Her boss crossed party lines announcing Infrastructure Spending agreement. The president is touting it as proof he can work with republicans to get things finished. A lot of deal is still not done. White house correspondent peter doocy has our report. We have a deal. 1. 2 trillion deal agreed to by a small group of democrats and republicans. Were not finished. We have got other projects to take on, but america works, the senate works, and we can work together. This package only focuses on fixing physical infrastructure like roads and bridges. None of us got what we all wanted. The part about paying for it comes later. The president sees this as critical to staying competitive. We are in a race with china and the rest of the world for the 21st century. They are not waiting. The white house claims this package could create millions of jobs and they claim no tax hikes for the middle class. My dad used to say being the middle class is being able to take that extra breath. I mean it sincerely. Think about it. Think about all the people that cant take that breath. They have no margin for error. Peter tomorrow attention shifts to Immigration Policy as the Vice President visits texas. Its an invasion. I know people dont like that word. Some people dont like it but its true. Thats whats happening. America is being invaded. Texas something invaded. And some democrats are puzzled as to why she is taking air force 2 to el paso. Hundreds of miles away from the busiest part of the border. You have been pleading for help and you just talked about a politically safe trip on behalf of the Vice President. Is that how you see it . Yes, sir. This afternoon, fox news cut a president ial preview. What are you hoping the Vice President will see at the border tomorrow. She has done a great job so far and the reason why its important that she goes down, has now set up the criteria, having spoken with the president of mexico and guatemala and visited the region to know what we need to do. They are trying to have it all here at the white house. Celebrating todays Infrastructure Agreement but saying its not going to get signed unless Congress Sends it over here for a signature alongside a bill thats been sitting there filled with money addressing child care and climate change. The president is also now hinting at a roadshow in coming weeks where he goes out and promotes that Voting Rights package that just failed a couple days ago. Mike . Mike peter doocy lye on the north lawn. Peter, thanks very much. Stocks were up after the infrastructure announcement. The dow gained 323. The s p 500 finished ahead 25 for a new record close. Nasdaq jumped 98. Also hitting a new record finish. Lets talk about whats happening on capitol hill and around the country. Joining us tonight is Senate Minority leader Mitch Mcconnell. Leader mcconnell, welcome. Glad to be with you. Mike on infrastructure, today was a bit of a roller coaster ride. Announcement of a bipartisan deal and then talks that democrats still want as much as a 6 trillion partisan package that progressives like senator Bernie Sanders want. Is this a trap or bait and switch being set by democrat for the g. O. P. . Well, i was initially optimistic but you can best be described as a tale of two Press Conferences. After the first one, the president walks out with a Bipartisan Group and blesses an Infrastructure Bill that many of my members are quite optimistic about. And then after all of those people depart the white house, the president goes out for the Second Press Conference and says unless we can pass my tax bill, i wont sign the Infrastructure Bill. So, what it does puts my members including myself who were optimistic about doing an bipartisan Infrastructure Bill in the position of our democratic friends having to guarantee that the 2017 tax bill unwound, thats our one red line. We are not going to revisit the 2017 tax bill which is enormous success to the country. Led us to the best economy in 50 years as of February 2020 and so i think we have gone from optimism to perform as a result as pessimismas a result of the s Second Press Conference. Mike have you been in talks many, many years. Is there any chance of a Infrastructure Bill getting toe President Bidens desk, especially with his twotrack approach they are taking . Well, it puts all of us republicans who think the 2017 tax bill was the key to americas economic success as of February 2020 in the position of if we cooperate with them in passion the Infrastructure Bill, all the democrats have to line up and fracture the 2017 Tax Bill Raising Taxes on individuals, on a state, on companies and the rest, it puts us in a very, very challenging position. So i would say we need to keep talking here because i think the bill to be bipartisan is going to have to have republican support. Mike okay, to illegal immigration. Vice president harris is due to visit el paso tomorrow, not going to the Rio Grande Valley or that crowded facility in guana, texas. Do you expect this trip to the border to toledo a meaningful shift in the administrations