With all the chieftain. Where does this right? Is this the crowning achievement when any on making any comparison is? I know we're down here and experience with this group arises. Every year is amazing and his team is world champions forever. You can't take it away from myself, Tom Brady and the tenth obeyed bucket is dominate the Kansas City, chafes winning the franchise. A second Superbowl title and these seven a break. He's legendary career good morning and welcome to morning Joe, it is Monday February eight with us. We have wider. Rapporteur for the Associated Press jive than the mere hosts of Emma This is politics nation and president. National Action network. Reverend now sharpen joins us this morning also have co founder of hunch Ball NEWS Palmer with us and senior columnist for the daily beast Matt Louis.

Finds us and unjust. I'm just gonna get my purse out start winning at zero. Here even got Lodestar Jonathan Wellmere. You grew up with this guy in New England, I'm sure I'll. Even you, have imagined how easily he could have one last night's game against what was wide. Believed to be the best seamen, professional football, Joe Tom, very pretty the greatest of all time, he proved it again. Last night I was picking the bucks to win, but I thought it would be a very close game. I was stunned by how lopsided it was first wallets give credit to tap as defence they dominated patch me. Homes was a wonderful player, that's a fantastic orphans in Kansas City. But the Tampa defense was spectacular. I know there are some calls. The officiating was a little suspect early, but that didn't matter this was a only one sided game and Tom Brady. At this point. No other friends

Size has more than six championships more than six. You were born Brady a player has said has no more rival in sport. Joe, the conversation is about Joe Montana WAR, Peyton Manning Origin, El Way or any other of your favorite quarterbacks, that's not Tom Brady Your group anymore Tom Parities Peer group, is Michael Jordan. Gretzky but I ve Serena Williams, Tiger Woods. People like that the Willie Mays is the Babe Ruth. That's what Grady is he did it again. Cited aged forty three, his first, within my here. Just a spectacular night, spectacular, no spectacular story and he made clear Joe he's not done you play on coming back again. Steer- and I wouldn't bet against gonna get well gotta go away. Don't agree without another year in and I actually the correction with you is that, even if you go ahead,

sports. There really aren't comparisons. You gotta have a debate and I hear it every few days between Jelly Scarborough somebody else about whether my Jordan or magic or bird are, of course, Lobata. Leubronn are the greatest of all time, and then you go in baseball and that's a debate they could go on and on better reverent? Now, when you talk professional football in quarterbacks, there's just no Harrison anymore, he really is and the league of his own. Any: aren't you have to give them that not a great football fan, I watched the Superbowl less, my participation would football, but extremely amazed to see

lopsided. This game was last night. All of my football fan, friends with saying whoever now watch it is going to be closed, is going to be down to one play and that one play was a fantasy. This man dominated all night, he earned his place and I give him credit that he is the greatest of all time in football. Quarterback There is no question about right back into this super volley, their rights it yet outwits not like they played a bad team. They played the best team in professional football against the best quarterback in professional football against a guy who, who has many great years ahead of him and Patrick my hounds, but this making this really was. It was an extraordinary. Evening for Tom Brady and this the team in September October or November or seven and five, and that's why, at the beginning of the playoffs,

when I asked Jelly Scarborough Kazanovitch following Gonna, fell that much this year I said who's gonna win the Superbowl. He said the buccaneers I said you're out of your mind, come on come on. You love Brady, a little too much whose. When the super everybody said, the patriots gonna win this rebel and a mere, I swear. He said it and he was right. He was inlets, think about the path Brady too, here. This was his first born and organisation. They couldn't have any offices and work out because of of covert limited practice time. He goes. The estimates, entirely new system, and then the playoffs defeats drew breeze, Aaron, Rodgers and now Patrick MA homes? And look yes, of course It pains me not to see him in a patriot, uniform, there's a part of me. There were sad to see. Rob broadcast discouraged stands for Tampa last night and

