The same thing im seeing in my state, help wanted signs, as people are looking for people to hire and government incentives are making it harder to find workers. The job openings are at a record high. There are eight million jobs available going into april, but only a quarter million people were hired and the Unemployment Rate actually went up. We lost manufacturing, we lost retail, we lost Health Care jobs last month, construction jobs were flat. Ten million people are unemployed right now even though there are eight million job openings. Every senator i talked to says that there are help wanted signs all around their Home State. Nearly every american who wants a job should be able to find one. Yet, its really not happening. You know, the question has been asked and answered on this floor by various members of the republican party, why cant small businesses find workers . Why are so many of these jobs unfilled . Because something like this doesnt just happen on its own. Oh, no. This h

We steadfastly worked day after day for 12 years and it says that you voted for this holiday, now you can vote for the George Floyd Justice in policing act. You can fix the Voting System to give us Voting Rights to protect against those Voter Suppression laws. But the sweeping voting Rights Bill s1, its frozen. While moderate senator Joe Manchin waives the flag of bipartisanship, the fate of his Counter Proposal to federal democrats might be a foregone conclusion. Minority leader Mitch Mcconnell seems more intent on acting like a blockade. Equally unacceptable. Totally inappropriate. All republicans i think will oppose that as well if that were to be surface on the floor. Yet Manchins Counter is gaining traction on the left with voting Rights Advocate Stacey abrams. Shes signaling possible openness to a voter i. D. Requirement. What Senator Man
There have been a lot of images from the rioters. Along with the videos of rioters, one of them has been of Police Officer Eugene Goodman running up a staircase leading rioters away from members of congress. The men and women that he was sworn and assigned to protect. Since then lawmakers have voted to award he and other officers medals for their service. And Tonight Officer Goodman was given this honor as well. He threw out the ceremonial first pitch at tonights washington national Baseball Game against the new york mets. I hear its really hard to do that. The news continues. Lets hand it over to Michael Smerconish in for chris. How cool is that image . I am Michael Smerconish in for chris cuomo, and welcome to prime time. And also the first official juneteenth federal holiday in our nations history. Complete with its own flag hoisted in places like wisconsin today. The single White Star Symbolizing Texas where the last enslaved people in this country were told they were free and the
