developers are going to build affordable housing as sp 9 eliminates single-family zoning across the state by allowing property owners to build up to two duplexes or four units on. he's worried it will in fact are the very communities of color and working-class proponents say the new housing laws are meant to help. >> people are already heavily trading in these areas now. this will accelerate and intensify little old ladies and seniors that have been in these communities a long time being harangued and asked and bombarded with offers to buy their house. >> reporter: and constantin hatcher says there are protections against that. for instance, owners must live in the property for 3 years before spitting it up. he says this opens up opportunities. >> they can keep their home, which is fine, right? but it also gives them an opportunity to take that home, and either split that lot, and create 3 bar homes for other families to be able to move in. >> reporter: he says a uc berkeley study found the housing that could create up to 600,000 new units, and well it's not the solution to california's housing crisis, he says it is one part of the puzzle. >> one block of neig

will the vote on the bipartisan bill be postponed again? what house speaker nancy pelosi said when asked today. and all of this with a potential government shutdown looming. rachel scott on the hill again tonight. >>> news this evening about the death of gabby petito. her family breaking their silence today. >>> that deadly amtrak derailment. news on the victims tonight. the couple marking their 50th wedding anniversary with a cross-country trip on amtrak. >>> the warning for shoppers heading into this holiday season, with the growing supply shortage here in the u.s. dozens of cargo ships waiting off both coasts tonight. what we're seeing in stores already. and the advise for shoppers that sure got our attention today. >>> good evening and it's great to have you with us here on a tuesday night. and we begin tonight with the grilling on capitol hill today. america's top military leaders pressed on the chaotic and deadly withdrawal from afghanistan. and appearing to contradict president biden when they revealed that their advice was to leave a small u.s

so i'm always happy to be in not just district six, but anywhere where we are breaking ground on housing, but it's particular affordable housing because i know what it means and, don, you and the family at t.n.d.c. who do incredible work for our city, you understand the value because you don't just help to build and create the housing. you help to work with the community. you help to serve the community with services that ensure that they are able to stay housed. that they are stable because that's what building and maintaining a community is all about. so i want to thank each and every one of you for being here today to break ground on this incredible project and i am hopeful that it's finished on time and under budget so i can come back and hand over the first key with a gift basket to the first family that's moving in because we're going to see a lot of smiles. yes, we see smiles today, but there's nothing like seeing those kids walk into their own bedrooms and seeing just their bed made up with smurf bedding. we like the little mermaid and smurfs and that kind of stuff back in the da

maybe secretary fudge can shed some light on the most pressing issue in housing. that is in regards to the rental assistance program. and millions of renters across the country would like some answers. but madam chair, we are on a deadline. the biden ministration eviction moratorium ends on july 31st. the cdc has said no more extensions. what are people supposed to do? what is the plan? last december congress provided 25 billion dollars in american emergency rental assistance. democrats then added another 21 billion dollars this year for the exact same purpose. that is 46 billion dollars. this might not sound like a lot of money, considering what the democrats are talking about, in spending three and a half trillion dollars on a progressive agenda, with the next budget, but i assure you, from americans, who have to decide whether they want food for the family or to pay back rent, it certainly is. this money was supposed to help retire old rent deaths. and in the threat of eviction for those who fell behind during the pandemic. so where is that money and who is it h

turn and republicans are seizing on disagreements between the white house and the military on the decision to withdraw and the timing of it and the chaos that ensued. >>> welcome to "meet the press daily" i'm chuck todd and happy hump day to you. the president and democrats have something of a five alarm political fire on their hands which means they're looking to the leader of their party, the president for help. but so far, it hasn't come at least publicly. he hasn't said what he wants the party to do. the president did cancel his trip to chicago today to stay in washington where his party is fractured and seems to be fracturing even more. and it's unclear if he can save this agenda. folks, if the biden agenda collapses democrats everywhere will feel it, centrist, you name it. amid a flurry of meetings at the capitol hill and white house, negotiators on capitol hill still don't even have a firm grasp on what the size of this big reconciliation package will be. manchin and sinema still haven't said what price tag they're willing to support. speculation is about $2.5 trilli

we'll see a vote on the house floor to avert government shutdown. we're going to see if there are breakthroughs or news on a vote of the other thing, the bipartisan infrastructure bill that house speaker nancy pelosi would like to put forward. tbd on that. if that's not enough for you, more breaking news coming from the supreme court, involving a vaccine mandate by new york city public schools. pete williams is here. what's going on? >> public school teachers say to the supreme court put a hold on this, it is going to effect us unfairly. this would apply to basically about 148,000 employees of the state department of education, teachers, school staff. under the rules new york imposed here, they all have to show they've gotten at least one vaccination against covid. they say it is unfair for a couple reasons, it would deprive people of the ability to seek their profession, they could never work without getting the vaccination, they say it is unfair it applies to teachers but doesn't apply to policemen, firefighters, others that come in contact with th

i want to focus on housing, of course, particularly access to housing. research shows that access to housing equals a healthy prorks ductive society. it means access to building generational wealth. it also means closing the racial wealth gap. it is estimated between 2020 and 2040, 70% of new home owners will be latino. and they found in 2019, there were 8.3 million mortgage-ready, mortgage ready latinos age 45 and under. the national association of hispanic real estate professionals found the top producing firms are the ones that offer bilingual services throughout all stages of the home buying process. it's important to think about how we can use language access to expand access to housing. it is great to see that they provide multilingual services. and if we don't provide services, we set them up for failure. and we want our home buyers to succeed. it's important for home buyers struggling to navigate a cumbersome decision. they provided 100 million for housing counseling to help struggling families stay in their homes. but they do not always have the

package which is $3.5 trillion but most people expect will shrink and there are deadlines on the horizon. house speaker pelosi wants a vote on monday. congress grappling with the debt ceiling and potential government shutdown. the president said that he believes progress has been made in terms of the covid relief bill. he believes this legislation will get done. he was sharply critical of the scenes at the border with the haitian migrants and border agents on horseback. and there is the covid pandemic. he touted the ruling about boosters and suggested that pool of americans will expand in the coming weeks and months. but just in the last few minutes, andrea, there's another reminder how covid is with us everywhere. vice president harris was set to give her first sitdown interview with "the view" and just before she came on stage two of the hosts were pulled from the set because they tested positive. they were vaccinated and seemed to be find. the vice president did the interview remotely. on a dap the president is touting progress against the virus, the pandemic is very much still with us. >> w

one can't exist without the other. we've given house democrats a tight window and they can't afford to lose more than a couple of members if they're going to pass the 1.2 trillion fake infrastructure bill. so, i'm more hopeful than ever that congress won't pass either of the bills as we meet here today this morning. by the way, if they did, democrats will have authored, $13 trillion of new spending since taking over the house of representatives on january 2nd of this year. for reference, that's slightly less in new spending than congress spent in total over the course of the entire trump administration. right now, democrats are supposed to pass the so-called bipartisan infrastructure package. they have to pass a continuing, if they're going to pass that, they have to pass a continuing resolution to avoid a government shutdown by october 1st. just days away from today. now, this is a continuing resolution that pelosi passed, also suspends the debt limit through december of 2022. and leader mcconnell already stated that the senate won't p
