with one of the longest hollywood strikes in history, coming to a possible end with the writers guild of america. and the major studio agreeing to a tentative deal. the potential agreement announced late last night comes nearly five months since production came to a standstill. what followed was months of bitter talks, picket lines coming coming in around the clock negotiations over demands including residuals and the use of artificial intelligence. now the terms are not yet known, but in an email to members, the wga said the deal had meaningful gains and protections for writers. members of the union still need to ratify the new contract, so that writers won't be returning to work immediately. attention turns to the ongoing strike of members of the screen actors guild with many of the same issues on the line. cbs's elise preston will start us off from a studio lot in los angeles. good evening, elise. >> reporter: norah, good evening to you. after 146 days of walking the picket line, writers are expected to ratify this deal within the coming weeks. but with actors on strike, there is still no hollywood ending. picket signs are coming down, but don't expect the curtain to rise anytime soon for your favorite shows. while the writers have reached a deal, it still must be ratified by the guilds 11,000 members, and more than 160,000 actors are still without a contract. the wga calls its 3-year deal exceptional, includes concessions on royalty payments for streaming and protecting writers from being replaced by ai. two of the main sticking points of a strike that has cost the industry more than $5 billion. the first shows that forced off the air, late night talk shows will likely be the first programs to return. perhaps as early as next week. >> what we want? >> contracts. >> the writers and actors walkouts have shown solidarity and the many job actions seen in this summer of strikes. what does this mean for everyone else? >> we are in a labor moment. we had dual hollywood strikes for the first time in 63 years. we have the autoworkers out, almost ups out. workers even nonunionized workers are sick and tired and have found a straw that broke their back and turns of income inequality in this country. >> reporter: it was only last week that studio heads were brought in to try to end the strike that lasted nearly five months. are you surprised that it took this long? >> it really is a dereliction of duty. the studio heads sat on their yachts and went to billionaire summer camps, and the allowed working people to go without jobs to walk on the picket line and to wonder how they were going to put food on the table. that's outrageous. >> reporter: now with the ongoing actors strike coming your favorite shows may not return until next year, and even then, there still could be more trouble ahead, labor options for other industry jobs are looming. norah. >> norah: elise preston with this important story. thank you. we are hearing from the first time from senator roberts menendez days after he was indicted for a wide range of corruption scheme. the powerful democrat is accused of taking hundreds of thousands of dollars in cash and luxury gifts to help new jersey businessmen and the government of egypt. cbs's nikole killion spoke with his constituents as calls for his resignation are growing today. >> reporter: tonight to new jersey senator dave bob menendez is bracing for its biggest fight yet and showed no signs of bob backing down. >> i firmly believe when all of the facts are presented, not only will they be exonerated, but i will be new jersey's senior senator. >> reporter: the democratic lawmaker took no questions. >> are you running for reelection? >> reporter: as he responded publicly to a three count indictment filed last week against a senator, his wife, and three new jersey business associates. the senator is accused of using his political influence on the foreign relations can get to take thousands of dollars in bribes including mortgage payments to his wife, a luxury car, 13 bars of gold, and around $5,000 in cash with some of the money stuffed and congressionalg his name. >> for 30 years, i have withdrawn thousands of dollars in cash from a personal savings account. which i have kept for emergencies and because of the history of my family facing confiscation in cuba. >> reporter: menendez climbed over the weeken that his critics were rushing to judge a latino, something disputed by fellow democratic congresswoman alexandria ocasio-cortez prayed >> as a latino, there are absolutely ways in which there is systemic bias, but i think what is here in this indictments quite clear. >> reporter: new jersey governor phil murphy has called for menendez immediate resignation and close to half of the delegation believes he should step down. that includes congressman andy kim who announced he will primary the three term senator next year. >> i'm very concerned that if senator menendez continues on, that he could put this seat in jeopardy. >> reporter: at least two senate democrats say that menendez should leave office. the white house stopped close of calling for his resignation coming in here in new jersey, senator cory booker has not weighed in. norah. >> norah: nikole killion, thank you. some terrifying moments of board a jetblue flight from

