a committee member joins us with more on that. and russia and chichina's leaders are meeting face to face. and speak with foreign relations committee chair bob menendez about it. today is day one of hispanic heritage month. we'll talk about efforts to address mental health access for latinos. plus thousands of people lining up for hours to pay their respects as the queen lies in state. we'll go live to london. we begin this hour with two buss with people who had crossed the border in texas arriing near the residence of vice president harris in washington, d.c. this according to fox news. they were reportedly sent by

texas governor greg abbott, who has also sent buss with migrants to new york city in an effort to pressure the biden administration on immigration. this morning new york city mayor eric adams toured a center that's now helping those who were bussed there. el paso also bussed people theres last month. in florida the office of governor ron desantis provided this video, which they say shows migrants arriving in martha's vineyard yesterday. the governor claiming credit for flying two planes with migrants there joining us now with more from fort lauderdale is kerry sanders. good morning. this is a program that apparently is gaining strength and popularity with some republican governors, but it's all down to a humanitarian crisis. >> reporter: well, jose, this is clearly an escalation by republican governors who are in a standoff with the biden administration over their border

and immigration policies. this move right here is unprecedented using airplanes now to deliver migrants to martha's vineyard. something that is really designed, it appears, to put this issue in democratically controlled communities. this morning a surprising scene in martha's vineyard. two planes filled with 50 mite grants landing on the island, according to emergency management officials. authorities say the planes were sent from florida wednesday afternoon by governor ron desantis. this video provided by ron desantis' office, which says it was obtained by a source on the ground, appears to show the migrants' arrival on the island. his office saying the planes were part of the state's relocation program to transport illegal immigrants to sanctuary destinations.

adding, states like massachusetts, new york, and california will better facilitate the care of these individuals who they have invited into our country by incentivizing illegal immigration. >> this is really clearly a political stunt. >> reporter: republican governor ron desantis borrowing a tactic from other republican governors, moving migrants to other states in order to protest the biden administration's border policy. since april texas bussed more than 7,000 migrants to d.c., which declared a public emergency last week. the state has also bussed thousands to new york and chicago. local democratic lawmakers in martha's vineyard outraged. some saying he met with the immigrants a at a local church and dozens of beds have been suppied by local social services, along with meals, medical care and a play area for children at the shelter. >> sol of these people i have

been told traveled months just to get to the border. and then were sent here in an airplane with little information about where they are going or why they were going there. >> reporter: local officials say they got very little information about the fact that these planes would be arriving. no information, so they had to scramble to get the humanitarian services provided for those immigrants. in the meantime, later today probably in about an hour or sorks we're expected to hear from the republican governor ron desantis, who likely will address why he did this and how he funded it. jose? >> kerry sanders, thank you so much. there are clearly political ramiications and issues involving this, but really it's important to focus on the fact that these are men, women, and children who have left their country, many of them facing the most difficult circumstances one

could imagine. now they are being dealt with like this. joining me now is the executive director of the central american resource center. thank you. you have been assisting some of the migrants from texas once they get to d.c. they have gone through just the unimaginable. what is it they tell you? what do they need? >> i mean, what they need is work. they want to come here to contribute to this country. what they need is a place to stay and to have that initial welcome so they can begin to provide for themselves. and at the same time, contribute to this nation. i think that if the governors wanted to do this, all we ask is we coordinate. it's clearly demonstrates they are weaponizing the immigrants, which makes them disgusting people. you're using people for a political point, but they are spending real resource ps. if they could coordinate with us, we could do it. it's restaurant interesting that

the cities that are receiving now they shifted toen send a surprise bus to the vice president's house. they don't like the fact that we can support them, and we can provide a better life here and become a contributing member to our society. >> how does your organization deal with this? do you have enough resources? is there a policy or even a pipeline of support by the government here to organizations like yours? how are you all handling this? >> so at the beginning, it was all emergency funding by our violent foundations. that continues to happen. governments are starting to take in. the mayor declared an emergency, which allows her government to put money she is allotted for this response. you can see new york doing the same thing. we have fema now that's

supporting our efforts of receiving the immigrants. so funding is beginning to come through. and we have a better infrastructure than we did at the beginning of this. so that's what the republican governors do not like. the fact that they try to hurt us, but all you're doing is give ing -- >> i think we're losing your signal. i don't know -- are you able to converse now? >> i can hear now. sorry. >> it's just the technology that we're dealing with on a daily basis. the may your of el paso has been sending folks coing across his area to new york as well. so it's a -- clearly, this is a political situation handled by politicians. but bringing it back to the people. i'm just thinking the people that were just dropped off in martha's vineyard. the people arriving in new york

