capitol. welcome it our viewers in the united states and all around the world. this is "early start." i'm laura jarrett. >> and i'm christine romans. it's wednesday, march 10th, good morning, everyone. in nearly a year since the pandemic hit this could be one of the most consequential days in american history. the president's $1.9 trillion recovery plan is near. and defying health experts by dropping public health measures. >> as for the recovery package it could deliver a generational transformation of the economy. poll after poll shows broad public support but the measure has no republican backing in the house or the senate. daniella diaz is live on capitol hill with the very latest, daniella, good morning. huge day on capitol hill. >> reporter: good morning, laura. that's right, the house is going to vote on this massive stimulus package today marking the last step before it ends up on biden's desk and he signs this legislation into law. this is a major achievement for the bind biden administration. show they could put cash in the hands of working families devastated by the pandemic. and he had to walk a tricky line to moderate democrats and progressive democrats to get both sides to sign on to support this legislation as you noted because no republicans supported this legislation when it went through the house the first time. and when the senate voted on this after the house. and we're not expecting any republicans to sign on to this legislation today during the final vote before it ends up on biden's desk. this was a full-party line vote. and house speaker nancy pelosi dismissed any notion that there will be any drama within democrats when this goes through the house today for the last step. we are watching closely progressive democrats who weren't happy that this $15 minimum wage increase was not included in this legislation. but we're expecting them to support this legislation and sign on anyway. and biden is planning on having a prime time address tomorrow night where he will mark the one year anniversary since the covid-19 shutdown. he's also going to jump on air force one and travel across the country to meet with americans directly to convince them despite the large price tag on the legislation it will help americans directly. and he's also expected to address a joint congress next month where he will lay out the new york stock exchange administrative priorities of his legislation where we're expecting infrastructure to come up. that's likely where congress will work on that as a priority for the biden administration. >> daniella, thank you. this relief bill is expected to help millions, again, with no republican support. congressman ryan wants to know why. >> heaven forbid that we pass something that's going to help the damn workers of the united states of america. weapon talk about pension, you complain. we talk about the minimum wage increase, you complain. we talk about giving them the right to organize, you complain. but if we were passing a tax cut here you'd be all getting in line to vote yes for it. now stop talking about dr. seuss and start working with us on behalf of the american workers. >> make no mistake this legislation is transformative and temporary. and it is geared towards low-income americans. the expanded tax cut credit, to readd rate income equality and cut child poverty in half. a single mother with one child could see $1500 when you add the tax credit. and put it all together and the tax policy center says a low income household with children would see an average tax cut of nearly $7700 raising their after tax income after 35%. 35% raise for working families. there's money for housing aid. incentives for paid sick leave. increase in food stamps through september. money for vaccine programs, and schools. and jobless benefits that lasts through the fall. and the first $200 of that tax free. and agriculture, disadvantaged farmers, a quarter of whom are black, with expanded plans for health care under the affordable care act. the bill makes insurance more affordable, full little be president biden's key promising. breaking overnight, public school etchers in los angeles striking a deal to resume in-person learning. under the plan, teachers will be given the chance to get vaccinated before april. high schools will be good to open by end of the april. los angeles is home to the country's second largest public school district with more than 600,000 students. >> but potentially deadly step backward in texas today. a statewide mask mandate covering 29 million people ends, even though health experts warn this move is premature. some texas cities are keeping their mask rules in place, despite the lack of the statewide policy. cnn has reporters covering the pandemic now coast to coast. >> reporter: i'm dan simon in houston where on wednesday, the state will officially lift its mask mandate and allow businesses to open up at 100% capacity. governor greg abbott made the decision. for now, though, the decision might be more symbolic as it appears most businesses will still require customers to wear masks. critics call misguided in part because the state has one of the highest positivity rates in the nation at nearly 15%. >> reporter: i'm martin savidge in atlanta. the governor of alabama said she's ordering up the national guard so that people in rural areas can begin receiving the coronavirus vaccine saying we need to use every tool in our toolkit, so that we can get covid-19 behind us. governor kay ivey says she has order the national guard to set up vaccination sites in 24 count this starting on march 23rd. the alabama guard says it has the capability of fielding two rotating vaccination sites, each with the ability to deliver about 1,000 doses a day. >> reporter: i'm erica hill. vermont is expanding eligibility for the vaccine to household members who accompany black, indigenous and people of color to their vaccination appointments. it's all part of an effort to expand equity and access throughout the state. that new policy goes in effect next week. >> reporter: i'm kristen holmes in washington, d.c., more states are expanding that vaccine eligibility as more doses are coming on the market. in louisiana and vermont, as soon as today, anyone over 16 with pre-existing condition will be eligible to receive a vaccine. for vermont, this comes a week ahead of their scheduled time line. in minnesota, they've announced that two phases will be opening at once. this will allow anyone with pre-existing condition, as well as those meat plant processing workers to be eligible for the vaccine. all of this coming on the heels of one of florida's largest health systems opening up their vaccine eligibility as well. now, we expect to see more and more of this as vaccine makers continue to promise a surge in doses by the end of the month. >> in alaska, now the first state to eliminate all eligibility requirements for a vaccine. it will be made available to every resident 16 and older. access to shot has been pretty uneven. some states still reserving them for older adults and other high-risk groups. >> the fbi releasing new video of the person wanted for planting the pipe bombs at the rnc and dnc headquarters a night before the capitol insurrection some two months ago. this is the clearest look yet at the suspect walking down sidewalks and alleys before planting the bombs. the fbi is offering $100,000 reward for information leading them to the suspect. the wanted poster includes these nike shoes you can see. the bombs were rigged with a one-hour timing device. it didn't go off. but that undercuts the theory that the bombs were meant to divert officials before the mob

