Says over four years, the Drinking Water in 431 american schools were found to contain unsafe levels of lead. Today, they began testing kids in newark, new jersey, after lead was found in the water at 30 schools. Anna werner is there. Reporter Tanquir Walker brought his daughters into school today for a lead testing. I think school is the first place that they should be safe in. Thats just goes to show theyre not on tom of thip game. Reporter he joined dozens of other parents concerned about elevated lead levels found in 30 newark schools this year. And the district has now revealed 12 of the water samples taken between 2012 and 2015 have also been above the federal limit of 15 parts per billion. Doctors say no level of lead is safe for children. Valerie wilson is a newark district administrator. She blames old fixtures. We have 67 schools. They average 82 years old. The Building Infrastructure needs to be replaced. That is significant. Reporter wilson says the district has been addressing lead problems in schools water since 2004, including adding water filters. But the Teachers Union released these pictures of what it says are outdated filters, some dated 2012. Union president john abeigon i believe they pushed it to the back burner because it was not on their todo list. Reporter are you comfortable that children have not been hurt by these higher lead levels . I am not a medical expert, so i cannot provide that. I dont want anybody to think the district is not concerned about that, right. But it is not a primary source of contamination for children. Reporter now, district officials tell us tonight they disagree that those filters the union photographed were outdated but could not tell us how many filters need to be replaced. Scott, the superintendent has brought in state environmental officials to work on this problem, and children here are already drinking bottled water. Pelley anna werner, thanks. Well, the water crisis in flint, michigan, boiled over on capitol hill today. More than 150 flint children have elevated levels of lead in their blood. Democrats excorrated michigans republican governor, while republican congressmen blamed presidenpresident obamas e. P. A. Administrator. Heres adriana diaz. Adriana di. Reporter the publicking was unrelenting for michigan governor rick snyder. The buck stops at your office, governor. You are not in a medically induced coma for a year. Governor snyders administration caused this horrific disaster. Disaster. Reporter it was the first time lawmakers grilled the governor about his role in flints water crisis. Snyder admitted responsibility but blamed federal oversight. An unaccountable bureaucrats at the e. P. A. Allowed this disaster to continue unnecessarily. Reporter in april 2014, flint started pumping local river water to save money, but the improperly treated water stripped lead from pipes, doubling the number of children with lead poisoning. The governor says he only learned about the contamination 18 months after the switch. Before that, he says his own water officials told him the water was safe. E. P. A. Chief Gina Mccarthy said those same state officials misled her agency, too. From day one, the state provided our Regional Office with confusing, incomplete, and absolutely incorrect information. Reporter that wasnt good enough for republican chairman jason chaffetz. You need to take some responsibility because you screwed up and you messed up 100,000 peoples lives. Reporter 72 children have tested positive for elevated lead since october. Its an improvement over last year. But Flint Residents are still angry. Snyder got to go reporter they came to the capitol by the bus load. Melissa mays had a ringside seat. She said she was frustrated by the finger pointing but is glad somebody is listening. For the longsest time we were told we didnt matter, what was happening to us didnt dnot matter. Were seeing support from across the country and i think its going to give us more energy to keep the fight going. Reporter today, democratic congressmen called on the governor to resign and republican congressmen called on the e. P. A. Chief to resign. Congress itself may be slowing down flints recovery. A 250 million funding bill has been introduced for cities with water problems but its stalled. Pelley more tauxe than action. Adriana diaz on capitol hill. Adriana, thank you. Donald trump has over half the delegates he need for the republican nomination, but today, conservatives in his own party were searching for ways to stop him. Heres Major Garrett. The fact is we have to bring our party together. Reporter as donald trump moves closer to the 1237 delegates needed to secure the nomination, republican calls for anybody but trump are growing louder and more desperate. Today, senator lindsey graham, long a bitter adversary of ted cruz, relented and backed the texas senator. So i think the best alternative to donald trump, to stop him from getting to 1237, is ted cruz. And im going to help ted in every way i can. Reporter marco rubio, who dropped out of the race tuesday, returned to capitol hill and added to the antitrump sentiment. Hopefully, theres time to still, you know, prevent a trump nomination, which i think would fracture the party and be damaging to the conservative movement. Reporter trump needs just over half the remaining delegates to win the nomination outright. Short of that majority, republicans, those running the convention and delegates, would face the first contested Convention Since 1976, a public spectacle and last chance to stop trump. Delegates are bound to a candidate only for the first floor vote. The cruz and john kasich campaigns have already begun wrangling support in the event of a second ballot. Party rules wont be finalized until the convention and could be manipulated to benefit one candidate over another by change the way delegates are allocated or recognized