or in d.c., many of them from venezuela that have seen and had to go through the most difficult, horrendous situations once they decide to leave their country, i'm thinking of the people in haiti a that take to the boats and try to leave that island nation. 63 years of a dictatorship and people are still trying to get out. how is it that -- is there a national policy to deal with the fact that you should be able to legally request asylum. it just seems it's made impossible. >> well, yeah. i think the process is very difficult. but when we need to understand is the humanitarian need is initial. how do you welcome them to make sure they transition well. then we can deal with their immigration status. we have to remember all these immigrants have are legally in

the country. they used the term illegals. this is just to hurt them. it's about the humanity of how you receive them that they get a welcoming message so they can become and start contributing to this country. because that's what they want. independent of what they have suffered, the country of origin in their route to the u.s., once they are here, how can i begin to work. i want to contribute and provide for my family. and also provide for this nation. i think they are thankful they are being received. this can be a model where you have a state government helping people to get where they want to go. >> i thank you for shining the light and focusing on the real issue, which is human beings, men, women, and children who are here and have come through the horrible situations that they may have come through to try and have a new life here in the united states. thank you for being with us and for what you do for so many. coming up, leaders putin and

15 after the hour. the house january 6th committee chair says the secret service turned over, quote, thousands of exhibits including text messages from agents on january 5th an 6th. thompson says the material is significant and that committee staff are now reviewing it. with us now to talk about this is congresswoman lofgren, who is a member of the january 6th committee. it's a pleasure to see you. i thank you. i want to clarify something

about the text messages, if we could. are they the ones that were supposedly deleted or different set of messages? >> the rules don't allow us to go into the specifics of the evidence that we have. but i will say that some of the text messages were permanently deleted. some have been recovered. some of the evidence that has been sent over is not just text messages, but there's e-mails, radio traffic, there's teams meets, it's a variety of meetings. some of it is relevant. some of it isn't. we're going through it methodically to have everything in front of us so we know what to do next. >> and was this large amount recently received by you all? has it been a process or a big lump sum? >> i would say it's mainly recently. there's been some other material

prior to this. but it really took some insistence on the part of of members of the committee to open the flood gates. i do want to give a thanks to the secretary, who was assigned someone to make sure that the flow of information is smooth. and i think we're in a good spot now from that point of view. >> so you say some of those texts were permanently deleted. that's it, end of the road for that. do we have any idea how many were permanently deleted? what percentage, what amount, what volume? >> i think you can get call records to see, but what were within the texts, you don't know. but we will be piecing together information. obviously, there's witness testimony to come. we just want to find out what happened and be able to put that

information together with the rest of the information we have for a complete picture because part of our obligation, as you know s not just to fact find and clips dis close, but to pom ul gait suggestions both legislative and administrative that will keep our country safer in the future. we're also working on those issues and recommendations as we continue to finish this investigation. >> congresswoman, i know you were also in a meeting with white house officials this morning about u.s. refugee admissions. what came out of that meeting? >> each year the secretary of state has to meet personally with the chair and ranking member of the judiciary committees of the house and senate and the immigration subcommittees. in the past we sometimes have had contentious meetings.

the number is going to be set at 125,000. one of the concerns i express, and i think it was great sympathy from secretary blinken, and we have some communist regimes in the western hemisphere. cuba, venezuela, where the communist oppression is leading people to flee for freedom. and we need to make sure that those refugees from comunism have the capacity to be welcome ed here in the united states. that was one of the questions that i had for the secretary. so i'm hopeful that we'll have smooth sailing as we move forward. obviously, the prior administration basically destroyed the refugee program. by not having any refugees admitted and a nonprofit agency had to disman. so we're in a rebuilding mode.

americans that want to spob sort refugees are now being recruited and trained and funded. that's a brand new important part of this whole refugee sl. >> congresswoman, thank you. always a pleasure. i appreciate your time. >> thank you. this morning an economic crisis averted. early this morning, president biden announced a tentative agreement was reached that would stave off a strike by tens of thousands of rail workers with just hours to spare. after 20 consecutive hours of negotiations, the white house says the deal includes better pay and working conditions for rail workers. joining us is kelly o'donnell. what more do we know?

