Voted on a temporary plan, and were learning that proposal calls for paying city workers every 28 days instead of every two weeks. The mayor broke down why he believes it will work. If we could move the pay period from a 14day pay period to a 28day pay period, we would be able to keep not only the city open in april, but certainly in may and june. Then we run into the same problem, but 90 days for calm heads to come to the table for our elected officials, including myself, members of city council, to be the solution to this crisis. Reporter the White Collar Union says the quarterly tax collection due on may 1st would also help the city. But we did some digging and we found that more than 10 million in city expenses are also due to be paid in may. Among them the school board, city payrolls and a bond payment. Now, city council is scheduled to vote on this proposal next wednesday at its regularly scheduled meeting. And then after that other unions are also to vote. I should also tell you that we did grab the chief of the firefighters union. And he tells us how he feels at 11 30. Live for now in Atlantic City, Monique Braxton, nbc 10 news. Monique, thank you.

The subcontracted employees who work for prime flight and mcginn security are on the picket line. These are baggage handlers, custodia custodians, Security Officers and wheelchair attendants.

To decision 2016, the candidates for president on both sides are all lashing out at donald trump today over a controversial statement he made about abortions during an msnbc town hall meeting with Chris Matthews. Nbcs Peter Alexander has that story. By the way, nobody, nobody respects women more than donald trump. Reporter this morning for donald trump that may be a tough sell pressed by Chris Matthews trump insisted if abortion were to be outlawed women violating the ban should be punished. The answer is that there has to be some form of punishment. For the woman . For ten years . I dont know. How do you ban abortion . You know, youll go back to a position like they had where people will perhaps go to illegal places. Reporter trumps controversial comments drawing fierce denouncements from the Abortion Rights Group naral warning trumps unhinged position sure to endanger women and the antiabortion group march for life. Often women make a choice for abortion out of desperation and the last thing she needs is threat of punishment. Reporter both now accusing him of being alone on an island of ignorance. Probably donald trump will figure out a way to say he didnt say it or was misquoted or whatever. But i dont think so. I dont think thats an appropriate response. Reporter ted cruz saying in a statement, of course we shouldnt be talking about punishing women. We should affirm their dignity. Within three hours trump did a 180. If abortion were illegal, his campaign wrote, the doctor or any other person performing this illegal act upon a woman would be held legally responsible, not the woman. Adding, the woman is a victim in this case as the life in her womb. My position has not changed. But trump defended abortion rights with tim russert in 1999. Im very prochoice. Reporter Hillary Clinton accused trump of leading an assault on womens rights. What he said today is just among the most outrageous and dangerous statements that ive heard anybody running for president say in a really long time. Reporter Bernie Sanders calling trumps words shameful. The idea of punishing a woman, that is just, you know, beyond comprehension. Reporter trumps already extremely unpopular with female voters, 70 reporting an unfavorable view. A potential liability if trump faces clinton this fall. When its all stripped away, so much of the republican agenda is to turn the clock back on women. Make no mistake about it. That was nbcs peter al alexander reporting. Meanwhile, Bernie Sanders in pittsburgh this morning. He spoke to a crowd saying International Trade agreements has stolen jobs from pennsylvanians. And flash flooding, hail and tornadoes are all possible across the southeast today, part of a severe storm system that spawned tornadoes in oklahoma and in arkansas.

Now to little rock, arkansas, where there are reports of flash flooding this morning. This is what it looked like yesterday when a creek overflowed its banks near a park. Crews had to rescue several people whose cars were swept away by the flood waters. Yeah, one Arkansas State student found a way to make the best of the flooding in his dorm.

Thank you, bill. I think. Our area has seen high pollen counts. And forecasters say 2016 could be a rough year for spring allergy sufferers. Here to share expertise on the topic is Nurse Practitioner tracy in our digital operations center. Thanks for being with us this morning. Hi, how are you . Tell us about the projections for this years allergy season. So this years actually going to be a worse than usual allergy season because of the mild wet winter that weve had, unfortunately. And how do people know if theyve got allergies or just the common cold . So sometimes it can be a struggle to really find the differences between them. But allergies typically have more itchy eyes, itchy ears, clear, runny drainage from the nose whereas the common cold can make you more tired, more congested and even potentially run a slight fever. Yeah. Sometimes i feel fine other than my nose is running and then i know its just allergies. When should people start thinking about getting prescription, going to a doctor and getting prescription medicine as opposed to taking overthecounter stuff . That can be a struggle. There are so many medications overthecounter that you can use. Eye drops, antihistamines, but you can followup with your primary care provider or walk into a clinic and we can evaluate you and make sure were providing the right medications for you and if necessary or clinically indicated write a prescription. Tracy, do you have an opinion on whether is it better to get shots or just take oral medicine . Is one better than the other . Or does it just depend on the person or the circumstances, i guess, with your doctor . It definitely depends on the person. Those who have severe allergies might be better off doing routine allergy shots whereas some people who have the seasonal allergies might be better off starting medications early during allergy season. Tracy, Nurse Practitioner, we really appreciate certainly for this time of the year your expertise on allergies. Thank you very much. Thank you for having me. Graduation season is almost here.
