The following is a transcript of an interview with Sen. John Fetterman, Democrat of Pennsylvania, that aired on May 5, 2024.
MARGARET BRENNAN: That was our Mark Strassmann and we turn now to Pennsylvania senator John Fetterman. He joins us from Orlando, Florida this morning where he spent the weekend campaigning on behalf of President Biden's reelection. Welcome to the show, Senator. SEN.
No, no, I don't think that but- but I will- I will say that these kinds of protests haven't been helpful. And ironically, they are actually working against peace in the Middle East as well. And it's also very strange to me, that now they're not actually protesting for a ceasefire now, and there's been a very valid ceasefire that's been on the table now and Hamas has been refused to take that on.
I don't- I don't disagree with that. I was one of the- the co-leaders and sponsors of that bill. So I'm, of course I'm gonna vote yes on that. And I think it's a very valid concern that really allowed that- that- I mean, that's an overwhelming vote, a bipartisan vote in the House as well. I think it's- it's- it's a great bill, and I look forward to voting for it.
It's not- it's not working.MARGARET BRENNAN: Okay. All right. I'll ask one more time. Sir, if you can hear me.SEN.