>> reporter: this is one of the instances you saw a high level of direct involvement. the president himself getting involved with these negotiations by contacting the labor secretary. the union representatives and the different rail companies involved. and really putting pressure on everyone at the table to say, look what would happen to the american economy if this stoppage were to happen. we have already lived through the kind of supply chain crises that stemmed from covid if there was a work shortage because of a union dispute across this kind of industry, it could have devastating effect on the economy and certainly in a political context right before the midterm elections. so expect the white house to talk about this a lot today. the president, who along part of his personal brand is his affection for amtrak, which is separate. that's passenger rail. this is freight.

and what we expect is to learn more details. this still needs to be voted on by the unions involved, but a what they gain is higher pay, more control over their health care and sick time, and the unions also believe that they will have one of the highest levels of increase in pay they have seen in decades. but also the rail companies have more flexibility in their hiring. a lot of the details still to be learned about what's in the agreements, but the key to the white house is trying to prevent this kind of a shutdown, which could have devastating effects across all kinds of sectors of the american economy because rail is such a huge part of delivering goods from one part of the country to another. >> kelly o'donnell in washington, thank you so much. coming up, we'll be speaking to senator bob menendez on migration, immigration and so much more. also on this first day of hispanic heritage month, we'll be celebrating that. we'll take a closer look at the

major shift in the definition of who exactly is latino and who can shape the future of oufr our country. you're watching "jose diaz-balart reports" on mississippi nbc. e diaz-balart reports" on mississippi nbc. are you tired of clean clothes that just don't smell clean? what if your clothes could stay fresh for weeks? now they can. downy unstopables in-wash scent boosters keep your laundry smelling fresh waaaay longer than detergent alone. pour a cap of downy unstopables into your washing machine before each load. and enjoy fresher smelling laundry. if you want laundry to smell fresh for weeks

hispanic her talk month begins today and the population is now more crucial to american life and politics than ever. today nbc latino and telemundo published a reporting project focused on what it means to be hispanic or latino and how that's changed in the last ten years. nbc news anchor morgan radford joins us with more on those changes. it is this something that goes beyond the demographics? >> that's right. we already know that people who identify as hispanic or latino made up more than half the population growth in just the last decade. and the latinos are now nearly 20% of the total u.s. population. even while that growth was happening, there have been even bigger changes in how latinos see themselves. changes that could shape the country for years to come.

>> here in manhattan's upper west side, owner richard lam is in two worlds. >> what dish is this? >> this is pork fried rice. >> his father started this restaurant in the 1980s after living in south america where he met his wife. >> what does it mean to be latino? >> it means everything. it's my life. it's my heritage. a lot of people still get surprised when they hear me speak spanish. there's so many interracial everywhere. especially here in new york city. >> i'm very proud to be latino. >> it's not just here. based on the latest census, the latino community has grown dramatically and is more diverse than ever. nationwide, the number of hispanics reporting more than one race has skyrocketed in the last ten years from 3 million to over 20 million. while the number who identify as

only white has dropped but nearly half. for janelle, whose work focuses on culture and identity, it's a change she's seen firsthand. >> over the last 10, 5 years there's been a greater conversation around the terminology that we use. so latino has become a more visible conversation. people are pushing back and really honing in on what do we mean when we are using these terms. >> so what's changed? first, social media, where a wave of young creators are sharing their journeys. >> i started posting. i look asian, but i'm mexican. you have to deal with it. >> reporter: secondly, language. the share of u.s.-born hispanics who speak spanish at home has declined by 10% in the last four

decades with second and third generations less likely to encourage their children to speak the language. a trend a comedian who is half white and a half hispanic has seen in his own life. >> my family would speak spanglish. so i think that it's starting to become more of a normal thing. >> reporter: whether it's hispanic or latino, the flavor is reaching everyone. >> this is the chicken? >> the chicken is to die for. >> it shouldn't be surprising to everyone. everyone is interracial. >> it's time people caught on. >> it's been time people caught on. >> the data has been fascinating. there are two other interesting points here that might be useful. one is that our incredible digital team actually reached out to companies like 23andme to

get a sense of how people are digging into their own heritage and found the percentage of new customers who are of latino dissent rose by over 50%. and number two, there are an etc. mated 5 million people of hispanic ancestry who do not self-identify as hispanic and that's according to research. if politicians are trying to reach out to voters ahead of the midterm, they may have to speak to this community to learn how they describe themselves before they can actually address them. >> morgan radford, how many times have we had this conversation, which is a continuing conversation? i also want to say it's never too late to either perfect or learn spanish. it's great if you can speak two languages or more. the more languages, the better. morgan radford, every language. >> thank you. up next, health and human services secretary is going to

