impeachment proceedings on capitol hill. >> what spectacle is about to >> unfold and exposed to lead nearly 70% of children under the age of six one major us city had been drinking contaminated water. i'm kate bolduan, ma john berman. sarah is out today. this is cnn news central >> brand new this morning, the caucus traversal texas immigration law is not in effect. i say new because last night it was in effect yesterday morning it was not. so this head-spinning series of events is all for a law that would allow texts officials to arrest and deport people they suspect enter the us illegally. the supreme court for a moment yesterday literally for like a few hours, cleared the way for the law to take effect. but around midnight and heels court blocked it again. now the same court will hear arguments about it soon. see it as ed lavandera is in el paso, texas at a migrant shelter at the people with some of the people who would be affected by this law. presumably, if the law were to go into effect, it well, this legal whiplash has left many people here are scrambling in texas to figure out exactly >> what the future of this law known as senate bill four or sb4 what that future entails and at least yesterday we got a brief glimpse of what the reality might look like, and it's a confusing reality to make this story, but even more confusing for people. but essentially, just to get people up to speed what texas law does is that it gives local law enforcement agents the ability to arrest people suspected of entering texas illegally. and it also gives judges the ability to deport migrants to texts to mexico if they are here illegally. obviously, that critics of this law say that immigration enforcement is the sole responsibility of the federal government. texas officials were briefing flee hailing the supreme court order that allowed sb4 to go into effect for several hours yesterday, the attorney general called it a huge victory. the governor of texas, who signed the law in december, says it was a positive development, but all of this again on hold, but john and speaking with a number of law enforcement agencies yesterday, you could get the sense that they were all scrambling to figure out exactly how they would carry out this law on a day-to-day basis? and this is where the real difference comes in. it's the in theory what this law looks like on paper seemed to be very different from what it would be like on the ground were law enforcement agents, were trying to make sense of it exactly how it would be implemented day-to-day. many officers we spoke with yesterday were telling us that these law enforcement agencies either don't have the manpower or the jail space, or there's just a lot of confusion as to exactly how it could be implemented in some agencies. very concerned about a possible liability for racial profiling and that sort of things. so really just kinda lens to the chaotic nature of what this law has created, at least for the time being, so many different people across the state of texas just wait and see how this plays out in the courts. john 11, der in el paso and there was a great job of explaining the state of play here and what it all means. thank you very much okay. >> let's talk about that, say to play right now, joining us now is harris county, texas judge lean hidalgo, highest ranking elected official in the county, which includes houston, of course, judge. thanks for being here. >> so in >> a matter of just hours, you know, you haven't acute law going allowed to go into effect. and then once again, put on hold short of an actual decision. does the confusion have an impact in your county? >> absolutely. look, i'm an immigrant myself. i immigrated to the united states almost 20 years ago as a teenager, and i lead a massive county where almost 25% of population are immigrants and it's making people nervous. it makes me nervous. i think because the law is focused on whether you are suspected of being an immigrant, it is just so extreme because it allows state police to say, you look brown, you look hispanic, and therefore, you can be arrested and possibly deported. so the possibility of that and the confusion i think even legal experts are calling this judicial whiplash you've token out against the law even before this latest overnight back-and-forth, i've seen you call it a political stunt from the governor. if it takes effect what are your plans as the county's top official to work within these new enforcement rules >> i'm very proud of our local law enforcement and serious law enforcement agencies who have said, we're not going to implement this >> but of course, the issue is and what's beyond me and beyond our local law enforcement officials is you could imagine, a scenario where lina hidalgo is hispanic, looks hispanic, goes for a run somewhere. what is in this is just to put things into context, what stops local police from saying, you look like you it might be here in an undocumented basis. let me deport you. and so what we would be able to do is say law enforcement will not be implementing this, but i can tell you for immigrants and just people of hispanic descent who know that racial profiling is an issue that is too much as over concern and the other point is, this is just a terrible precedent what texas is doing on immigration would be akin to them declaring their own wars would create massive confusion across not just texas, but other states. iowa just passed something similar no reason why i what needs to be worried about undocumented migrants crossing their border. but that just tells you this is about politics. it is about making sure that the republicans can keep immigration as an issue for this presidential election. >> i will say, i mean, there are democratic governors and democratic states that are nowhere near the border with mexico who have also said