Abruptly ended a press conference yesterday without even answering one question. Sean, sean, sean. Where did sean go . Sean, sean. Sean. Come on. Sean. Announcer this eye opener is presented by toyota. Lets go places. Welcome to cbs this morning. The house will make a second attempt today to vote to repeal obamacare. This time Republican Leaders say the bill will not fail. President trump and his congressional allies agree to add billions of dollars in funding to their health care legislation. That change persuaded some republicans to shift from no to yes. Those members say the added money will protect patients with preexisting conditions. It did not persuade the House Democratic leader nancy pelosi who calls the bill a moral monstrosity. Nancy cordes is on capitol hill with the countdown to todays vote. Nancy, good morning. Good morning. After weeks of uncertainty and cajoling and negotiating, Republican Leaders now say they have the wreck quit support within their own party to pass this Health Care Bill today. Rushed through without key detailsen from the Congressional Budget Office about how much it will cost and what the impact will be on people with preexisting conditions. We need a cbo score. Republicans and democrats clashed in a late night session paving the way for todays vote. This process to put it bluntly is a mess. Because we have enough votes. Gop leaders and the Vice President have spent the past three days leaning hard on undecided republicans. How many people have changed their votes from no to yes . Theres been a number. Im not going to get into details. Some held out until the last minute. Im happy to announce that the people of missouri will have it. The gop plan would reduce obamacare subsidies for lowering the costs. Instead people making less than agebased tax credits. The bill seeks to lower premiums by allowing states to opt out of obamacares minimum coverage rules which requires insurers to cover things like maternity care. They can also charge higher rates for some with preexisting conditions but only if those states set up high risk pools to help people afford it. This is sort of to tray to win them over. The american medical association, the aarp, and the american cancer society. Republicans argue obamacare has its own problems with insurance providers pulling out almost every month. Whats going to happen if congress does nothing when youve got states like iowa that might end up with no insurers in the individual market . Its up to its up to the Trump Administration once they cant pass a bill to work with us to the most recent analysis we have from the Congressional Budget Office a couple of months ago is 24 million fewer americans would have insurance under this bill. With dont know if this analysis would change under new versions of the bill but republicans argue the analysis has been flawed and they eastern been encouraging their members to say yes, that the bill is going to ujds go major changes in the senate anyway, gayle. All right. Nancy. We will all be watching. The House Committee hears new testimony from Admiral Mike Rogers and fbi director james comey. They will testify in private about russian interference in the last election. In a Public Session yesterday comey told senators that he was, quote, mildly nauseous that his handling of the Hillary Clinton email investigation could have affected the last jeff pegues is outside. Jeff. Reporter he did talk about what he believes is the clear and present danger from russia. What kind of threat do you believe russia presents to our democratic process . Certainly my view, the greatest threat of any nation on earth given their intention and capability. Fbi director james comey offered the senate ju ry committee his chilling assess mnlts on meddling. Is it fair to say the russian government is still involved in american politics . Yes. Reporter the fbis involvement opened last july. Congress was notified in march. Comey said he didnt make the disclosure to congress before the election because the bureau doesnt make its investigations public. Was it appropriate for you to comment on one investigation about the other in. I think i treated both investigations consistently under the same principles. But in july comey made headlines by announcing Hillary Clinton would not be charged over her emails without consulting the justice department. He incited an impromptu tarmac meeting between then attorney general Loretta Lynch and former president bill clinton. That was the capper for me. He was notified 11 days before the election about classified emails found on a computer that huma abedin shared with her husband anthony weiner. She had a practice of forwarding emails to him, i think, to print out for her so she could delve them to the secretary of state. His explanation to congress was personal and revealing. Look, this is terrible. It makes me mildly nauseous to think we might have had some impact on the election. Reporter director comeyd he had two choices. Tell me what you would do. Would you speak, or would you conceal . Reporter according to some officials his actions did deviate from protocol. Earlier this year in january they launched an investigation into his as and yesterday comey revealed he has already been questioned in connection with that probe. Charlie. Jeff, thanks. Former National Security adviser susan rice will not testify next week before the senate panel looking for russian interference into thekt years election. It noted their invitation was not bipartisan. Republican senator Lindsey Graham who chairs the subcommittee invited rice. Graham wants o ask about her. Trump tweeted, rice is refusing on, quote, subcommittee. Not good. President trump will sign a new executive order this morning targeting rules that separate religion and politics. It also says religious groups should not have to pay for Birth Control in their employees health insurance. The president will also attend a national day of prayer event before traveling to new york city. Major, good morning. Good morning. The president s order will attempt to roll back the Johnson Amendment name after lyndon b. Johnson. Its a 63yearold provision in the tax code that prevechblts churches and other organizations from endorsing and contributing to political candidates. We have a prolife president. Last night the Vice President applauded President Trumps prolife advocacy in spit e of the 35th order. I will get rid of and destroy the Johnson Amendment. It also will exempt churches and organizations from engaging in politics. Another one, draft language to permit federal contractors to discriminate against lbgbt employees. Rolling back things is one thing. Achieving middle east peace is another. The president told palestinian president Mahmoud Abbas at the white house that he like his predecessors would help start peace talks with israel. Three previous president s have made the same pledge and fallen short. We will get this done. Mr. Trump offered no details but said peace is not as hard as it looks. Its something they think is frankly not as Difficult People thought. He has said little about israels expansion of settlements. Mr. Trump criticized violence against israel. There can be no lasting piece unless the palestinian leaders speak in a unified voice. Middle east peace is a longterm process for the white house. Of much more concern, north korea. And, gayle, Rex Tillerson said yesterday theyre putting together a new round of sanctions against north korea against Nuclear Weapons and technology.

Does the reenforcement of police put you at ease . What congress put together will substantially reimburse us. Senn certainly between Election Night and inauguration night and it provides for resorss going forward. Reporter new york is not the only city footing the president s bill. Since his inauguration, President Trump has traveled seven times to his maralago resort in florida costing Palm Beach County roughly 60,000 a day to provide security.
