now more from the clinton global initiative with former president clinton and chelsea clinton leading a discussion with students. this is over half an hour. chelsea: hello to you wherever you are in the world. thanks to each and every one of you for joining us for our first ever cgiu event. my name is michelle. i'm currently based here in brooklyn, new york. i'm part of the alumni community class of 2010 and 2011. the cgiu team is so incredibly excited and grateful as we face these globally challenging times we're still able to find a way to come together with experts and all of you for meaningful important conversations. we are disappointed we didn't have an opportunity to meet many of you in person. we have been so heartened to watch this mobilize in support of each other and our cgiu staff. we have been able to put this event together and bring a new and exciting added dimension to the cgiu experience. back in march, students were channeled to sib mitt a short video tell us about themselves, their commitment to action and their reflections on how the novel coronavirus has affected

bill clinton. and george w. bush, the one who came next, and then finally we sort of dip our toe into the obama presidency part of which pat oliphant was able to capture in his cartoons. we'll also see at least one example of pat oliphant's great gifts as a sculptor. unfortunately, we only get to see it in two dimensions. we only get to see an image of it. but it is an extraordinary work. one of our panelists, mary kay carey can actually tell us something about that sculptor and the president who it portrays. mary kate is a senior fellow at the miller center. she has been teaching this year in the politics department of the university. she was a speechwriter and communication specialist of all sorts in 1988 and the george bush presidency. director of the miller center and member of the history department here, held prominent positions in both bush administrations. both george and george w. administrations and probably did other things that i'm not even aware of that are worth noting. then chris lo a senior here

clinton for many years. i think it's very funny, from the other side of the aisle, i think it's very funny. >> at this time, very, very early in the battle for the 2008 democratic nomination which was a year and a half yet to be decided, there was sort of uncertainty about obama, among many african-americans. not so much about him per se. although he was a relatively new figure on the national stage. but rather, could an african-american be elected president in the united states of america. and obama, as chris pointed out, did not run as jesse jackson had run, for example. as essentially the candidate of black america. obama ran in a more transcendent way but what validated him among many black voters and you see this reflected in the polling over the month is when he won the iowa caucuses. because the message to african-american voters in states like south carolina in the democratic party they cons stated a majority was white people will vote for this guy. he could actually win. and that, i think had a lot

clinton: sure. i am concerned of the people that are incarcerated, and i also think of the detention centers. we are calling for the early release of people, but i did not want to see people just released into the community, they are tested, and, you know, we are aware of that. so i think we have to think about that as well, as well as protective gear for folks who are the essential workers. and then the data. we need to have the data, because right now, that death rate is basically anecdotal. the cdc is either -- and the doctor might know about this -- is either not taking the -- not compiling the data, or they are not disseminating it, but we definitely need to have it, to have the data. and not just the death rate, the infection rate, the hospital rate, etc., the whole picture. dr. goosby: you are absolutely right, congresswoman, and i really did not want to imply with equal morbidities that that was some explanation for why african-american and hispanic communities were disproportionately impact

clinton. is it a partisan thing? is it that republicans they think they're not smart enough to do it on their own? how you explain this? >> you just answered the question. (laughs). >> that's too easy. i did not work with bill clinton. barack obama, you can say myth many things about him. very smart, very very smart. very professorial. clearly had his hands on a lot of different things. it is also, part of it is the ethos of white houses, or we could talk a little more about this. we have a mantra no trauma obama. we did not leak, we did not write books to laugh at him. it was all about what was doing what was best for the president. it's not to say that there were not people who were strong advisers before him that just may never come out. this next one is -- this one is a little harsh. >> we are now going backwards in time. this is july of four. punk in the bottom right hand corner has nothing to say. i think you can read the caption in the upper right hand. it is bush who is wearing that wh

and chelsea clinton. i wish you the best for the conference, and i look forward to catching up with you here in edinburgh a year delayed, but nevertheless, we think we have a great deal to offer to our --itors and to the capital visitors in the capital of scotland. all the best to you. william jefferson clinton, founder and board chair of the clinton foundation and 42nd ,resident of the united states and andrew cuomo, governor of new york. william: governor cuomo, as you know, you are talking to about -- pres. clinton: governor cuomo, as you know, you are talking to hundreds of students [indiscernible] who like a lot of people have been dislocated and at the beginning of the epidemic, some in the middle, some locally at and a lot of us have been profoundly impressed by the leadership you have exhibited, both by getting on top of it, and working through the problems and telling people you understood them. [indiscernible] in your career, what do you think best prepare you for this? gov. cuomo: mr. president

