congressman clyburn did get the shot. because they need trusted places to share the right message for unit and also about stories of adverse reaction. it will take somebody to get our -- get sick, have a fever, or whatever. that's where the hesitancy comes from. this widespread culturally invitation by trusted messengers. that helps in mitigating that trust issue or that concern issue regarding how safe the vaccine is. there is also, which is not new, a lack of adequate transportation in the rural areas. and recently, the example is -- and i know mississippi, as well -- they called to say that they can't get through. so, is not just having transportation, but having good roads, as well, to travel on. additionally, the lack of internet access to make appointments through them. and some of our rural areas have challenges. even with internet access, we have some that are just not comfortable using the internet . my 95-year-old mom is an example. and even accessing by telephone , for many, have proven unsuccessful. either i d

clyburn. representative clyburn: thank you, mr. leader. thank you, madam chairman. mr. chairman, thank you for the tremendous work you have given to this effort, as we just heard, over 70% of the american people are in favor of this plan. earlier this week, 170 ceos had written a letter to the congress, asking that we test this plan. the vast majority, 56% of small businesses, have asked us to please pass this plan. the american rescue plan builds a foundation for coordinated public-private partnerships, and a compassionate response to the needs of families and communities, for us to get beyond this pandemic. i feel certain we are going to pass this will tonight in a solid way, and i hope that the senate will also respond to this with a solid response so that the american people can begin to feel better about themselves and their futures. i think i yield back to you, madam speaker. [laughter] i will gladly entertain your questions, and the speaker will answer them. [laughter] speaker pelosi: t

clyburn: thank you very much, madam speaker. i thank the gentleman from maryland for yielding me this time. madam speaker, i rise today in support of h.r. 264, which will designate the post office located on charlotte street in georgetown, south carolina, as the joseph hayne rainey post office building. i am proud to join with the bill's lead sponsor, congressman tom rice, and the other members of the south carolina congressional delegation in co-sponsoring this important legislation. this action builds on our efforts in the last congress to honor the life and legacy of joseph rainey, by naming h. 150, the former house committee on indian affairs room in the cap top -- capitol in his honor. there are just two of the long -- those are -- these are just two of the long overdue actions needed to amplify the historical significance of the first african-american to serve in the united states house of representatives. congressman rainey was a trailblazer whose story and place in history has been overlooked. as a former history teacher

joining me now is the house majority whip, congressman jim clyburn, democrat of south carolina. thank you for being with us, mr. congressman. >> thank you very much for having me. >> let me ask you this. 45 republican senators have already voted to dismiss the impeachment, claiming the trial is unconstitutional because trump has already left office. do you believe any of those republicans who voted to dismiss might turn around and vote to convict? and if not, what is the point in your opinion of these proceedings? >> well, first of all, i do believe that it's a possibility that some of them will change their minds and vote to convict. now, there question is whether or not we'll get to the number 17. which is what we need. that means we'll need 12 more to change their minds, and i'm not too sure that can occur. but i was not of the belief that 56 of the american people as of today would say that he deserves being convicted. and if that's true, and i think we're going to see a pretty prolific case put on by the managers, and so we may get more to vote that way. but i don't think w

joining me now, congressman jim clyburn.t people anticipated if biden became the nominee and president, there may be a fractional war between the left and the center in the democratic party. that has not happened. one headline says progressives have said, we've learned to love the guy. his approval ratings are high, his policies are popular, people support the dreamers getting citizenship, the stimulus payments, the $1.9 trillion relief bill that just cleared another hurdle in the senate, so far, so good, right? do you see any problems in this pretty good narrative so far? >> thank you very much for having me, joy. absolutely. i have always expressed great admiration, great respect, even love for joe biden. and you may recall, when i made that endorsement that everybody talks about, i said at the time. i know joe, we know joe. but most importantly, joe knows us. and i think the vast majority of the american people are beginning to see that joe biden knows the people of this country. and he has that heart, and he will do what

joining me now is democratic majority whip and the dean of the south carolina delegation, jim clyburnessman, thanks for being with us. i'm just wondering what you think of what your former governor nikki haley said. how much weight do you put in it? >> first of all, thank you very much for having me. well, we often say down here in the south, better late than never. and i suspect that that may apply here. but i think you're right this morning when you said that this is an incident of nikki haley breaking with nikki haley. just two or three weeks ago, she was admonishing us to leave the man alone. now she is saying, we shouldn't have followed him. well, that's all we've been saying all the time. this man does not deserve to be followed. now you have to wait and see whether or not this break means anything. >> what does it tell you about the potential for other republicans or other people who have been supporters of the president to turn their backs on him, at least politically, even after the impeachment trial? >> well, you know, i watched very intently, especially on yesterday as the

