we are live in cincinnati, ohio, on the campus of mount saint joseph university overlooking the ohio river. this is a cnn town hall with the president of the united states, joe biden. i'm don lemon. president biden is facing a critical moment in his agenda. nearly half of the u.s. population is fully vaccinated against covid-19 but the pace of the vaccination is at the lowest point since january and the highly infectious delta variant is driving a new covid surge in all 50 states. virtually all covid hospitalizations and deaths are now among the unvaccinated so tonight we are here in ohio taking questions from a live audience as the president works to keep the pandemic in check and his goal of an infrastructure deal on track. it is really a critical moment for his agenda. we will take questions from some who voted for the president and some who did not vote for president biden. the president and myself and everyone here in our audience, we are all fully vaccinated so without further adieu, everyone, let's welcome the 46th president of the united states, joe biden. [ applause ] >> hi

so many questions of course on the minds of ohio voters. but one thing that's also clear, these town meetings can also be unpredictable. voters can have their own questions on their mind what to ask the president. >> that's right. they can be full of surprises. all right, jeff, thank you so much. let's discuss with cnn white house reporter natasha bertrand, cnn political commentator bakari sellers, and our political director david chalian. we know david was not going to be able to be kept far away from that. and ryan nobles is still with us. with republicans, you know, pulling out of this january 6th committee, how incredible is it to see this united front between republican congresswoman liz cheney and the house speaker nancy pelosi? it's pretty extraordinary. they are working together on this. you can't break them apart. >> yeah, it's really a classic case of strange bedfellows. obviously there's no love lost, jim, between liz cheney and kevin mccarthy. there's been a rift there for a couple months now. but to see liz cheney take on her f

ohio is the heart of it all. all roads lead through it, and a lot of those roads and bridges are in bad shape. one bridge that the has been discussed a lot is the bridge that moves through ohio to kentucky. again it can't move because we don't have an infrastructure package. this is about commerce and freight, but it's also making sure that every day ohioans can get to work, can make sure they have access to jobs and to make sure that we have broadband and all of the things that you need now to hold a job in this country. ohioans need that investment and we will not be able to afford it and do it without the federal government coming up in a partnership. the conference also made a point, as mayors, we know the best decisions are the one made locally. we want to make sure that this partnership is passed in washington d.c., but allows for local control in these discussions and decisions because mayors in the communities, they lead know best on what they need. every cities have different need, even in ohio. >> if yo

senator, ohio is a good representation of the u.s. as a whole. it is diverse. there's urban areas, rural areas and a fairly even distribution of democrats and republicans. why haven't they been able to connect here? >> i'll answer it this way. i think that for the first time in a long time, in either party, a president of the united states is putting workers at the center of trade policy, tax policy, wages, all that we need to do. in the past, presidents of both parties have put corporate interests front and center. i won in ohio because i talk about the child tax credit, because raising the minimum wage. because a trade policy that focuses on workers. and joe biden is the most proworker president. he talks about unions, talks about giving unions the right to organize and bargain collectively. we're seeing wages go up for the first time in years. for years, corporate profits have gone up, executive compensation has exploded upwards. and it's beginning to change now. that's the really good news about this biden economic recovery. >> i want to talk about what's g

it seems this is more important to ohio than it might be to several other states. >> absolutely, ohio is the heart of it o all, right? so, all roads lead through it and unfortunately the roads are in pretty bad shape. one bridge is discussed a lot is the brent spence bridge that moves from ohio to kentucky that still cannot move because we don't get an infrastructure package. it's about commerce and freight and making sure that every day ohioans can get to work and make sure they have access to jobs ands make sure that we have broadband and all of the, all of the things now that you need to hold a t job in this country. ohioans need that investment ane we will not be able to afford it and do it without the federal government coming up in a partnership. the conferences also made a point, and as mayors we know that the best decisions are the ones made locally andon we wanto make sure that the partnership is, you know, passed in washington, d.c., but i allows r local control in the discussions and decisions because mayors and the communities they lead know best ons what they need. every

we did in in ohio. it's what we suggested and passed in ohio. they didn't do it in kentucky. it's really ridiculous. i hop we're going to get infrastructure package. i think it will be good. when it comes to the three and a half trillion dollar bill out, i hope they don't try to jam that through because that will be purely partisan and i'm not sure they can accomplish that. >> lauren, i think governor kasich raises a good point. it is complicated to get any of these agenda items through. when you look at biden agenda on issue after issue, the agenda is stuck on capitol hill. governor kasich was just talk about infrastructure and bridges. that used to be one of the -- the one issue that just about every member of congress could agree onto pass. efb wants bridges and roads and that kind of infrastructure in their district or state and even that is having trouble getting across the finish line. >> reporter: i think a really telling sign is the fact it was almost a month ago now that the president announced this bipartisan deal with his bipartisan group of lawmakers outside the w

ohio department of health is reporting the highest number of new cases since may. what role do you think misinformation is playing among vaccine hesitant in your city and state? >> oh, i think it's huge. i think big tech have got to take responsibility for their platforms and what is being put out there. and i also believe we vaul to take personal responsibility for our health. and make sure we talk to our loved ones. we may not always convince them, but we got to try. and lead by example. that's one of the reasons i'm so proud of my wife who with barbara lynch, the pastor of a very prominent church here in cincinnati, have worked to do outreach, door knocking, we have door knocked on neighborhoods that have been hesitant and vaccine resistant and spread the message personally. >> so important to do that kind of door to door outreach, like you say, may be your realm. thank you for joining us. good to see you. we'll be watching biden in cincinnati tonight. >>> the white house joining us live in a few minutes right here on "new day." president joins don lemon for tha

there's a 28% increase in vaccination among those 60 and up in ohio -- 16 and up in ohio after announcement of ohio's -- 50,000 to 80,000 additional doses delivered after that lottery was announced. we know people also respond to large incentive payments. there's some risk the smaller incentives can actually backfire by -- that we have to pay you. it might be risky to take the vaccine, -- people are motivated by productive -- less restrictions. like that happen to her must say means a lot to a lot of people. another thing that works very well our mandates, even though they are unpopular, for good reason. when there is a mandate, it is highly effective. colleges and universities are mandated that people get vaccinated when they come back to campus in the fall. that is going to make a huge difference. larger numbers would help, especially we know there are low vaccination rates among the young. as another strategy we could think about encouraging. employers can also impose mandates, and i think we should be looking at whether or not there ways to encourage more employers to do that, given the

the ohio senate race is a perfect microcosm of what's happening in the republican party. you had someone that said fellow christians, everyone is watching us when we apologize for this man, god help us, j.d. vance, you have the former chairwoman of the state party who supported john kasich. all of these people are like they're shrines to donald trump. it's shameful. you know, we are six months now past his attempt to overthrow the election. this could have been a race between three people of differing visions. you know, j.d. vance more populist, josh van del more tea party, other candidates more traditional establishment but it's not that. it's a competition to, yes, both do what you guys are saying and represent the fights that donald trump fights and the people that need to be torn down and the people that need to be defeated, the elites and the left, but it's also an effort to just suck up to one guy and that is very much still happening and j.d. vance is the starkest example of the flip-flop but it's happening across all of these republican primaries. >> what i find r
