Summary

Over the weekend, President Biden agreed to sign a nearly $1 trillion bipartisan infrastructure package, which was one of his big goals to accomplish before the 2022 Midterm Elections. With 2020 in the rearview mirror and 2022 growing even closer, both Republicans and Democrats are forming their plans with Democrats eager to defend their control of Congress and the GOP planning how they will reclaim some seats in the House and Senate. Director of the Fox News Decision Desk Arnon Mishkin joins to discuss which states will have closely contested elections in 2022, what advantages the Republican Party can expect to capitalize on in the midterms, the issue of the economy being a major concern for voters and how voter turnout for Republicans relies on reaching out to multiple demographics within the GOP. Americans are preparing for a normal July 4th celebration this year, with most of the coronavirus restriction being lifted across the country. Singer and actress Vanessa Williams will be back again on your tv screens as the host of “A Capitol Fourth.” Williams joins to explain why the concert will be remote again, what she’s looking forward to and how her biggest music hit fell into her lap. Plus, commentary by Jimmy Failla, host of "Fox Across America with Jimmy Failla." Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
