We have breaking news this morning, the top democrat is moving forward to put the president on an impeachment trial. With a heart full of love for america, today i am asking our chairman to proceed with articles of impeachment. That is nancy pelosi who said minutes ago that the house has to act. Our nancy cordes is on capitol hill for us. Why is the speaker doing this right now. It may have seen like a fore gone conclusion, nancy pelosi had not come out in favor of impeaching this president before today. Here announcement raises the possibility that President Trump will be impeached by the end of this month. After two months of investigations and testimony, nancy pelosi says she now supports articles of impeachment. He leaves us no choice but to act because he is trying to corrupt once again the election for his own benefit. Jerry nadler signalled that he is ready to move ahead after a trio of League Experts endorsed the democrats view. President trump abused his office. Yes. You have bribery here. Is there enough evidence here to charge him with the high crime and misdemeanor for obstruction of congress. They say the question that he investigate joe biden would have been impeachable even if he had not upped the pressure by withholding 400 million in aide. But cbs news legal analyst, Jonathan Turley called the case thin. It has to be based on thin, not presumptions. I have gone through all of the crimes mentioned, they do not meet any reasonable interpretation of the trims. They are drafting articles, dont be fooled. Democrats are, none the less, ready to take the next step. The white house responded quickly, Stephanie Grisham tweeting that Speaker Pelosi and the democrats should be ashamed. Nancy, thank you, we spoke to John Dickerson good morning. Good morning, anthony. We heard eight hours of testimony, four legal scholars. On the one hand we had one saying if this isnt impeachable, nothing is, another saying theres nothing impeachable here. Where are we . Well, were kind of where we are and where everything is in washington now where basically where you sit depends on where you previously stood. And the process has to go, you know, a lot longer, further. What yesterday was was an attempt actually to step back from washingtons normal partisan polarization and say when they built the standard for the office in the summer of 1787, what were they trying to do . And is this president living up to that standard, or has he fallen short . But you cant step back in washington. You go back to the constitution, though, john, this question really isnt that complicated, is it . After all of this testimony yesterday its at the absolute center of the presidency. Whats the question at stake here . Did the president use his powers of office for himself and not his country . When they created the constitution, they sat George Washington at the front of the room as a model for building the presidency. Why . Because twice in his career hed given up power and not done the thing for himself but protected the republic. They said thats what we want in a president. He both did it when he gave up his commission as commander of the Continental Army and also when his soldiers tried to stage a coup against the government. Washington heard about the coup and said, how dare you, dont you do that, you must protect the republic. That was the model for the office. Thats at question here. Did the president do something for himself with the powers hes been given. Its at the center of the presidency. Impeachment is always going to be political. Its an inherently political process. This feels particularly partisan. Whats the message to americans tuning in who think its just a partisan mud fight . Yeah. A, youre right. And and but b, let it breathe. You know, let the process go forward. Its going to be messy because it was messy when democrats were the ones, when it was a democratic president who was in the hot seat. Its now going to be messy when its a republican one. But yet this is why yesterday was important. Whats the standard for the office . Did this president fall short . And then if he fell short, whs . The president and his legal team so far have refused to participate in the inquiry. Can they cry foul if they are refusing to participate . Well, i mean, in politics, they can, right. Do they have a legit gripe . If theyre not going to participate. Thats right. One of the weaknesses in the president s case is the president is saying not only did i do nothing wrong, it was perfect. His defenders in congress dont start with that as their argument but complain about the process, it implicitly undermines the president s argument. If you were in a trial and you werent even in town when the crime youre accused of happened, youd want your defense attorney to say he wasnt even in town. When they complain about the process and dont use the president s argument which is what i did was perfect it undermines the president s case. What happens now . I mean, i think people are looking at it, their heads are about to pop off because nothing seems to change. You wouldnt expect it to. It takes time. And so what happens is you have, you know, youll go now to the question of articles of impeachment, and then presumably based on what we think because democrats are in control of the house, it will move into the senate. And then youll is an actual trial