"Last word on this memorial day weekend today. President biden participated in a wreath laying ceremony at the tomb of the unknown soldier in arlington national cemetery. President biden was joined by first lady. Jill biden vice president khama harris to honor the men and women of the united states. Military president biden lost his son. Beau to brain cancer six years ago yesterday. Here's what prison biden said after the wreath laying ceremony. Our son bows service in the delaware. Army national guard. Unit year is spent deployed in iraq was one of the things that he was most proud of life yesterday. Mark the anniversary of his death and it's a hard time hard time of year for me and our family just like it is for so many of you can hurt to remember but the hurt is how we feel. And how we he'll always feel close to miami memorial day. I know exactly where. I need to be right here. Honoring our fallen heroes. After the congressional memorial day recess president biden. we'll be pressing congress on his legislative agenda including voting rights infrastructure and police reform. Here's what transportation secretary people to judge said about the infrastructure negotiations yesterday between now and when congress comes back on june seventh. This is not going to be a break for these conversations. The conversations will continue but the president. So often says inaction is not an option and We really are facing some serious time pressure as we look to that That week following this week when congress is going to be back in dc joining us now is shannon petty piece senior white house correspondent for nbc news digital and shannon. What is the order. The sequential order of the legislative agenda when congress comes back from recess. Here's the time line. At least as the white house sees it they are going to be having conversations this week back and forth between congressional staff white house staff. Their goal is by january seventh as you heard from secretary buddha judge there they wanna have quote a clear path forward so so some agreement some path forward on a piece of legislation. The house has said they want to act by august. I'm sorry by july fourth. And then the senate could pass something in august that's on the infrastructure front white house. Democrats know that everything they want might not be in that infrastructure bill. If they are able to get some. Bipartisan deal it might be infrastructure light it might be looking like a big highways bill not everything. The president would like to see then. There's the reconciliation pat that they can still do. They can do both they can do. Infrastructure deal with republicans and then their own reconciliation package. So that's another track and that is a long process and it's going to mean keeping all the democrats united in order to get something through but that's another piece of the agenda. There's also police reform that sort of on the front burner. At this point. There has been a lot of optimism on the hill about being able to something done on police reform in the coming weeks. Probably not in the coming days but in the coming weeks so that is another piece that could come together legislatively. Now all of these pieces could fall through. Some of them could come together or they could all lined up and the president could leave august. The congress could leave their summer. Recess with a number of big legislative wins that the president can check a check off on his legislative agenda and where is voting rights in the biden legislative agenda. Especially after what we're seeing Happened in texas overnight. You know it's obviously it's something the president had said over and over again is important to him. He called this texas bill. That democrats walked out on the texas legislature an assault on democracy. He obviously feels very strongly about this. There's only so much white house can do though on that front that is really up to congress and that is not an area where there is any sort of bipartisan cooperation. Since around that topic there does not appear to be votes or bipartisan. Deal and unlike reconciliation budget bill. You can't get that thrown fifty votes. You need to get ten democrats. Come over in the senate and they don't have that right now. Shannon petty peace. Thank you very much for joining us. Really appreciate it. Thank you and your russian now maria. Teresa kumar president and ceo voto latino on msnbc contributor also with us. John alternate columnist for the daily beast on msnbc political analyst. He is the author of his. Very best jimmy. Carter alive status. Jonathan alters latest book latest of many We're at trace. Kamar of shannon. Petty piece has set it up for us. The biden legislative agenda of beginning june seventh of when congress returns from this current week's recess. It seems like infrastructure is their number one and an. I don't sense. It's it's hard to tell what they what they're pushing after that. I think you're absolutely right. I think she mentioned also that they were going to try to push the police reform and the most important piece of legislation right. Now that you highlighted at the end of the day was this idea of the people's act reforming our like twirl programs at the federal level. So that you don't have a piecemeal. Approach is happening at the state level. But she's not wrong. There's mentioned in cinema. Who don't want to go with the democrats on that. So that's an uphill battle so i think that now biden in the white house are going to try to do is. They're going to try to cut their