black people are jim clyburn, white america is joe biden .we've been saving you from the beginning. when jim clyburn said we know joe, we appreciate joe but much better, joe knows us. this is the beauty of who we are as a people. when we know america and at your best we know that you can find a way to know your selves well enough to accept and love us. that's my hope and i continue to invest in it despite the negativity that i see. ithink we can overcome . >> thank you thank you so much. i think i can say for the whole audience that we be happy to stay here much longer and hear you, doctor dyson. i want to thank both of you for presenting with us tonight and attending to the heart and soul of america as you have. thank you for your work and everything that you do. i want to thank the audience here as well for joining us tonight. i want to encourage you to purchase a copy of doctor dyson's book . support a local bookstore if you can. the link we havehere goes to the bookshops, amazon alternatives . but support your local stores if you can. i a

i think the most important thing here is what we just heard nancy pelosi and congressman clyburn say. the people's house is doing the people's business, especially the democrats there, and the people's business is working on not just getting the american rescue plan over the legislative goal line, that's so important because there's so much more in here than the minimum wage. but making sure that the president and the congress find a way forward on the minimum wage as well. given the parliamentarian's decision, you know, it looks like it's going to come out of the bill, as she said that. doesn't mean this fight is over. president biden is committed to making sure that essential workers who have kept this country going through this pandemic crisis, this joint health care and economic crisis, get paid a fair wage, and that fair wage in his view is $15 an hour, and he has never wavered from that point. >> ron klain was on with joy reid the other night and he said before the parliamentarian ruled that vice president harris would not attempt to overrule the parliamentarian's call on this o

and there's also a proposal on the table by clyburn, representative clyburn on the house side, saying let's whip up our members and see if we can put a standalone bill for the minimum wage increase at a later date. so we are not giving up on that fight. they are looking at this passage of potentially this massive bill. the date, march 14th, is really the goal here. that is when unemployment benefits run out for 11 million americans. they want that on the president's desk by then. >> and on the minimum wage provision, it's not that a sizable majority of lawmakers don't want a minimum wage increase. it's the $15 portion. so perhaps the next legislation or proposal that includes and is directly about the minimum wage increase, it might mean $10 or $12, but we'll see how that goes. so joe johns at the white house, that was a very brief statement coming from the president. perhaps just like a comma, knowing that there is still a long way to go on the road for this legislation and for his signature, possibly by mid-march. >> reporter: speaking to people here at the white house, fred, i can

congressman jim clyburn saying earlier that he does expect some democrat may vote against it. they can afford to lose up to three votes but that he does expect it to be pass, that notwithstanding, that it will continue to go on. one interesting thing to note. you mentioned the senate parliamentarian, of course, ruling that that $15 minimum wage provision cannot be included on the senate side. it will be in this house bill because this is coming from the house. it will then get kicked over to the senate upon its passage once that happens, and that's where that will all play out and the senate will decide kind of how they want to move forward with everything. erica? >> but that's the next step, of course. first we've got to get through tonight and the long night that you have ahead, my friend. jessica, thank you. >>> happening right now. an fda advisory panel about to vote on whether to recommend emergency use authorization for johnson & johnson's single-dose vaccine. if authorized this would be the third vaccine available in the u.s. first shots would likely be in arms next wee

that means, according to jim clyburn, house majority whip, they can only lose three votes total. we expect them to lose one, maybe two, perhaps even three, but that's it. still, democratic leaders are confident, they believe they have the votes and will get it through. and despite the concerns about the senate parliamentarian's ruling that this will be stripped out, the $15 minimum wage will be stripped out, they're still including that in this bill because their party, mostly on the left, are pushing this and are strongly behind the $15 minimum wage. that will be part of this larger $1.9 trillion package that affects virtually all aspects of the economy. but then the tough part will begin after this very narrow vote when the senate will strip that out and they'll have to figure out whether they get 50 votes in the senate to get it through. you need 50 democrats to join hands and vote for this and kamala harris, the vice president, breaking the tie, getting it through the senate next week, and all the anticipation and hope for the democrats to get this done by march 14th, that's

only reason they held it was because senator mcconnell wouldn't accept the article, representative clyburn made clear that they had considered holding the articles for over 100 days to provide president biden with a clear pathway to implement his agenda. our constitution and any basic sense of fairness require that every legal process with significant consequences for a person's life, including impeachment requires due process under the law which includes fact-finding and the establishment of a legitimate evidentiary record with an appropriate foundation. even last year's impeachment followed committee hearings and months of examination and investigation by the house. here, president trump and his counsel were given no opportunity to review evidence or question its propriety. the rush to judgment for a snap impeachment in this case was just one example of the denial of due process. another, perhaps even more vitally significant example was the denial of any opportunity ever to test the integrity of the evidence offered against donald j. trump in a proceeding seeking to bar him from ever ho