and some of these questions about whether the president did whats alleged will actually be adjudicated. As nancy cordes reported, january is clear on the senate calendar. Theyre expected to have a trial. Yes. And republicans will be running things. By the way, weve got a public thats dealing with the end of the Year Holidays and all of that going on. Yes. Thats something for democrats in an Election Campaign and weve got an Election Campaign. All right, john. Thank you so much. Moving on to 2020, one day the navy says they shot three Defense Department employees yesterday and then killed himself, the motive is unclear. Two of the workers died and the other is in the hospital. Jonathan is right outside of the hospital. Were right outside of an entrance to the dock where the shooting took place. And theyre trying to figure out what it sounded like. Were less than half a mile away. A memorial was put on lock down, and visitors were told to shelter in place. Is it real, is it fake type thing. A shooter in his navy uniform shot and killed two ship ward workers before shooting and killing himself. He was deceased by an apparent self inflicted gunshot. It happened near dry dock two, and area where ships and submarines are repaired. A text went out warning of an active shooter situation and telling people to lock down where they were or find shelter. Theyre not letting us out. Is there a shooter . The lock down was lifted and the scene secured. Random. We are two days away from the pearl harbor attack. Still a lot of questions there, jonathan, thank you. One day after Kamala Harris ended her president ial campaign, candidate Elizabeth Warren said any democrat would have the california senator on a short list of potential running mates, and joe biden appears to agree. Shes solid. She is she could be president someday herself, she could be Vice President , she could go on to be a Supreme Court justice. She could be attorney general. I mean, she has enormous capability. Campaigning in iowa, biden was asked about any hard feelings from the first democratic debate. Youll recall when harris confronted him on racial issues and biden said, quote, im not very good at keeping hard feelings. More news on 20 20, the first interview with former new york mayor Michael Bloomberg since he joined the democratic president ial race. Gayle will join him in aurora, colorado. Getting on a plane. Visit the memorial for the shooting victims at the Movie Theater there. A big issue finish bloomberg. Yes, hes going to announce his gun violence plan. Well get to ask for the first time, why are you getting in now, this way . Should be im looking forward to it. In other news, the rideshare giant, thats lyft, is defending its commitment to safety after 19 women allege they were sexually harassed, abused, or raped by lyft drivers. A lawsuit filed yesterday said the companys response to the sexual predator crisis amongst lyft drivers has been appallingly inadequate. This comes just three months after a similar lawsuit by 14 other women. Jamie yuccas is in los angeles with more on the story. Jamie, good morning to you it. What are the allegations . Because its all very disturbing. Reporter good morning. Many women in this new lawsuit say the incidents happened at night after they decided to take a lyft because they had been drinking. They believed they were making a safe choice, but instead ended up fearing for their lives. During the rape i immediately froze and thought to myself that the lyft driver would kill me. Reporter one by one, women came forward wednesday detailing alleged incidents of Sexual Assault by lyft drivers. The next thing i knew, the driver was on top of me trying to put his tongue in my mouth. Reporter a new lawsuit alleges that at least as early as 2015 lyft became aware that lyft drivers were sexually assaulting and raping female customers and failed to adopt and implement reasonable Driver Monitoring procedures designed to protect the safety of its passengers. One alleged victim tells cbs news she fell asleep in her lyft, and her driver assaulted her. Thats what ill never forget. My fear and like, you know, having to makethat sudden decision like how am i going to get myself out of this. Reporter in a statement, lyft says what these women describe is something no one should ever have to endure. We recognize these risks which is why we are relentless in our work to build safety into every aspect of our work. The company says it has launched more than 15 new safety features including daily background checks for all drivers, and inapp Emergency Assistance for passengers. But lawyers allege eight of the plaintiffs in the latest lawsuit were assaulted since those measures were implemented. What lyft has to do is they have to make all rides digitally recorded. If an employee knows that their employers watching them, theyre not going to be committing crimes in the car. Reporter the women are suing for unspecified damages. As for lyft, it says its partnering with the nations largest antisexual Violence Organization called r. A. I. N. As part a Sexual Violence prevention education program. Anthony . Jamie, thank you. President trumps promise of a southern border wall is beginning to take shape in texas. Cbs news got exclusive access to this construction site in donna where an eightmile stretch of wall cost being 167 million is being