director raphael's presentation about everything that can't get done really scared me. a city's budget reflects its values. how can we tell our kids and grand kids that we didn't value or health and safety or anyone else's for that matter to meet our climate goals in time to avoid catastrophy. with no accessible levels of funding, san francisco doesn't have any idea of what implementing the financial plan will cost. that can't be allowed to happen, and we certainly can't allow reducing its current budget, which is so inadequate any way. so when the city allows the department charged with overseeing climate action to have pathetically low money, all other departments can feel free to ignore its mandates, all of which are urgent. i believe this is both fiscally and morally wrong. please, commissioners, make your case to the mayor and supervisors that for s.f.e. to depend on work orders from other departments and for them to squander valuable staff time writing grant proposals is appalling and will have tragic results. this wealthy city in the wealthiest country in the wor

raphael warnock was the first to be declared the winner of a senate seat on the election night in georgianot until the next day when chuck schumer was in hiding, because a trump mob attacked the capitol, that we learned that jon ossoff was declared the winner in georgia and that win made chuck schumer the new majority leader of the united states senate. a senator's first speech on the senate floor is a momentous occasion for that senator, but usually not many other people pay attention. new senators take weeks, sometimes months thinking about that first speech before they stand and deliver it. senator warnock was the first of the two new georgia senators scheduled to speak on the senate floor. senator ossoff is not yet scheduled to speak on the senate floor. he is still thinking about that first speech he will deliver. both of georgia's new senators, who decided the control of the senate, will now command the senate's attention whenever they rise to speak. senator warnock began his first senate speech today by acknowledging the tragedy in georgia. >> mr. president, before i begin my forma

my guest this morning, freshman democratic senator raphael warnock of georgia and retiring republican senator roy blunt of missouri. joining me are eddie glaude jr. of princeton university, "wall street journal" columnist joon, jon ralston and nbc news correspondent julia ainsley. welcome to sunday. it's "meet the press." >> announcer: from nbc news in washington, the longest running show in television history this is "meet the press" with chuck todd. >> good sunday morning. it's fair to call the deteriorating situation at the u.s./mexican border a crisis, even if the biden administration refuses to use that word, but it's more than that. it's a political crisis for the new president with no easy way out. republicans are quick to blame mr. biden for the growing number of migrants crossing the border saying it's his rhetoric and policy shifts that caused the surge in migrants. the democratic administration says it was left with an unworkable immigration system left by president trump. conservatives want a big wall. progressives want nothing less than humane treatment from migrants flee

i want to be clear to your voter wers going to elect and reelect raphael warnock.e. georgia voters know what's going on. they are angry about it and they're going to fight for the right to vote. we're going to hold the senate here in georgia, have no doubt congresswoman williams and i will be sure that happens. secondly they're going to be in court and we're go to use this as evidence to back up congress' efforts on h.r.4. they're criminaling they have racist intent. i agree the power piece on disempowering the secretary of state in the county is bad, but really what this bill is, it's a voter intimidation bill. it's a license to racially profile and challenge voters. coming on the heels of a horrific asian-american targeted hate crime. basically anybody now can challenge voters willy nilly based on the color of their skin or what their last name is and it makes it much easier. but guess what, lawrence. we have lots of lawyers. we have lots of power. we have lots of grass roots advocates. we will walk with voters to make sure their rights are defended, and we will

and so, what's the purpose behind all of this. >> so, as you heard from raphael war warnock, this isn issue that he's confused about in the state. but senator chuck schumer has committed to make this a priority, this voting issue at the state shelf. but as we always run into when it comes to the senate there is not 60 votes to be able to pass this legislation in the senate right now as it stands. they need 60 votes to break this filibuster that we return to over again and again. and republicans have said that this legislation is a democratic power grab which is why they won't get behind this legislation. but bottom line is what's happening at the state level will have a massive impact on elections going forward, which is buy senate democrats have made this a priority. >> daniella diaz, thank you so much. appreciate the report. >>> cnn political analyst julian zeller is with us, he's the author of "burning down the house". jul juliey julian, thank you for beg here. i want to start off with something she just talked about. we know that the governor both defended this election and now w

