Seven years ago today, president obama signed what was supposed to be his legacy issue, healthcare reform. But will it be on its way out today . We have not cut the deal yet. Reporter they have not cut the deal yet and that may be an understatement. Despite some intense lobbying even from the president , there doesnt appear to be enough republican support yet for the repeal and replacement of obamacare to come to a planned vote in the house later today. The president and i came to an agreement in principle. Reporter the leader of the House Freedom caucus a group of conservative republicans sounded optimistic about some last minute concessions including allowing paired back Health Insurance plans. But that may scare off some moderate republicans and there are some on the right who simply dont appear to persuadable. Kentuckys Thomas Massey said he was changing his vote from no to hell no. This is not going to pass. Reporter democrats seemed to revel in the drama. But dont rule out a last minute deal orchestrated by the president who knows that more than healthcare may be at stake. What hes saying to republican members moderates and conservatives is hey get on board on this and we can do so much other bigger things, tax reform, tax cuts, infrastructure, immigration. Lets get past this. Lets get it behind us because if we dont it is going to it is going to sink us. Reporter well see what happens.

Yup. Everything should be blooming next week. Lets check in with erin como get a look at the commute this morning. Good morning. Good morning. It is 7 16. A crash that was blocking center lanes right at the express lanes before road cleared to the shoulder. Look at that youre parked from the springfield interchange through that accident scene before braddock road. Give yourself 30 extra minutes for that inner loop commute this morning. Congested area this time of morning. Other issues that were dealing with right now including a person hit by a car New Hampshire avenue at oak view drive out in Silver Spring. In addition to that you can see really heavy traffic 95 southbound from well north of the icc to the beltway. Inner loop heavy because of an earlier crash by New Hampshire avenue. Outer loop completely jams 95 over to Georgia Avenue as well. So, both the inner loop and outer loop through college park this morning significant delays. Bw parkway north and southbound heavy past powder mill road. A new crash reported in bethesda. 270 southbound excuse me, 270 southbound blocking the shoulder by the spur. Thats causing big delays coming down from gaithersburg. 295 on the southbound side earlier disabled vehicle has been cleared at benning road. Police still have heavy traffic fro 11th Street Bridge. In Southern Maryland we have very heavy volume on 210 northbound as you try to get to the beltway. And then 301 at the five split in brandywine. 301 north of four in Upper Marlboro dealing with a person hit by a car there. Well get those details to you in your next report. Back to you. It is a story that fox5 has been all over. Missing kids in the district. Where are they and why does there seem to be an increase in the number of cases. Those are just some of the stories thatting questions that residents want answers to and at a town hall meeting last night in southeast they got some answers. S bob barnard is live with the latest now. Still so many questions, bob. Good morning. Reporter hey, allison and steve, yes, a lot of questions. Some answers but ill tell you what, a lot of passion still out there right now. This is a situation, the meeting last night at a Charter School in southeast where people in the community, families and parents meeting with city leaders expressed thei like theres a growing number of girls going missing here in the district of columbia. Some of them are run aways but then they get preyed upon when theyre out there. Basically d. C. Police and city leaders told these families yes, it seems like that, the numbers are up but actually theyre not out of the norm compared to most convenient years. The thing is a new commander of the youth and Families Division of the mpd is using social media for each and every case of a missing child in the district. Their web site basically had just relisha rudd who had been missing a few years as their only case. Now, there are currently like 10 cases, four new ones yesterday but thats because they are going out there and on social media letting people know each time a girl goes missing to hopefully get them home. Here now reaction from the police chief talking to the people there last night and a Community Leader who says the social media is a good thing but can also lead to trouble it is a blessing and it is a curse. Were utilizing these tools to find the missing and theyre utilizing these tools to recruit. One child missing is one too many. So, its not so much about the numbers. Its about the ones that are missing what we can do to get them safe. Just because you see a text from your loved one or you see a facebook posting from your loved one, it doesnt necessarily mean theyre okay so we got to keep looking for them until we get them back home. Reporter what chief newsham is talking about is that yeah, there is Human Trafficking out there. These girls who voluntarily leave home for whatever reason could end up in the hands of people with criminal intentions and so what mayor bowser told these families is that they want to do a better job, city leaders and city agencies want to do a better job of reaching out to families, helping to provide counseling to kind of like take care of some of the conditions in home that lead these young girls to leave into trouble on the streets, guys. Bob, thank you very much. Coming up at 8 30 we go right to the woman whose efforts put a spotlight on this issue. D. C. Police commander chanel dickerson, shell join us in the studio.

