3691 - Bernie & AOC Rally For El-Sayed; The Roots Of Vaccine Hesitancy w/ Kira Ganga Kieffer

Welcome back to The Majority Report

On today's program:

Senator Bernie Sanders and Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez travel to Michigan to rally for Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed and House candidate Will Lawrence.

Bernie and AOC both emphasized the $50M in dark money being spent on Haley Stevens' campaign. AOC asks if anyone believes that this money does not come with expectations from the donors. Bernie says this Senate race is not between Stevens and El-Sayed but El-Sayed and the billionaire class.

Kira Ganga Kieffer, visiting Assistant Professor of Religious Studies at Fairfield University, joins the program for a conversation about her book, "Unvaccinated Under God: Religion and Vaccine Hesitancy in Modern America".