New England. He was wonderful to wrong, but more than that, this is an extraordinary accomplishment for both of those men, but particularly Brady, seven suitable, as we will ever see anything like this again here so far, ahead of any other quarterback who's ever played in the super lawyer. It's Tom Brady as everybody else, Their milk is hoping to see anything like this again. Zinni thinks its second tier of that, and also, I think your sons will never watch football with me again because I'm just like I'm having philosophical discussions about whether footballers hey spore than blah blah blah blah blah, so they just sent me too bad. Alright, let's move! to the news, the second impeachment trial, a former President Donald Trump, gets under way tomorrow. How? Some page meant managers are planning a fast pace, heavy video, heavy video, happy presentation,

raining the reigniting the outrage lawmakers felt after last month's deadly capital riot. They and to show a lot of video, the Washington Post reports that in addition to using new video evidence to create emotionally charged impeachment trial, house managers want two percent wit. His testimony and updated details about injured officers to make Republicans uncomfortable voting to put the president s most have indicated they will do the impeachment managers also plan to present fresh evidence that reveal what trump new in advance of the January sixth rampage at the capital, as well as His words and actions influenced those who participated, labour continues. The managers are determined to present as much evidence as senators. Allow too, sure a permanent record of trumps role in the riots, but some republican

Senators we're on the Sunday shows voicing their disapproval of both. Substance and the process of the impeachment proceedings. We're going to criminalize speech and somehow peach everybody you says, oh find to hear your voice is heard, and we really we oughta these Chuck Schuman, empty, went to the spring or student in Gore and specifically Hank or such a cow now given still whirlwind and you're gonna the price you all know, why can't you, if you continue with these all decisions, so people when and how present draw accountable for language there has you consistent standard into my line of partisan forest is you're not doing anything to judge humor. Not do it waiting to representative are not doing anything to Maxie Mars. This way the house today, incredibly poor job of building a k, before their impeachment vote, if the president wasn't there, he wasn't it

council. They didn't amass evidence in five hours. They kind of judged and boom he's impeached. Now hold that under the Watergate under the Clinton impeachment, truckloads of information. Here it was a video. There was no process. I mean it's almost like you know that happened in the Soviet Union. You would have called it a show trial. I think I'm ready to move on I'm ready to end the impeachment because I think is what lately institutional, I'm ready to get our trying to solve the nations problems. Well, Natalia first of all ran Paul? I know you'll be shocked by this, but rainfall of course misrepresented. What have I didn't tell the whole story. Half truth, of course, is a full lie. When he got quotes from tumor on what he said.

We were very critical of chalk chamber on this show when he said that the next day Chuck tumor, apologized and said I shouldn't have said what I said: The words came out of my mouth wrong. Still, no apologies from ran Paul for inciting riots. With his with his words, his lie? Still. No apologies from Donald Trump Foreign halting riots were there lie still. No apologies from TED Cruiser are, of course now. Apologies from Josh Holly for their words and their vote set inside it, I did riots and there lies the big lie that led to the death of cops ran all still, never apologize for spreading a conspiracy theory that led to the cops dollars. Rushing am killing cops. He's got that on his record. He's responsible rainfall is for the death of that got, but he'll never Paul. Guys for that, nor will Lindsey Gram broadcast.

They said it's a show, trial, bill body. This way at work, to vote to compete in the house. Second, charging document: No you're, not a lawyer, but the trial takes place in the sun. So if you in Tommy tolerable can get your arms around some of the basic facts of this process. Maybe you'll be better prepared when it begins. Finally, Linsey Gram: you just move along forget everything that happened here. Lindsey wants you to forget that Donald Trump and people supporting Donald Trump attached to Donald Trump spent a lot of money, putting together a rally That would lead to a riot Donald Trump, except is it really wanted to leave? did. The riot said there were people said, go up and wide. Why Donald Trump set I'll be there with you.

