over 100 million vaccines delivered so far. we are at a critical time. stunning images of crowds flocking for spring break. the other surge raising major concerns this morning is the growing crisis at the u.s. mexico border. right now, more than 4,000 unaccompanied migrant children, that s children without their parents are in border patrol custody. we are following all these headlines, first, cnn jeremy dimons is at the white house with more on the cross-country tour touting his relief package, it s interesting during trump presidency, we talk about campaign-style presidents. i wonder if you see this at a campaign event? reporter: from is no question president biden and vice president harris are talking about the american rescue plan. that coronavirus relief package you signed in law last week. a part is political. it s about preparing for the mid-terms. every democrat up and down the ticket will be running on this plan. particularly throws members of congress and senators
