george rutherford at ucsf. nice to have you back on the program. how big of a concern should this be in term of the heart inflammation? >> i think it's somewhat of a concern. it's not common as they've said. it's a pretty rare complication. i think they came at it 12 for 1 million doses. but it's -- if you have chest pain, shortness of breath, if you have symptoms of heart muscle inflammation, especially in the first four or five day after getting your vaccine, you should seek getting medical care and get evaluated. but in the grand scheme of things, at least they thought, the cdc panel felt, that the benefits of the vaccine far outweighed the risk, especially with variants and more disease in younger people. >> i ask as a journalist and father of two -- one of my kids has been vaccinated. the other has not. should parents worry about getting their parents vaccinated, here? >> they should be worried about getting them vaccinated. not about not getting them vaccinated. with the delta variant spreading this is a much more transmissible disease and th

george rutherford. dr. rutherford, thank you so much for being here. what is your take on tossing our masks especially with this new delta variant out there? is it a good idea? >> you may need it someday but for right now if you fully vaccinated, you are clear. the delta variant seems to be quite susceptible to the vaccine and we have seen clusters stop by people who are around the cluster weapon vaccinated so i inc. from a vaccine standpoint is all good news pick up in order for the vaccine to work you have to get vaccinated so that remains the challenge ahead. >> they are worried about their kids. they should be having masks on. you don't want your kids to get this delta variant. it is not the earlier variance. i think you have to continue to exercise caution. it is a different kettle efficiently have recommended that kids going to summer camps don't need to wear masks if they are outdoors. for right now, if you child is older than two, keep the mask on him or her if you go outside until the day, probably september, october, we get them vaccinated. >

rutherford says anti body tests just don't work. just a couple of things to keep in mind there, dan. >> very good. steph, talk a little bit about what we know about the failure rate of the vaccine here in california and across the united states. >> so it's very rare, in the u.s. one out of every 11,000 vaccinated people got reinfected with the virus. in california, state records show one out of every 7,000 vaccinated people got reinfected. so of course these are proximate totals but the bottom line is it's extremely rare. >> okay. good to hear. stephanie. thank you. >> children ages 5 to 11 will be part of a covid-19 vaccine trial being conducted by kaiser permanente right here in the oakland area. children will be enrolled in the trial of pfizer's vaccine. about 4,600 children in the age group are participating in trialing nationwide. kaiser also participated in trialing to expand vaccinations for those 12 to 17 years old. >>> and tonight, we are a little more than 7 days from the state's reopening. there are already signs of life

george rutherford. this is going to be a big weekend, a lot of crowds. what short buys for folks who are not vaccinated? >> of course it's a matter of concern. less in the bay area as we are such a highly vaccinated part of the state. to the extent that people congregate better unvaccinated indoors or outdoors, there can be a rapid transmission. it remains a cause of concern. across the united states cases are continuing to go down. there are lots of parts of the country in states with low and realization race where cases are starting to go up and that is all delta, i would imagine. >> what is your advice to people who were going to go to a fourth of july party and they don't know if the guests vaccinated? >> if they are vaccinated they are good, if not they should probably stay away wear a mask the whole time. the larger question is people with younger children, under 11. if they are outdoors plan, probably do not need to wear a mask. that is consistent with cbc advice for summer camps. if they are indoors and they are mixing across households they shou

rutherford: madam speaker, as a former sheriff of duvall county, i can personally attest to the differencethe monique burr foundation is making in the lives of children across florida and our country. recently mr. burr received the biller humanitarian award in recognition of his decades of public service to support and protect children in need. on behalf of the fourth congressional district of florida, i congratulate edward burr for his well deserved honor. i thank the monique burr foundation for children for their excellent work in our community. with that, madam chair, i yield back. the speaker pro tempore: for what purpose does the gentleman from pennsylvania seek recognition? >> i seek unanimous consent to address the house for one minute. the speaker pro tempore: without objection, the gentleman is recognized for one minute. >> thank you, madam speaker. madam speaker, i rise to lament the failure of the for the people act, h.r. 1, in the united states senate. it's a sad week that this has happened. mr. cartwright: h.r. 1, the for the people act, ought to be bipartisan american goal. i

then presidential candidate rutherford b. hayes cut a deal with white supremacists in the united states congress. he agreed to withdraw the union army from the former confederate states in exchange for the presidency. when the union army with drew from the south, it left behind a vacuum that ultimately came to be filled by jim crow. a system of racial discrimination and racial segregation and racial terrorism. and what followed the failure of reconstruction was a lost century. so for me, madam chairwoman, the lesson of juneteenth is that an activist federal government is an essential defender of human rights and civil rights. it's an essential defender of equality, dignity, humanity for all americans. we must learn if the lessons of history. we must continue the work of reconstruction that is long overdue. so thank you, madam chair. ms. jackson lee: it is an extreme pleasure to draw upon your knowledge and scholarship. might i stand on your shoulders, an activist federal government. and for some reason, as we face these trial
