he said yes and your new democratic colleague, jon ossoff said the language you're proposing risks american children being denied emergency aid during this crisis. do you share those concerns about those kids? >> poppy, this was a amendment that we basically reiterated current law that we passed at the end of the year. and what we did at the end of years is make sure if there is one undocumented person in the household, they are able to get financial help and so on even if there are others that are undocumented. and of course children, american children, of course. >> but if there is not, if there are children of one or two undocumented immigrants in the house, those children, according to your vote here, would not get the aid. i'm asking about what the kids? should they get anything. >> i actually disagree with that. first of all i support comprehensive immigration reform and making sure that everyone is legally documented is getting support and help in recognizing for their value and our economy and our society. and certainly children right now are able to do that. there are ways to do th

my question is why does raphael warnock have to run for re-election after only two years and jon ossoff does not? >> mr. bleak, thank you for this wonderfully astute question. let me tell you, young man, you might have a bright future as a political scientist because i've got a lot of my older viewers asking me the very same thing. i promise you it's not as shady as it seems. warnock is up for re-election next year bauns because when he replaced kelly loeffler, she had replaced a retiring senator whose term was up in 2022. so during the election cycle the georgian people couldn't decide who to send to the senate. when ossoff beat david perdue, they were running for a full six-year term. that's why ossoff is safe. at least until you get to middle school, bleak. that's when the midterms hit. as for that former david perdue, he made news by saying he will not be challenging warnock in 2022. in notes to his supporters, he went out of his way to proclaim georgia was not a blue state. you could have fooled me. never mind it sent two democrats to the senate. and according to an nbc news analys
