Vice President Kamala Harris believes that U.S. democracy's status as a "role model" is at risk if the voting rights laws are not passed.
Currently, Democrats are holding on to a narrow Senate majority. But in 2022, Republicans seek to get back into power after a series of crushing defeats. We'll take a look at the 10 Senate races that will decide which party will tip the scale.
Missouri Representative Cori Bush wants to celebrate the anniversary of the January 6 attack by expelling members of Congress who were involved.
Two deaths in police custody have families in Indiana and Kansas searching for answers.
Plus, a white man who admitted to driving into a crowd of Black Lives Matter Protestors will not serve any jail time because he completed a pre-trial diversion program.
As Covid sends more kids to the hospitals, the stress becomes more challenging to keep nurses. If it weren't for the pay, traveling nurses would be hard to come by. We'll talk to a nurse practitioner who will explain why the current healthcare system is 'unsustainable' as COVID infections surge again.
And we'll talk to the the15-year-old CEO of Gabby-bows in our Marketplace segment sponsored by Verizon. This teen entrepreneur recently opened up her own salon in Columbia, South Carolina.
