at risk. >> do you guys have a plan? $30,000 is quite a lot of money per month. will you be tapping into the federal funds that the white house offered up, at least president biden did, to i believe it was you or the interim superintendent over the phone? >> well, what president biden said is that he would allow us to take the money from our elementary and secondary education dollars. but it still means that we will be short of those funds, because if we didn't have to take them from that pot of money, we could use that pot of money to help students and put those dollars into the classrooms. it's one of those things where i guess our love for our students and our staff is becoming now something that's being used to penalize our district. and it's just such -- i don't know, it's just such a horrible predicament to be in, because people's lives are invaluable.

district lines before the 2022 midterm elections even take place. joining me now is jasmine crockett of texas, and reverend dr. william barber, cochair of the people's campaign and the president of the repairers of the breach. thank you so much both for joining me today. i want to start with you, reverend barber. because one of the challenges that we've had is that there seems to be a stalemate right now in passing the for the people's act, but this can have dire consequence if we allow republican-controlled statehouses to draw up a lot of these district lines as i mentioned before. can you speak to the urgency that we are facing right now? >> well, you're exactly right. we don't need one or the other. we need a for the peoples act because it deals with gerrymandering, it deals with access to the ballot t deals with getting dark money out of politics. we also need the restoration of voting rights act for future bills. that will deal with preclearance. i come from a state after the shelby decision, one of our

mess, how do we do better going forward? >> i appreciate that, alex, because as americans, why don't we come together. there will be plenty of time to figure out what went wrong. that means making sure we are there even if we have to extend our time to the august 31st deadline until all americans who want to leave can leave. we have an obligation to get all of the americans out. second, we need to expedite the processing of visas. i am in a district that has 25,000 afghan americans. we've been inundated with questions. we're sending them to the state department. we still need to cut through some of that red tape so that interpreters and our allies are able to come here and we're resettling them here. any community in my district is a huge asset and for any american to imply that we shouldn't be taking afghani refugees is just ignorant. we have a moral obligation to have them here after being there for 20 years. >> i'm going to ask you about