built. Mireya villarreal real is there. Is this evidence the president is keeping his promise . Reporter you know, take a look, there is the old wall that was built during the bush administration. If we walk about 20 feet over here, there is new construction, and i promise it is there behind all of that fog. As you mentioned, this was a big Campaign Promise for President Trump. However, this wall is not going to stretch all along the southern border, and it is already facing some legal fights from local landowners. Whats the reality of illegal drug smuggling here, especially in south texas . The reality is its all around you. Reporter Border Patrol sector chief rudy karisch is overseeing this new eightmile stretch of border wall in the rg valley just a half mile from the river. The goal to stop illegal human and drug smuggling. This administration has made it clear they want to help us by giving us the tools that we need to be more effective. Reporter is the wall the answer to everything . No, of course not. It can never be. A wall is not going to make an arrest. However, if you have piece of tactical infrastructure in place, maybe that persons going to decide im not going to cross in this location. Im going to go somewhere else. Reporter nine projects are funded in the valley for 109 miles of new wall, part of a larger almost 10 billion government effort to reinforce the border. But its not quite the concrete wall the president promised on the campaign trail in 2016. No windows, no nothing. Precast concrete, going very high. Reporter the only concrete is on the bottom to keep floodwaters away from local landowners. As the president continues to boast about the walls effectiveness and impending completion, there are still apparent cracks in the process. The social media video shows two men recently scaling a portion of refurbished wall in california. The United States governments abusing us. Reporter landowners are also feeling the pressure. Rey cavazos and his family have owned about 69 acres of land along the border for generations. They worry the government will take their property next. To them, the wall is a waste of money. How long do you fight . Were going to fight as long as it takes. We know that its very difficult to fight the government, but were going to hang in there as long as we can. Reporter this project is set to be done in january of 2021. This is a very active area for illegal activity. Border patrol agencies telling us grounds sensors went off not far from here this morning. The chief telling me he wants all of the projects done by the end of next year. Thank you so much. In a new video, one of r. Kellys girlfriends, joycelyn savage, is denying she denounced him on line.

What is joyce lion saying joycelyn saying now . Essentially she said that was continue her. In the video obtained by tmz, savage says, she claims that the singer abused her are, quote, nonsense. She also said she will not be part of the assassination of kellys name, career, and character. Thats not me. Im not that kind of girl that would do Something Like that and betray him. Reporter joycelyn savage is fiercely denied new claims of abuse by r. Kelly. Nearly two weeks ago on the website patreon someone claiming to be sav age said r. Kelly kep her locked up like an animal. In previous interviews she defended kelly saying a member of the staff starved her for days at a time until she learned her scripted lines word for word. Now joycelyn says that was an imposter.

Reporter kellys lawyer said in a statement now that we know that joycelyn savage was not the person behind the stories, we know that the stories that she told were complete fabrications or at least the person was completely fabricating these stories.

But that isnt stopped the finns from naming the capital santas hometown where rudolphs cousins provide sleigh rides, albeit on the ground and where you know who welcomes children of all ages. But all is not what it seems in this Winter Wonder land. So rudolph here is a healthy young reindeer, but hundreds of thousands of others are in real trouble.

A new Trump Administration rule could end benefits for nearly 700,000 americans who rely on food stamps. It exempts work eligible adults from having to obtain steady employment having to obtain benefits. The change was made to encourage people to get jobs. Critics say it passes the burden for providing food for those in need to other organizations. Most of the people who could face removal are ineligible for any other form of government assistance, so this is going to hit them hard. Its the first of three proposed changes to the Food Stamp Program which could affect up to 5 million people. Redskins new wide receiver is giving props to Colin Kaepernick for getting signed. He caught this incredible whoa yeah, incredible catch from the former San Francisco 49ers quarterback. Video of the catch scored about 4. 5 million views on twitter. He really believes the opportunity to catch passes from kaepernick helped him earn a spot on the redskins practice squad. As for kaepernick, though, he has not heard back from the nfl. At least somebody got fined. Kaepernick has no interest from any nfl team. At all, which is really remarkable. Everybody who watched him said he was really good, but the way it was handled on his side was problematic to a lot of coaches who were watching.

