South Florida’s stake in the American Rescue Plan includes direct cash, vaccines for all, relief and stimulus for schools and businesses. The bill passed both houses of Congress by narrow, partisan margins, without a single vote in favor from Republicans.

Veteran South Florida Congressman Ted Deutch joined This Week in South Florida hosts Michael Putney and Glenna Milberg to discuss.

AVENTURA, Fla. – Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz said Thursday that she is concerned about white supremacists and militia groups that support President Donald Trump’s reelection. Wasserman Schultz said this heightened after Trump was given the opportunity to condemn them and instead addressed a right-wing extremist group and said, “Stand back and stand by.” The group’s online presence has carved out a niche as a volunteer security force for the GOP. “Trump is assembling what could be potential poll-watching patrols who are known for white supremacy and violence,” Wasserman Schultz said. Broward County Elections Department said this is part of their guidelines, which haven’t changed. Trump should be asked again to condemn white supremacy and anti-semitic, racism and he should be asked to tell his supporters to be peaceful and to not interfere with elections,” Deutch said.