Really. Truly. I talked about combat justice. Junior said something along the lines that were coming, get or coming to get. You were coming for you and it's gonna be fine. And so this is what Linsey Grand wants you to forget. This is what Josh Holly wants you to forget this. This is what Donald Trump wants you to forget. They want you to forget That these maggot terrorists, being a cop, did that they want you to forget. These trump supporters are cop killers. They want you to forget that these tromp supporters beat a cop with an american flag. They want you to get all of that and just say it's time. Move along. Well, you know what,

that Louis Alot of Americans aren't ready to move along Conservatives true, conservative, not well names as defined by been Sassou last week, said conspiracy theories are not conservative Sir said lying about presidential outcomes and elections? Not conservative, putting your politics and power politics, it gets your faith in Jesus Christ. Not concern british conservatives slight been sassin. I think you and me are ready to just let this go. We actually think there needs to be account quality, because if terrorists storm the heart of and democracy to stop a constitutional count. What would we be

We just turned a blind eye like Linsey Grand wants us to just turn a blind eye to this rioting and this cop killing nets. Rachel. Look I mean: part of being a conservative is about conserving. Liberal democracy and I dont know if you can do that if you're allowing people who want to overthrow elections to do so with impunity and what kind of message does that sound, not just to doubt tromp but to the next guy that the next president so I think that if you care about preserving this miracle, I think that what we have this american democracy is precious, I believe it is fragile

conservatives used to believe that and if we allow attempts to overthrow elections to intimidate people too, written this particular who we just have to keep reminding everyone, I'm sure it will be, and the Democrats impeachment presentation, but this could have ended up alive. Worse than it dad. You know we could have ended up with my pants even potentially killed. If we allow that sort of lawlessness and intimidation to influence our elections and to be punished for there to be nobody held accountable. Then I think fighting more in the future. That's that's no way to keep together a fragile democracy

yeah and, let me just say: conservative still believe that there have to be consequences to axe inside this. If you're a terrorist and you committed terrorist act, new get caught. And you get sent to jail doesn't matter whether you're an islamic terrorists doesn't matter whether you're a trump terrorist there has. We just as for you. So now we are not real. Conservatives are not ready to turn a blind eye to what happened on January. Lindsey Grammy Lindsey, Graham, and these other people ran Paul their members. Now of a personality cult they're, not conservatives, you look at their votes over the past four years: they're, not conservative, biggest budget deficits ever biggest federal debt growth ever supporting a president who was just shredding constitutional safeguards. That's that's not conservatism,

That's a personality call so on bomber. Tell me what does this week look like? What is your reporting showing you? Is this gonna just be a repeat of the first impeachment are actually, a few republicans are I've going to set, will taken the evidence. I've tried to figure out what is best for the United States Constitution and for this government and then vote I mean this is going to be really. I shall write. It is important to be dying and you later all the reasons why the Senate needs to take this, but we don't expect that there is going to be unless there's some real He very revealing new testimony that you're going to see seventeen the Republicans vote in pieces. I do think things that until noon are watching this minority, persuadable movements, School, Mitt Romney will mister Mc Caskey Susan Collins already. You goin to hear this trial.

They want it's presented is sad and both to impeach and those are the ones to watch. I don't think you're going to see Mitch Mcconnell. Take a vote peaches further he said where he's going to be, but there's no signal that there's an appetite among Senate Republicans to actually try to impeach. President. I think Miss Mitchell Conall knows that and I think he would have problems within his comrades, because more people feel like Lindsey Graham ran all than you do have this moderate or independence. In the Republic Republicans innocent, there's gonna be estimating the watch there's also, of course, a battle going on in there swear. You have given me Are they who has turned a blind eye actually to all of his consent, the values that he claimed once believe.