No lawmakers in the house expected vote on the trump Administrations Health Care overhaul bill. The big question today is, will the bill have enough votes to pass . At least 26 republicans say they still oppose the gop bill. Republican leaders are scrambling to consider change toss that bill that would get the support of the Freedom Caucus thats the block of hard line conservatives who say it doesnt go far now row pole plead obama. President trump has asked members of the caw cause to meet with him today at the white house. You know there will be a lost discussion there as in lets get this done. Lets get it done. From the president s perspective. Members of the Congressional Black Caucus met with President Trump at the white house. Covered issues ranging from immigration to crime and budget joining us now with a insiders look at the meeting maryland couldnt morning Anthony Brown who was there yesterday. Thank you. Good morning. Candid discussions, how candid were these discussions with the president . It was a candid discussion. I mean we went in to the meeting first of all we were invited by the white house. Our goal was to help the president answer the question that he asked africanamericans what do you have to lose . And we pointed out after looking at the skinny budget that the Trump Administration released recently that theres a lot to lose. Um, you know, cuts to meals on wheels, cuts to pell grants, cuts to the historically black colleges and universities. We pointed that out but we also were very candid and thought it was important that we that we are about some of the offensive language that hes used directed towards former president barack obama, the way that he mischaracterizes the africanamerican community. The impact of the travel ban. So we put that on the table we didnt spend a lot of time on that. But we did need to put it out there and then we pivoted to issues. How do you get these points across . Now this is a president who, um, you know, has kind of handled things his way so far into this term. How do you get those points across in a convincing way and still be diplomatic about it since youre there in the white house . And diplomacy is big peace it in terms of if you truly want to develop a relationship with the africanamerican community, President Trump issued a new deal for black america a few months ago. This was his set of proposals. Well if you want really make to progress on those proposals then you have to have credibility in the community. You have to have confidence or the community has to have confidence in your ability and your willingness to really make change. So that type of language and conduct doesnt promote partnership. So we sort of presented it in terms of what we thought would be in the best interest of the white house that they really want to make progress in and with the africanamerican community. The delegation the leadership not the entire cbc the leadership went and sat down with the president. This is a president who got some like 8 of the africanamerican vote. My question to you is, did you leave that meeti that he, a, listened and understood issues facing the black community and that anything will be done to differently . Well, it certainly listened, and that was that was encouraging to see. Now, in terms of his understanding, wed like to believe that he has a better understanding of the needs andly challenges of the africanamerican community. But, you know, well see in time. So we saw skinny budget a few weeks ago. A lot of harmful cuts. Hell submit his formal budget this spring, and well see whether or not the cuts have been restored. Whether our requests to increase funding to historically black college and universities actually happens. But the one thing ill say so we specifically asked to be able to meet with his cabinet secretaries went mentioned the education secretary and the housing secretary and the attorney general, and he readily said yes. He says lie make them available. So well take him up on that offer to do that. Let me just ask a followup here because we famously optic of the historically black college and University President s Leadership Meeting you made a point of it. There will will be no photo op op here. Im saying to say i hear you saying cuts to education, meantime theres this shot with everyone smiling in the room. So do you worry about what might be said versus what might actually happen . Lets be clear, the shot of smiles was not us. Exactly. Ours was a business meeting. We were in the cabinet room. Picture was taken then . The white house photographer took a picture. I dont know if they released a photo. Okay. The media spray was focused on because they were behind us were focused on the president. But, you know, we were very insist ant that this is a business meeting. We were in the cabinet room. We did go oval office to continue the meeting and because, you know, we we wanted to offer solutions on issues dealing with criminal justice. How he unrolls infrastruct package in a way that empowers the africanamerican community, creates jobs