joining us is rick stengel. he worked on president biden's transition team and now an msnbc political analyst. what are we hearing from putin and xi out of this meeting? >> reporter: the big headline is he understands that china has questions and concerns about what's going on in ukraine. he didn't elaborate, but that comment suggests that something about what is happening either on the battlefield or diplomatically or global economy is not sitting well with the chinese leadership. that's interesting given the statements of solidarity between russia and china. he did call vladimir putin an old friend. given that things are not going

his well on the bat thefield. he's really eager to show the world, but also the russian people that he is not isolated and he's not alone on the world stage. he's towing this line when it comes to ukraine. china has been voting with russia at the u.n. it has been amplifying russian propaganda when it comes to nato. and xi has a big couple weeks coming up. the congress is going to meet. they are expected to rubber stamp an unprecedented third term for him as the leader of china. that would make him the most powerful chinese leader since chairman mow. you mentioned putin condemned what he called u.s. provocations across the taiwan straits. it's something that's very important to the chinese that russia speaks out on this. when they talk about the

provocations, think mean things like nancy pelosi coming here to taipei. a very rare visit by such a senior member of the u.s. government. and they are talking aso about a bill working through the u.s. senate right now, which would provide some $6.5 billion of military aid to taiwan. that is a bill the chinese are absolutely furious about. it's been interesting here on the ground. we have been hearing from taiwan these officials. they are learning a lot of lessons watching the ukrainians fight against russia as they think about the possibility of a chinese invasion one day here in taiwan. they say the biggest lesson is the value of asymmetric war wear. taiwan is 23 million people. china is 1.4 billion. they know they koent win a conventional war against china, but they are looking at ways to fight a gorilla warfare against any invading chinese force shs trying to hit soldiers quickly

and get out of the way before they can respond. so a lo lot ofless sons of what's going on in kraun cain being learned here in taiwan. >> fascinating the interconnectivity of things. i thank you for being with us. rick, what's your reaction to this meeting? it's so interesting to see how they are watching that meeting more closely than people in beijing maybe. >> yes, good morning. he summarized it very well. i think the key take away is what he mentioned. this cryptic comment by putin at the very beginning of the meeting saying that the chinese and xi may have questions about the ukraine operation. i cannot tell you, jose, how humiliating that was for vladimir putin to say. because what he wanted to do is come in there as this hail the conquering hero. a part that is rightfully ours

like you want to do in taiwan. he's coming in with his tail between his legs on the heels of ukraine taking a thousand square miles back of territory from what russia conquered in the beginning. it's really an embarrassing moment. it clarifies the fact that he's the little brother in the relationship. xi jinx ping is the older brother, the alpha. russia needs chinese support. china is playing a little hard to get. yes, they are forever friends, but they don't like the fact that russia seems to now be losing in ukraine. they are buying russian oil, but they are not sending russia any weapons or any chinese troops. >> so why do you think that putin would actually do that? why would he start that and be something we would hear about? >> yes, it's a very good question. and my answer is that i think he

wanted to preempt the chinese from saying anything to make it look like he was unprepared. one of the things that putin has always been good at relative to other countries and even to the united states is getting out ahead of a story. particularly a bad story. i suspect that's what he's doing. obviously, he wouldn't have done it unless there was some pressure there. so they knew that the chinese have concerns. i suspect they do. >> so interesting. rick, it's a pleasure to speak with you. up next, health and human services secretary will be with us to talk about what needs to be done to have enough mental health resources for communities of color. you're watching "jose diaz-balart reports" on msnbc. g diaz-balart reports" on msnbc. s doing on their phones? they're investing with merrill. think miss allen is texting for backup? no she's totally in charge.

million latino young people ages 12 to 1 had a major depressive episode. less than 40% received treatment for depression. how do you work to fix that disparity? >> it's absolutely true. we're hurting. and our children are hurting. more than we have ever seen before. covid has exacerbated that. one of first things we're doing if you try to reach out, 988, we'll get to you. for young people who don't usually like to use a phone, they prefer to chat or text. we provided a function for texting and chatting which has gone out the roof in terms of the response rate. so we are making sure we reach every american, including our young americans. we're also doing what we can in our schools to make sure that we don't have to wait for you to come to us. we'll go to you if you're hurting. if you have a health professional at the school, it's easier to get to them when we need them. >> and secretary, you can

actually text 988 and get information and a response through texting. >> yes, that's absolutely right the texting feature is what has grown most dramatically. >> secretary, we have ongoing covid and monkeypox crises. data shows black and brown people are not only more likely to be affected, they are also less likely to be vaccinated or given treatment. what's being done to change that? >> we're going to tackle monkeypox the way we have tackled covid. in my first year as secretary, we saw the disparity, as you just mentioned, growing in terms of who was getting a vaccine in america. we erased a 10-point disparity among whites compared to blacks and latinos. we had the same access for all communities when it came to the covid vaccine. we'll do the same for monkeypox pause we're seeing the same troubling trends occur again. so we go to where you are.

