over half of the population in atlanta is black. the revenue loss from the all-star game going away could total more than $100 million in lost tourism revenue to the area according to one official. but when you're looking at the voting laws, the reason why mlb moved the game out of georgia to colorado, when you compare the two states, colorado has fewer days of early voting than georgia. 15 days to georgia's 17. both states require a valid i.d. to vote by mail and in person. they also both allow no excuse vote by mail. but politicians on the local level in georgia could be having the biggest impact on businesses that are choosing to take a political position on this. georgia house voted to strip delta, one of the outspoken corporations of millions of dollars in tax breaks. the georgia senate still has to weigh in on this before the bill potentially could land on the governor's desk for him to sign offer on. but the bottom line is, there can be consequences on the local level for these corporations. we also, david, did reach out to m

telling them that he was not going to do that citing the mlb decision to pull the all-star game out of atlanta over the controversial election law he said it's shameful that america's pastime is getting involved in politics. >> thank you grady, great to see you a dozen for us on fox business. "the evening edit" starts right now. liz: president biden'snd p big x incentive plan hitting a wall oe the senate up to seven senate democrats may reject the bidens tax hike that is according to joe manchin. it could be dead on arrival in the senate the president i didn't under without explaining that. if that's so why are they using tax shelters to avoid hundreds of thousands of dollars in personal income payroll taxes as republicans point out with us now ron johnson, congressman tom emmert and buddy carter, jim trusty, art del cueto and we have more on the fighting family long history of using frequent use of off-balance shell companies to bury the cash from dealmakingre overseas. plus hunter bidens big 180 he does not remember if he owned the infamous laptop at the center of multiple probes. but he adm

now that you have joe biden even claiming that it may be good for the all-star game to move out of atlanta, here is the question i have, who does that help? who does the boycotts help with this not help the georgians who plan to work that event, maybe the hospitality industry that they're going to make up some losses financial losses they had during covid, there is a reason even stacy abrams came out and said these boycotts are harming the people they say they're trying to help. i don't understand the game plan other to say this is a long push for changes on a lateral level federal level hr when i think that's with her ultimate pushing for. before you invoke the phrase of old which is worse than jim crow. jim porro on steroids which is historically illiterate. so kevin i want to come to you. i understand you probably do not support the law, but shouldn't president biden not lie about the law? he was last week in a press conference making statements about what was in this legislation involving what he said was curtailing boating hours on voting day to target workers. it turned out that was

atlanta's mayor was talking about it earlier tonight. with major league baseball taking the all-star game out of atlanta, a city that has 30% of its small businesses owned by african-americans. it will be a huge short-term blow to move the all-star game out of the state in july. the companies are trying to do positive things for long-term positive social movement and social action changes and that is a positive. about you in the short-term it will be painful for georgia. >> thank you to the three of you kicking us off tonight. coming up, the defense has their best day yet at the derek chauvin trial, but is it enough to leave a reasonable doubt with the jury? and later, why is one state head and shoulders above everyone in new covid cases? we will ask a doctor on the front lines there tonight.

one, this is not a new dynamic in atlanta. atlanta is the home of the late hank aaron who we lost in january who if this track record is any indication would have had something to say about this voting law and it's not only the process it went through in the legislature but also the passage. he would have spoken out against that. so baseball is the sport where jackie robinson broke the color barrier. baseball is proud of that. atlanta is proud of being the city too busy to hate and there is a real question here as to whether or not the city is going to live up to that moniker now. companies like delta and coca-cola have long been part of what has made -- given atlanta that reputation, that made atlanta and georgia a place that's been able to point to southern neighbors and say we are not south carolina, we are not alabama. we are not mississippi. and now i think the confluence of atlanta and baseball given their kind of -- what they hold -- both of them holding themselves out to be markers of racial progress that confluence ha

just imagine taking a high-speed train chicago to atlanta. most americans wouldn't imagine doing that trip by rail and that's less than beijing and shanghai and they built the most popular high-speed rail line in the world. but just not chicago and atlanta but nashville, indianapolis, all these cities in between that have been left out of this next generation economy. that's why high-speed rail is so significant. yes, i'll be fighting for more but we'll take what we can get and be a start. >> i got to say having traveled orr in europe that's a wonderful high-speed rail from city to city and see the country that way so i applaud those efforts. let's talk about what senator mcconnell is saying about the plan generally. >> as much as we would like to address infrastructure, it is not going to get sun port from our side because i think what the economy -- the last thing the economy needs right now is a big whopping tax increase on all the productive sections of our economy. >> with that no support approach from republicans is this plan going to h
