WE'RE BACK WITH CONGRESSWOMAN-ELECT CORI BUSH.

YOU TOUCHED ON THIS EARLIER WITH THE IDEA OF SHOPG IN A THRIFT

STORE, BUT IT CAN BE EXPENSIVE NOT ONLY TO RUN FOR CONGRESS BUT

THEN TO BE A CONGRESSWOMAN, ESPECIALLY A CONGRESSWOMAN, AS

OPPOSED TO A CONGRESSMAN, BECAUSE THE MAN CAN WEAR THE

SAME THING EVERY DAY.

YOU HAVE TO GO GET YOUR OWN OUTFITS FOR THIS WHOLE NEW WORLD

THAT YOU'RE GOING DOWN IN, IN CAPITOL HILL.

AND I UNDERSTAND YOU GOT SOME ADVICE FROM A.ON.

C.

WHAT DID SHE TELL YOU?

>> YEAH, I DID.

FIRST OF ALL, SHE JUMPED ON IT.

SHE WAS LIKE, HEY, YOU KNOW, I'M THRIFTING, TOO.

AND WE CAN GO SHOPPING TOGETHER."

AND SO-- AND THEN, NOT ONLY-- NOT ONLY ALEX, BUT EANNA

PRESSLEY, ALL OF THEM JUMPED IN.

LIKE, "HEY, THIS IS WHAT WE DO."

JOHANNA HAYES.

IT'S LIKE I HAVE A FAMILY OF FOLKS TO GO THRIFTING WITH ME.

BUT THE THING IS, WHETHER YOU KNOW MY SHIRT IS FROM THE THRIFT

STORE OR NOT I'M GOING TO LOOK BAD EITHER WAY.

PEOPLE HAVE TO UNDERSTAND, YOU WILL FIND SOME TREASURES IN

THRIFT STORES.

>> Stephen: SO YOU GET SWORN IN A LITTLE OVER A MONTH FROM

NOW ON JANUARY 3.

WHAT WILL BE YOUR FIRST PRIORITY ONCE IN OFFICE?

>> SO IT HAS TO BE COVID-19 RELIEF.

COVID IS STILL DEVASTATING COMMUNITIES.

IT HAS HIT MY DISTRICT IN ST. LOUIS.

ST. LOUIS IS AT THE CENTER OF EVERYTHING I DO.

AND ST. LOUIS IS HIT HARD, ALONG WITH OUR STATE.

WE DON'T HAVE A MASK MANDATE, SO WE'RE GOING THROUGH SO MUCH

RIGHT NOW.

SO $2,000-A-MONTH STIMULUS CHECK FOR EVERY PERSON.

PLUS MAKING SURE THAT THERE IS A REAL MORATORIUM ON EVICTIONS,

THAT WE'RE CANCELLING SHUT-OFFS.

AND ALSO WE HAVE TO THINK ABOUT OUR YOUTH.

WE HAVE TO HAVE A NATIONAL BROADBAND.

WE HAVE TO PUT MONEY INTO EDUCATION.

WITH EDUCATION WE'RE TALKING ABOUT MONEY FOR TUTOR.

MONEY FOR STUDENTS THAT HAVE THE HYBRID OR ONLINE LEARNING SO

THAT THEY CAN HAVE LUNCH AT HOME BECAUSE THEY WOULD HAVE HAD IT

AT SCHOOL AND THAT MIGHT HAVE BEEN THEIR ONLY MEAL.

DO THEY HAVE THE EQUIPMENT THEY NEED.

THE KIDS THAT NEED LAPTOPS, DO THEY HAVE A LAPTOP?

DO THEY HAVE A TABLE TO PUT IT ON?

ALL OF THESE THINGS ARE THINGS WE HAVE TO THINK ABOUT RIGHT

NOW.

WE HAVE TO DO THAT.

THERE HAS TO BE A BETTER INFRASTRUCTURE IN PLACE.

>> Stephen: GOOD LUCK AND CONGRATULATIONS AGAIN AND WE'LL

ALL BE WATCHING JANUARY 3 WHEN YOU'RE IN THERE.

GIVE THEM HELL.

TROUBLE.

>> Stephen: CONGRESSWOMAN-ELECT CORI BUSH, EVERYBODY!

WE'LL BE RIGHT BACK, THANKS SO MUCH.
