But the speech will not include a promise declaration. After pledging to formally label the epidemic a National Emergency, hes scaling back. A white house official confirmed the president will name it a Public Health emergency. That is a less sweeping declaration than the president suggested earlier. Major garrett is at the white house with the latest on this story. Major, good morning. Good morning. President trump had a choice, declare a National Emergency or a Public Health emergency. The first linked to hurricanes, big natural disasters. The second linked to infectious diseases. We last declared one 2009 to fight swine flu. Both declarations envision shortterm intervepgs vention.

Puerto ricos governor asking the department of Homeland Security to audit how a Small Montana Power Company landed a 300 Million Contract to help restore electric service. It was recently revealed Whitefish Energy appears to have tied to interior secretary ryan zinke and to President Trumps election effort. You julianna goldman. Julianna, good morning. Good morning. The power grid was vulnerable because its government Power Company fileded for bankrupt i in july, yet it still awarded a 300 million no bid contract to a 2yearold company that had only two employees at the time. As the island of puerto rico attempts to pull itself out of the dark, lawmakers in both parties want to know why and how whi Whitefish Energy was tasked to help rebuild power lines on the island. We dont have enough information. Reporter republican congressman rob bishop chairs the House Committee that overseas puerto rico. How it was done. Needs to be greater transparency. Reporter Whitefish Energys largest previous federal contract was for only 1. 3 million to upgrade power lines in arizona. This appears to be a pretty small company. Are they capable of doing the job that i think theyre being asked. Reporter on wednesday, san juans mayor took on the company on twitter, writing, what are they afraid we will find. Whitefish responded, weve got 44 linemen building power lines in your city and 40 more men just arrived. Do you want us to send them back or keep working . Whitefish has since apologized for that tweet. Hi, im andy, founder and ceo of Whitefish Energy. Reporter the companys ties to the administration are under scrutiny. Techmanski knows interior secretary zinke. The Energy Company is backed by hbc investment. Its founder Joe Colonnetta gave 33,000 of then governor, now energy secretary, rick perry. Colonnetta gave 28,200 to support President Trumps electi election. The Energy Department did not respond to our questions. The Energy Department and zinke says the company play nod role in the contract. They say they got the job, in part, because they were willing to take less money up front than the other company that was being considered. Norah. All right, julianna, thank you. President trump has slammed the democrats and Hillary Clinton because they helped pay for Controversial Research into his ties to russia. She denied it. Everybody denied it. Now theyre sort of scooting around, trying to figure out what to say. So they spent, if you think of it, almost 6 million on Something Like that, and i think honestly i just think its a disgrace. A source familiar with the Clinton Campaign said the former president ial candidate learned of the socalled steele dossier in january when buzzfeed First Published it. Records show over a sevenmonth period, the Democratic National committee and Clinton Campaign together paid more than 8 billion to the law firm that commissioned the dossier. Its unclear how much of that money went towards the research. People flying from overseas will experience new security measures starting this morning. The stricter rules apply to all u. S. Bound flights and are aimed at responding to threats of hidden explosives. People from the u. S. And other countries could be interviewed by airline employees and face more detailed inspections of their electronic devices. This measure will affect 325,000 passengers a day.

These new measures replace the temporary laptop ban impacting planes from ten airports in eight predominantly muslim countries that include saudi arabia, turkey, kuwait, qatar, the united arab emirate, jordan and morocco. Now, its also domestic changes that were looking at. The tsa is reminding folks to give themselves extra time, because at that tsa checkpoint, instead of just taking out your laptop, anything bigger than a cell phone will also have to be taken out of your carryon and put in separate bins. So, again, its all about knowing that you could be spending more time going through the security at airports across the country. All right, jericka, thank you.

Bowe bergdahl a rifled at the fort bragg courthouse where he came facetoface with men who went on dangerous rescue missions to find him.

On the stand, he described the moments following his injury. It hurt really bad. I thought i was dead. He survived, but his military career was over. I felt like, you know, maybe if id have done things a little bit differently, not gotten hurt, you know, the mission wouldnt have failed. Reporter in 2015, hatch talked about his injury and bergdahl. He needs to know, you know, how much was risked. Reporter the judge is considering a motion to drop the case over President Trumps comments on bergdahl. On the campaign trail, then candidate trump called him a traitor who should be shot. You know, the old days, boom, firing squad, no, its true. Reporter the judge ruled in february he has not been influenced by President Trump. Adding those comments were made when the president was still a civilian candidate.