locally. Provides opportunities for women and minority owned businesses so we were very focused on solutions and but we didnt walk out of the meeting believing that, um, that necessarily we were going see results. We know that we have work to do. Were going to engage the cabinet secretaries. In addition to that engage the president in the future as well . Absolutely. I mean, he offered, um, in the meeting to meet with us regularly, and so well take him up on that. But we think a lot of the detail work will be done with his cabinet officials and the departments. You hit on when the president was on the campaign trail. What do you have to lose was the message to africanamericans, and as a black woman, let me just say that the message that i heard from him was, does he know theres a thriving middle class thats always trying to keep moving up . Does he know within washing history, rich black history, and so when you left him, you left him with a book that says we have a lot to lose here. So what was the sense, i guess im trying to get into your head in that meeting. We left him with book, and we not only the book but the comments the information we left were not a non noily thick group we dont all live in poverty in inner cities like he character rises. That was the message on the trail. Were professionals, wee business owners, were farmers, were poor, were well to do and a few us are wealthy and that doesnt include me. Nor i. But were a diverse socio economically, and we presented that to him. And but also we presented that, you know, africanamericans resilient we face add lot of hardship in the four centuries that weve been on this continent, and we continue a struggle for, you know, to bridge the opportunity and the inequities in our criminal justice system, disparity usie in health care. So weve got work to do. Were in many struggle but this is who we are, and there are a lot of Success Stories within the africanamerican community. Congressman hopefully its a first of many meetings at the white house with the president and members of the cabinet as well. Well Talk Health Care next time and see what happens today and then we can respond to that. Thank you. Thanks for joining us this morning. Lets talk in with Tucker Barnes at 7 37.

Back to you guys. Erin thanks very. Lets get to the latest on the deadly terror attack in london. Less than 24 hours its back to business for lawmakers. Joining us from the pentagon Jennifer Griffin National Correspondent at Fox News Channel g to see jennifer. First question we heard arrests overnight. Whats the latest on the investigation . Reporter steve we just lear those killed in the attack. The uk metro poll pan Police Say Six addresses have been searched around britain. Eight people arrested they say the assailant appears to have been acted a lone inspired by terrorist proper grant today. Police arent releasing his identity. The Prime Minister said he was investigated previously by mi5 but seen as a peripheral figure. Yesterday as tack was the worst terror attack in the uk in over a decade. Its the fifth major terror attack in europe in the last year and a half. Isis claim the last four. There was the truck attack in france on bastille day and another in berlin in december targeting a christmas market. In the uk of course there was that stabbing a tack at ohio state in november where the attacker also used a car and one at a mall in minneapolis in september, steve. Were hearing that the raids overnight the arrests overnight people who may have been associated with this came from birmingham, not london itself. Whats the connection between that is it more wides throughout the country and why yesterday . Why yesterday, yesterday was the anniversary of the Brussels Airport attack. Sometimes terror groups like these adversaries. Senior u. S. Officials have told us they expected an up tick of terror attacks in europe as the u. S. Led military coalition ramp up the fight to take isis capital in syria. London parliament a taco win sided with a high profile anti Isis Coalition meeting at the state department yesterday. 68 Foreign Ministers and Top Coalition efforts hosted bisect of state Rex Tillerson joined by the iraqi Prime Minister to discuss the way ahead in the fight against isis. Us military briefing at the pentagon described how the anti isis fight is ramping up to get Coalition Forces closer to racca. For the first time time yesterday, steve, the u. S. Army inserted Syrian Defense forces using Chinook Helicopters those syrian curdish fighters and they got win 28 miles of racca not unusual again to see a spike in these kind of attacks to coincide with high profile diplomatic talks. One of things i know that investigators just frustrates them so much are these showcall lone wolf attacks. Do we know at this point, weve heard from the british investigators that this was someone who may have acted on their own, when you hear of these arrests and these raids targeting numerous people, was this someone who you feel was or who we know had any intel that was directed to this or