was so desperately needed, urgently needed. this plan is going to make it possible to cut child poverty in half. i m going to succeed. we re going to succeed moving forward. look, the american people strongly support this. that s the key here. as someone who spent the entire primary campaign criticizing joe biden, this weekend, the president did what i thought he couldn t, or just wouldn t, by getting results on what undeniably is the most pro-worker, anti-poverty accomplishment by an american president since lyndon johnson. don t take my word for it. listen to the senate budget committee chair, a certain bernie sanders, who called it, quote, the most significant piece of legislation to benefit working families in the modern history of this country. and he s right. i mean, how else to describe a bill that halves child poverty. halves it, thanks to $1400 direct payments, survival checks, a typical family of four gets $5600 in new payments or $7600 in new payments if ....
Black congressional district didn t do that. if only we had known you can just ignore sam alito, clarence and friends a year ago when they overturned roe v. wade. late today, the republican controlled alabama legislature passed a map with just one majority black seat in direct defiance of the nation s highest court. instead, they opted to choose betwee a district that is 42% black and another option with a district that is tlat% black. the joint legislature chose the second option, surprise surprise. a senate approved map with a district that is less than four tenths african american. i m not a math girl, but i do know enough to know that 38% is well short of a majority. earlier this week, alabama s senate president pro tem said i know the process has moved through the three judge panel and then to the supreme court, and they have given an order that we need to redo the map, so here we are. it doesn t mean we re excited about it, but we re going to do our job. what it didn t say is tha ....
I think he realizes right now that s beyond his capabilities. he is still moving nuclear capable missile launchers through red square, right? that s right. it s interesting what he isn t doing, bill burns, the cia director was talking over the weekend, the forum that the financial times had, he made the point that for all of the threats that we ve had from putin, he hasn t actually moved his nuclear weapons into a state of readiness in an observable way. and what does that say. it htells you that he always wants you to remember that behind his military operation is the possibility he could use a nuclear weapon. but so far he doesn t want to do any of the things that might trigger a western response to bring that condemnation. i don t think this is over. if he gets stuck in this south or the east, if his ambitions are completely frustrated, i could imagine him moving to cyber, chemical, or even nuclear weapons, but i think the chances ....
good evening. i m erin burnett and outfront tonight, we have breaking news. rhode island senator sheldon whitehouse announces tonight he ll introduce a warren buffett rule bill in the senate. first touted by president obama in his state of the union last week, the bill would require those earns more than a million dollars to pay at least 30% in taxes. that s an effective rate. the marginal rate would be 44%. he comes outfront tonight. we appreciate you taking the time, sir. thank you very much. it s good to be with you. a lot of people say this bill isn t going to go anywhere. you re going to get fights from republicans. millionaire s taxes didn t pass in the senate last year despite the democrats there. is this really a move for a political headline or something you think will actually pass? i think there s a good chance that it can pass. if it has difficulty on its own, bear in mind at the end of this year, all of the bush tax cuts expire and that s going to ....
