this is power. so's this. you recognize it. but for the corporate special interests and billionaires buying our elections, dark money is power. billions spent manipulating elections. gerrymandering partisan congressional districts. and restricting our freedom to vote. exactly why we need the for the people act--h.r. 1. to finally ban dark money. ensure fair congressional districts. and protect our freedom to vote. because the real power is you. and it's time for the people to win. and it's time (sound of people returning to the workplace) (sound of a busy office) (phones ringing, people talking, meeting) the company we've trusted to keep us working remotely, is the same company we'll trust to bring us back together. safely. securely. and responsibly. so now, between all apart and all together, there's a bridge.

>> that'll be a good day. i hope we get to see it and i hope we start making progress in a way that alluded us so far. i am happy for him. but, i really wish it was so consequential for so many and we didn't have to monitor it now and michael sam didn't have to come out, missouri state, he never played a game in the nfl even though he was a warrior and crusher in college and highly sought after because of the mental strain of the years following when he decided to come out. i hope things continue to optimistically get better. anderson, appreciate your report as always. i am chris cuomo, welcome to "primetime." are you ready to play to win? have you had enough? >> mcconnell and co. did exactly what we knew and you knew they would do.
10:06 pm
they tanked the need to send voting rights back 50 years. they won't even allow debates. nothing to fix says senator mcconnell. if there is nothing to fix then why don't you say that to all the red states that says they must pass these laws to fix fraud. why do you say it to them? you are playing the game and it is ugly and obvious and i want you to hear the words of a leader made today, nailing the reality of this moment. i think the tragedy is that we have congress with a senate that has a minority of misguided senators who'll use the filibuster to keep the majority people from voting. they won't let the majority of senators vote. suddenly they would not want the majority of the people to vote.
10:07 pm
they know they would not represent the majority of the american people. they are representing their own states of very small minority. question for you my brothers and sisters. who said it? chuck schumer? president biden, former president obama? pe pelosi? nope. none of them. our current dilemma is an echo of the exclusionary tactics of a generation ago when this was said. >> i think the tragedy is that we have a congress with the senate that has a minority of misguided senators who used the filibuster from keeping the majority people from voting. suddenly they do not want the majority to vote because they do not represent the majority of
10:08 pm
the american people, they represent their home state. >> dr. king by half a century ago. we thought this battle was over but it was not. the stakes are once again the same as then. dr. martin luther king jr. pushed the senate to overcome the culture of exclusion back then, a year before the civil rights act of 1964, two years before the 1965 voting rights act. here we are again today talking about a minority party using a filibuster to allow them to keep suppressing the votes of minorities and others. it is an existential battle. this is not about left and right, it is about right or wrong. i don't understand how you can see two sides on this. i don't see how you can believe any suggestions that these laws don't do anything. they don't limit.
10:09 pm
all they do is limit to one degree or another. just as then a minority is trying to keep the vote as close to them as possible and lying about that intention. listen. >> the biggest lie being told in recent weeks had been at the states involved in a systematic effort to suppress votes. there is no efforts in america to suppress votes based on suppression of minority participation. there is nothing broken about the country. >> nothing is broken around the country, why has 14 states enacted 22 new restricted laws since the 2020 election in every one of them citing that election as a reason for this need? 389 bills have been introduced
10:10 pm
in 48 states with provisions that to one degree or another restrict voting access, many disproportionately targeting voters of color. remember, here is the hypocrisy, the people behind -- yes, those lawmakers who voted against hr-1 and sr-1, they now want you to believe it is fraudulent. a third of you believed in this u.s. that they have been selling it. now they'll point to the polls that people think there is fraud, we should address it. you toll them there was fraud. lies. eve even mcconnell gets what this is about. >> what a way to show your disdain for the american people choices. >> he's exactly right. except he's talking about
10:11 pm
himself and his pal hs here, terrorists storming the capitol. failing to certify what they wanted. that was one of the biggest power-grabbing attempt in history. manchin, the democratic of the moment and all other democrats voted for a debate to happen on a bill they have been hammering out. will that vote hold to do what they must now and to get this protective process through? modify the filibuster and halt al move to take us back a generation or not. those are the stakes. let's ask a better mind, one who cast his votes to advance s-1. senator bob casey, state of pennsylvania. good to see you, sir. >> good to be with you, thank you. >> obviously the easy question
10:12 pm
is where do we go? >> well, chris, we have to continue to make the case. today was just the beginning. today was very clear that one party new ham pa party unanimously wanted to protect the right to vote and the other party didn't want to debate it. this is a vote to proceed to a debate. it was not a debate voted on the bill itself. one party did that and clear to americans of what the stakes are. we are at the beginning of this and we have to keep fighting to make sure more and more americans know what's at stake. just getting to 50 and required some work. i think we got to make the case day after day because at the core of these voter suppression laws in my judgment at the state level is white supremacy. simple as that. unless we continue to make the case on voting rights, then the other side will prevail, i think today was just the beginning.