clinton: i am clint gardner, clinton gardner. i was born in new york city, 1922. >> what was life like growing up? clinton: my family moved to larchmont, new york when i was a baby. i was raised their, went to the town north of larchmont for junior high. after ninth-grade, went down to exeter and had three years there. after that i entered dartmouth in the fall of 1940 and once my freshman year was behind me, it was apparent by that time that we were not yet in the war, we might be drawn into it because the germans were sinking ships in the atlantic including american ships. britain was in bad shape. looked like if we did not get in, the nazis would take over europe and south america. so i was unsure whether i wanted to volunteer or wait to be drafted. i decided i would volunteer, which amusingly enough give you a slightly different army serial number than if you were drafted. the west point officers, recent graduates from training but they were training us in officer candidate school. they tended to look with favor -- they didn'

clinton doesn't have a genetic capability.gets into the campaign, she's going be the subject of attention in the same way that she announced she's going to do the endorsement. she is politically in a student in the way she handles these things, and continues to prove that over and over again. >> harris: i want to give jason a chance to respond to that. >> jason: i have to disagree with a couple things. number one, when you look at pennsylvania, for example, president troupe went to pennsylvania at bunch times in 2018 and went out for lou barletta. he got trounced by 600,000 votes. i'm not sure that pennsylvania is going to be a lock just because hillary clinton showed up, or that you're going to be able to go at those working-class voters, especially when you're going to have an economic catastrophe with 20% unemployment, and many of those will be working-class workers and some of those rust belt states. so i'm not so sure it's that strong an argument. the other thing i would say is, when you look at hillary clinton, she stepp

husband, former president bill clinton raped her in 1978.t the time broderick asked if she had the right to be believed too. now clinton is facing the same question from former senate staffer tara reid who claims joe biden sexually assaulted her in 1993. clinton offered her endorsement of biden tuesday. >> one of the hallmarks of your presidency the a commitment to the kind of transparency that will hopefully rebuild trust. trust is the glue that holds democracy together. >> reporter: read had strong words for clinton telling fox news hillary clinton has a history of enabling powerful men to cover up sexual predatory behaviors and inappropriate sexual misconduct and adding i will not be smeared, dismissed or ignored. although biden is not address the claim personally his campaign denies the allegations. actress turned activist alyssa milano to criticism from other sexual assault survivors for supporting biden, among them actress rose mcgowan. now she tweets i want tara like any other survivor to have the space to be heard and seen without be

host: from 25 years ago, president clinton joining us from oklahoma city is kerry watkins. we thank you for joining us. >> thank you for having me. host: walk us through the events of 25 years ago. what happened? >> it was a spring morning. people went about their business. downtown andarade people began to assemble likely what any facility throughout the country and just before 9:00, a truck pulled up, a bomb was detonated, and over 600 were killed. forever. was changed host: timothy mcveigh was later convicted and sentenced to death with his involvement. let's go back to the events that led to his decision to bomb this particular building. really dating back to 1992 with ruby ridge and the siege in waco. just over an hour later, he was pulled over and arrested. why did these instances in ruby ridge and waco set off timothy mcveigh? frustratedhe was with how the government handle things and instead of going through systems already in place. , he and his friends thought it would be easier to make a statement. he did knock at the army and there are numerous reasons someone m

bill clinton -- i think it's relevant to this, bill clinton always said the biggest thing that's alwaysreciated in politics is ids. if you understood ideas, you could make politics. i used to say this to my kids, this is true about everybody but is very true for mayors, governors and president. you have this idea -- you need own idea big enough to know what you are doing and ruthless enough to get it done. [applause] i added the ruthless part. [laughter] if you go back and think of our great president -- >> what you write about. >> s. kennedy, lincoln, roosevelt, etc. lincoln does not start as an abolitionist. they think is to moderate, always comprising, he always knew how far he could get ahead but not outrun public opinion. he's constantly doing policies but at the end of the day, he moves slavery and withdraws. he doesn't deal with that. he doesn't have any weight to hold so the battle because he's going to be seen as a loser who has to go and slavery as a way to end war. you have to be knowing why you do what you do and thank you got to be tough enough to see it through. clinton, a