And these in a pitched battle right now with was Cheney who actually sounds and talks and acts and votes by conservative, giusto. The question is: is that the Republican Party anymore- and I doubt it doesn't look like it? It doesn't What had on morning, Joe we'll take a look at where President Biden Corona Virus relief package stands this morning as Democrats prepare to unveil a new plan to help fight child poverty plus does the rub, working party belong to Donald Trump. That's what we're talking about this morning, turns out they and sir may depend on who you ask will explain I had your watch a morning. Job will be right back,

she planned for the end of the world death followed in her wake and children went missing, Mommy Tuesday, but Dateline podcast. It has to be heard to be believed all episodes of they level now a record number of Americans voted for President tromp record number of Republicans voted for President republican voters support Still The party is his. It doesn't belong to. Anybody else party of Abraham Lincoln, where the Party of Ronald Reagan, we have to really take a hike. Look at who we are and what we stand for what we believe in that we should not be embracing. The former president. I'm not saying I gotta say that for those that comment a record number of Republicans,

freedom from you can say that about Hillary Clinton and two thousand. Sixteen a record number of Americans voters, Raillery Clinton and do thousands explain what standards that she lost Donald Trump, was he lost by a record number. I get lost to the guy. At a record number of boats from all America. So it is to separate that world. I hear that world did it is his party and his party's allow Matt Louis before we when did this segment Ebby? Isn't that what We conservatives always bristle that when we heard people say that about Fidel Castro in Cuba, where We read in the history books about Joseph Stalin that the Eddie was Stalin's and Stalin's alone, isn't that what We were concerned about, like with Chairman MAO that there

as no party without Chairman MAO. It was what Chairman MAO said. It was just like the communists, in Cuba was what Fidel Castro's said. It was if it was murdering Catholics and it was murdering Catholics if it was shutting down newspapers and jailing people because they get dared to speak freely, that's what Fidel Castro would do if it was shooting down planes, sadness, then that's over the straits of that what he would do and so now that the Euro is coming from a member of Congress no matter that member of Congresses, it sounds very just very ominous.

The party is Donald. Private Donald Trump is whatever get up. Whatever Donald Trump says a party is it is. This is too ran. I call thinking it's been caught like really really and certainly not deserve alone I think its american Joe. This is. This is almost like making and I had a lot of Donald Trump, it's called leg and It's weird, I mean look up a president political leader who loses the presidency, loses the Senate during his tenure loses the house during his tenure IP actually sabotaged the Senate in Georgia Should not be someone that parties then clinging to us for the future, but more concerning Joe, I guess you're right like this is the stuff of strong men and, of course, we should not place our trust in earthly princes. We

be placing our trust in a higher authority, the almighty, course, but also the constitution and principles right not an individual people will you down and Simon the ITA. Even Reagan would say you know, don't look to be. To be your your guiding light at all times. It's in the trunk once hump wants that worship. I think and he's getting it from a lot of people on Saturday, the Republican Party, a party back and less chinese homes. Why homing vote to censure, less Cheney for her vote to impeach Donald Trump. She responded writing in a statement. My vote to impeach was compelled by the oath I swore to the constitution. Wyoming citizens know that this house does not. Under a yield to politics or partisanship. This comes after she faded and effort in the house last week to remove,

as conference chair, two sources tell access that before the GEO P conference, Meeting Cheney rejected a request, house Majority leader, Kevin Mccarthy, to apologize for her vote to impeach here is more from Congresswoman Cheney. Is this still the party of from an does. Marjorie Taylor Grain still hold a solid plays in that Party Christ. We're Party of Abraham Lincoln, where the Party of Ronald Reagan, we have to really take a hike. Look at who we are and what we stand for, what we believe- and I think it when you look at both his actions, leading up to what happened on January. Six. The fact that he was impeached bipartisan fashion. The fact that that he law the presidency, the fact that we lost the Senate We have to be in a position where we can say we stand for principles. We stand for ideals. Some

Who has provoked an attack on the United States capital to prevent the counting of electoral boats, which resulted in fact people dying who refused to and up immediately when he was asked and stop the violence that that is. And who does not have a role as a leader of our party going forward. We have to make sure that we are able to responsible. City, where the party of truth that we actually can be trusted to handle the challenges as nation faces. Like covered and that's going to require us to focus on substance and policy and issues going forward, but but we should not be embracing the former president just watching list by the way she and I disagree on everything, but the quest that comes. To my mind is why does it take a woman to do something this to say something so basic as it, because she is a mother of five children and she knows you can't equivocate when you're parenting. That no means no. Are any men who can step up in Congress? I know there's some in the Senate. Are there any men who have