the numbers are big, time, space and resources are not. our cnn's ed lavandera has more from dallas. >> reporter: christine and laura, there is clear information that the biden administration is facing emergency along the southern border. according to data reviewed by cnn there are now about 3400 unabout companied minors in the custody of customs and border protection. and now arrested 100,000 people in the four weeks leading up to march 3rd, and that is the highest number in that same time period that we've seen in at least the last five years. so there are significant changes going on that we're witnessing along the u.s. southern border. and that is putting.biden administration under a great deal of scrutiny and intense fire. not only from republicans here in texas but also some democrats that are saying this is starting to reach a crisis level. the biden administration refuses to say this is a crisis. they say they're trying to take a much more humanitarian -- administration. but clearly, the numbers are starting to go up along the southern border. as more and more migrants are making their way to the united states. christine and laura. >> ed lavandera,

royal rift ever been repaired. cnn's anna stewart live in windsor with the latest. now, we have heard not just from the palace, but from the queen herself, anna. >> reporter: we have, it's been 40 hours since the interview broke off. royal sources telling us the palace wanted to get it right and wanted to give the british public a chance to watch the interview and absorb it. this is a short statement, three very short paragraphs but my goodness, it's loaded. it says the royal family is saddened to learn the full extent of how challenging the last few years have been for harry and meghan. and the issues raised particularly that of race are concern, while some recollections may vary, they are taken very seriously and will be addressed by the family privately. harry, meghan and archie will always be much loved family members. they have learned the full extent the challenges the couple faces and suggests they weren't fully aware. also that line recollections may vary. a very diplomatic way of saying perhaps some the accounts of harry and meghan are certainly not as they saw them. this will be dealt with privately. this is the last we will hear of this, as we are led to believe, and that is really an attempt to draw a line under this. and that final line, i think, hoping for reconciliation, saying they'll always love harry and meghan and archie. that-l this be enough to stem the outrage around the world particularly around the royal family. i'm not sure. if anyone expected an apology, they will be disappointed. this is far more an acknowledgement. prince charles was out on an official visit in a vaccination center in london. inevitably, someone -- very statement, it says exactly what the royal family wants to say, and it's cleverly worded and no off-the-cuff remarks. i think the questions will be asked of the royal family on their engagements and they'll continue to dodge it. perhaps they've outworn the statement, some people will draw parallels again on how princess diana was treated by the royal family and how harry and meghan are treated now. >> anna stewart for us at windsor. thank you. laura. well, the royal family isn't the only one dealing were

the senate. daniella diaz is live on capitol hill with the very latest, daniella, this is coming just in the nick of time as unemployment benefits are set to expire in four days. >> reporter: that's right, laura, the house is set to vote on this landmark legislation, this mass live $1.9 trillion covid relief package where it will land on biden's desk to sign the legislation into law. this legislation is a major achievement for the biden administration. they wanted to help americans directly to put cash into the hands of working class and poor families devastated by this pandemic. and biden had to navigate very tricky relationships in congress with moderate democrats and progressive democrats to be able to have them bone sign on to this legislation. and as you noted, there's

parliamentarian ruled it could not be included. some democrats are upset there is no republican support. in fact, a passionate tim ryan took to the house floor to scold republicans for not supporting
