You can start to see some red and some yellow whether youre headed east or westbound on 38, too, most of that traffic is being diverted off to the area. Give yourself extra time in new jersey.

And authorities there say that this is very suspicious. And we have nbc 10s monique baxton disbatpatched to the situation. Well get back to her and that information in a few minutes. It is 6 33. House republicans expected to meet to try to figure out who is in charge. But the republicans elections have been postponed now until they can sort it out. Just hours after congressman Kevin Mccarthy confirmed he was running to take over House SpeakerJohn Boehners job, he suddenly dropped out. I think i shocked some of you, huh . Were serving. We should put this conference first. And i think theres something to be said for us to unite. We probably need a fresh face. We are just weeks away from the country reaching its debt limit. And another deadline for a government shutdown, budget chair paul ryan is said to be outgoing speaker John Boehners favorite. Aides say ryan is not interested. Hes told reporters hes not running. But theyre urging him to reconsider. Today Pennsylvania State budget is 101 days overdue and still, lawmakers on both sides have not budged on balancing on a balancing act. Each have different ideas in how to pay for everything. The governors proposal includes personal income tax and enacting a severance tax affecting the natural gas industry. Republicans suggest looking at liquor privatization, pension reform and online gaming. If we balance the budget this year, were looking at a 2 billion deficit next year. Online gaming is not going to be the panacea to that. I think, if we start raising peoples taxes, you need to do some reforms. And i really believe that pension reform is necessary. In the meantime, School Districts across pennsylvania, including philadelphia have been borrowing millions to cover costs to keep the doors open. Yesterday, students protested calling for an end to the stalemate. No ifs, no buts, no education cuts. Thats what theyre chanting. That was the chant they were using throughout the streets of philadelphia as students walked out of class hoping pennsylvania lawmakers heard their cries. Theyre angry over the budget battle and say lawmakers should not allow education to take a backseat to a bipartisan bickering. Theyre playing their politics game and were the pawns in that game. And i think it needs to come to a stop. Students are now demanding a solution to the fight they say is destroying their education. And theyre calling the people that we call the emergency situations, were talking about firefighters and other first responders. In Delaware County, its those brave men and women who are now in need of rescue. Led to officials to put out the call for help. Katie zachary joins us live with a look at the countys first ever recruitment drive. Tell us how this will work. Hi, we are here in Delaware County. Earlier, i spoke to the chief of the Newtown Square fire company who says there is, quote, urgent need for volunteers. Hes talking about here at his fire company and throughout Delaware County. In fact, he says, here in Newtown Square, they have such a great need for daytime help that they have hired volunteers from other towns. And they actually pay them parttime to work during the day here. Now, in the past, departments like this one in Montgomery County have taken a different approach to recruiting. They have posted their need on signs and billboards in the past. But today and tomorrow, back here in Delaware County, theyre doing things differently. Fire houses are opening their doors so people who are interested in volunteering or learning more about it can meet firefighters firsthand. They can ask questions, see the trucks and all of the equipment. Now, the goal for the Newtown SquareFire Department throughout this recruiting effort today and tomorrow is to attract about a dozen or so new volunteers. More, of course, is better. Now, here and throughout the county, they are going to be recruiting more volunteer firefighters as well as ems personnel. Reporting live in Newtown Square, katy zachary, nbc 10 news.