clinton: thank you. governor newsom, ty for -- thank you for joining us and thank you for your extraordinary leadership during this covid-19 crisis. i would like to begin with the ranked thist was week in the press, when you and there, triede out to file a joint plan to reopen the economy. i would like to tell everyone else around america and the world that that is important to them and how california's economy [indiscernible] faster than the u.s. as a whole was growing. so we need you back, but you cannot really get back and let you know your people are going to be safe. keep in mind we have 800 students here from all around the world from about 100 countries. they are in a different situation, but they all went california back. one of the criteria is that you and your colleagues are going to to determine reopening the economy? gov. newsom: what you said is true, that 2.8% is average gdp growth over the last five years. 24.1 $4r we ran at billion operating surplus, and we are really proud of california'

but the blemish remained on clinton's record of the impeachment. by the way i think that blemish will remain on president trump's record to even though you can argue it is partisan. certainly it was but it is in the history books. what happens with clinton, is that by the end of his presidency he is persuaded the country that his public leadership as president was more important in evaluating him that his private behavior. a lot of people felt he was a scoundrel. by the end of his presidency is impeached and acquitted, his popularity goes up, he becomes a popular president again because people feel well, i guess we can't have the president as a role model anymore. so the outcome of his big crisis is a fundamental difference of perception we have had in the presidency, we separate the public president from the private president. that's a big change for us because americans have one of the president to be a role model for most of our history. a lot of presidents have done what clinton did but it's kept quiet. now it's different. that's a big change.

>> on benghazi that was more of a hillary clinton thing. i think president obama could have stepped in. this was a situation where did hillary clinton allow our diplomats and our americans in this benghazi situation to be stranded and killed without trying to rescue them? she didn't move quickly enough it i think a such a fast-moving situation, obama, maybe he should've jumped in personally but he deferred to hillary clinton as secretary of state and letter handle it. that's still a big it is so some of hillary clinton, that she didn't take action to save our people and they were under attack in benghazi. so that's, there's a lot more to say about it but just in the interest of time, i think president obama just to send his going to let hillary clinton handle that. he didn't intervene. he let hillary clinton as secretary of state deal with this. still a big criticism of her among conservatives and republicans. presidents obama's relation with valerie jarrett very, very close. they have been very, very close in chicago where he came up as a

i would say one thing about bill clinton. in 1995 he stood up and said "as many tomorrows as it takes." he says he is still with us. you know, what i have seen of bill clinton, he did not win oklahoma. i don't think he won one county in oklahoma. but he stood with us. he is a big friend of survivors and first responders and i would never criticize the work bill clinton has done on our behalf. he has been remarkable to the city. >> in fact, four days after theo bombing he traveled to c oklahoa city and had these remarks. >> yesterday, hillary and i had the privilege of speakingfede of children of other federal employees, children like th ose whthose who were lost and one little girl said something we nev will never forget. she said, "we should all plant a tree in memory of thehe planee children." so, this morning, before we got on the plane to cf come here at the white house, we planted that tree in honor of the children of oklahoma. [applause] it was a dogwood, with its wonderful spring flower and its deep,ring endurig roots.

president clinton, it's a sad case in some ways. he was considered the best politician of his generation initially to the campaign. not the least of reasons because he could talk his way out of everything. he was proud of that. there are many, many stories about clinton would say when i am in a roomful of people, i will go to the person who i think hates me the most i want to convert them. i want to persuade them to support me. he would go right for that nation. but i'm getting out, the story when i talk about that within "me too" movement. that does not work. i have this great anxiety and stress so i need to pray on this in turn. monica lewinsky has changed her views on this too. initially she was much less willing to criticize president clinton. now she saying he was the most powerful man in the world and i was enthralled he's paying attention to me i'm 22 years old. so he handled that in just about the worst way he could. he was impeached over it. but as i say, those times were different and i don't think it would work today. i d

joe biden with a surprise gu hillary clinton endorsing biden. here's mary bruce. >> reporter: on the virtual campaign trail today, joe biden got a boost from hillary clinton. >> and i'm really thrilled to have my friend, the former senator and former secretary of state, and a woman who should be president of the united states right now. >> reporter: a polarizing but powerful figure, clinton won the popular vote in 2016 and has a loyal following. she and biden go way back. they've worked together for 25 years. as vice president and secretary of state, they met once a week. a private breakfast every tuesday. clinton today recalling their family ties back in scranton, pennsylvania. >> and my grandfather and then my father grew up in a house on diamond avenue, and while the rodhams were living on diamond avenue, the bidens were over on north washington street. >> reporter: today she officially endorsed her old friend. >> i am thrilled to be part of your campaign. >> reporter: without saying her former rival's name, clinton had a clear message for pr

