Future. And the Nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office has told us that the houses proposal will not generate sustainability of Pension Plans or the sustainability of the pbgc. So we better not spend time on something the Congressional Budget Office just isnt going to bring a solution and definitely not a longterm solution. In contrast, the proposal that senator alexander and i are releasing today addresses the immediate needs of the few multiemployer plans facing immediate crisis in a manner that protects participant benefits and also ensures a sustainable multiemployer Pension System for the long haul. And it does this all in a fiscally responsible way. Our proposal is not a giveaway to corporations or to unions, and its a better deal for the taxpayers at the same time than a future that even with a larger problem and a pbgc funding needs that will almost surely be met with a taxpayer bailout. All participants in the system would make a sacrifice. Let me make that clear. All partici
Areas. Norah. Carter evans, thank you for all your reporting this weekend. Well, for a look at when the winter storm warnings will finally break, lets bring in meteorologist chris warren from our partners at the weather channel. Good evening, chris. Good evening, norah. More snow on the way for the west coast. In some of the Higher Elevations in california and oregon could see another two feet of snow. Meanwhile, in texas, firefighting efforts do remain under way from the ground and from the air. A lot of smoke coming from these massive wildfires that are burning. Mother nature providing some relief for those efforts. Winds are not as strong as they had been over the weekend and especially last week, expecting to stay relatively calm over the next couple of days while that Severe Weather threat is increasing in areas that had temperatures in the 60s and 70s today. But by tomorrow, norah, temperatures will be in the 30s and even 20s. Chris, thank you. In another Major Development today,
Good morning. Im jane pauley and this is sunday morning. Its hard to believe its been four years since the first case of covid was confirmed here in the United States, back in january 2020. We all remember the uncertainty, panic, lockdowns, and the more than 1 million lives lost in this nation alone. But what also worth remembering is the scientific miracle that quickly followed. A vaccine developed and released later that very year, saving countless lives. This morning our Kelefa Sanneh introduces us to two scientists truly Unsung Heroes who made the Covid Vaccine possible. So. Reporter he is immunologist. She is a biochemist. In 1998, they met by chance. 22 years later, their research led to the Covid Vaccine of 2020. And the nobel prize in medicine last year. Did you take a moment to celebrate . I just probably went back to work. Famously, i ate the whole bag of chocolate covered peanuts. On a day like that you, earned it. Reporter coming up on sunday morning, how it all happened. H
this. but then chief justice roberts wrote this in his decision writing for the majority today. he said it would be odd to think that separation of powers concerns evaporate simply because the governor is providing a monetary benefit rather than imposing obligations. we ll dig into this decision here this afternoon. the president says for his part and we are about to hear from him live, that the fight is not over. i will stop at nothing to find other ways to deliver relief to hard-working middle class families. the supreme court also ruling today that a christian website e and her attorney. very interesting words from justice gorsuch on this. saying you can t compel someone to act. you can t coerce them to act against their religious beliefs. so we re going to talk about that in a moment. first, let s bring in betsy devos. a couple of huge decisions that are related to education have come down from the highest court in the land. betsy, great to have you with us. thanks for