losses and try to push it infrastructure bill but there is a huge distance between the republicans and the democrats on this because what biden offered was a one point two trillion dollar infrastructure that included some reforms at the social level and the republicans. What they're trying to do is we don't want any of that. We want to repurpose a lot of the nine hundred million dollars already. The next one hundred billion dollars already in the budget and just give you a quarter of a billion dollars for this other infrastructure. But that doesn't meet the moment wherein lawrence and what i mean by that. Is that what you saw the first part of the by the budget that we saw the that the family plan that we saw the emergency jobs plan. That was all trying to make sure that we were. In a state of emergency we were trying to create a patchwork of covid now. This infrastructure is trying to create a state of recovery recognizing that we need to have continued impetus in our economy. Otherwise we're not going to get out of this rut wherein That were presently seeing. Let's listen to what the president's republican negotiating partner in the senate west. Virginia's republican senator shelley moore capito said yesterday about the infrastructure bill. I think we're building those blocks towards towards a really good solid infrastructure package. That has bipartisan support. So we're responding to what the president has said. He told me on the phone just day before yesterday. Let's get this done. And i think that means that he has his heart is in this. We have had some back and forth with the staff have sort of pulled back a little bit. But i think we're smoothing out those edges. Jonathan alter as you know in all of these kind of legislation. The thing that usually blows it up is the pay for. How do you pay for it. And so far all we know from the republicans is that they are opposed to every pay for idea that joe biden has and the republicans haven't really advanced any real pay pay for ideas where i spoke to the president two weeks ago at that point. He said they hadn't even discussed pay. For which i kind of understand because as you know. That's the last thing and it's usually the thing that breaks it all apart when you're dealing with democrat and republican negotiations. Well i think the first thing to understand lawrence's it's not going to break all apart. The will be an infrastructure bill this summer. I believe that will actually be two bills one. That is a bipartisan measure. That mostly released physical infrastructure roads and bridges. The republicans are now on the defensive. They're the party of fiscal irresponsibility. Which is a big change for them. They have no idea about how to pay for it. The democrats want to raise taxes on the wealthy to pay for it so the republicans are going to be in a position where they need to build. I need something to take back to their constituents beyond you know mr potato head and their cultural kinds of issues Cancel culture issues. They have to bring home some bacon so they have some real interest in doing what trump couldn't get done at all those infrastructure weeks and actually having a roads and bridges bill. That's only a small portion of the infrastructure that biden and the democrats want..

"Dot or G'kar. It's all things considered from NPR news. I'm Ari Shapiro. And I'm married Louise Kelly. Um, may They angry race that is Laurie Marie Ki, a nurse from Michigan, who sings this song to her Cupid 19 patients. Tonight she sing it at a solemn service of memorial for the more than 400,000 Americans who have died from the disease. It was a subdued start to the inauguration of Joe Biden, who arrived in Washington today a subdued celebration in the midst of a difficult national moment. The traditional transfer of power from President Trump to Biden. Has been rocky to say the least. We're joined now by NPR. White House correspondent Tamara Keith. Hey, Tam. Hello. So Biden left Delaware, his home state. That was earlier today. There was this big warm send off from family and friends. What did he have to say? It was really touching. It was held at the state's National Guard headquarters that was named for his late son, Beau Biden, his son who served in the Delaware Army National Guard and the president elect. He quoted Irish poets there. He quoted an Irish poet and he wiped away a couple of tears as he talked about his home state. You've been there for us in the good the bad. Never walked away. And, uh, I am proud. Proud, proud, proud to be a son of Delaware. And I'm even more proud. Be standing here. Doing this from major Beau Biden. Sure. Ladies and gentlemen. We have one regret. He's not here. Because he should. We should be introducing him as president. Biden had originally planned to take Amtrak, his favorite mode of transportation to Washington. But that was nixed because of security concerns after the January 6th riot at the capital, so he flew into Joyce joint base, Andrews instead. Okay. Joint base. Andrews being where President Trump is going to fly out from tomorrow morning when he leaves Washington and heads to Florida. He also had a message for us today. Yeah, he, um he did. And we should note that he will be skipping the transfer of power of the capital capital tomorrow, the first president generations to do that. And and he will then fly on Air Force one for For the last time in this farewell speech, it was recorded not delivered Live. There were visible edits. It was about 20 minutes long. And he talked about all of the things he is proud