clinton said, "well, women don't want her." justice ginsburg: i had written a comment on roe v. wade, and it was not 100% applauding that decision. ♪ david: you won a number of cases for the aclu on gender discrimination and became quite well-known. you later taught at columbia. but you were asked to go on to the u.s. court of appeals, the district of columbia, by president carter. were you surprised to get that appointment? did you want to be a judge, or were you happy to be a professor? justice ginsburg: president carter deserves enormous credit for what the federal bench looks like today. when he became president, he noticed that the federal judges all looked like him. that is, they were all white and they were all male. and carter appreciated that that is not how the great united states looks. so he was determined to put women and members of minority groups on the federal courts in numbers, not as one at a time curiosities. i think he appointed over 25 women to district court judgeships and 11 women to courts of appeals, an

bill clinton supported the neo conservatives, clinton went to work for them. he pulls together all the wings of the republican party and then campaigns. he has no trouble winning at all, winning the republican nomination. then, running against gore, he goes against the clinton and lewinsky stand scandal. he says he will bring honor and dignity back to america. it was enough not to win the majority of the country. he created a deadlock in the electoral college and supreme battle. it wasn't as the there was a overwhelming victory. not at all. >> as you look back at the gore versus bush decision, the fact that he ended up winning the electoral votes he needed enough the popular vote, what is your opinion of what happened during that period? >> i think it was a travesty. i've covered the supreme court for eight years. one thing that i thought i learned is that the court of that era and the conservatives on the court of that era, i am talking about people like just rehnquist were in favor of federalism state rights. i thought when the florida supreme court, based o

this is the big crisis for bill clinton. monica lewinsky, sex and live scandal. he had an affair with his youngintern . write about it under oath so he had handled it very badly. if he had admitted it, he probably could have been okay but he did not. he liedabout it . this is the case, that famous press conference he had. with hillary there. and he's saying i did not have sexual relations with that woman missed lewinsky. that's exactly what he said but that was a lie, he did and he was caught and there were all kinds of whole year that he was investigated and under impeachment proceedings, as a journalist i was covering things i never dreamed that i would be covering ever in my career about the president of the united states and his behavior with this young woman. just unbelievable and so many of his advisers felt betrayed you a felt he had taken this fundamental risk and he was so self-indulgent to risk his presidency, the job he had wanted all his life for something that ended up being as salacious and dangerous as what he did. he was impeached. of course impea

let's talk about the endorsement of hillary clinton, joe biden, terry talking about that, slowly clinton has a history of enabling power meant to cover perceptual predatory behaviors and an inappropriate sexual misconduct. we don't need that for this country. what does this do? when you see this become political in this way and you see people run from it when it hurts their party what does it do to the credibility of the me too movement? i think a lot of people that thought hard in me too would be even more angry about this than republicans are. >> that is the real damage and what many people were calling during this movement to say we cannot throw out the presumption of innocence but we need to weigh allegations they come in a fair manner and that is what people are sick and tired of. where's the fairness? where's the equality under the law. we haven't had that with the media hurling false allegations against donald trump or two years accusing collusion with russia when it was actually hillary and the dnc hurling false allegations that brett kavanaugh, not a single shred of evidence and

and hillary clinton has rediscovered the value of skepticism and a due process. why? two words, tara reid. that's a former biden staffer who alleges that biden sexually assaulted her. no, not sexually harassed but assaulted physically. hillary clinton didn't just accuse up that but she gushed about biden's character.