i want you to hear from two georgia democrats, senator raphael warnock and congresswoman nick kima williams. take a listen. >> these are politicians who are trying to hold on to power. that's what this is. it's a power struggle. and they decided that they are going to hold on to power no matter what. >> if this does not take your mind back to the days of the jim crow south, i don't know what is. you are preventing black and brown people and new voters from voting and casting their constitutional right to vote. >> and so the fight moves now to the courts where a federal lawsuit has already been filed by a coalition of voting rights groups to try to stop this new law. it also moves back to washington in the u.s. capitol where lawmakers are saying that what's really needed now to try to stop these kinds of measures across the country is federal legislation such as the john lewis voting rights act, hr1. of course, those measures, unlikely be able to pass unless democrats decide to try to do something about the filibuster, lindsey. >> and i want to ask quickly about former president trump, who w

as georgia senator reverend raphael warnock explained today. >> if there's one thing that's clear, it's that the georgia election was certainly free of any consequential fraud. we counted the votes not once, not twice, but three times. so, what's the purpose of all of this? they don't like the outcome, and so this is democracy in reverse where politicians have decided that instead of the voters picking their representatives, the representatives have a right to cherry pick their voters. it's un-american. it's antidemocratic. we have to resist it. >> it's important to remember why we are at this point, right? it's largely because of a multi-decade long project to tear apart the legal regime of the voting rights act, which was successful, that project, in large part thanks to chief justice john roberts who famously said, things have changed in the south, when gutting a key provision of the act. that's what they want you to believe as stroke by stroke they make it harder to vote. james clyburn joins me and congresswoman nikema williams of georgia, who occupies the seat formerly held by john

no senate republicans that suggested they would vote for hr1, the for the people act, which makes raphael warnock's position there difficult for democrats when they're talking about getting it past the senate. >> yeah, it's interesting to hear senator warnock say, you know, why are democrats getting all these questions about the filibuster? why aren't republicans getting questions about whether or not they're going to, you know, effectively disenfranchise wide swaths of american voters? so, vaughn, give us a sense, this for the people act, if it's passed in washington, d.c., what does that do to voting laws like the ones in georgia and like the ones that other states are trying to pass? >> reporter: i think one of the points you got to make out of this is that it would ban states from requiring photo identification for mail-in ballots. in georgia this last election you saw more than 1.3 million georgians mail in their ballot and black voters mailed them back at a greater rate than white voters but also it would require the early voting be available by mail to voters, at least two weeks. i

senator raphael warnock says democracy depends on it. >> we can walk and chew gum at the same time. we've got to work on the infrastructure of our country, our roads and our bridges. and we've got to work on the infrastructure of our democracy. >>> and new reaction from the white house on the fate of the filibuster. >> is the filibuster racist? is it wrong? >> as the president said just last week, chris, it's been abused. he's not eager to move with destroying the filibuster. he's eager to get things done for the american people. but he's also not going to stand by and prevent forward-moving progress from happening. >> in just a few minutes hear the exchange as a congresswoman takes on the head of facebook about the head of vaccine misinformation. she was targeted by anti-vaxxers. >>> new controversy regarding the colorado shooting after what congresswoman lauren boebert said about guns and hammers. >>> and why a trump donor holdover is still in charge of the u.s. postal service. >>> but now let's check in with nbc's monica alba at the white house and amanda golden on capitol hill.

it will make it much harder for raphael warnock to win re-election two years from now.t in other states making it harder for other democrats to either win empty seats or retain. we'll have to sit down as a caucus and figure it out if republicans won't come our way, and we're going to test them out of course before we go forward with this. but the bottom line is very simple. we will put our heads together. everything will be on the table, and i will do everything i can to make sure that failure is not an option, that we solve these kinds of problems. >> and senator, let me turn to a new york issue, the albany times union, a newspaper i know you read every day is reporting tonight new information about a new accuser of governor cuomo. you have said up to now that let the investigation take its course. is there anything about these new allegations that is changing your view of this? >> well, everyone of these allegations is really serious, really troubling and needs to be carefully, carefully looked at. i have always said that sexual harassment is just not tolerable in our

you heard raphael warnock make the case that this is on republicans to seek out and to make sure that voters across this country have access to the ballot box there. at the same time, you see requiring 60 votes to pass a for the people act or pass the john lewis advancement voting rights act here. and that is where this challenge is going to be for democrats. we should note there is a potential that joe manchin and kyrsten sinema could kill the filibuster to pass these sort of measures and in large part because it comes down to the redrawing of district lines. that is happening this year and as part of hr-1, geoff, it would require states to have independent redistricting positions so there would be less gerrymandering taking place and that is why there is the urgency to get these pieces of legislation passed. >> it's a story we'll keep following very closely. vaughn, thanks for that. >>> coming up in the next half hour, andrea hailey joins me to talk about the economic pressure aimed at rolling back georgia's new voting law. >>> now to minneapolis where the world will be watching as
