today is a good day, baltimore. one hundred days ago, just after president biden and i were sworn in, i stood in front of the lincoln memorial. i talked about american aspiration. i talked about how in america we not only dream, we do. we not only see what has been, we see what can be. we shoot for the moon and then we plant our flag on it. so for a minute, let's go back to where our nation was 100 days ago. about two out of 300 million americans at that time were fully vaccinated. more than 10 million americans were out of work. schools were closed. businesses were closed. and beyond the pandemic, the capital had just been attacked by insurgents. all of that was going on when the president and i took her oath of office but as daunting as the challenges were, we were not. we had a plan to get america back on track. we had faith the american people, when given the opportunity to come together, would rise to meet the moment. and you have. you have. and because you have, american aspiration has defined these first 100

now it's like baltimore it's like a warehouse area. got a union election there. if you could see where houses start to organize, that we pretty extraordinary. that will go some ways towards improving conditions come proving this kind of work pretty set us on the historical arc that was sought last century. those steel jobs are very low paid those workers are badly traded until they got the unions and in the 30s, 40s, and 50s. that made a big difference. we start to see that happen now in the warehouse realm be a very big deal. the elections can happen freely and fairly. the fact president biden spoke out as he did a week or two ago on that point was a very big deal. the other area where the government has a much bigger role to play as an antitrust. one big reason for this regional inequality is that fulfillment is about is economic concentration. to put it very bluntly one reason you have this huge gap between cities and towns is that business and commerce that used to be kind of dispersed all around the country, and various sectors is not sucked, who heard and d

joining us now, marilyn mosby, state's attorney for the city of baltimore and the author of this new initiative. this policy was your idea. we ticked through the numbers, violent crime down 20%, property crime down 36%, drug possession arrests down 80%. were you yourself surprised by these results? >> so, i mean, one of the things i have to note is that in 2019, i testified before the u.s. panel and said there's no better illumination of this country's failed war on drugs than the city of baltimore. and so, you know, while i said that in the context of marijuana legalization, it applies to drug policy more generally. since nixon and reagan, we fought this war on drugs which was later professed to be a war on black people, where judges and prosecutors imposed these excessive sentences for crimes that had nothing to do with public safety. that's essentially what that data is. i'm in no way attributing these policies to the decline in crime. i think the stability in the police department is certainly welcomed and has been attributing to that decline. but what i can say is that it shows

guest: it was fundamental in baltimore. baltimore was a democratic city. you do not need to worry about republican so much. you need to worry about the democratic primary. same thing is true in san francisco where she moved and became very active in politics, chair of the democratic party in california and then a candidate herself. when you see her operate in washington today, as we have become such a partisan town, you can see the effects of that, i think. she has never been in a situation where bipartisanship was the role of the day. not that she has never cut bipartisan deals. of course she has. but that is not the instinct she grew up with. host: therefore, doesn't contribute to the hyper partisanship? guest: i think are strongest admirer would say she is a master of our political system. one thing her critics might say if she did not try to change things about our political system. she excelled in this very partisan atmosphere. she became one of the parties most successful fundraisers. you might say the effect of big money is something you would like

crime in baltimore dropped, and now the city is making those changes permanent. joining me right now, baltimore city state's attorney, marilyn mosby. it's good to see you again. it was your idea, right, to implement this new policy? >> it is really good to see you as well, alex. >> well, i'm glad to have you here, because this is really good news, right? your idea to implement the policy. you said that over the last 12 months, violent crime is down 20%. property crime, down 36%. 80% fewer arrests for drug possession. when you look at these numbers, and all those down arrows, are you surprised or did you expect this? oh, goodness. i think we've just lost that great interview we hoped to have with marilyn mosby. you know what we're going to do, everyone? we'll take a quick break. try to get her back on the other side. can you hear me now? do you want me to ask the question again? i'll be happy to do that. but basically, all these numbers, everything going down in terms of arrests, fewer arrests for drug possession, violent crimes down, property crime down. i mean,