Reporter army evaluators concluded that bergdahl suffered from a schizotypal personality disorder. His lawyers want the judge to consider that, as the judge weighs what kind of sentence to give bergdahl, which could be up to life behind bars. Mark, thank you.

President trump wants tax cuts and republicans are divided over how to pay for them. Only on cbs this morning we will talk to senator tim scott about popular deductions that could be slashed. Plus, how four women in West Virginia are fighting the Opioid Crisis with the power of hope. First, here is todays eye opener at 8 00. President trump plans an important address on the deadly Opioid Epidemic a white house official c confirms the president will name it an emergency this comes as the president says he is not presiding over a divided Republican Party President Trump slammed the democrats and Hillary Clinton because they helped pay for Controversial Research into his ties with russia how a Small Montana company landed a 300 million account contract to restore electric service Bowe Bergdahl suffered from a personality disorder.

He would go around giving handwritten notes instead of tips which i think explains why my barber always gave him this haircut. [ cheering and applause ] thats pretty funny. That is very funny. Im charlie rose with gayle king and norah odonnell. President trump puts a spotlight on the countrys Opioid Epidemic today, clairing a Public Health emergency. He considered a stronger declaration of a National Emergency. The president promised in august to make fighting the crisis a top priority. After a 60 minutes Washington Post investigation earlier this month, mr. Trump said the country has a drug problem and he wants to get the response right. I did see the report. Were going to look into the report. We are going to take it very seriously because were going to have a major announcement probably next week on the drug crisis and on the opioid massive problem. An estimated 142 million americans die every day from drug overdoses. Most of those are from opioids. President trumps declaration needs specific congressional funding. President trump insists theres unity in the Republican Party despite intense criticism from some gop senators. Politic sincere a rough business, no question about it. I will say this. I think the Republican Party has a pretty good unity. Republican divisions could put more of the president s legislative agenda in jeopardy. That includes perhaps his most prized priority, tax reform. The house plans to rote today on the senates budget bill that would clear the way for tax reform. That proposed tax plan is expected to be released on wednesday. Major garretts at the white house. Good morning. Reporter good morning. President trump has made sport of criticizing fellow republicans. He has called out onefifth of the Senate Republican conference for one reason or another. As we all remember, republican divisions help cinco balm ah care repeal. Republicans will try to hold it together on tax cuts, but that will take doing because there are disagreements. For example, some top House Republicans want to lower the maximum amount you can put into a 401 k retirement account tax free. The president said earlier this week, there will be no change to your 401 k . Well, now thats open for negotiation. The president also wants to eliminate Tax Deductions for state and local taxes, but more than 50 House Republicans from hightax states may well object. We still have no idea the income levels for future tax brackets or whether there will be three tax brackets or four. A new poll shows 35 of americans say they do not have any confidence in republicans or democrats to take care of taxes. Now, House Republicans have promised, charlie, some clarity on all of this by releasing their tax bill next week. Thanks, major. With us from capitol hill only on cbs this morning is republican senator tim scott of South Carolina. He was with obamacare trump to promote increasing the child tax credit. Good morning. Good morning. Good to meet with you. Thank you. What is the single most divisive issue with respect to deductions or whatever it is among republicans that might threaten passage of this bill . Well, hopefully theres nothing that will threaten the passage of this bill. However, there are a number of itemized deductions people will see as sacred cows. So we will have to go through the process of understanding and appreciating the impact that will have on your on ability to lower taxes for the average hardworking person in the middle class. Where do you stand on capping the deduction for 401 k s . In other words, should wealthy americans get that deduction . I spent 20 years in the Financial Services industry, so im a huge fan of making sure that we preserve the retirements incentive. If you think about it this way, in South Carolina the average South Carolina rest debt has about one years of income in his or her retirement account. That is not good news. We need to make sure we continue to encourage Retirement Savings so that fewer people are challenged while theyre in their as i used to call it, the third half of their life, the part of their life where they get to enjoy the benefits of school and work. Now, the New York Times has described this tax reform plan as the glue holding the party together, adding this analogy. It is a bit like having a baby to save a failing marriage. What do you think will happen if the tax reform plan doesnt pass and has the Republican Party learned anything from the failure to repair and replace obamacare that they could use in the tax reform plan to make sure they have more success there . Well, a, im confident that this plan will pass. B, what weve learned through our previous failures is how to get it right. The reality of it is the house, the senate and the white house, weve been talking for months about tax reform. We were not all on the same page during the health care debate. We are on the same page as relates to tax reform. Now we have to work out the unique nuances between each plan, but the good news is we are looking at getting it done by thanksgiving so folks will have a great opportunity to understand what it is were doing for them by the time we get to the holidays. You have had two colleagues in the senate speak out against President Trump and the mood in the country. Where do you stand on that . How serious of a division is there within the Republican Party . Well, theres one thing thats certain with the Republican Party, that we are not a Homogeneous Group of folks who all think exactly the same, which is good news for the American People. The tent is big enough for a lot of diverse opinions within the party. At the same time, the focus of the Republican Party is not on the party. It is on the American People. We have sometimes strong differences on how we believe we bridge the gap to make sure that the average person has a Better Future than they had a good past. So for us to get there, theres going to be some disagreements. I think thats actually healthy for the party and, frankly, healthy for the country as long as we remember were one country. Do you agree with the criticism from senator flake and senator corker . Im not going to get into the criticisms of any specific senator or any individual. What i know is that healthy debate is they for us to challenge some of the highest and highest priorities of the American People and the largest issues that loom large for our country. Healthy for someone from your party to say the president of the United States is a danger to democracy, that it is a sickness thats contagious, thats healthy . Well, what is healthy for our country is for us to debate tax credits. I know it is certainly popular for news to talk about the differences and dividing the party. Im not going to jump into that with you guys. What i will do is focus my attention and my responsibility first to take care of the American People as relates to tax reform and other major issues. The spats between individuals, thats not my priority nor my objective to get involved in those spats. What is my objective is to make sure we are sincere, consistent and clear with the American People on my priorities for the American People. Senator, can you pledge that the tax reform or tax cut will be revenue neutral and wont add to the debt . Well, yes, so there are i think the answer is, of course. If you look at the impact of lowering the impediments for economic and dynamic growth, you will have an opportunity to experience more Economic Activity, that more Economic Activity meaning people will spend more money. If you give folks 25 more in their paycheck, theyre going to spend 25. That activity is without question real. With a small increase in activity, well see ourselves with a stronger, more dynamic economy. Senator scott, we thank you for taking time to join us this morning. We really do appreciate that. Absolutely. Thank you. Thanks. Four West Virginia hurt by the Opioid Epidemic are working every day to fight it. Ahead, how volunteers known as the hope dealers help heroin addicts get the treatment they need when no one else is America Needs 50,000 new Truck Drivers on the highway by the enof this year. Chris van cleave hit the road to learn why. Reporter trucking drives the u. S. Economy, moving more than twothirds of the goods we buy every year, but theres a growing shortage of Truck Drivers .

