And as masks return to the house which is it? vaccines or masks? do the vaccines work or they don t work. Republicans lose it over the new restrictions and the minority leader attacks the science. Leader mccarthy says it s against the science. When all in starts right now. Good evening from new york. I m chris hayes. First off the bat, some breaking news. There appears to be a deal, a big bipartisan infrastructure deal, believe it or not. A few hours ago a group of 21 senators announced it. It came a bit as surprise. Earlier this week it seemed like the deal was likely dead. It appears that s no longer the case. The huge $1. 2 trillion deal appears to be happening.

Nearly every state in the union reports an uptick in cases due in part to the highly contagious delta variant, and the high rate of unvaccinated americans.
