Sen. Raphael Warnock says Georgia has ‘a real choice’ ahead of face-off with Herschel Walker

Sen. Rev. Raphael Warnock, D-GA, joins Margaret Hoover to talk about the future of American democracy, his high-stakes reelection battle with football legend Herschel Walker, and his new book, “A Way Out of No Way: A Memoir of Truth, Transformation, and the New American Story.” As the findings of the January 6th Committee unfold, Warnock discusses the contrast between the America on display during the Capitol riot and the one that elected him to the Senate in Georgia the previous day. The senator, who is also a pastor at the Atlanta church where Martin Luther King Jr. once preached, speaks about the importance of voting rights reform, both in his state and in Congress. He also explains why he is backing a bipartisan compromise framework on guns that falls far short of what Democrats and the White House had sought. Looking ahead to November, Warnock details his economic agenda to counter skyrocketing consumer prices, his message to Georgia voters, and his playbook for taking on the Trump-backed Walker in a closely watched race that could again decide control of the Senate.