of. He also alluded to the riot, the insurrection that happened when a group of his supporters swarmed the capital two weeks ago is Congress was certifying Biden's when he condemned the violence, but Not surprisingly, he did not talk about his role in inciting them to go there. Of course, that is something the Senate will be considering as it conducts a trial following the House impeachment of President Trump and certainly That could affect his political future. Let's listen to a bit of his remarks. Now, as I prepared to hand power over to a new administration at noon on Wednesday, I want you to know that the movement we started is only just beginning. There's never been anything like it. He has still not congratulated Biden or even said his name when referring to the transfer of power. And he's also dangling out the idea that he could run for office again and that he still plans to be a force with his base of America. First supporters. Well, let's talk about tomorrow. President Trump on his way out Joe Biden on his way in. Do we know what sort of message Joe Biden has planned? What sort of message he has for us in his inaugural address. Historians. I've spoken to say that there's truly no guidebook. For this moment there is social and racial discord. The outgoing president hasn't conceded. There's a pandemic that has killed 400,000 Americans so far and The recession that it brought with it. Biden's advisers say to expect a message of unity from him one that is frank about the challenges that America faces. But also that is forward looking. One speech can't really unite the country, but it can set a tone. And speaking of setting a tone real quick, Tam talk about this ceremony tonight at the reflecting pool on the National Mall. This is a memorial service for those lost to Corona virus, a first attempt at leading the nation through a time of mourning and and in a way it's Biden's way of taking on this crisis. It It is his pandemic. Now, in the most urgent crisis he faces his president is NPR. White House correspondent Tamara Keith. Thank you to him. You're welcome. On a typical workday. Thousands of people commute from Virginia over the Potomac River into Washington, D C. Well today and tomorrow. Most of those bridges are closed for the inauguration. Virginia National Guard members are among the tens of thousands of troops guarding the district right now, and the state was among the first to send forces on January 6th during the assault on Congress. Ralph Northam is Virginia's governor. He's a Democrat. Welcome back to all things considered. All right. Thanks for having me today and I hope your listeners are staying safe and healthy. Well, thank you very much. I'd like to begin with your state capital, Richmond. Many states have been preparing for the threat of violence tomorrow. And I know you had a gun rights protest yesterday. That was peaceful. Tell us what you're expecting in Richmond on Inauguration Day. Well, Ari, Unfortunately, we have experience in in Virginia dating back to August of 17 in Charlottesville. And then last January, we We had a lot of armed protesters. So we take this very seriously and yesterday was no exception. We have had to board up our capital windows are covered by plywood. There's fencing. Ran the caff. No, it's It's unfortunate aria for a couple reasons one and that we're having to defend against other Americans. We should all find that is unacceptable. And it's also difficulty because right now we're in the middle of a pandemic. You know our reserves and guardsmen and women have been very helpful and testing and distributing the vaccinations. And so now we're using those resource is in other ways. And so we're looking forward to our resource is whether they be our Police officers are guardsmen to being home and doing other things for the Commonwealth of Virginia. Let's talk about what's happening here in Washington when decisions are made like whether to close bridges connecting Virginia to Washington. Tell us more about how that communication works between you, D. C Mayor Muriel Bowser, Maryland Governor Larry Hogan, not to mention the federal leaders who also have a lot of steak here. Yes, what we have a great relationship with our neighbors and I have worked with Mayor Bowser and Governor Hogan on a number of issues, and we worked very closely on this is well. So you know, this started back on January 6. When we all witnessed the arm insurrection of our capital. I was called by the mayor. At that time, as well as some other congressional leaders. They needed help. Virginia was one of the first states to be there not only with our state police, but we also activated our guard s. So we've had close coordination and collaboration with Washington, D. C. With the state of Maryland with the Secret Service with our state police with our guards members. Everybody has really worked ago. This has been a team effort and and it's really to make sure that we do have a peaceful transition of power tomorrow. And also that we protect our democracy. Now, as we said Virginia sent troops to the Capitol during the January 6th mob attack and send personnel again this week to guard the inauguration, and FEMA has denied Virginia's request for an emergency declaration that would allow federal reimbursement for those costs. Is that a decision that you think could be reversed on of the Biden administration. I anticipate that it will be reversed, Ari, but it's a tremendous slap in the face. Here's a president who's told continuous lies he's created. Tender box along with his enablers..