we don't wait for you to come to us. that's the most effective way to reach communities that have been left behind. >> secretary, i thank you very much for your time. it's good seeing you. >> thank you very much. once again, anyone experiencing a mental health ca anytime and they will be connected to a trained counselor who can help. it is free. it is confidential. and now in spanish [ speaking foreign language ] up next, senator bob menendez joining us withmygrant

. 54 past the hour. the senate foreign relations committee is holding a hearing to take a closer look at the biden administration's policy toward venezuela. the hearing comes as the number much venezuelan migrants showing up at the southern border continues to grow. with us now to talk about this and so many other headlines is new jersey senator bob menendez who chairs the senate foreign relations committee.

great seeing you always. let's talk about tps for example, i know that you will be at a rally this afternoon pushing for an extension of temporary protected services to people. what would the extension of tps mean for these people? >> well, it would mean the ability to continue to be protected, temporary protected status. and the reason we're giving people protected status, they are either fleeing horrific violence or natural disasters, and so i think that the biden administration should not only extend the temporary protected status that has already been given to these different countries, people from them, that are here in the united states and lawfully here under tps, but they should reclassify it so that we can extend the universe within those people who are in this country from those

countries and make sure that we deal with it in a way that is both humane and at the same time, in the interim, they can help us with our labor shortage. we have 11 million jobs that are going unfulfilled that the american economy needs the human capital to be able to deal with. we solve both problems via tpa expansion. >> you know the governors of texas, arizona, now florida sending men, women and children to other parts of the country. new york, martha's vineyard, today some migrants were left near the vice president's home in d.c. what is your reaction to this? these are people, these are men, women and children. >> well, it is outrageous. you know, they lure these people just like human traffickers do on to buses, not even knowing where they are going. and, you know, in the case of

florida, desantis who constantly makes speeches of being in solidarity with the venezuelan people and thevenezuelan in his state, but takes those fleeing the regime and sends them all over. and this is the party that also speaks about the sanctity of life. i guess they don't care about the lives of these people and how they are treated. >> senator, some of your colleagues are pushing a bill that would codify the right to same-sex marriage in the wake of the supreme court decision overturning roe v. wade. still needs ten republican votes. are you hopeful that this could actually pass? >> well, i am hopeful. i know that they are working with senator portman and collins and others in a bipartisan effort. i hope that that will yield the necessary republican votes. in america, you should not be

concerned that who you love and who you want to marry will be prohibited because of some judicial decree. and so when we see supreme court making references that owner ffel should be overturned, then we have to be concerned. and so having congress respond to that by passing the law is critical. and if republicans want to be on the wrong side of the fundamental question of do you have the right to choose who you love and who you marry, then so be it. >> and senator, i can't let you go without underlying today is the first day of hispanic heritage month. this will be your 12th celebration. i was honored to be with you maybe 11 years ago. what does it mean to you to be latino in. >> well, you know, it is part of the great heritage of our

country. most americans don't realize that hispanics were here before the country was even founded. the oldest city in america, st. augustine, florida, 500 years ago. i'm doing a title search to see if i have any property there. but led an all-spanish contingent to help george washington defeat the british. $2.5 trillion in domestic ma space spending. so it is a celebration. >> and including a latino senator from new jersey. senator menendez, thank you so much for being with us. a that wraps up the hour thank you for the privilege of your time. coming up, president biden set to deliver remarks about the tentative agreement reached with

railway labor unions. chris jansing picks it up from london. >> good thursday morning. in london thousands of mourners are lining the streets here inching forward mile by mile to westminster hall just to catch a glimpse of the queen lying in state. a line that is now 4.2 miles long, takes about nine hoep hours to get to the front. this morning we're learning new details from buckingham palace about what to expect at the funeral monday. and we'll have all of that for you coming up in a very short time. but we start with the breaking news at home, all indications are that the high stakes crisis has been averted. any moment now we will hear from president biden in the rose garden. the white house says a tentative deal has been reached to overt a railroad strike and a potential derailment of our economy. the president is giving