that this crisis has made it to their doorstep. they would like to see the biden administration do more. that is different than saying they'd like their own states to step in and take over for where the federal government traditionally has been and is mandated to do, would you feel differently about this law if the state provided more funding for the county to help with law enforcement to handle this. i asked this because i've seen some statements from the president of the houston police officers union saying, we don't have the manpower or the time to be able to do any of this, would funding change any of this for you >> well, the unfunded mandate is also part of the problem. one of the issues on the list but it is by no means the primary one. let me acknowledge what you said. there is a crisis when it comes to emerge ration policy and yes, it is an issue in texas. it's an issue in states where migrants have been sent by the governor in order to make a point and that's why president biden partnered with republicans in congress to try to get a bill passed that was going to make the border safer. for and provide some sort of passed immigration. those is going to put over 1,000 more officers on the border. so that's really what we have to work on, is as someone who's been through the immigration for myself, we need a real solution, but this simply is providing an opening for people both to discriminate against folks that look hispanic and it's also creating confusion is putting a burden on our law enforcement. it's not keeping people from crossing the border is going people like me who simply are hispanic judge i want to ask you because mexico has also mexican government has also responded, which is isn't important element of this, because the law says that migrants are ordered to lever >> to be sent to ports of entry along the border with mexico. even if they're not mexican citizens and mexico's government said tuesday, it would not accept the return of any migrants to its territory from the state of texas >> what >> does that do? >> to the enforcement of this law? >> i think well it underlines the fact that there is a reason why the supreme court has said it is >> unconstitutional for states to take immigration policy on their own hands because you can have neighboring countries, foreign countries dealing with 50 states worth immigration policy, worth of a military policy these are national issues that affect our relationships with other nations and as a texan somebody in a county that has grown by leaps and bounds. we're very proud of our economy and so much of that is about trade and texas trade with mexico relationship with mexico and the fallout from this political stunt, again, is harming those relationships. there's no telling where this would go, but i can understand why mexico why law enforcement, why immigrants feel that they don't need to be used as political pawns and to be clear, we need immigration reform. we need a safer border, >> but this does neither. it's simply makes headlines. >> judge. lina hidalgo. thank you so much for coming on this morning. >> john, i >> present biden is waking up in >> phoenix this morning as he courts latino voters in battleground states, he's trying to draw a direct contrast with donald trump. >> here's what he said floyd who blood of the country. he separated qizan border this guy despises latinos. i understand what values and president biden will also fund raise in texas tomorrow with us now cnn's priscilla alvarez, brazil >> well, as you heard from the president, they're directly he is drawing a stark contrast from former president donald trump adds as he tries to court these latino voters who make up a sizable portion of voters in arizona and nevada. and last night, he also launched an initiative that by his campaign to mobilize and galvanize. let's unit voters because what polls? let's have shown up until this point is that there is waning support and some are leading republican and leading toward former president donald trump's, the president is aware that this is a challenge for him and his campaign. and he said so pretty bluntly, during an event just yes where he noted how latinos came out to vote for him in 2020. and he said he needs them badly in 2024 >> i need you badly need to help come online, desperately need your help because look there's only about six or seven states you're going to the outcome and election. they're toss-up states. this is one of them >> more broadly though, john, this swing has also been for the president to try to have his economic message resonate with voters. polls have shown to, that his approval ratings are low and that voters are still very skeptical well about the direction of the economy. so while he was on the road, he was talking about lowering housing costs, lowering health care costs. and today at an event, you'll also be talking about the single biggest chips grant that's a way to promote job growth as well in arizona. so the president trying to hit on all of these themes as he also heads to texas for fundraising. and we should note, of course, that the president is going to be in texas just as you were talking about with that battle playing out in the state over border policy, he will be in the middle of it later today. >> an important note, priscilla alvarez, thank you very much for that >> house republicans are holding another impeachment hearing today as they continue to investigate president biden, the witness who promises to not attend and the surprise witness that democrat democrats are hoping to call why one of the victims of the so-called goon squad now says that he forgives the officers who pleaded guilty to torturing him, and more officers are set to be sentenced to day we're >> also moments >> away from the opening bell on wall street. will the s&p 500 hit yet another record?

