look who's here former
georgia senator kelly liefler it's so
great to have you on senator
okay so now we've got chuck schumer he's
again trying to say to senators listen
let's get rid of the filibuster
to get the buy-in agenda through without
any republican votes you know you need
60 votes to get rid of a filibuster so
he's again putting the arm on senators
to do to change the rules what do you
think
well this is exactly what we warned
about in our senate race was that they
were going to fundamentally change
america
they were going to eliminate the
filibuster which means they were going
to take away the voice of the minority
now this is something that even joe
biden when he was a senator said should
not happen
and this is the ultimate in cancel
culture and i sincerely hope that the
senate won't
succumb to the cancel culture because
it's really the premier venue
in our country for debate for
negotiation
and it is truly the saucer that keeps
the tea cup from boiling over
so i hope that we can hold that back
because it means
uh so much to america
yeah we hear what you're saying so you
know we see them you know this this
thing about you know changing the rules
and then you see the misleading claims
about the infrastructure
spending about you know the taxes in it
all we've found a bunch of misleading
claims and now we've got former new
jersey governor chris christie today
saying to republicans
you know what go after president biden
for quote lying
he's saying play hardball what do you
think of that
well i totally agree liz look what's
going on here they've entitled this
infrastructure bill
a jobs act it's a job crushing act it
would not only crush
jobs it would crush the economic
recovery that's been
underway for months you know it
secretary boudej had to lie about the
jobs that it created
we have to call him out on that it's not
just the president that's lying
but look americans deserve to know the
facts about this infrastructure bill
it would not only destroy jobs it would
destroy our energy independence so it's
not just economic security
but it's national security and we need
to be talking about what they're trying
to do they're trying to
transform our economy into a socialist
platform and that's what we talked about
during our campaign
and people said no that's not what's
happening but you look at it
and it's things like raising taxes more
government control it's central
planning they want to have medicaid
expansion 400 billion dollars for that
but only if you're going to become
unionized and so they're really trying
to use this radical spending bill to
transform
america and president biden's been out
lying about
georgia's election integrity bill that
cost georgians a hundred million
opportunity to host the all-star game
for the mlb
based on his lies and that's not just
his lies it's stacey abrams and
senator rafael warnock who used those
lies to do fundraising
so it's absolutely time to call out the
left for what they're doing
we hear what you're saying you know
republicans have been saying the
democrats are trying to
kitchen sink everything into this one
infrastructure bill and ram it through
with one vote
with no gop votes behind it on a you
know simple majority
but you know republicans are saying this
is interesting cut biden's plan by three
quarters
down to what 600 billion 700 billion
that's almost what the actual bill would
spend on traditional infrastructure like
bridges roads and airports you know so
they're saying to stick to that
well that's right and that's common
sense americans want infrastructure that
works for them
good roads bridges airports ports
certainly that means so much to our
economy here in georgia and as americans
get back to work they want to know that
that infrastructure is there
rural broadband things that make our
economy run
you know the private sector is creating
jobs at a rapid pace we just had our
lowest unemployment claims report since
the
pandemic began a year ago we need to
continue on that the government will
crowd out with this needless spending
that will harm jobs in the economic
recovery and so we have to make sure
that we protect the private sector
and let those jobs come back and provide
that infrastructure and
we know the epw and the senate last year
passed
across party bipartisan unanimously
an infrastructure bill that would
provide for that very platform for
americans
for our recovery here you know senator
union workers told npr they don't want
the they don't believe the green energy
jobs in this infrastructure
plan they don't want to start over in a
new trade they risk losing their
pensions and their benefits
the the salaries for these green jobs
one study said on average is twelve
thousand dollars annually
less that's a lot of money for these
workers it takes
less factory workers to make things like
electric
engines versus traditional engines that
run on petroleums
petroleum so the union workers see
what's coming but the democrats are
saying you know what you can go code or
you know they're making false claims
about how
unions will be able to create union job
green energy jobs
let's let's take a listen to this
senator i'd like you to
to get your reaction on democrats here
watch this
anybody who can throw coal into a
furnace
can learn how to program for god's sake
what president
biden wants to do is make sure those
folks
have better choices that they have
alternatives that they can be the people
who go to work to make the solar panels
that's going to require skilled work
union work and i think those kinds of
jobs are among the millions of jobs that
are being created
a lot of misleading stuff here by the
way china dominates solar panels what's
your reaction
uh senators good to have you on again
what do you think
yeah this this bill will ship jobs to
china but it's also
very cautionary that it includes 40
billion dollars for displaced workers
that tells you all you need to know
about the number of workers it intends
to displace in our country and this bill
is absolutely wrong for america
wow so it has taxpayer payouts for
people who lose their jobs
in the ship to green energy that's a
that's an important point you just made
kelly liefler thanks for joining us it's
good to have you on come back soon
