Republicans Set Sights on Regaining Majority in 2022

Last week, following Republican Glenn Youngkin’s victory in Virginia and other GOP wins across the country, the National Republican Congressional Committee announced it would be targeting a total of 70 House Democrat seats in the 2022 midterm elections. Democrats have been reinvigorated to press forward with President Biden’s agenda after the passage of the $1.2 trillion infrastructure bill on Friday, but it is clear that their confidence in 2022 has been shaken. Chairman of the National Republican Congressional Committee, Rep. Tom Emmer of Minnesota, joins to discuss why he believes many Democrats have announced retirement after the 2021 election results, which issues he believes the Republicans have an edge on, and the ambitious NRCC plan to win back the majority in the House.

Children are getting ready to roll up their sleeves. The CDC signed off on the lower-dose Pfizer vaccine being eligible for elementary kids ages 5-11 as the U.S. continues to combat the coronavirus pandemic. Despite the CDC’s approval, some parents are saying they want to wait and see before they go get their children vaccinated. Former U.S. Surgeon General under President Trump, Dr. Jerome Adams joins today to discuss some parents’ concerns over getting their children vaccinated right away. He explains why he is going to have his 11-year old daughter get vaccinated with the COVID-19 shot and why the benefits outweigh the risks.