You know, what's to step up and say what is clear, what is the right thing out of a democratic Republic and Joe? This is about the right thing about our constitution, so people who were killed this play a riot on the capital. I mean just seems to me that there should be a man in Congress who can step and use his brain instead of what ever other part of his body. Is driving his thinking. Ok, because it's not conservatism, it's not the constitution. That's driving his thinking at some am to up desire to feed in this beast of Donald Trump, who is not even there will. I think one of the most interesting thing in all of the day Sad whenever that was of Israel Cleansing airs, they're, afraid up in the air. There several of the Republicans great who have have stepped forward. But what so interesting is that they fear

Loser Vera Lytton they equivocating right and wrong to follow up. I mean they, let you, but they don't. They don't care about that. These republic. When is the in Congress approved a long time ago. They don't give a damn about what's right and what's wrong, they care about power, they think they're driven by winning, and they are now following cult like somebody that lost the White House lost the Senate thousand representative. So, first president, in U S history to be impeach twice we'll never hold office. And whether anybody passes a resolution or not it's over four, a m lost he's out. He's a wine tar loser closed the book on him and yet they still worship and the question is.

Reverend now. Why do they worship a guy? Who is done more to damage the republican Party? And this is objectively? This isn't my opinion. This is historically is a first present since her who, over the lose the house, the Senate and the presidency, while after he got away, did it to his one term, the biggest loser and the White House since Hoover, so Why wouldn't some back bench cure non types and Kevin Mccarthy still kowtow to this loser? The amazing to me is when you see them capitulate somebody who has really brought them into political disaster, I was wondering father was all a thirst for power, but an end and for winning

gaining and maintaining vow, but when you have a loser, bring a new one loss after another has to be something in their care to some weakness there. You know I'm a product of the black church, our group, and the churches. You did Joe and I was always warned that there was a gap between Leaving the church and building a cult courts are built around people who need weak people are children, to hold them up, because they have no self esteem. These people Need therapy, as well as political divides, cause there's something care to give There is a need for somebody like Donald Trump to fulfil He walks them into disaster. It's amazing to me that, even as we face this trial this week they're sitting there debating about whether or not this man, who not only incited the insurrection, sets literally watching it like he was watching a sports game while it

going on and did nothing to stop the violence, and this still love to bear. It says as much. Them as it does him we'll letting again. This is objective, you can look back and look on your google machine or, if you don't have one go next door and ask your neighbour and I'll kick started You can read theirs but two thousand seventeen. It was Republicans Donald Trump Republic. Who get rooted in local races who got rooted in governor ships and two thousand eighteen. It was Trump Propyl hence who lost by the largest vote margin ever in Congress races and the Republicans law, the majority in the House of Representatives in two thousand nineteen. They lost governor ships, such southern states as Kentucky and the Louisiana. As we say, Louisiana those and in twenty twenty he

ass. The White House and worked over time to make sure Republicans would lose the Senate he's lost everything for the Republican Party and you still have people going out saying this is Donald Trump Republican Party Y Y. You follow them a rabbit alleys lost everything for you and you're still further I don't get it Do what you want to do? You got on smoking but keep em away. May, because I don't want to be a loser like you- can t lose its thinks he's alive What do you think, and so with that is a backdrop- Jonathan we're I'm just curious. We showed a clip of is Jamie and the Cuban on Republican Back bencher, who, whose parties This is going to do.

To win out in the battle between the list, Cheney and the queue and, on fact, venture start by answering it. This way that for the long term, health of the Republican Party list chain better win that argument, because this Cuban on venture, as you say, that's not age, not presenting a winning version here, even side, how dangerous and how irresponsible and reckless her rhetoric is its also. Just simply, if we look at the politics, not a formula that is for long term victory, but right now it points the inflection point their mother can party is because Donald Trump still does have this hold over his party or, at the very least, the fear. Among Republicans of his supporters because he does still remain so popular within the GEO pay. Let me put this you you're you're, so plugged. In with that accusations of Republicans on Capital Hill. Those.