This morning were looking at the growing shortage of Truck Drivers, more than 70 of the goods we consume are carried on the nations highways. A new report says the Industry Needs to hire roughly 90,000 new truckers each year to keep up with demand. Kris van cleave shows us why so many of those jobs arent filled and why it would drive up costs for you. Reporter the american trucker carries our country. Nothing we get isnt touched by a truck. Reporter they say truckers drive the american economy. If thats the case, we could be in trouble. 50,000 more drivers are needed by the end of 2017 and that number could more than triple in 10 years. When we are buying more stuff out there, whether it is cars, refrigerators, you name it, we are putting that in trucks and that will exacerbate the shortage we have. Reporter bob costello is chief economist for the Industry Trade Group American trucking associations. Once we hit that 100,000 mark, thats where we start to see problems throughout the economy. Reporter problems like product shortages, delivery delays and higher prices. Demographics are largely behind the shortfall, but the lifestyle, including extended periods away from home can also be a major deterrent. Reporter theres a sense people dont want to be Truck Drivers. Why do you think it is . It is a hard life. I mean i got a 36inch box im sleeping in in the back of my truck most nights. I get hotels from time to time, but you have to want to do it. You have to want to travel, go different places, see Different Things and deal with different people every day. Reporter we met Greg Gedenberg waiting for his rig tore repaired outside of iowa. That gives him and drivers like Jennifer Gausman a lot of bargaining power. Reporter how hard was it to find a Truck Driving job. It is a matter of making phone calls and see what Company Works around what you want, your home time, the pay, how long you have to be out. Some companies when you first start you have to be out there six months. I didnt want that. Reporter iowa 80 doesnt typically allow recruiters here at the truck stop because they fear it would turn into a frenzy. Instead, once a year they hold a truckers jamboree where recruiters are allowed to come in. This year more than 44,000 people retended. We found a rail recruiter at the truck show in dallas. It is what i would call hypercompetitive and we feel it every day. We always say yesterday was our easiest day. Reporter his Company Hopes to attract new drivers including millennials by paying them to get a commercial drivers license and complete on the job training. I think if they want to hire more drivers they have to increase the pay. Reporter fleets are raising wages and offering incentives to attract drivers, but pressure to keep shipping costs down has put a damper on compensation. Linkedins chip cutter. If you look at the data, a truck driver in 2006 was making more than he makes in 2016 if you factor in the cost of living. It is a couple of hundred dollars difference, but it shows that it has not increased to address shortage. Reporter that pay puts median pay just over 41,000. Still, many see trucking as a better way of life. The trucking Industry Needs to convince tens of thousands more to hit the room. Kris van cleave, walcott, iowa. One truck driver told me this once, i never forgot. When you look around your room and your house and your job, theres inning in this place that didnt get here without a truck. Yeah.

