THIS EPISODE: Senate Majority leader Mitch McConnell’s Covid-19 relief bill will be “phony” Rep. Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY) says, meaning everyday, working class Americans will not receive the necessary pandemic assistance through the Senate proposal, in his view. Passing a vital, robust coronavirus pandemic relief package, and the related stalemate in Congress, are discussed by Jeffries and Tiffany Cross. NEXT: Covid-19-linked poverty should be a 2020 presidential debate topic Rev. Dr. William Barber says, as this activist encourages poor, working class, and low-wealth citizens to vote in high numbers in the 2020 election. AND: Polls conducted right before 2020 Election Day could be critical to verifying the results of the 2020 presidential elections, if Joe Biden continues with a double-digit lead, and Donald Trump appears to win by one or two points, pollster and expert Fernand R. Amandi believes. PLUS: Democrats can win the Georgia U.S. Senate races candidates Rev. Raphael Warnock and Jon Ossoff say, as both describe a climate in their state and America as one that increasingly embraces diversity. All this and much more in this Sunday edition of AM JOY on MSNBC.