10:13 pm
>> help us understand that. that you have to start making the case, why is it just keep all 50 of your number together and convince manchin and sinema and a couple of others, we got to modify and if that expires, we can vote for culture and get it done. is that the only fight ahead of you if you want to get it done? >> it is both. we have to continue to make the case to the country of what happened today and what's at stake? >> still a lot of people around the country have not tuned into this. you are right, ultimately, we have to modify at least the 60 votes rule. when you consider what happened just in the mid 1970s. that number went from 67 to 60. there is no reason why we should not reduce the number or bring about some other change to make sure that voting rights are
10:14 pm
protected. now, i have heard senators in our caucus who said i have real concerns about changing in rules but for this issue, i can be persuaded. that's a workplace they made. so many of us are already there. i still think we can make the case to members of our caucus about the urgency and privacy about this issue. the right to vote. >> you don't think you will get ten votes from the other side. i mean you have solid poll numbers of people believing these are problematic laws. >> i don't believe it. i think you are right. i don't believe we are at the point where we can say window got to make the case for republicans and get ten of their votes. i don't think it is possible. we have to make the case between and among ourselves to make a change to allow this to go forward. when you consider what we are voting on today, the motion to proceed, not just the voting rights bill but a bill that
10:15 pm
would help reduce the influence of dark money and politics. when they say don't even debate that, i think they were in s solving and giving the middle finger to the american people. >> lisa murcowski, she didn't voted on this. >> why did you guys wait so long? >> it look so long to get to this point. why didn't you push -- not you, senator casey, this was not your stand alone decision. schumer and pelosi, why didn't they push it harder to give yourself more time to deal with it. >> part of the answer is when you are in the majority, you
10:16 pm
have responsibilities. when you have a majority and the presidency of your party, we got to do dominations. we have to pass the rescue plan and get the infrastructure bill off the ground. this physical infrastructure only and negotiations is not going to satisfy he. i want investment in universal access of pre-k. we got to do a number of things simultaneously. i think this is a clarifying moment to the american people. every single member of the united states senate on the democratic side voted to advance the debate. i still think we can bring, not just our party behind a building. i think we can end up changing the rules in some fashion. >> senator bob casey, always a pleasure to have you on the show. appreciate you on an important night. >> thanks christ. schumer is ahead of the
10:17 pm
senate majority. he says this was a starting gun and not the finishing line on tp voting rights. >> would you buy that? i am sure they mean it but how. how many of you is it going to convince? you are going to make your republican senators to vote for it? >> that's not going to happen. what's the next move for the democrats? how do you get around the opposition party. they're locked in. they're not the democrats. what is the next play here? van jones' insights, next. at morgan stanley, a global collective of thought leaders offers investors a broader view. ♪ we see companies protecting the bottom line by putting people first. we see a bright future, still hungry for the ingenuity of those ready for the next challenge. today, we are translating decades of experience into strategies for the road ahead.