to vote. G. O. P. Chairman reince priebus. Those rules are drafted by the rules committee at the convention that governs the convention. We dont use the rules that are drafted for the last convention. Reporter the oncefanciful idea of a contested convention is now so real, no Interested Party can afford not to plan ahead. The r. N. C. Is recruiting rules experts. So is trump, so are his rivals. Scott, this could be the billionaire Real Estate Developers biggest artofthedeal challenge ever. Pelley Major Garrett tonight. Major, thank you. By the way, today, Illinois State police and the chicago p. D. Dropped charges against cbs News Reporter sopan deb. Deb was covering the unrest at that canceled trump really in chicago on friday when officers pushed him to the ground and arrested him. Deb was charged with resisting, but he was cleared after a review of video and interviews with the officers. Late today, Bernie Sanders conceded the close vote in tuesdays missouri primary, meaning that Hillary Clinton swept all five states. Democrats are looking ahead now to a possible trump nomination and asking themselves whether the billionaire will help them win back the senate. Republicans have a fourseat majority, but they have 24 seats up in november, and the democrats have only 10. Heres nancy cordes. Reporter arizona senator john mccain has called trumps views uninformed and dangerous. But that hasnt stopped his Democratic Senate challenger, anne kirkpatrick, from running ads like this. No matter what donald trump says, john mccain would support him for president. Reporter new york senator Chuck Schumer warned today that strategy will be replicated in dozens of races across the country. Donald trump wont make America Great again, but he will make republicans minority again. Reporter unlike mccain, many republicans have been reluctant to outright denounce trump. They fear that weakening the likely nominee will lead Republican Voters to stay home in november, hurting g. O. P. Candidates down the ballot. But today, the senates democratic leader, harry reid, said that silence is giving his party fodder, too. Some of these people are running for reelection. Rob portman, roy blunt. I just dont know how these people could run and say why im supporting this guy for president. He cant and he cant run away from it. Hes the nominee. Reporter republicans point out theyre the ones seeing record turnout in the primaries, while democratic turnout is down. But, scott, democrats insist that if trump is the nominee, their base will flock to the polls in november to vote against him. Pelley nancy, thank you. An american who joined isis and surrendered in Northern Iraq this week spoke today about his ordeal. Mohamed jamal khweis is a palestinian american from virginia. He says he joined the terror group in december and quickly figured out the lifestyle was not for him. At the time, i i made the decision to go because i wasnt thinking straight. I didnt see myself living in that environment. I would you know, i wanted to go back to to america. Pelley we dont know when he will return to the u. S. But the Justice Department is preering to file charges. Our Elizabeth Palmer was told isis is running short of money because of the u. S. Bombing campaign. Liz got a rare interview with president obamas special enjoy voi to the region which said russia may be tired of propping up the syrian dictator. Reporter for the past six years, russias government and its military have shown unwavering support for syrian president bashar alassad. But that, at last, may be changing, says brett mcgurk, the president s special envoy on iraq and syria. I think theres an emerging international consensus, and i include the russians on that, that without a very serious political transition, this conflict is going to continue to grind on and thats in nobodys interest. Reporter consensus on shutting asocalled out of syrias political future would be a breakthrough and give fresh energy to the peace talks currently under way in geneva. While on the battlefield, where an International Coalition has joined forces against isis, theres already been steady progress. A new report shows that over the past 15 months, isis has lost more than a fifth of the territory it controlled in iraq and syria. And, says mcgurk, strains are showing in other ways, too. So now, cutting salaries for their fighters by almost half. When they store money in mosul, for example, we find out where that is, and we target those sites. Reporter bomb the money. They cant pay their fighters. They cant communicate with their fighters. They cant move around the battlefield like they could before, and they cant hold territory. Reporter isis is Still Holding a huge amount of land, as well as two major cities, but if the current momentum holds, its just possible isis territory will continue to shrink as the outline of a peace deal in geneva slowly takes shape. And, scott, we may get some more details on that peace agreement, or even maybe an inkling of whats in store for president assad when secretary of state john kerry goes to moscow next week.

Reporter seaworld still holds 23 orcas in captivity at its three parks in san diego, san antonio, and orlando. The highly critical 2013 documentary black fish was the beginning of the end for seaworlds killer whale shows.

The California Coastal commission ruled it could not expand its San Diego Park unless it ended orca briefing. California congressman adam schiff said seaworld does dnot suddenly see the light. I think it is mostly a decision based on the fact that people were not showing up at the parks. People did not approve of the continued captivity of these whales. They didnt approve of how they were being exhibited. Reporter now, the orcas will still be on display at seaworld parks, such as this one here in san diego, but in what the Company Calls more natural orca encounters.