The president leaves us no choice but to act because nancy on capitol hill for us. Nancy, good morning. Very tough statement made. Good morning. House Speaker Pelosi did not mince words in her roughly sixminute address. She made it clear that democrats believe its up to them to keep the power of the president in check. Speaker pelosi referencesahat in creating the impeachment process to keep the democracy from ever returning to the hands of a tyrant. If we allow a president to be above the law, we do so surely at the peril of our republic. In america, no one is above the law. Pelosis announcement comes one day after the House Judiciary Committee questioned four law professors about the Legal Standard for impeachment. Cbs news legal analyst Jonathan Turley was the only witness called by republicans. He told the committee that democrats are going too far too fast.

Tomorrow, the Labor Department releases november jobs report. Economists expect employers created about 180,000 jobs. The Unemployment Rate was likely 3. 6 near a 50year low. That is good news. Cbs News Business analyst is here to sort it all out. Ive always heard, jill, dont put your house on the market. Dont look for a job after thanksgiving because aint nobody hiring. But Anthony Mason can say your daughter got a job. Yeah. Fantastic. Nonprofit foundation. Researcher. Were very happy in the family. I think people are surprised to learn there are december jobs that are really hot jobs and heres why. When they are still posted in december, it usually means the company or the organization really needs to fill it. A lot of hiring managers say to me. Look, if weve got that job up there. Its usually because someone left unexpectedly. Theres a problem and we dont want to go back and have to get this reapproved next year, go through another budget process. Are there certain jobs that fall into that category . No. Its totally company specific. But i will say this. Because of this, that you should really keep that job search going. Also, just imagine if you keep it going now, you do have a leg up when it comes to january. But Seasonal Hiring has actually been dropping for like the last six years, hasnt it . Yes Seasonal Hiring in many places has gone down. However, temp and gig workers are certainly going out there and filling these jobs. Many of them, at certain companies, like target or ups, convert into fulltime jobs. I kind of think about a temp worker in the holidays like a try before you buy on both sides. So it can work really well. Since its the Holiday Season and people are all trying to cross people off their gift list, if you have a family and are looking for a job, can you give them something to help the search . I think whats really helpful is you go in for those jobs that seek soft skills, right . And those are the things like what soft skills . A lot of people will say we want people who have communication skills. Work well with groups. Critical thinking. So if you think about that, you can actually help somebody by signing them up for a public speaking class. Even better, i did a fun thing last year end of the year. I went to a bunch of executives. I said what was the best thing you learned when you came into the organization . Someone said an improv class. So imagine you sign your kid or friend up for an improv class. Learn to think on their feet. Its so valuable. What are some of the ways people can take advantage during this time . If you are still looking for a job or starting your search, its so great. December, networking central, right . Holiday parties. Reach out to people. And stay engaged. Im looking for a job. Dont say that. Say, hey, we just want to wish you a happy holiday and stay engaged.