someone who acted on their own and if directed by whom . Well, they are trying to investigate all of that right now. Right now, british authorities are saying that they think that he acted alone, but, again, may have been inspired by terrorist propaganda but he did seem to be a part of a group and stream mist group that was being investigated already but he was seen as a peripheral figure. British and us authorities are holding that information very close and not sharing it at this time the identity the attacker. Last fall isis spokesman called knives by terror attackers. Guidance was published in november in the isis magazine row mia. Spokesman told reporters no to the travel to syria carry out tax in their home countries and thats really what were seeing more and more of in these recent attacks. Last thing well leave it with this. Any up tick in any protections here in the United States as far as response to what happened in london yesterday . Weve spoken to dhs and no real up tick at this moment in time. Theres some additional protection of the london consulate in London Properties in new york city. But nothing else for americans and they dont believe that this is part of a larger widespread attack targeting other capitals. Thats the latest from the london tack yesterday. Thanks jennifer.

In iihs frontend crash prevention testing, nobody beats the subaru impreza. Not toyota. Not honda. Not ford. The allnew subaru impreza. More than a car, its a subaru. Welcome back. 8 30 on thursday morning chilly temperatures out in. Tucker reassures everybody that it will warm up by the weekend. Welcome back to fox5 news morning. Unfortunately, this morning we continue to talk about the missing children and teenagers in the district. Not a day goes by we dont get questions why were not covering this more and what our doing. Dc police are asking for the publics help to find today 17yearold Catherine Hunter and 17yearold shani burris. Catherine was last seen on tuesday, march 21 in the 100 block of mississippi avenue in southeast and shani was also last seen on tuesday in the 2600 block of san ton road in southeast. Now those cases and dozens more like it are the reasons why hundreds of people packed a school in southEast Washington last night. The town hall meeting was called after more than 500 youth have been reported missing in d. C. Since the beginning of the year. City Officials Say theres not an actual up tick though in cases. Theyre just pub lib sizing them more. And while many of these children are found and reunited with families, Community Members are frustrated. Joining us now commander sheinelle dickerson the head of the youth and Family Services division of the metropolitan Police Department. We thank you so much for coming in today. Me. So the public is understandably frustrated with the number of teens that appear to just have vanished in washington. What is the story here . Is this critical issue right now in d. C. . Well, eighths critical issue, however, the teens have not just vanished. Sadly, a large number of our missing teens voluntarily leave home and theyre found or located theyre located or returned within a short time. Youve made eight mission since youve taken over this position to publicize these kids missing to show their faces, give a description. Why . Because i want to ensure that every case received the same level of service and attention. What do you mean by that . Well, i was astound when i look at the number of missing africanamerican females. Im not trying to minimize that other people are missing, but they looked like me and so i just wanted to make sure that every investigation focused on we get the same exposure to everyone regardless of your race or where you live. What percentage of these young and most of the cases young teenaged girls right. Black girls missing in the city. Yes. Okay. What percentage come home would you say . I dont have that number but a large percentage come home. Okay. For example, yesterday i started out at 4 00 p. M. We had 18 juveniles that were missing. By the time i left the town hall meeting last night, six had been located and we had, um, only 12. But then this morning that number has grown again. Okay. So what is happening here . What do you think is behind these missing teenagers . Well ing. The ones who dont come home . As ive stated before that its a deeper issue. Okay. We need to get to the bottom of why these young people feel that theres no other alternative but to leave home. When they leave home, theres a danger that they co issues, and then my biggest concern is theyre not going to school. So without an education, they cannot become productive adults and reach their full potential. We saw a heartbreaking story yesterday one of these teenagers was in the foster care system. She says shes sick and tired of being neglected and mistreated so she is not missing. She just chooses to be on her own. Thats a heartbreaking reality. It is, but she is still missing to the metropolitan Police Department and were doing everything we can to locate her. So im