policy in terms of this immigration crisis. I sure would like to see shift. We all know the remain in mexico policy being undone by this administration created the crisis. At least the administration feels its important enough to send the Vice President down there. But i think the proof will not be in the visit. But in the policy. Mike any explanation in your view why el paso and not the Rio Grande Valley . Thats a good question. Maybe the Vice President can answer that. Make mike fair enough. Okay. So, the voting bill that failed in the senate this week, President Biden is not letting it go. Lets take a listen. These guys are trying to do now in rough approximation is say that if we dont like the way the vote turned out, we control the state legislature, we are going to say the vote didnt count. And were going to recount. Thats never happened before. Its wrong. Who in gods name, as my mother would say, died and left them boss . The Voting Rights bill only got 50 yes votes it needed 60. It wasnt even close to passing. Was this a messaging bill all along . Well, i think so. And if the president wants to keep on talking about it, we would like to keep on talking about it, too. Because there is no Voter Suppression going on in any state in america. And the bill they were trying to pass would have Taxpayer Dollars spent on Political Campaign us. Would turn the federal Election Commission from a judge into a prosecutor. In other words, make it unbalanced. And prevent photo i. D. At the polls, something supported by 80 of americans. So, if the president wants to keep on talking about this bill, so do we. Mike Speaker Nancy Pelosi announced a january 6th commission today. In fact, she mentioned you by name. Lets take a listen. Despite the expressed support of seven g. O. P. Senators, Mitch Mcconnell asked Republican Senate to do him a personal favor and vote against the commission. Cowardly the republican senators did him a personal favor rather than honoring their patriotic duty, to protect and defend. Mike how do you respond to her and do you worry about this Commission Dragging on through next year . Yeah. This is not about me. This is about the democrats trying to convince the American People that were not going to find out what happened on january 6th. Well, we were all witnesses. We know. People are being arrested and indicted and one has already pled guilty. Nobody will fail to be punished. In terms of preventing this from happening again, two committees in the senate have already reported a game plan to prevent this from happening again with a new security apparatus. Nobody is going to get away with anything. And all of those who participated are going to be punished. Mike Leader Mcconnell 50 50 senate. Next year you have another opportunity of elections. Are you going to be the Majority Leader in 2023. I hope so. Mike leader Mitch Mcconnell, we have to leave it there. Thanks foyer your time. Thank you.

This evening we look at the uproar over Public Education over Political Correctness and Critical Race Theory Racial Discrimination to americas foundations system. Jacqui heinrich says has some splaining to do. Heated debate over Critical Race Theory boiled over in a house hearing. Rather than face parental criticism, they shut down public comment, they adjourn the meeting, and they actually racist police to come and arrest. We want to remind people to respect each other. Democrat Donald Norcross did not confirm whether he was the one who shouted racist the exchange from members of congress overshadowed will cardona facing questions whether the federal government promote materials nations founding rooted in racism with a focus on how privilege and bias continue to impact people today. We are not promoting curriculum. We are commune case that districts and state have the responsibility to do it. We also dont want to be engaged in politicizing of curriculum. Cardona insisted state and local officials will make Curriculum Decisions down playing the significance of a department of education Budget Proposal prioritizing grants for schools teaching the 1619 project. He is using the application process for the American History and Civics Education program to promote Critical Race Theory. Indoctrinating children is a violation of federal law. There was a very minor reference to an example that included that. Cardona was less clear on whether Student Loan Borrowers can expect any debt forgiveness. We recognize the impact that the impact in h. An our borrowers and extending the pause is something that will we have had conversations about. The legal panel studying President Bidens authority to cancel student debt produced no answers in the three months since its launch. And there is no timeline on when they will wrap up. And President Biden campaigned on a promise to cancel up to 10,000 of student debt for every borrower. But his first Budget Proposal didnt even include any provisions to cancel student debt and that has prompted questions from progressives about just how serious he is when it comes to taking action, mike .
