Taking a vote of conscience on the former president. As for greene, she was given a Standing Ovation by some. Were live following all of it on capitol hill. Also where does the covid Relief Bill Stand and President Bidens first major Foreign Policy speech comes later today. Lets go to our colleague lauren fox on the hill. Good morning to you, lauren. The republican Leader Punting and punting on punishing Marjorie Taylor greene. Where do things stand this morning . Well, exactly. Hes essentially telling House Democrats to move ahead with their resolution. They will bring to the floor this afternoon. It will force every single republican member to Make A Stand On Whether or not they think that their colleague should be able to stay on the committees that she serves on. Thats the Education Committee and the budget committee. This is really an unprecedented move that democrats are going toward because they are arguing in traditional times, when there is a controversial member, it is up to
Im very excited to tell my daughter all about it. For those of you who have not followed, through the artimus, the American Government will send astronauts to the service of the moon, another man and woman to the moon, which is very exciting. Conduct new science, prepare for future trips to mars. Today only 12 humans have walked on the moon. That was half a century ago. The artimus provides the opportunity to add numbers to that, of course. Lunar exploration has brought the most recently detailed in fy21 omnibus spending bill, and certainly we support this effort and endeavor. Why dont we go to you first, darlene. Reporter thank you. Can you update us on the president s thinking on forgiving Student Loan Debt . There are groups who are pushing for the president to forgive all Student Loan Debt. Where does he stand on all that .

Country. That is a question, manu, that cannot be left unsaid, that Kevin Mccarthy went to maralago to Kiss The Ring of the former president. Marjorie Taylor Greene tweeted out a day or so after the meeting that she was on trumps side. Wearing a mask that said free speech, she said she wants to work with everybody about keeping america first, using the language of donald trump, essentially sending a message she expects to survive this. The party still talks badly about her and about the embrace of Conspiracy Theorists or at least not expunging the party of Conspiracy Theorists. A number of Senate Republicans dont like the way republicans handled this last night in which they took action on their own to make clear there is just no room for someone in the party like Marjorie Tyler green. Tom thune told he am morning that a party is, well he had raised caioncerns that the part was focused on qanon, so there is a concern here from a number of republicans about the way forward, and we heard

Theres no longer a bright line between foreign and domestic policy. Every action we take and our conduct abroad, we must take with american Working Families in mind.
