they're making progress on that front. right now this is the point in time count. this is the first step in reaching their goals in ending homelessness by 2016. the point in time is a national count and it determines just how much federal money montgomery county will get to fight homelessness. we just fed in some video of advocates out on the streets right now interviewing these folks trying to find out where homeless are spending the night, spending this very early morning, this very cold morning here out in downtown bethesda. they are finding out if folks have those medical or physical needs as well. in fact, last year's count, they found 159 medically vulnerable, they say, people, and so far 1 so of them are now living at home. >> we're celebrating the civil rights act, the 50th anniversary of it. but what's sort of lost in all that is this effort to really end homelessness. what's most significant for me, part of the fact that dr. king was a visionary, was that all of his

morning, nikki. >> reporter: good morning. this plan could get very expensive. if you consider there are more than 1400 public schools inned state of -- in the state of maryland and putting an armed officer in each one of those schools, that is going to have a big bill. let me tell you a little bit more about this bill. the bill proposes it would all happen before the next school year. 900 officers would be put in these schools. a house committee held a hearing yesterday on the bill which is proposalled by baltimore county delegate john cluster. this would be expensive, nearly $100 million price tag. but delegate cluster says if you've ever seen a kid killed, it's something you never forget. he used to be a baltimore county police officer. the bill is intended to prevent mass shootings like sandy hook and even threats like the one we saw here at c.h. flowers high school where violent threats were made against students on social media. not everyone is supportive, however.
