small Business loan program is going to be on his desk and front and center in the house or virtual house. Kevin, thanks for joining us this morning. How do you feel about nancy pelosi looking at what Mitch Mcconnell wants to do and thats getting 250 billion for the Small Business program and putting 100 billion for hospitals, 100 billion for state and local governments and 50 increase in funding for food stamps. Do you sign on to that . Yeah. I will tell you the folks ought to be right now on our Small Businesses more than half of American Workers work in Small Business us. A number of them have closed down temporarily. Have a few more weeks or months to be able to survive. Obviously the need is there or we wouldnt have literally hundreds of thousands of our local businesses seeking those loans. Thats the good news. And the Trump Administration did a remarkable job getting this program up in seven days. But, my belief is politics can wait. Small businesses cant. Certainly not their workers. So the house needs to pick this up as a clean bill. And approve it because what we know is a lot of our Community Banks jumped into this program full feet. But we have in farming communities, in minority communities, womenowned businesses they may not have that local lending relationship. This 251 billion helps make sure that there are is plenty of money for those who may not be in that first tranche, that first rush, but who need our help. So i think its really important. The other fact, too, is we have committed over 300 billion to our hospitals, our state and local governments. Those dollars are going out starting yesterday. State and local governments starting here over the next week or so. So i would say lets see how those work, you know, if it gets to the people we need. If we need to make adjustments and improvements, we will do that frankly, our Small Businesses just cannot wait. Steve no kidding congressman. Congressman, the Washington Post says today that, perhaps, as early as today the Administration May unveil their second Coronavirus Task force. And this one would be a mix of Top Administration officials, perhaps mark meadows as the leader of the task force along with a mix of business leaders. And they would be tasked with trying to figure out how to slowly reopen the economy and i know the president has suggested maybe easter. Thats actually going to be the peak day as we have been saying this morning. It sounds like they still have target of april 30th to still start to un you know, reopen things. Is that realistic . You know, steve, i think it is. Look, right now, businesses are rightfully focused on helping apply maximum pressure on the virus and survival. Thats exactly where they need to be. In the coming weeks, they are turning toward how do you reopen responsibly, recognizing a lot has to do with the conditions on the ground in health. Where their customers are at. What kind of workers and business they are in. But how we exited this crisis is as important as how we entered it from an economic standpoint. I know were putting a lot of money, 2 trillion into helping businesses ride this out. And keep their workers close to them. That puts us in position to rebound. Im encouraging also my local governments to begin to have those discussions with businesses because i think it is, again, key for our economic recovery. Final point, i dont think we are going to flip a switch in the economy just roars back. I think this is going to be a rolling reopening driven by what we are seeing on the ground with our focus on the verizon. So, look, i think there is a right way to do this. No, i think the president is thinking again. Ainsley congressman, i know Mitch Mcconnell wants to push this through using con sent. Use these loans and get this money as soon as possible. Nancy pelosi saying its not going to pass in the house. Why the discrepancy, why doesnt she agree with it . What are democrats saying . What are they against . Im not sure. I know they have talked about more funding for state and local government and hospitals. We are already all in on that. We want to get feedback from our hospitals and local goments on how that money is helping them before we remr. Issue in. I think that can help as well. What i worry about is another delay like she pulled on the cares package where we essentially had this agreed in a bipartisan way on sunday before she rode into town, delayed it fully four days. We could have, our Small Businesses and hospitals and others could have used those dollars. So im hopeful we dont see those same kind of political delays again. Because they are Small Businesses. They need the help. They need that signal from us. Brian right. Absolutely. Senator schumer should get a backbone. Where is he going to stand up and say we need to do this . Well come back on rescue 4 and get some of these programs. Now is not the time. Instead he knuckles under. He has got to look in the mirror and decide what he is doing with his life. Meanwhile, Bernie Sanders made a surprise now. Announcement yesterday i cant win i cant campaign. I will quit but hold on to my delegates. Lets listen to what Bernie Sanders wants from joe biden Going Forward. Today i congratulate joe biden, a very decent man, who i will work with to move our progressive ideas forward. On a practical note, let me also say this i will stay on the ballot in all remains states and continue to gather delegates. While Vice President biden will be the nominee, we must continue working to assemble as many delegates as possible at the Democratic Convention where we will be able to exert significant influence over the Party Platform and other functions. Brian hello socialism. Its not goodbye. Kevin, real quick, last night on Stephen Colbert last night he came out and said joe biden has got to advance, open up a circle. He has got to get more progressives around him. So hello 15 minimum wage. Hello medicare for all and goodbye oil and gas because frac something now banned if he gets his way and has legitimate influence with joe biden. Your thoughts . Bernie sanders may be suspending his campaign but socialist ideas continue to live on. Seem to be embraced more each day by joe biden. Yet, here we are in this coronavirus where u. S. Was one of the best prepared nations in the world to handle this. But, when President Trump realized that we needed a partnership, it was private business that rode to the rescue with the new testing, gearing up the new production, bringing innovation and the solutions to the table. Its been that partnership. If we had been limited just by a one size fits all national government, frankly, we wouldnt have the hope we are starting to see today in our local community. So socialism is being proven not to work as we speak and but joe biden continues to elm brace more and more of it. I will tell you thats not going to go well in texas. Steve all right. Well, joining us from texas today kevin brady. Sir, thank you very much for joining us today. Thank you, steve. Ainsley thank you. Steve you bet. All right.

I have concluded that this battle for the democratic nomination will not be successful. While Vice President biden will be the nominee, we must continue working to assemble as many delegates as possible at the Democratic Convention where we will be able to exert significant influence over the Party Platform. Steve welt, following a string of primary defeats, one time Democratic Frontrunner Bernie Sanders officially dropped out of the president ial race yesterday leaving former Vice President joe biden as the partys presumptive nominee. The selfdescribed democratic socialist vowing, however, to continue gathering delegates, as you just heard, to push its progressive platform at the august convention, whatever form that takes. Joining us right now to discuss is democratic strategist and Bernie SandersSenior Advisor chuck rocca who joins us from his dining room. Chuck, why is he essentially bernie is staying on the ballot so he still kind of running. Most of these states no, all of these states Going Forward we have done all of this work getting someone on the ballot. They have already printed the ballot. He is going to be on the ballot regardless where we suspend the campaign or not. Thats the actuality of it. He is encouraging all of his supporters to show up if we are not in a time corona, mailing your ballot when its not safe to vote. Nobody voting who is going to get sick or mane a chance to get this virus. We want to make sharier our voice is heard at the convention. We have a diverse party. We want every faction of the party to be heard at the convention. Steve sure, there will have to be a truce and they will have to come common ground. Joe biden will never come to medicare for all. He was part of the obama administration. He would prefer fixing obama