asking her if that post is real because we know sometimes that the post is on social media may not be real, but if that is real, were asking sharia to contact me. Im take personal ownership in her case if she get the services she needs. Just come home. A lot of times when we see young people missing and we know theyve been abducted we the amber alerts. Where are the amber alerts in the bulk of these stories. Notification system its a National System used by Law Enforcement officers when we have reason to believe that a juvenile has been kidnapped or abducted and theyre in eminent danger. Okay. So not all of these missing cases lift up to the criteria. Yes, maam. So when you dont see it its out of neglect. This is a program that has very strict criteria if im reading it correctly. Yes, maam. Lets talk about sex trafficking. Weve heard a lot of people get an education in what sex trafficking Human Trafficking s basically youre told into a life of prostitution or what have you. Is there a fear some of these teens are facing that harsh reality now . Well, we have no evidence of our recent case, however, its always a possibility, and thats why were trying to reunite these teens with their family members as soon as possible. Okay. If you had to leave us with a headline here, commander, what would you say to people who are saying issue, this is a National Issue that needs the attention right now, what would you say about the sheer bulk of number, bulk number of teenagers missing right now . Whats the headline because i want to make it clear to people that are watching. This is a serious issue but it will take a joint effort. We need the community involvement, um, the other government agencies. This problem will continue until we step up and do something about it. I have one more question when it says critical missing, what does to mean . What should we read into that. The critical missing, um, its under 15 years of age or over 65 because we do critical missing adults but were just talking about juveniles under 15 years of age or if theyre 15 and over theres some circumstances where we have deemed that its critical. I keep having one more question for you. Okay. At the town hall last night we saw a young girl very emotion saying we cant even operate like we used to because everybody is on heightened alert here and my own young 12yearold, mom, on the internet theyre saying look out for a woman shes got large glasses on and shes handing out flyers like some sort of a casting or whatever. So lets set the record straight. What do you want teenagers out there who might be watching, parents watching, what do they need to be doing to make sure they dont end up on your social media radar . Well, the main thing that i can tell you, be careful with, um, the people that you communicate with online. I mean thats a big issue or big concern for us. That young people will meet someone online and then agree to meet them at a location later. I just you were all parents and guardians to talk to your young people. Because one Lady Young Lady was emotional and she said that they just want someone to talk to them. Its as simple as that. That breaks your heart. Not increase and just more proactive approach to getting these names out still too many of these young people missing. Yes, it is. One missing person is one person too many. To make sure they have a recent photo. Were running into that issue. Okay. They dont have recent photo and we cant put it out to the media immediately. Commander chanel dickerson, thank you.

So the story here coming from tmz this is just a scene from empire. This is the quote from tmz producers almost had to shoot the scene they were in together separately. Who im referring to nia long as well as taraji p. Henson apparently had a little bit of drama onset the article says that quote nia was extremely rude to the people in hair, makeup and wardrobe. Something nias people strongly deny. And here whats happening now. Taraji henson was upset about this, and they were apparently going to shoot the scenes separately. I dont know if it actually got down to that point. The article says they almost had to shoot them separately to a point where they blocked the scenes out to shoot them separately at one point. If you watched the show, you know that nia long plays lucious lions ex in the show so clearly the seems like little bit of a drama being created to maybe bring its empire. Drama sells it. I know. Im hoping that it is to like push the show. Its coming out right when the First Episode airs. Maybe its because im watching feud that tells the story of betty davis and Joan Crawford when they were shooting whatever happened to baby jane. I think some of this is a manufactured. Nia long reps are saying this story is quote unquote nonsense. If you watch the show last night. Im curious to see if you see if they actually did any of the blocking. I dont think they did shoot separately. Talk about it on good day. Its coming up. Got to tak hey, tuck. Loving the puppy pictures. Keep them coming. Well show more on good day as well.