American chestnut trees. Ahead, how researchers are trying to bring them back. Thats coming up. California phones offers free specialized phones. Like cordless phones, phone ringing big button, and volumeenhanced phones. Get details on this state program. Call or visit this morning were exploring a project to bring back an icon. American forests. More than a century ago, nearly four billion american chestnut trees grew in the eastern u. S. , dominating forests from maine to florida. Wood logged from the massive trees helped build the country and was used in everything from homes to railroad ties. Its famous chestnuts fed animals and people. About a century ago, disease wiped out virtually all the trees. Chip reid visited a virginia farm to learn how an Ambitious Program is trying to restore the once mighty chestnut. Reporter the american chestnut tree was once an american icon, a National Symbol of strength and a cornerstone of the appalachian economy. Today it is functionally extinct. Every year it produced bushels of nutritious chestnuts. Supported wildlife like weve d it alsotaed the nptly to t country through trade at the turn of the 20th century and decimated four billion trees in just five decades. Those that remain in the wild cannot reproduce on their own. Rex mann is a retired forest ranger who began volunteering with the American Chestnut Foundation over 20 years ago in hopes of giving the american chestnut tree a fighting chance. You had a health battle, and that inspired you. When i retired, i was diagnosed with stagefour nonhodgkins lymphoma. I had a decision to make. I could do nothing and let nature take care of it, or i could choose to use the best science we had and try to drive that monster into remission. Reporter now for what researchers say is the first time in american history, a functionally extinct tree species could be restored. What is the research that you are doing now . We as a science team are trying to develop an american chestnut tree that has enough blight tolerance that it could survive in the forest. Reporter researchers at the American Chestnut Foundation are breeding the american chestnut with the chinese chestnut which is resistant to the blight. Sometimes they dont work. Reporter after the trees are bred, their burrs which house the nuts are harvested. In there is a pollinated burr. Yep. Yep. Reporter chestnut burr. Inside are two or three chestnuts. They will be planted, and this is just one step in a long, complicated process that they hope will eventually lead to a blightresistant american chestnut tree. But before they are planted and ed again, the burrs must be sorted, then the viable nuts will be planted and injected with the blight to see which ones survive. The young trees that do well will be bred again. Tell me why it is so important to save the american chestnut tree. Well, it was a way of life in the appalachians and the eastern u. S. Forests. Reporter the Mighty American chestnut also bears rotresistant timber which provided homes and industry to the nations heartland. And with it hope for those who had little. Those people were poor. In the fall of the year they would gather chestnuts by the sacks full, carry them down to the country store, and swap them for shoes for the kids. And there were trainloads of chestnuts going to all the major cities and people bought them and roasted them on the street. Reporter now chestnuts roasting on open fires across america are of the larger, less sweet european and asian varieties. We want a tree thats competitive in the forest. Grows tall. And replaces the american chestnut in that great form and timber quality. Reporter if researchers can rescue the tree, the american chestnut could serve both as a model for protecting other vulnerable plant species from insects and disease and as a weapon against Climate Change, capturing more carbon from the air thanks to its larger size. Were blazing a trail for how people who care about this can restore the other trees were losing. I think thats really the big story. Reporter for cbs this morning, chip reid, meadowview, virginia. I hope theyre successful. Yeah, i didnt realize in the Holiday Season were eating european and chinese chestnuts. I want american chestnuts i do, too. They taste better, right . Made in our world ahead in our world of weddings series, how a samesex couple overcame laws fo this is a kpix5 news morning update. Good morning. Im gianna franco. It is 8 25.

Welcome back to cbs this morning. Its time if bring you some of the stories that we call talk of the table. Why . Because its a table, and were all talking. So each we each pick a story to share with all of you. Anthony, it looks like youre up first. ⌞ im kicking this off. We are remembering pioneering tv writer, d. C. Fontana. Thats why you heard that music. She went where no woman had gone before. Dorothy fontana was the first female writer for star trek. She died tuesday in california. Fontana wrote for all three seasons of the original star trek series in the 60s. Shes credited with creating key details for the scifi franchise including writing the backstory for spock, the half human, half vulcan played by leonard nimoy. She was 0 yea 80 years old. She saw the scripts at columbia pictures and said i could write this. I never heard of her. A lot of people didnt know florida d. C. Fond ttana was a woman. Deliberately. She didnt want people to know. She cowrote the