Senator Bernie Sanders, welcome back to the young Turks.

Great to be with you and it's wonderful to see you and honor together.

Thank you.

Congratulations.

It's good to see all of us back together again.

So, Senator Sanders, let me get started because obviously we've got weighty issues here less than

three weeks before the election and with coronavirus raging. So, in fact, the most pressing issue is

the bill that is now being considered a stimulus bill. Some disagreements obviously in Washington

about not only what should be in the bill, but Nancy Pelosi stands to negotiate for a better deal

and not yet sign the deal that some folks in Washington are pushing.

What's your take on that? Do you think she should hold the line and have you advised from the

Senate side on what you think is the right way to go?

Well, Chang, as you know, Nancy and Shumma have already made major, major concessions.

They have gotten virtually nothing from the Republicans.

At a time when millions of people have lost their jobs,

people are worried about being evicted, people are having trouble feeding their kids.

We need to make sure that every unemployed worker continues to receive that $600 check

as a supplement to his or her unemployment. People need that $1,200 check per month.

People need health care. We need to adequately fund cities and states

or in the process of laying off hundreds of thousands of workers. So, the devil is in the details,

but we need a very robust package to protect working people today who are really struggling.

So, Senator Sanders, you're absolutely right about the devil being in the details.