clinton added think all chief executives are capable, but clinton taught me to have a northstar, and i've been immersed myself in policy from him, which is why this book any of the book i wrote all about policy, that you have to have ideas to really aluminate what you're going to do. then you have to be really tough enough to see the ideas all the way through. there's things i will talk as a galante about chicago that were those very influential kind of mentor that he was for me but above that speed is its it's interesting because you said i should say and interesting not but, and it's interesting that you say as the mayor you actually have to have ideas. you have to get things done. there is nowhere to hide. people are there every minute. >> they will come to your home and find you. >> and they did, right? >> they know where you are. >> so you say the future of society right now around the world, is with mayors and cities. explain the premise for everyon everyone. >> well look, the basic premise of the book is what also i ran also i believe in my home career until this moment is abo

clinton said his accuser had to be believed. >> look.ed as much of her testimony as i could do. i found her very credible. i found her willingness toei sai don't remember this but i . >> tucker: if you were probably too transfixed by hillary clinton to notice the guy next to her, joe biden i think he fell asleep a couple of times in the middle of that. he's probably staying up late right now figuring out how shaken snatch the nomination from him. jeanine pirro joins us tonight. this is almost too easy but i have to get review of this. and now she thinks we should pause before judging? >> you know, hillary clinton endorsing joe biden when he's being accused of, as you say, not sexual harassment but sexual assault, it's like the kiss of death. the woman is literally a standard-bearer, of sexual predators. i was an immediate outcry of her laughing about the who a 12-year-old into a coma or her emails that were found on anthony weiner's laptop or jeffrey epstein was hanging out with weinstein when everyone in hollywood knew what was going on

we all know of this is, this is the big crisis for bill clinton. the monica lewinsky and life scandal he had an affair this young intern, lied about under oath, so he handles it very badly. if he had admitted it, he probably could have been okay, but he did not, he lied about it. this is the case with the famous press conference he had, with hillary there, he said i did not have sexual relations with that woman, ms. lewinsky, that's exactly what he said but that was a lie he did. he was caught. they were all kinds of -- that whole year he was investigated and under impeachment proceedings, as a journalist i was covering things i never dreamed i would be covering, ever in my career about the president of the united states and his behavior with this young woman. just unbelievable and so many felt betrayed, they felt he had taken this fundamental risk and was so self-indulgent to risk his presidency, job he wanted all his life something ending up as salacious and dangerous as what he did. he was impeached, course impeachment is a charge, it's what the

president clinton, governor and mrs. keating, led the state through our darkest hour and in collaboration it didn't matter if you were republican or democrat, red, blue, they just worked together. that was the spirit we're very proud of, that we need to work to keep replicating today. it was thought about, discussed, a memorial task force was appointed, a 350 member task force led by bob johnson. appointed by the mayor and the governor and began to look at not what the site look like but what do we want the site to become, what do we want the site to feel like. it took from july to crafting the mission statement adopted in march of 1996 and then the first anniversary happened and then began the process of would we put a memorial here and what would -- how would we go about that. commenced an international design competition from 23 different countries and narrowed it down to the top five. two state process had families, survivors, first responders involved in both stages of judging. professional designers, architects, ur

clinton said his accuser had to be believed. >> look.atched as much of her testimony as i could do. i found her very credible. i found her willingness to say i don't remember this but i remember that to be very convincing. >> tucker: well, you know things change. and hillary clinton has rediscovered the value of skepticism and a due process. why? two words, tara reid. that's a former biden staffer who alleges that biden sexually assaulted her. no, not sexually harassed but assaulted physically. hillary clinton didn't just accuse up that but she gushed about biden's character. >> we need a leader and president like joe biden. i also know about joe the person. i've seen him up close and personal now for many years. we have a lot of the same values in common, it's a kind of compassion and caring that we need from our president and which joe biden has been exemplifying throughout his entire life. >> tucker: if you were probably too transfixed by hillary clinton to notice the guy next to her, joe biden i think he fell asleep a couple of times

then it was john travolta, that's travolta playing the clinton role, showing the mastery that clintoning people. does it continue? how did you respond to the survey question this week at smerconish.com here's what we were asking, will coronavirus kill the handshake? survey says -- wow, very close with a lot of voting. we're evenly divided. 52% say yes. here's some of what else came in during the course of the program. what else do we have from social media? smerconish how will dating look, no kisses, no hugs? ask -- >> yeah, i'm long out of that game but i was thinking, when senator cassidy was talking about creating a registry, some people may only want to date if you're in the registry and you have a clean bill of health. here's another one from social media. what else do we have? the only thing a handshake does is hurt arthritic hands and reveal wishy/washy personalities. i was raised like pink floyd, firm hand shake, look in the eyes and an easy smile as they sing in, i think "dogs". i've found it to be a valuable tool to size somebody up, maybe it goes by the wayside. happy passo

