Election day a holiday, expand early Voting And Ban partisan gerrymandering. Senate Majority Leader Chuck schumer is working to get Joe Manchin to back the legislation in its current form or revoice it in a way that all sides of the Democratic Party see palatable. Perhaps the most attainable changes could come in the form of infrastructure. President Joe Biden expected to invite members of the legislature to the White House this discuss this week. Jessica, good morning. Shum confident he can get Manchin On Board or the others on board with the Manchin Plan . What are you seeing. At this point, the best Case Scenario for Democrats Tomorrow is that all 50 Democrats Vote to advance the discussion on this bill. Thats the best they can hope for. Theres just very, very, very, very, little chance any republican is going to support this. In this case, all indications are that no republicans will be supporting this. And of course those 50 votes will fall well short of the 60 votes needed to con

Pharmacies open 24 hours a day, Uber And Lyft providing free transportation to folks wanting to get vaccinated. Child care, if you need child care, the president saying places are providing free child care. So a ground and local game across this country, trying to get as many folks vaccinated as possible, reaching that 70 number by the month of july. One shot in the arm of americans. So as we think about that, and the covid response when it comes to the biden administration, the president facing another major uphill battle, and we are just minutes away from a rare meeting at the White House, and potentially a Make Or Break moment for a bipartisan deal on infrastructure. The president will sit down with a prominent member of the opposing party, even if some top biden advisers move, its still a High Stakes move. Not even the Vice President will be there. Both sides say they want a deal, but privately theyre still far apart. Not only on how to pay for it, but even the very definition of w
This honorable court. We will hear the argument this morning in case 2512, the national collegiate athletic legislation versus the austin and the consolidated case. Good morning, mr. Chief justice, and may it please the court. For more than 100 years, the distinct character of college sports has been that it is played by students who are amateurs, which is to say that they are not paid for their play.

First, they defined their own much narrower conception of amateurism to mean only that athletes not be paid unlimited amounts unrelated to education. They then imposed a regime that permits athletes to be paid thousands of dollars each year just for playing on a