The house we ve seen a lot of jockeying and in fighting there in recent weeks, of course, we're about to have that the Senate trial, the impeachment trial began, tomorrow, give us the latest in terms of who right now Has the more influential voices in that party which move in the wrong about which part, the civil war which side is winning this training establishments, side or. To truly free and these upstarts, those more beholden to president drop. I think what is really important is sat back and you definitely have the list Chinese of the world who are having their forceful voice in their Wilmot now to say, dial up, is wrong, but they are the outliers We need to recognise that the vast majority of house, Republicans in particular, were

did I, and with the support of Donald Trump, they are just there and you dont have happened in the kind of our gas to what they have seen over the last couple of years. These are people were devoted to hear and We knew that he is going to be. There We are worried that at least in the foreseeable future, the most important point is, though, is having She is looking at two years now and wanting to be speaker is something he was always tasted and lost, and now here cs it within his sight to get an he's made a decision The decision is clearly that Donald Trump is his way to that position of power you who has a photo with him, He went down to more. Allow and talk to him. He's been fundraising. When this is done not going the way when it comes to House Republic elected you'd, started to see that Republicans trying to distance himself From a more detailed agreeing somewhat from Donald Trump, but they are very fearful:

What's wrong and the seventy four million voters that voted with him. On a farmer and mad Louis. Thank you both for being on this morning and coming up. Democrats are expected to unveil another part of the Biden Stimulus Bill today, aimed at stamping out child poverty while Doktor your son in law and under word about bad and horsewhipping package aimed at protecting the health of pregnant women and new mothers morning Joe is coming back.

Hey guys, Willie guys here this week on the Sunday sit down podcast I get together with the great Michael J Fox, to discuss his new book, no time like the future about his thirty year, fight against Parkinson's Disease and get our conversation now for free wherever you download your podcast I'm run at fast. If I had to choose between getting help right now to Americans who are hurting so badly in getting drier. Down a lovely negotiation or compromise on a bill that their debts. The crisis this Z, choice. What Republicans I propose! to do nothing or not enough. All of a sudden many more rediscovered fiscal restrain and the consumer for the deficits. But don't kid yourself disappear

so will come with a cost, more pay for more people for longer than has to be It is so crazy. I've gotta these Republicans, fed said a word about the deficit in their conservatives have been so extraordinarily reckless and their spending extraordinarily reckless, and the tax cuts at were the most on targeted, unfocused tax pleasure, extraordinarily wealthy and you're on Amazon, and you make billions and billions of dollars on Amazon pays zero in taxes. Last year I mean that's what the Republicans were proud of over the past four years. At that multinational corporations, get away with economic murder pay nothing in taxes in the most the least target it didn't target. Small businesses didn't target entrepreneurs, it targeted the way the assent now suddenly now, suddenly ever they paid our father billion their bodies and

paid out volleys multinational corporations. Now they want to talk about. This corresponds very wisely, though line that you know these Republicans. They preach capitalism the poor single moms, but they practice chauvinism, to the biggest corporations and their biggest donors Today's senior Democrats are expected to unveil legislation that provides three thousand dollars per child too. Can a family is aimed at making a major dent in child poverty as part of a one point. Nine trillion dollar economic relief package joining us now. My credit congresswoman Lorna Underworld of Illinois she's also registered nurse. Let's start with the covet relief bill at first of all pertaining to Europe. Such ones how they are holding up against the virus and is there for any debate with this within this bill was more we got. You know what we say: her aunt Ellen wage

