Hillary clinton and Bernie Sanders are back on the campaign trail, after last nights democratic debate. How the pair over Foreign Policy and race relations. Get ready for a really cold weekend. Part of that preparation is looking after your pipes to make sure they dont freeze. The advice we got from a plumber in our area. Plus, clevelands no longer charging tamir rices family for the use of an ambulance, after an officer shot and killed the 12 year old. How much the going to have to pay. Garrett turner. And im kimberly mcbroom. After a resounding defeat in the New Hampshire primary, Hillary Clinton is hoping to get her campaign back on track later this month in nevada and south carolina. Last night, clinton and Bernie Sanders sparred over Foreign Policy and race relations. Marlie hall has the latest from milwaukee, wisconsin. Hillary clinton sought to regain momentum in milwaukee last night. Calling the vermont senator out unrealistic plans for the country sot clinton i am conscious of the fact that we have to also be very clear especially with young people about what kind of government is going to do what for them and what it will cost. sot sanders secretary clinton youre not in the white house yet and let me be clear that every proposal that i have introduced has been paid for. Both candidates then turned their attention to immigration and criminal Justice Reform sot sanders i believe we will all agree that we are sick of seeing videos of people shot by police officers. sot clinton when we talk about criminal Justice Reform and ending the era of mass incarceration, we also have to talk about Jobs Education housing and other ways of helping communities do better. With the candidates neck and neck in the polls minority groups are expected to play a key role in the next nominating contests sot marc morial National Urban league, president there is no doubt that secretary clinton starts with a longstanding record and an advantage; milwaukee, wisconsin one of the more heated exchanges came when clinton challenged sanders for being overly critical of president obama sot clinton the kind of criticism that weve heard from senator sanders about our president i expect from republicans. sot sanders madam secretary, that is a low blow. sot lynda tran cbs news political contributor she made use of the opportunity that Bernie Sanders offered her today by criticizing what he called this gap in leadership from the president as it pertains to congress.

Webb also says and republican parties are in a state of crisis, and that more than 40 percent of americans dont identify with either one of them. Its a foregone conclusion that this weekend will see single digit temps with the wind chill in some areas being below zero. This could mean Serious Problems when it comes to your water pipes. The local plumbers we talked to say its not even the cold temperatures thats a problem, its the wind or draft that may get under your house and directly impact a pipe. For any of you with an air space under your house, experts say to make sure the foundation is solid. Check around your vents for any potential air spaces. If you find any holes, you can use foam to plug it up. Insulating is the best thing. If you have any open areas in your basement or you know theres a drafty spot you want to seal that up with some expansion foam or pipe insulation. Remember that at no circumstance should you put a space heater or heat house to keep your pipes from freezing. Theres a lot of flammable material under your house that can catch fire anytime. And leo, the cold weather is just the first thing we have to be worried about. Theres also some snow on the way right .