service for inspection. now to some lingering weather problems caused by the remnants of tropical storm ophelia. the storm lashley east coast over the weekend with strong winds and up to 10 inches of rain from north carolina to the jersey shore. while the worst is behind us, states up and down the coast are in store for more stormy weather. so for all of that late spring and meteorologist alex wilson form our partners at the weather channel. good evening, alex. >> reporter: norah, it's going to be a tough week on the east coast as conditions remain unsettled, particularly at those areas along the beaches. we have the remnant circulation of ophelia, keeping rain showers stronger and high to the north. that will lead to an increased pressure gradient, strong winds and an onshore flow. you can expect increased waves, dangerous work currents, and gusty winds to continue along the east coast. up and down the east coast with rain showers through the middle and even a part of the week. wet weather will linger with those winds, expect dreary red or from the atlantic to the northeast, even the ohio valley getting in on those thunderstorms and showers during the second half of the week. and river setting up, norah, this will brng some much needed rain to specific parts of the northwest where they have been dealing with drought empires. >> norah: alex, thank you. some residents of the hardest hit part of maui are being allowed to return to the property is in lahaina, a month after the catastrophic wildfires destroyed the area and left at least 97 people dead. cbs's jonathan

his wife nelda, the flames blocked their exit on french street and nelda could not carry her husband over the seawall to safety. >> unfortunately, the fire got really close and my grandma did whatever she could. she did not give up. but my grandpa told her, go, just leave me. go find the family and take care of yourself and them. >> reporter: heartbreak and a long road to recovery ahead, officials say it could take a year alone to remove all of the rubble. 700,000 tons coming in to give you some perspective, that's about half of the amounts removed from the world trade center site after 9/11, norah. >> norah: jonathan vigliotti, thank you for all of your reporting from there. turning to the crisis at the border. cbs news can report that more than 9,000 migrants were apprehended at the border just yesterday. the mayor of el paso says that his city is reaching a breaking point with more than 2,000 migrants arriving per day. a dozen buses of migrants pulled into chicago over the weekend. america's third-largest city is now spending $29 million to set up one terrorized tent camps for the migrants. turning overseas, ukraine says it killed the commander of russia's black sea fleet in a missile strike last week. the attack targeted the russian navy's headquarters in crimea, the claim comes as president zelenskyy announced today that his forces have received much-needed u.s. abrams tanks saying they are being prepared for battle. back here at home, time is running out to avoid a government shutdown parrot house speaker kevin mccarthy is facing an uphill battle with his own fellow republicans, while president biden says the g.o.p. should live up to its budget deal. cbs's weijia jiang is at the white house. good evening, what did we learn? >> reporter: tonight though white house is calling this a republican shutdown and warrants without a solution at least 4 million federal workers won't get paid, food safety inspectiod cancer research could be stalled. this after president biden said the cuts would disproportionately impact the black community and puts food assistance to 7 million women and children at risk. he also put the brain's lament blame squarely on the group of far right republicans who are holding out on funding the government, because they want deep spending cuts. house speaker kevin mccarthy has failed numerous times to convince those lawmakers to compromise. a task that may be even tougher% now that former president donald trump's urging conservatives today to shut down the government if they don't get "everything they want." norah. >> norah: weijia jiang, thank you very much for tonight the national transportation safety board is looking into a hidden danger on america's highways. the nationwide shortage of rest stops based for large trucks results in many drivers parking on the sides of off ramps. sometimes with deadly consequences. cbs's kris van cleave goes in-depth on the dangers and the calls for change. >> reporter: mario gonzalez died on his way home from visiting family in july when his pickup slammed into the back of a semi, parked on the side of the road through a rest stop off of interstate 37, south of san antonio. it was dark and the truck did not have lights on it. his daughter lori. >> losing him has left a hole in our family. hold that nothing is going to fill. >> reporter: gonzalez was to be of the unit before hitting the brakes and a second before the impact. his family is now suing the trucking company that denies any wrongdoing. >> does not take professional experience to understand the dangers of an 18-wheeler parked on a roadway at night in the dark. >> reporter: gonzalez died two days after a hauntingly similar crash in illinois killed three when a greyhound bus set hit several big rigs stopped on an access road. the trucking industry says that truck drivers are forced to park in such places because there's only one parking space for every 11 trucks on the nation's road. cbs news found big rigs on freeway and stop shoulders across the country. and crowding roads into rest stops already full of parked trucks. investigators for the gonzalez family shot this video of the rest stop where mario died jammed with trucks on both sides of the road. laws vary by state, but texas does not prohibit parking on the shoulder. how hard is it to find a place to park for one of these things? >> it can be from easy, a small percent of the time to impossible a large percent of the time. >> reporter: denny snouts, president of freight lines in houston says the lack of parking coupled westrick drive time rules forces drivers into unsafe situations. what do you tell your drivers about this issue of parking on and off ramp? >> first of all we have to be safe, so we tell drivers to realize that cuttiting t their y short is betetter than putting someone inin an unsafe position. >> reporter: nationally in 2020 there w were 4 4,0,000 injy accidents involving