The rising number of cheese is obviously in the last few weeks they decrease the number of deaths, a decrease. The welcome change, but we know that we are not on a path towards economic recovery unless encrusted back. So that is the priority in this global package, but I welcome the new, Of this type of family related stimulus- I we know, Our families need economic relief when we look at the tall, but the covert virus has taken on our local economies. We know that so many families have been struggling to make ends meet to pay their bills, ants you, you know recover, and so I think that this new- a welcome Congresswoman Underwood our shouted you represent a district dec Clearly, you are arising star nationally, while risen start nationally, but You have had a hard for the district

and we ve seen a disproportionate and am in this pandemic. How important is this relief bill, particularly to people You represent in Congress and people. There been not only hit but hit the hardest doing this phantom. The data is very clear that black and brown communities have been disproportionately it were more likely to be essential workers, frontline workers and, as a result, more likely to be I know so calm at nineteen of more likely to die, and so in this relief package we will be able to get advancements and dad desegregation. You know, only half of states are publicly reporting. They're comin die our seas and death data, and certainly not stratified by race, ethnicity. This is an important step forward, also pregnancies TAT S right and important step forward that will be in the package also very pleased to hear about the buying a minute. Patients plans for vaccine distribution targeting those communities that have

most directly impact it? We need to be flooding the own and these could be- and so when we hear them talk about equity, that's what this means making sure that the people who are experiencing the disproportionate impact of covert nineteen are able to get access to vaccine I mean Le Maire. We are in the middle of a pandemic that is killed almost half a million people. These are an at times and the need out there is real and grave, and it is true what the president said that the Republicans have just now seem to discover fiscal responsibility. And I ask you a minute seems like they're gonna go big with this package rather than I partisan soup, but where and do we reset and actually trying together or is it not possible as long as Trump Republicans exist in the Republican Party.

We'll make, as my colleague and I wrote this weekend, the president's instinct was to go by partisan. He's talk to republic on the phone is host them at the White House. You he's rely on his decades in Washington. Both in the Senate is vice president, when he was present Obama's liaison Republicans on the hill. He has wanted to make this a part, and deal, but he knows the clock is ticking and the urgency of the crises and lessons he learned from the Republicans lack of supporting thousand nine during the economic crisis, has made them on the brake going this allow going big, but going alone were probably very little in the way of Republicans or so congressmen under what I wanted to go to you and ask at this point, we were seeing this with it the needs so dire and so urgent, and so Crystal clear and Republicans still refusing bored with this package. One hope what faith to you have going forward that the Republicans in either has

Congress, putting your own are going to be reliable governing partners, as the nation continues to deal with the after effects of this pandemic. This isn't going to be the last. We feel this isn't going to be the last major crisis, but the Bite administration is going to face. Can Republicans be countered onto help what we now that their constituent, are supportive of the bill, and we know that their constituents are eager from the financial debate so? We know that Kobe has impacted communities, world communities, extra urban communities, suburban communities so

these communities that my republican colleagues do in fact represent, and I can tell you, because I represent a district like that to that that my constituents are very supportive of this belief, tat its their think, feel that sense of urgency and they are looking for their members of Congress to be leaders in this effort. And so I expect that when our package comes from the floor for a vote, that we will all support the least about some house Republican and that, depending on this, that boat. I think we might be able than that of peace than a republican representative underwear. I want to ask you about they mom the bus act, you're working on an issue that actually has been a huge issue: free years now. What does it do? Who are you trying to help

While I am United States, black women are three to four times more likely to die of a pregnancy related costs than white women. This is a disparity that has been around my entire. What time thirty, four years old and search last year, we introduced a comprehensive large they'll call. The blacklist oh, how Mammy by terrorism and all the Adams worked airliner and then Senator Conway here as to address this spirit. We know that there are solutions, whether we are talking about increasing that perinatal workforce or making key investments to address social determinants upheld by how thing and nutrition and Transportation Manuel

introduce thing that legislation today we have a new partner and Senator Corey Buffer, and we ve expanded the mommy bus from nine bills to twelve. If you can imagine swell bill on this one issue, we have included provisions to address climate change and to build its was that we to deal with the impact of covert nineteen.