pilot for star trek next generation and wrote for bonanza, the six Million Dollar man, the waltons. An incredible career. Two members of the original cast, george takae, he said we have lost a true genius, in a sweet. And called a pioneer. I assumed she was a man, too. What does d. C. Stand for . Dorothy. Dorothy fontana. Tony . Ive got a story that will seem like a local story, but stick with me, its national. If youre a parent, youre going to want to hear this. New yorkers are coming to terms with recent bans, there was a ban on plastic bags, a ban on singleuse styrofoam. Got overturned, but it was a ban. Now theres talk about the next thing that may be banned paper receipts. Thg,g athe drug store. City Council Members are considering this crackdown becaus bpa. There are some studies that show the chemical at high levels could harm the female reproductive system. Now most Cash Register receipts are towed with the chemical. Are coated with the chemical. Under the ban, if it goes through, retailers would be required to offer emailed receipts. Why does this matter to parents . Pin 2012 the fda was so concernd about bpa that it took it out of baby bottles. Banned it. The long receipts, if youre a parent, what do you do when you have a baby in the car . They love those things. Most of us get the receipt and throw it out anyway. Yeah. So if youre just you dont have kids, you dont worry about it. First of all, dont give it to your kids, think devices. The second thing, this may be like the bulge in your pocket where you come out of the store, what is on there a lot of the long receipts have coupons. We should point out that the American Chemical Council says nothing to see here. Theres no harm related to bpa in receipts. This is a precautionary thing by the city council. Thats not a local story. Youre right. Mine is about the Houston Rockets because i just love basketball. And i really like when you see something that just doesnt make any sense. The Houston Rockets will likely protest a blown call, and it does look blown on a dunk made by james harden on tuesday. Take a look at this. Harden, the steal and the dunk oh, he missed it well, the ball went in, you got to see a tight show. The officiating crew mistakenly ruled it went in and flipped out. It was clearly in. See the net flipped up. It went in. Yeah. The rockets ended up losing to the San Antonio Spurs 135133 in double overtime. Ooh. Thats a game changer there. A big game changer there. It clearly went in. Wow. The net flips up. Thats no fair that they dont get that point. According to espn, the rockets will likely file an official protest. Theyre hoping to be either awarded the victory because they were winning at the time of the blown call, or have the final seven minutes and 50 seconds of the game replayed. A doover. What do you think should be done . That is always so tough there. You know after that moment, the whole game changes. I know it does. You can never put it back in the bottle. You cant. I dont see reversing the outcome of the game necessarily. I think maybe replaying it is the best way to do it. No one asked me, but i would vote that they get to replay the game. No one asked me, though. I would go with the doover, too. Boys and girls in the studio, friends and countrymen, im taking off now. Why . As we said at the beginning this is viacom cbs this is viacom cbs newsday where were joining companies. And i get to ring the bell at nasdaq with spongebob. Never met spongebob before. Spongebobs going to be there. You get to meet spongebob. Stephen colbert and trevor noah and the big muckety mucks will be there, too. Im heading to the nasdaq, were going to ring the bell promptly at 9 30. Then going to denver to talk to mayor Michael Bloomberg. A long day. What a handsome new logo. God willing, i will be back evening and be on the set tomorrow. Looking forward to. Im going to leave. Bye. Goodbye, safe travels. Taking my things. Taking my new viacom cbs book. Thank you, viacom cbs. So generous. Thank you. You can write all your thoughts. Write all my thoughts. Ill see you guys. Take it easy. Byebye. Bye. All this week weve been exploring the world of weddings, looking at the different ways people get married and celebrate their love around the globe. Seth doane traveled to israel where he met a samesex couple who had to find a legal loophole to get their marriage recognized there. Reporter this has all of the trappings, traditions, and excitement of a wedding, but gay marriage is not legal here in israel. Israel embraces gay tourists and hosts a gay pride but lags behind when it comes to gay rights. Still, hundreds of wedding guests have gathered in a very public show of support. True colors shining through reporter their celebration was no dbt different. The venue was a nightclub. The officiant was not a rabbi. [ cheers ] they wanted to keep some of the classic jewish traditions. The toasts, the giant chupa or canopy representing home. Shalom [ applause ] reporter and the stomping on glasses. I think that just by doing a big wedding in israel that thats our big statement. Not letting the system take you down. Reporter the couple met almost a decade ago when they were serving in israels army. Do you think it was love at first sight . Well it developed. Im not sure if it was love at first sight. It depends who you ask. Reporter we were with them ahead of the big day as they checked out the venue, the decorations, and