but jim clyburn seems to have hinted he would like to see something that's more 50/50.tic leaders on the same page here? >> reporter: that's always a good question and senator coons, who is not a member of relationship, but is one of the more moderate members, also said earlier today on tv that he would like to see a 50/50 split. so pelosi is, today, trying to spin it in the sense by saying we didn't say it's seven democrats and four republicans, we're saying that democrats get to appoint seven seats, republicans get to appoint four seats. hinting that perhaps biden will appoint or democrats will appoint independents, or maybe even republicans to the board. but she's saying that that is really the easy part and she's saying that that's something that can be easily negotiable. what she's starting to focus on is the scope and that's what we heard from senate -- or minority leader mitch mcconnell on the senate floor yesterday when he suggested that perhaps, if violent extremism is part of this commission, then perhaps violent extremism, which what he is calling is happened

house majority whip jim clyburn telling me they can't lose more than three democrats in order to get this through, and they are expecting to lose one, maybe two democrats. this is expected to still pass tonight, according to democratic leaders, but perhaps by the narrowest of margins. and the vote can go late into the night. it's unclear exactly when it could happen. this proposal, massive. $1.9 trillion could impact virtually all aspects of the u.s. economy from small businesses to states and cities to individuals who could get relief checks soon, as well as extension of jobless benefits. democrats have the deadline of march 14th to get something on to joe biden's desk, but they still need to go through the legislative process. tonight will be the first step, getting it through the house. then it will go into the senate next week. that's when the senate will strip out that $15 minimum wage because it was ruled out of order by the senate's parliamentarian, not following the district budget rules needed to pass the bill through the process they're using in that chamber. behind the sce

impeachment manager one of the issues that i was really championing with abigail spamberg and james clyburnt those students who don't have broad band, who aren't able to do virtual learning, what are we going to do about those students in both urban areas, where people are underserved as well as rural areas. so for a lot of us we're going to continue the work. while at the same time ensuring through our democratic process and through the commission that speaker pelosi is putting together, that what happened on january 6th doesn't happen again. >> well let's talk about how you're going to do that with republicans. and how you read their next move. because we've already seen senator minority leader mitch mcconnell on saturday made a scathing speech on the senate floor after he voted to acquit. he went after the former president you could say even more harshly than some of your fellow impeachment managers did yet today he's out with an op-ed defending his decision to vote to acquit where he wrote this i was as outraged as any member of congress but senators take our oaths, our job wasn't to fi

i'm sure congressman clyburn would agree with me as well. >> i'm sure he would. good to see you and hope you come back soon. thank you for your time. >> good to see you, craig. >>> the french quarter in new orleans typically is rocking and rolling, fat tuesday, right? it's empty this mardi gras. we're going to still go there live, though, to see how the virus has changed the celebrations and it's not just the parties. first up, the pandemic having a major impact on dating, apparently. and it's led to a trend called getting fauci'ed. the moumts dr. fauci found out his name had become a new dating term. >> there's a term in dating now called fauciing someone. do you know what that means? >> what does it mean? >> it means cutting off a relationship if you don't think that that other person is serious enough about social distancing and taking the pandemic seriously. like i fauci'ed that guy. >> i'm going to fauci you. ♪♪ this is what community looks like. ♪♪ caring for each other, ♪♪ protecting each other. ♪♪ and as the covid vaccine rolls out, we'll be ready to admi

jim clyburn's position on all this stuff that we are talking about. he's probably one of the most powerful people of color that we know in this whole process. i've got two school board members who supposedly referenced all the things that we talked about. allow people to run because of our conditions and behave like they don't know what our conditions are. so, part of our discussion is making sure we look at the condition of those running for public office that will be in the position to talk about these policy needs we have. also, make sure if they don't do what they are supposed to do, we punish them. i think the pandemic, as the keisha pointed out, provided us with an awesome opportunity to be involved going forward. we were the only ones who did not support going back to school. i refuse sending children that was murdering before the pandemic. we came up with an arrangement. at the end of the day, we have an obligation to take full advantage of this opportunity. curtis: i believe dr. king was right. it is up to us, all of us for every generation t

sources tell nbc news that house speaker nancy pelosi, majority leader steny hoyer, majority whip jim clyburneral other committee chairs will meet with president biden. okay, that's all house side. so maybe the senators are going to take a nap. it comes days after senate republicans separately discussed the upcoming bill at the white house. so, we are in the process of kicking off what could end up being something that democrats push through with only votes from their own party. >>> meanwhile, a little good news. johnson & johnson has applied to the food and drug administration for emergency use authorization for its experimental covid-19 vaccine. the fda could grant authorization in the coming weeks, and if approved, this would be the third vaccine approved for use in the united states, joining the pfizer and moderna shots. the johnson & johnson vaccine will only require one shot, and it can be stored with basic refrigeration. although studies looking into the effectiveness of a potential booster shot are still going on. in clinical trials, the vaccine showed to be 72% effective against mode