cnn's melanie zanona is on the hill following this forest. what are, what is going to happen? what is this about >> well, initially republicans had build this hearing is a way to highlight discrepancies hunter biden's closed-door testimony. you remember this is only the second public hearing that the house oversight committee has had related to its impeachment inquiry and hunter biden has been a central okay. is of their pro but since hunter decided not to show up, republicans are now instead turning their focus to a pair of hunter biden business associates who have claimed president joe biden was deeply involved in his son's overseas business deals, but those claims have yet to be verified. and in fact, many of them have been directly and are cut by other witnesses. so kate, there are signs that this hearing is shaping up to be far more spectacle than substance for starters, as you mentioned, there is going to be an empty seat with hunter biden's name on it. and we should also point out that one of the republican witnesses is going to be appearing remotely from federal prison. meanwhile, democrats have decided to select lev parnas as their witness. he is a former rudy giuliani associate who was tasked with digging up on the bidens, but has since called those claims nonsense. so not an ideal situation we shouldn't for house oversight chair james comer, who is under growing pressure to answer questions about where his impeachment inquiry goes from here. >> well, that's the question is if they haven't turned if they have not turned up the evidence, they haven't really shown their work to show any evidence that this inquiry has really borne fruit, if you will. where is this headed next >> yeah well there's actually a serious debate inside the gop right now about how and when to wrap up their probe. james comer has said that there are gonna be criminal referrals and a final at some point, but we are told that the revolts are just not there for republicans to actually advance impeachment articles for president biden. so some ripples ligands want to just wrap this up quickly and turn their attention. we're trying to deliver other wins for the american people ahead of november, while some republicans say they should just drag this investigation out until november her and try to do as much as possible to politically damage the president ahead of november, kate >> it's good to see you, melanie. thank you so much. john. >> all right. this morning, we're waiting for word from jack smith. how will he respond to donald trump's immunity argument and a new filing to the supreme court. trump's legal team claims, quote a denial of criminal immunity would incapacitate every future president with the facto blackmail and extortion while in office and condemn him two years of post office trauma at the hands of political opponents. with this, now california congressman adam schiff, he is currently a member of the house judiciary committee and is running for senate in california. congressman, how would the prosecution of donald trump incapacitate every future president? >> well, it wouldn't in fact, it would reinforce the principle that no one is above the law. it would tell future presidents, if you engage in criminality, let alone try to subvert the peaceful transfer of power. you will be held accountable and frankly, if the result were any different, that would be the end of the republic. but i think what trump is really arguing here is less on the merits because i think the trump lawyers understand how weak their argument is, and more they're arguing, hey, supreme court nod, nod, wink week what we really want is a delay. send this back to the lower court, make them go through factual findings. we will appeal whatever their decision is right back to you. help us push this off after the election. and if we're successful, we'll make the whole thing go away and you already even take responsibility for it. that's i think really what the trump team is looking for. we saw the supreme court act with great speed when it came to dismissing these efforts by states to disqualify trump they can move quickly when they want to. they can also delay what they want when they want to and i think that's what trump is really after here. >> do you think they'll bite on his arguments >> it will be very revealing of the court. that is is this now just a partisan institution that is essentially in the thrall of donald trump, like so many of the other republican appointees because the on the merits, this is not a difficult decision for the court. they should not have even accepted cert on this case. it would be absurd to say that the only check the only really meaningful check-in presidential power that is the ability of voters to vote you out it's essentially nullified by this immunity argument. that is, voters can vote you out and a president can ignore it and stay in power and you can't hold them accountable. so the merits or week but they've already essentially given the trump some delay by pushing the hearing until april and it wouldn't be difficult for them to push this beyond the election on the subject of consequences, you were a member of the january 6 committee. >> peter navarro, >> who defied a subpoena from that committee and was subsequently prosecuted and convicted of contempt of congress, reported to prison just yesterday. i wonder if you have any reaction to that >> i think this is an important affirmation of the idea that, hey, congressional subpoenas are not optional they can be enforced, they should be enforced the justice department we referred several to the department. they didn't take up every referral we made but here they did. they prosecuted the clase. i think it's good for our democracy. it's good for congressional oversight. if people begin to feel they can simply ignore congress and a subpoena then i think it'd means that essentially the balance of power between our branches of government is fundamentally altered congress's no longer empowered to truly get answers to questions and do its oversight. so