one was launched in baltimore of the death of freddie gray. it was ruled a homicide, and ended up in a consent decree. marilyn mosby was the prosecutor, and is the state's attorney for baltimore city. good to see you. >> thank you for having me, chris. >> do you believe that the doj made a meaningful difference in baltimore? >> i absolutely do. first and foremost, i think we're in a unique sort of moment. what we saw yesterday was the first step towards equality and accountability. but accountability is so incredibly important. when you look at what happened in freddie gray in 2015, that accountability, which wasn't being had in this country, led to exposure. a week after i charged those officers, the department of justice came in, exposed a pattern and practice of discriminatory policing. that led to reform ultimately. despite the fact that the trump administration tried to stop it, it's still on record. and we can point to tangible reforms that were put in place as a direct result of that accountability. you look at the federal consent decre

my name is -- and i'm a 24 veteran of the baltimore police police department. i currently serve as commander of education and training and lead the crisis response program for prudham also bloomberg fellow at the johns hopkins bloomberg school of public health. well it's my privilege to appear before you today i wish my presents were not necessary. we have come together because for at least the past decade law enforcement actions have been associated with annual deaths of 1100 people nationwide. it's estimated that 25% to 50% of these deaths involve persons diagnosed with a severe mental illness. in the past three weeks alone more than a dozen people who are mentally ill in the throes of a break down. these tragedies point to the urgent needs of law enforcement and behavioral health professionals and stakeholders and individuals with little experience to develop and implement solutions to effectively respond to a crisis and meet the complex behavioral health needs of those we serve. we are in the situation because public policy decisions decades ago when psychi

and it might not have happened in baltimore in 1992. it could have happened in another city, five years later, ten years later. but some other team would have said, at some point, we don't want a concrete doughnut that looks like a freeway overpass. we want a real baseball park. and architects would have, ultimately, i think, responded. at least that's -- that's my sense. but, you know, we never know 100%. >> right because customer pushback. customer didn't want the product. >> well, that -- yes, ultimately, in all of architecture, what clients want matters. you know? so, and one of the things that the people are proudest of is, you know, they -- they serve their clients. and they do what their clients wanted. happily here, they had a very, very enlightened client who wanted something important. you know, another -- but, to the point about downtown revivals were just happening any -- anyway, and it would have made its way into baseball, somewhere, for the first time. it's one of the reasons i feel for kansas city, that maybe it's just a

one of the big things when i was hired in baltimore city, i grew up in baltimore city. i knew the community. and now you have a jurisdiction just like baltimore that will go to outside chiefs that don't -- aren't familiar with the communities but they come in and you're not bringing in the citizens who know the communities, know the people. know the streets. where to turn left. where to turn right. and it's happening again and again. and now the small agency, baltimore is the eighth largest police department in the united states when i was there, you have small agencies based on social media, body cams, community engagement now exposing this type of poor decision-making when it comes to the staffing of a police department. and you said four minorities in that -- >> four black. 4 out of 47 black and i believe 7 minorities. >> look at that ratio. >> it's about 8%. >> that's sickening. okay. so they need to diversify immediately. and there's a black mayor there. get in there. diversify. hire from within the community. and if you cannot find qualified applicants, okay. if y

we didn't have that implementation in the city of baltimore, before that decision. before that accountability. we have use-of-force and deescalation policies that emphasize the sanctity of life. we have the affirmative duty to intervene when your fellow officers cross the line. police officers are mandated to call a medic when requested by a prisoner. the mandate to seatbelt all prisoners, right? we even have cameras in some of the police wagons where we don't have to just rely on circumstantial evidence, like we did in freddy gray. and then, there is also software verification that ensures police accountability. so, there are tangible reforms. but let's be clear. there are, still, systems that prevent police accountability, that we have to ensure that we -- we -- we reform. >> accountability goes hand in hand, with culture. do you believe that the investigation, and your prosecution, was a catalyst for culture change? is there any indication? >> i mean, you hit the nail on the head, chris. this is about culture change, right? this is not a training issue. right? an
