and now in 2022 in georgia. so all these kind of played together with democrats saying hey, you know, we can still win the middle. but we don't have to necessarily alienate the left by aiming at the middle of the entire time. and so they started pushing for for democratic leaning, you know core voters particularly those younger voters and voters of color who didn't vote often in midterm elections and even skipped a lot of presidential elections. but that's not the approach republicans to in terms of expanding their coalition. i think you talked about that a bit earlier. can you explain to people who may not know what the coalition for the gop looks like in georgia and how it may look similar or different from the national gop coalition. yeah as the democratic coalition of 20 years ago tat was enters. it was basically rural white democrats who were kind of yellow dog democrats. they had been democrats forever and urban mostly minority black democrats voters of color in in cities like atlanta and savannah and colu

i represent the people of georgia. and i am not going to do it people tell me to do and i am not going to have people believe me because you can. but i would love to do is take the time to come down to georgia -- we sit down and break bread -- because i am about bringing people together, not separating people, where is it seems like you are. separating people because of color. that is not herschel walker. >> and elie mystal is the justice correspondent for the nation. and his new article is titled the herschel walker senate campaign is an insult to black people. he joins me now. when this came out last night, i tweeted, i am driving and there was a lot of responses, elie. the first question to you is, what are the snacks for that road trip and who is in control of the mix tape? >> don't get me wrong, katie. i would love to snap into a slim jim, hop down i-95, and throw on some -- i would probably go with, just because of the season, jesus christ superstar. it would be fun for the entire road trip. but i will not. becau

that is what georgia can do. of course, we are not a country that, given our situation, the occupation of our territories and our resources, we cannot provide arms, we cannot be doing what countries that are a part of the european union or nato can do, but moral support is very important, and i stand for that. >> let me ask you, madam president, are you personally in touch with president zelenskyy? if so, what is your understanding of where things are today in ukraine? >> well, i think what i've heard also through your channels is that the situation is very dire, everybody is expecting a second stage of the russian invasion and one that has not been -- and that's something we shouldn't forget, has not been successful in this first 46 days, if i'm not mistaken, and that's a huge success for ukrainians. now russia is trying to recomposite self, changing general, changing probably strategy, but not changing the strategy which is to be directed against civilians and not only against the military forces, and that is s

i'm from georgia. and for those of us that don't live in border states, it's a lot different when we see on the news the stories of the massive invasion at our southern border. it's a lot different when we read about it. but when i went to the border just a few days ago with congressman tony gonzales, when he put together a great trip and i'm so grateful, it became very clear to me. what is happening at our southern border is a crisis of epic proportions. and it's difficult to comprehend it until you actually see it in person. this is a complete human and drug trafficking operation that is doing nothing for americans but hurting our country. and it's enriching the cartels. they have grown their network and expanded it massively throughout their country into our country, far-reaching even into our cities as was explained to us by the border patrol where they recruit from our own american cities to come down to mexico to help them traffic humans and drugs across our southern border. this should never be

the pretext was that georgia were oppressed it's minorities in the north. so what 14 swore they're relying on was that he could frame these 2 northern provinces of georgia being on the attack as the people that being oppressed by georgia nationalists, which is exactly the same as we can see long as we've been seeing in ukraine on, with it on boss reaching the succession of ukrainian presidents post independence, want to pursue different agendas. i some seek, closer ties with moscow. others integration with the e. u and nato most plagued by corruption. oh you credit has been genuinely pulled in different directions, both economically strategically. but the western parts of the country have many more ties towards the west. they have much more of a strong interest in joining the you. the eastern parts of the country are much more closely integrated with russia economically, demographically. they have much more of an interest in maintaining close ties with russia. in parts of ukraine's east, a powerful russian minority is determined to strengthen links to what

later in western georgia, christina may hick from estonia and thomas cats leone us from lithuania, are reinventing key production and getting a fresh start themselves. 4 years ago, they tried their hand at farming for the very 1st time and began a new life, 3000 kilometers from home. well, if you want to take only highest quality leaves, you have to do it by hand. sir. old it would be impossible to cut it, sir. mechanical yonder, this too leaves under but level if, if it goes mechanical, it takes every think, those sir hard and all lives as well. so in estonia, christina may heck used to work as a marketing expert for a bus company, but now she had a t plantation. is the best way to be like in connection with the nature actually. so connection where you see them growing like girl, like in the spring when they actually start to like the 1st more ones start to start to grow. it's really like her amazing feeling and te, has a long tradition in georgia in soviet times. 90 percent of the t for the gigantic multi ethnic state was produced here using machinery and pesticides. but the t produc

the owners of the plantation in georgia wanted to avoid such conditions in their own business. that's why they thought up their own special business model. here in awesome plantation owner keaton patel distributed 4000 of the new climate friendly wood ovens and the families of the tea pickers are trying them out. will they become well established, like the ingenious plantation owner hopes that she did? he of gold con him put on his sister, you like cooking with this stove? roger obviously went, forgot the owner. nan, i this drive is better than the old one. it takes less wood to cook and cooks faster. we need 4 kilos of wood for this one. and we used to ne, 10, how can attack any law and that lowers c o 2 emissions. and even for the chart would left over the plantation owner has an idea the families can sell it to the plantation. and then the charcoal can be used to dry out the tea leaves, instead of the climate damaging black coal with $25.00 kilos times $400.00. that makes 100 rupees. if you had for air become biased, new stove helps us send some money by selling the left ove

well you live in georgia it the situation in georgia? it's georgia. it is what we're seeing it. was that massive turnout that flipped, georgia blue. and in the response has been a current law sb202 that looks at stopping the access to the ballot box the ways that african americans and latinos and asian americans and poor folk access the ballot box during that pandemic year where they're like democracy hangs in the balance. and so if i have to stand in line 11 hours, i'm going to do it and and if i have to, you know, figure out my absentee ballot and get to one of those dropboxes. boxes. i'm going to do it. and what you also saw with sv 202 was lowering the guardrails that protected democracy from being overturned by trump's attempt. remember when trump called in to brad raffensberger? all i need you to do is find me 11,790 votes, right? and so it's lowering those guardrails that prevented that from happening. i mean, that's what we're seeing in georgia as the response to this incredible engagement of george and citizens. so in your view professor anderson your most recent book t

georgia has increased provider graham reimbursement rates by 15% and georgia has increased the income eligibility to the maximum of 85% for the median income. individual states have used my written testimony just a few last things. having three programs with different application eligibility's will be extremely confusing as a struggle with one streamlined process. bbb would necessitate states to build out at least two additional eligibility systems, going against the progress we have made in creating one state eligibility system. scoring estimates childcare providers will be reimbursed and less in 2028 for childcare than they are charging now. but also with caps on tuition which will make paying increased wages to teachers impossible and decreasing access to childcare from center closures "build back better" would triple the regulatory burden at each program would likely require a three-year plan with with annual progress reports. once every three years or. >> ms. reynolds if you could summarize your last comment i. >> yes a few more paragraphs.