peter navarro, going to prison is a strong message to others who would ignore commercial process you do it at your own peril >> carson years jewish-american donald trump weighed in on jews who vote for democrats. he said, they hate their religion and should be ashamed of themselves. donald trump, who is not jewish, telling jewish people how to be jewish, what's your reaction to that? >> well, only to someone who has no appreciation for really any religion, any religious group, or any religious belief could make a statement like that he's the last person in the world. i would certainly turn to for instruction about what it means to be jewish but it's a bigoted statement. it's a stupid statement. it is. all at the same time. so par for the course for donald trump. but he probably doesn't realize and doesn't care how deeply offensive it is to jewish people. this is just who he is and quite antithetical to my own jewish faith which is centered around doing things to try to mend and bring the world together. he is all about division and hate, and that is certainly nothing to do with the jewish religion so you just emerged from the california primary senate primary you one that primary at the jungle primary. so it means something a little bit different going forward, one of your competitors was democratic congressman katie porter, congresswoman katie porter, who after she did not advance in the election, put out a tweet where she had said that the election chen was rigged. well, just this week, she's gone on a podcast and basically apologize for that state, but i want to listen to that. let's listen so >> obviously i wish i had chosen a different word because what happened with the controversy was it took away from to really important truths. one our california election officials do a terrific job. the second truth that is really important that got lost in all of that is that big money does influence our elections outcomes are manipulated and distorted when you have people coming in spending millions and millions of dollars at the last minute how do you feel about the little bit of an effort to clean that up >> i look, i'm glad that she has expressed her regret that is not a word that we should be using a connection with elections and has now a very charged meaning in the era of trump. it suggests fraud and ballot-stuffing and election irregularities. so it's not a word that is to be used in the context that she did she called and congratulated me. it was a very gracious of he left for me but look, we need to focus forward. >> on the >> challenges facing the country, the campaign that i ran was very much focused on getting things done to address the real problems like housing prices, like food prices really trying to meet the voters where they are. and this is where we need to keep the focus >> congressman adam schiff, we appreciate your time this morning. thank you very much. >> why one victim of the so-called goon squad says that he had to forgive the officers who pleaded guilty to torturing him as sentencing for more of those officers continues today. in mississippi and a bill in alabama targeting diversity, equity and inclusion programs at public schools. and universities is stirring up controversy and now headed to the governor's desk >> this is the big data >> time to that do merely to turn off the alarm >> amelia, whether >> reason send emilia unlocked the door. >> i'm afraid i can't do that. >> why not?

who don't have anything to do with the semiconductor industry, but are still struggling with high rents and high grocery prices what does it mean for them? >> well if they're one of the 20,000 construction workers are going to help build these fabrication plants it's going to mean more work for them and if they're one of the workers who ends up manufacturing chips standing up this domestic industry in one of the largest public private partnerships, one of the largest investment since in semiconductors, in our history. that's gonna be good news for them because these jobs will pay somewhere around $100,000 real money for, in many cases this workers, even without a college degree, we've given up so much of this really high-quality production to overseas firms we're bringing it back home. that's key to the presidency economic agenda and to what he's talking about today. arizona, ohio, oregon, new mexico a great day for a for i think people in those states we're going to hear more about that from the president today >> i'm >> the broader aspects of the economy and where things are right now, adam schiff was just on with john and he said they were talking about many things, but he said one of his focus is is to meet voters where they are when he said they're focused on housing prices and food prices and i had the treasury secretary on the show right after the state of the union address. and i asked her why polling isn't showing that people get i'm joe biden, credit for good things happening in the economy and yellen said essentially we need to explain what the president is doing to improve people's lives. i've heard that repeatedly from democrats and the administration as to why voters say they don't feel good about the biden economy. >> do you >> think at this point jared, the we just need to promote his accomplishments more strategy may be falling flat i don't know about that. >> that all sounds like a very strategic communications kind of question and it's a valid one. what i can tell you is that what you just prescribed there is exactly what we're doing. in fact, what we're doing as you and i speak, i understand these poll results. i scrutinize them just as closely as anyone. but let me suggest something because you've got a great station over there and i suspect you can run paul's like this ask people what they think about what's going on today. what they think about the largest public private investments in semiconductors bringing back domestic production of this key industry, economic security, national security, taking what sherrod brown calls barrel fraying diagnosable phrase