I told you the story when i got hired on the young the restless. I remember the date in 1994. Cbs has been so good to me. I felt like my career is school. Young the restless was high school. Criminal minds was college. And this is graduate school. You called it your dream job. I had been so focused work and there was this void on my personal life. I traveled. I went to sydney, australia. I traveled. I want to recharge. I hung out with kangaroos, jumped off water falls. I made gut decisions. I went to college. Im smart. I made bad decisions. Wrong people in my life. These people and these entities dont see the bigger vision and that saying if you love something let it go and it will come back. All the right people and opportunities came back. One of them being s. W. A. T. Im smart enough to know and humnt enough that i cant do it all by me. I cant do it by myself. I get to be an actor. I get to lead other actors. The other actor gets to be the lead over the team, promoting diversity, changing the system. Thats what i like about that clip too. Its not only a good drama. He comeses across as this leader when theres a lot of talk about it, that a white officer accidentally shoots a black teenager and this is obviously a discussion thats going on. So how do you handle that with the show . Im very excited about s. W. A. T. And i need people to know right out of the gate that the only difference between the movie, its the same theme and the same theme song. But what people may not be expecting, trust me, its all there, echlk of your seat. But its also based on reality today.

They are suspected of Sexual Assault and robberies at bay area working brothels. Three schools in San Francisco have tested positive for high levels of lead in the water. They are west portal elementary school, Malcolm X Elementary School, and San Francisco International High school. Sfpuc says that the lead is coming from the pipes and plumbing fixtures at the schools.

Stick around; well have weather and traffic in just a moment. 8 57. Expect delays if you are traveling along 680 this morning or getting ready to. We have an accident right near willow pass road and the ride continues to be slow as you transition towards 242. Its about a 15minute ride on down towards highway 24. Speaking of highway 24, heres a live look. This is near telegraph and we have 26 Minute Travel time between 680 and 580. Heavy over to the bay bridge toll plaza. Jampacked still in the red, 26 minutes as you make your way from the maze into San Francisco. And 880 heading through oakland, still looks like a parking lot on that northbound side. 49 minutes from 238 on up towards the maze. Hats a check of your traffic; over to you. Calm conditions out there, barely a breeze, barely a ripple out on the waters. Wow, it sure is pretty though. Clear skies, temperatures in the 60s already for concord and San Francisco. San jose 65 degrees right now. Heres what you can expect to see today. So san jose broke a record yesterday at 90 degrees. That may happen again today. Inland areas expecting to be in the upper 80s, low 90s. Sunny and dry around the bay. The mid80s. And then at the beaches, slightly cooler conditions than what we had yesterday. So all of this is going to change. Not to worry for the weekend. We are getting some cooling to come on through and then look, eight to 10 days out, there is a system that could bring us some rain in our forecast but well have to wait for that.
