we talk about march 16, 8 people were killed in and around atlanta in six of them women of asian descent. on monday a 65 -year-old latina was brutally attacked in new york and was told she did not belong here by her attacker, nonsense. the men who witnessed the attack stood by and did not intervene or do anything. this is all makes your blood boil and makes your mouth file when you see this and it's infuriating and disgusting and totally unacceptable. unfortunately, it is nothing new. such acts against asian americans and pacific islanders have been increasing and becoming all too common in our country today. one way we can stamp that out is to speak up. on tuesday president biden announced additional actions to respond to anti- asian violence. he is a leader in this area the we are all grateful for and may he respond swiftly and strongly. there is no place in our country for hatred or racism of any kind and it betrays the idea of the foundation of our very country and we, as mayors, have to condemn and must condemn and we will continue to condemn any type of hatred or racist violence in

georgia businesses under pressure after major league baseball pulls the all-star game from atlanta in protest of the state's new t voting laws, activists calling on other companies to follow their lead. jillian: ashley strohmier is here with the latest. >> good morning. president biden's economic advisor admitted georgia workers will feel the pain from the mlb's decision but said the league has the right to do it. >> there is undoubtedly going to be a cost. i think that was the point that the major league baseball was trying to make. these companies have the opportunity to vote with their feet and they're using their economic power to express their dissatisfaction. >> the mlb announced friday it would pull the game, blasting the state's restrictions on voting. govern for brian kemp refused to back down, accusing the league and other companies of saving. stacy abrams says she doesn't think it's necessary yet. ilhan omar disagrees. >> boycotts allowed for justice to be delivered in many spaces, the civil rights movement was rooted in boycotts. so our hope is that this boycott will resul

let me start by asking you, with this alleged jim crow law, they move out of atlanta and the atlanta braves >> to go to denver which is a stricter voter id law or you have to have an id to vote. what you think of all of this someone is in a major sport? >> take baseball, you've got two teams. unfortunately the astros cheated. two teams doing everything to be fair. it is a privilege to vote. let something as a u.s. citizen it is a privilege tose vote. all of those laws of gone out the door. it saddens me. use show an id to get alcohol pretty show id to get on an airplane, what's wrong with showing an id to vote? it is something we should always have to do. it is just really sad this culture that's come around. i don't understand why baseball would do that it saddens me more than anything. judge jeanine: when you look at people in professional sports there almost >> to you guys are really >> to all of these rules. how do you feel about that personally? >> they went to move the masters? the masters is where the most prestigious place in the world to play golf. they raised a town, a ton

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

i'm in manuel's tavern in the high lands area of atlanta. this tavern was hoping with a big boost during the all-star game. the owner told me it would be the first truly profitable day since the pandemic. in 65 years since the shutdown, he told employees would no longer be able to keep the business going. the community rallied around the business, keeping it alive, offering money and business to this, taking take-out orders. he was truly looking forward to the all-star game as many folks around here. in fact the cobb county tourism travel bureau said they would lose $100 million over the week, by people coming in spending money. 19,000 hotel rooms booked by major league baseball will go unused. all that money left on the table as the game shifts over to colorado. people here on the ground very disappointed in this situation happened. back to you. stuart: i can understand it. edward lawrence, thank you very much. now i want to bring in georgia state senator matt brass who joins us now. matt, you have, i think, over 3,000 delta workers in your

you've got keisha bottoms, the mayor of atlanta, who is also saying she's disappointed about it. and it is a lot of money. but again, past the money, you've got to figure this is looking through the political prizm, whether it's for business or politicians but they've got to get the story right, as kat mentioned. it's not us, it's the washington post that pointed out that people are looking at old versions of the bill and not looking at the final version and some of the details which in some cases, not all, but some cases expand voter rights. howie: yeah, media have to be careful jumping on the bandwagon to get the facts right. let me move to the pandemic. the media rhetoric heated up after the cdc chief said she was scared. >> i'm going to lose the script. i'm going to reflect on the recurring feeling i have of impending doom. howie: donald trump's former medical advisors appeared in a documentary and deborah birx described a tense call from the president. >> were you threatened? >> i would say it was a very uncomfortable conversation. he felt very strongly that i misrepresented

atlanta is 51% black. denver is 9.2% black. the mlb is moving the all-star game out of atlanta, which has more day-of-voting rights than colorado. the wokes are at it again, folks. keep in mind, he is the only african-american republican senator from the great state of south carolina. this is just an impulse reaction. these are all these companies that are patting themselves on the back saying good for us. we did the right thing. we moved out. although it is built on a lie. it is not correct information. colorado is stricter than georgia is. and guess who is hurt? guess who doesn't make the money the people who would have worked those games. own the hotels the businesses and restaurant. just crushing to all those individuals. steve: we heard from the governor of georgia yesterday regarding those people and the people of atlanta where that stadium is located, the governor said it is 51% african-american. and they are moving the all-star game to denver, colorado, where they're 10% african-american. ainsley: not even that, 9.2. st

let me start by asking you about -- with this alleged jim crow law, they move out of atlanta and they go to denver where you have a stricter i.d. law where you have to have an i.d. to vote. >> i just think take baseball. you have got two teams. unfortunately the astros cheated. you want two teams. you want everybody to be fair it's aprivilege to vote. it's something as a u.s. citizen, it's a privilege to vote. and all those laws have gone out the door. you show an i.d. to get on an airplane. what is wrong with showing an i.d. to vote? it's something that we should always have to do. it's just really sad, this culture that's come around. i don't understand why baseball would do that. i just can't figure it out. it saddens me more than anything. judge jeanine: when you look at people in professional sports, they are almost subject to the last minute changes by major league or by football, and you guys are subject to all those rules. how do you feel about that personally? >> they want to move the masters? the masters is one of the most prestigious places in the world to play golf. they r

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