rust belt, and a change eight into silicon heartland. okay. i would like i would recommend that folks go out there and poll people who are in the area of these investments and see what they think about them. because when we get down, we drilled down into these granular questions about what do you think about the components of bidenomics? lower broadband costs, lower cost of prescription drugs standing up domestic production, not just in semiconductors, but an electric vehicles, electric batteries. these things paul at 85% range. so let's ask folks about directly what we're doing before we conclude, they're unhappy with the agenda >> let's talk about gas prices they're on the rise. once again, aaa says a national averages. i think they said 352 is what i'm seeing today. that's up from 328 per gallon. that's that we know where that historical now national average high hit over $5 in june 20, 2022. so we're not near that. but this trend, this increasing trend, are you concerned where this is headed? >> while i watched the gap, one of the first clicks i do when i get up in the morning, which probably isn't a sign of a healthy person, is but it's precisely on this gas price. so i track this a very closely and i think perhaps more importantly, it cea, we're always looking at the underlying factors to get to your question. so 11 part of this is seasonality in this time of the year, there's a switch from the winter to the summer blend that put some upward pressure on price. we had a big refinery come offline and indiana, it's going back online, so that should provide some relief. and of course, the conflict in the middle east has raised the price of a barrel of oil by a bit worth of $10 a barrel. and so all of those factors are coming into play here. and yes, we track them very closely and continue to do. >> i don't think it's a statement of health that you click on >> gas prices. it's part of your job. i think maybe it's a little comfort printing. it depends on what you do with am just don't he was are talking about wake-up times with me since we started this show though geron >> thank you so much >> thanks for coming out know it's going to happen here >> thank you. bye-bye. >> coming up still for us. the new data from the fbi's shows a major change and an encouraging trend and violent on crime rates across the country will bring that to you. and a new study finds thousands of children may have been exposed to lead contaminated water in one major american city, we have the details >> erin burnett out front tonight at seven on cnn this. >> is my father bob. >> this is my daughter lisa. >> and we'd love balance of nature >> don't you?

is it just old pipes and how could it be happening and not having known about i mean, the one thing you know, when you move to a community is to check the lead levels in the water? yeah. so chicago is particularly bad for lead pipes. the federal government banned lead pipes in 1986. but before that, they were widely used. chicago is estimated to have 400 lead service lines going to houses and homes. that is the most of any american city. and so the biden administration has an initiative to try to play lead service lines. this is taking a long time, particularly in cities with that many. and so there's advice to get your lead levels tested in your water. the city can provide kits for free, also, if you're worried about it, you can run the water for a longer period of time if you haven't used in awhile, cook with cold water, not hot water. hot water can actually absorb the lead murray easily >> this is something that's part of the infrastructure law. if i remember correctly, like you going and correcting this is something that over time in theory, the federal government does know about and is putting some money behind in correcting. >> they are in cities are working on it, but it's taking a long time for it, michal, thank you so much important to shed a light on that. yeah, super important. but as you're talking about with even with the infrastructure bill, i mean putting in the new line fines mean that takes a long time and it's like yesterday, this needed to be fixed for very long time. so i'll make thank you so much for bringing that to us and thank you all so much for joining us today. this is cnn news central, cnn newsroom with jim acosta is up next >> beer headliner las vegas. that's what i wanna do >> vegas. the story of sin city sunday at ten on cnn demand for energy is growing and so is the need for american oil and natural gas. it's time to turn the lights on. >> america is resources are abundant. our nation is a global leader in reducing emissions and innovators and delivering more energy sources to secure our future. nine in ten americans agree, american oil and natural gas are vital to our account >> lights there comes a time when you realize the kitchen you use still left is ready for a refreshed bladder cabinets to go design >> expert help you craft the look you want with quality products in today's designer styles and colors that by your transferable lifetime warranty out with the old in with the new, it's that easy from design to install. we do it all plus get 0% apr for a limited time visit cabinets to go.com, to schedule your free design consultation today cabinets to go, wow, for less when i think about purpose. i don't know if st. jude donors realize the magnitude of what they're doing their donations are funding the research, the research is allowing for the treatments to happen. and those treatments provide cures. and the cures are allowing patients to get to grow up and live amazing lives all around the world >> with the fund drives innovation fund. you can invest in some of the world's top tech companies, including those leading the ai revolution, before they go public the future is now open for investment >> wealth changing question has your advisor create a portfolio based only on your age and risk tolerance that's simply not good enough. your money deserves better and soda you. a creative are private wealth managers learn about you first?