allowed a debate. that's the sin here. you have argument that this bill is no good. great, make them. they voted to not allow debate on the deal they don't like. do you understand? something as fundamental as voting rights, they don't want it to have a fair hearing because they don't have a strong case. zero voted to debate this. zero voted for the last covid relief package which they have bragging to you about it at home. on the other side, zero amendments have been made before the people. >> zero, they don't want to make it better? >> they don't want to change it. they want to oppose. now, does that mean zero is also the number for any path to helping joe manchin or any other democrats get tag along votes or
10:23 pm
murcowski, she didn't vote either. let's bring in vance jones. >> i don't get this. the negotiations can begin i hear from other democrats. they won't even debate it, why do you think they would vote for it. >> let's talk about what's going on. at the grass roots level, you had activists who fought and tried to -- they have done all they could. >> not working. they got steam rolled. the democratic party at the top could not sit back oh jesus, there is nothing we can do. they have to put on this core press. they're going to run right into the staun onewall. we did all we could at the federal level. they may continue the conversation but here is reality. >> the congressional government
10:24 pm
is not going to help now. >> we are on our own. we can call or do whatever. we got to get ready for one of the most consequential elections in an unfair generations two or three. i understand where they want to keep on talking about it but we knew we are going to hit this wall. national democrats were correct and trying to get the federal gun shot to help. help is not only on the way. >> so you think is over? >> yes. i mean i try to call this stuff fair. i think we got to keep the pressure on. i do think the senator is correct. a lot of people are not paying attention, you continue to define republicans as antirights to vote. you got to keep that fight up. the reality if you are cold or hot, this is going to be a
10:25 pm
door-to-door grass roots slug fest. we got to get ready for that fight psychologically, otherwise we'll spend a lot more time on this and emotionally, it will let us talk about it. and by the way, it was an insalt. you put the rules together. it was not democrats. republicans wrote the rule back on voting. they enforced the rule book. we took those rules and won. what you are saying is across this country when we win, leadership, it is by definition illeg illegitimate. that's why people feel so bad about this because you're correct to play dr. king. it does feel like the old day when the government let us mowed
10:26 pm
down and did nothing. >> schumer? >> a lot of people were mad at him today. you are using the advantage and the rhetoric. oh my god, you are insulting mcconnell. i don't know what's in mcconnell's heart. the argumentm that he made toda that the federal government had no business of protecting our rights. >> look, i wish i come out here, hey, we'll keep pushing and we'll get to the table. this thing at the federal level at best i can tell is a messaging exercise. >> we got to get ready to register. i understand that part. i do think that this should be the hill to die-on for your party. >> racial inequality was a big driver for biden. a lot of people came out for him

here is the reality, we are shooting each other and killing each other at a fever pitch. homicide rates, they're up. now, i know they spike when it gets hot outside. but, this is something we need to look at, okay? maybe more than seasonal, at least in some places like new york city when you look at these rates being up across the city. places that cut police budgets and we are spending increase and no we do not see evidence that this is about police and not doing their jobs anymore. until you have facts about it, shut up about it. at least you are on this show? president biden knows this is going to be a huge political culture. tough on crime is a big political ouryourself.

reforms and laws and figuring out how to police. policing, you have to ask they are wearing the fruits of those measures. let's look at violent crime because now you got a push back to the premise which is everything is worse. >> what we see here, look at the violent crime. what we see here is that in fact there is very little change compares to a year ago and in fact compares to 2019 and new york and los angeles and ch chicago, the rates are actually down. what's that's going on right now is something that's causing the rate to spike. so this is one of the puzzles and crime. we have low crimes everywhere
10:35 pm
but we don't know how it works. >> look, you and i are new yorkers, we know what works here. we know that bratton coming in during the rudy giuliani's administration and catching people doing smaller level crimes and putting them in jail. it wound up taking new york city to much a better place. now, you have a reverse of that reality in the city because you have people using guns and commission of crimes and getting let out, waiting on a case, doing it again while they're waiting on a case and they're staying out. that's an issue. >> i will point that, yes, that's true. obviously we should note that the crime rates were much lower than 1990 whnen it spiked in ne york city. we saw a nationwide drop. plenty of people hoar certainly