those allimportant details at their tel aviv apartment. We heard how the stresses of planning a wedding are universal. Has it always been a peaceful situation, or have there been arguments . Probably arguments. Reporter as a samesex couple, there were considerable differences in wedding planning. [ cheers ] reporter the tel aviv celebrations were part two of the wedding. Back in august, the guys and their families traveled to portugal where they could legally marry. Then a loophole allows the union to be officially recognized in israel. In 2018, more than 400 samesex couples registered their foreign weddings here. Etai pinkasarad was one of the first samesex couples to marry outside of the country. Hes on the city council and founded the lgbtq center that staged a mass protest during pride in june. We wanted to give an opportunity for as many couples as possible to get kind of married. Reporter married from a publicity perspective more than a legal one. Absolutely. Reporter israels pride is a destination for gay travelers, but this is a jewish sedate jewish state. Orthodox oppose the tradition. Being gay is a sin in judaism . It is,in the jewish law. Reporter here, marriage is a religious institution. Theres no civil Union Straight or gay. In tel aviv, you have gay parties, you have gay pubs and bars. But sometimes it feels as if like the government is using tel aviv or the Gay Community as like a what is that . Showing to the world all israelis very liberal place, very does is very accepting because when you compare it to the other countries of the middle east, yeah, its right. Reporter still, theyre proud of their country and their relationship. [ cheers ] even if its not legal, we want all of our friends and families to be there and to keep the jewish tradition. Reporter at their ceremony, they selected the rainbow as their wedding colors. I like your hair here. Something mayors Mom Incorporated into a hairdo. You dont need to know hebrew to understand the connection between the families. How are y . Wow, the couples reporter just after the vows, the guys changed into tshirts for a brothersister family danceoff. Is this wedding everything you hoped for . Yeah i think it is. During the ceremony, i was looking at the crowd. I said, i have to memorize this picture of all the people we know and all of the people we love standing together at the same place. Its amazing. Reporter the legalities or lack thereof are overlooked here at least for this celebratory moment where all that matters is love. Ve for cbs this morning, seth doane, tel aviv. Thank you so much. Whether its recognized by the state or not, looked like a lot of fun. It seemed that they support gay tourism but not gay rriage. This is a d that back to the founding of the state.

That principle was embodied by rosa parks whose actions inspired the civil rights movement. She was arrested 64 years ago this week for not giving up her seat to a white passenger on a bus in montgomery, alabama. Cbs this Morning Saturday cohost Michelle Miller is at the library of congress in d. C. Where an exhibit is detailing parks life. Good morning. What can people see there . They can see a whole lot. We can tell you, you know, we grew up with that story, right. It was told to us in school, our parents shared it with us. This exhibit gives us a full picture of her life. Her decade of activism before that event and struggle and triumph after it. There were writings, memorabilia, and 2,500 photographs. The library is showing us the rosa parks was no accidental activist. Few people in this world have launched a revolution sitting down. That day ms. Parks said, this is it. Reporter enough is er tha liarian carla hayden is giving rosa parks a closer look. What do you want to show me first . The impact of her Family History. Reporter hayden says the exhibit rosa parks in her own words reveals a granddaughters of slaves from teen rebel defying injustice to naacp leader to civil rights icon. You see in her own handwriting her thoughts, her inner feelings, and she had such poetry. Theres just so much hurt reporter adrienne cannon curated the collection which contains more than 7,000 of parks writings. I had been pushed around all my life, and i felt at this moment i couldnt take it anymore. Reporter but cannon says while writing often on recycled paper, parks found her voice strategizing against segregation. It was mrs. Parks plan all along to do everything she could in order i 1954 wn he worked wit naacp to counsel blacks jail under segregation laws. My first civil rights case was claudette carter, the 15yearold girl who on march 2nd, 1955, did the sam that rosa parks did but did it nine months before. Reporter the case may have set an example, but not the stage. That came on december 1st, 1955. I was on that bus reporter jane gunter, a thenpregnant military wife, is the only other person to admit she was there. All the sudden there was a tall man standing in front of me. I stood up and said, she can have my seat. And when i said that, he pushed his knees into my knees and said, dont you dare. Reporter when she realized years later what she witnessed, she called to meetd mber you no, she didnt remember me. I said the story about the tall man, and she instantly said, you were there. Rterks convin launched the yearlong bus boycott in montgomery. They knew that there would be some event that would allow them to put the plans in action.