voted for hillary clinton. a staunch supporter of barack obama. so much so she never went public with his damning information about his running mate. now the allegations has been corroborated now by at least four individuals that she confided in shortly after the incident in 1993. her mother even calling into "larry king live" at the time to ask for advice. tara reade has filed a criminal calling for joe biden to release records from his senate office which she believes will contain a copy of her official complaint of the incident. is joe going to be transparent or release those records or are they being hillary, as we speak, magically bleached and disappearing. will anybody in the democratic party or themo mob in the media, all these democratic potential vpen candidates this weekend, they weren't asked a question about it. are they going to ask him about these accusations? yesterday we reached out for comment from biden's potential, running mate. says he's picking a woman. many have not addressed reade's allegations directly but including senator

they were erased, very much like the clinton hard drives in the e-mail case.unusual for an intelligence asset, particularly one who was working with the fbi, to suddenly destroy all of his evidence while the investigation he prompted was still ongoing. normally you would preserve that evidence. so most -- by his own testimony, it's gone, right? and so we don't know exactly, you know, what did people tell him about susan rice's knowledge? those written notes are gone, and now all we have are christopher steele's recollection. his recollection was when he was directed to go to the state department, he was told that susan rice may have known and was apparently aware of his research project. that's a brand new piece of information, and it leads to a whole new area of inquiry for the congressional committees looking at this. lou: john solomon, thank you very much, as always. good to see you. john solomon, "just the news." >>> up next, more on the promising results in the trials of the antiviral drug remdesivir. we'll be talking with dr. mark rupp from the universit

in 2016 if they didn't like trump and didn't like clinton they stayed away from clinton.ow at least they don't like either trump or biden they are breaking to biden. if that keeps up it could make the difference. >>> still ahead, president trump is ordering meat processing plants to stay open. unions are pushing back saying the orders put workers at unnecessary risk. one of those union leaders jones us next. don't go away. us next. don't go away. wow, that's... and now the progressive commercial halftime show, featuring smash mouth. ♪ hey now, you're an all star ♪ get your game on, go play thank you! goodnight!

not nearly as unpopular as hillary clinton was in these states. question, of course, it's april. can it hold until november for biden? >> and we saw this in some of the primary results in the exit polling for the primaries we were able to have before this pandemic hit. steve, i'm really interested to know how the president's performance right now is playing in the polls. how something like -- suggesting injecting bleach into your lungs is playing with voters. he talks about americans not wanting to elect somebody who is incompetent. how are voters seeing his response and voters particularly in places, i was reading about arizona and texas, two states that suddenly people are worried about potentially turning blue because donald trump is not as favorable there as he might be under different circumstances. >> yeah, i mean, i guess the answer is, just look at the polls. we've seen it nationally. we've seen it in the individual states. we've seen it change over the course of the last few weeks as this pandemic in trump's response to it has taken cente

>> with benghazi, that was more hillary clinton. i think he could have stepped i in. this is a situation did hillary clinton allow our diplomats and americans in the benghazi situation to be stranded and killed without trying to rescue them? she did not move quickly enough. i think it was a fast-moving situation mom one - - maybe he should have stepped in but he let her handle it is secretary of state but that is a big criticism of hillary clinton she did not take action to save our people when they were under attack in benghazi. there is a lot more to say about it but just in the interest of time to my thing president obama decided he would let hillary clinton handle that and did not intervene. he let secretary of state deal with this. but still a big criticism of her among conservatives and republicans. now obama's relations with very on - - valerie jarrett is very close he came up as a political figure. actually initially a friend of michelle obama and became a friend of his. she became a senior white house advisor. actually didn't get the attention she should have

clinton: thank you so much, joe. it's a real pleasure to be here with you and to be part of this very important discussion and i am thrilled to be part of your campaign to not only endorse you, but to help highlight a lot of the issues that are at stake in this presidential election. as you just so rightly said, this terrible pandemic we are hits a lot ofugh americans much harder than others, we've seen it firsthand in hospitalizations and unfortunately fatalities. we've also seen it when we look at the pictures of those people on the front lines. workersll health care in america are women. one out of three jobs held by women in our country has been classified as essential. affectsan issue that all of us. young and old from every walk of life. it is having disproportionate onact on the front lines women caring for others, on women holding down the home as we go through this together. i want to add my voice to the many who have endorsed you to be our president. just think of what a difference it would make right now i
