It's just turning to 6 a.m. on the East Coast. Good morning and welcome to Morning Joe. It is Monday, September 27th.

It is a make or break week on Capitol Hill for Democrats as supporters of the president, race to pass his signature plans.

We're also following key new developments in the government's push for vaccines,
