Good morning, as you just heard, we have a lot to get to. Indiana governor mike pence standing by live to taken to backlash of his states new law. Well get the latest on the highstakes Nuclear Talks with iran. We begin with the details of the terror in the sky. Well dig into what if anything, can be done to prevent another horror like this. David kerley starts us off. Reporter as investigators this morning continue to comb through the life of 27yearold Andreas Lubitz impacts of his deadly decision already affecting aviation. Listen to another germanwings copilot address his passengers. My crew today, and me were all here to fly with you. Reporter an attempted reassurance as airlines and paens are asking questions. First, should pilots be more rigorously scened psychologically. Investigators ground prescriptions and a doctors note discarded in his his past hes passed screenings and was issued clearance. It requires little in any time with a psychologist. Pilots are required to selfdiz close if there are any psychological issues or treatments. Obviously in a volunteer system like that it has limitations. Reporter second, how to look for warning signs. There are new reports now that depression may have led lubitz to take extended time off during his Flight Training in arizona. Should that have raised red flags . Absolutely. People fall through the cracks. The reason i think is that theres no set standard for how were supposed to evaluate these people. Reporter and then theres the question that already has some airlinesing. Should pilots be allowed in the cockpit alone . On the Germanwings Flight the pilot can be heard banging on the door trying to get back in. Its a simple fix. Put the flight aten dand in the cockpit when the pilot steps out. Reporter lufthansa says it will do what u. S. Airlines do mandate that two people be in the cockpit at all times. Lets get more on this from former fbi special agent brad garrett. And dan elroy, a pilot at the faa and an executive in the airlines industry. Brad, you have done a lot of profiling. Does this Andreas Lubitz any kind of profile of a m murder . The closest he comes is maybe work place violence mass murderers. People lose their job. Men lose their identity. Men lose their identity and everything is tied up in that and you add Mental Health issues, they want to annihilate what they cant have anymore. And he also wanted to make a name for himself. And so it sort of fits that profile. Thats the thing. One report that he might have told a former girlfriend he wanted to make name for himself. Youre going to be hearing big things about me. People have gone back and stud did eight crashes in the last ten years or so. Five of the pilots have sent off warning signs of some kind. As they do an autopsy of his background, theyre going to find red signs. Both in the depression area. Statements hes made. Talk in a very black dark or stormy way. There will be a number of statements that would be red lights to people who know this type of behavior. That are just not going to be picked up through normal testing. That does get to the question, dan elwell should there be more rigorous testing. Now its sort of on the honor system. Were screened incredibly closely and scrutinized. There is a form of a logical its just a questionnaire, isnt it . It is. We dont in the process see a psychiatrist or psychologist. I think additional screening on a recurrent basis every few year would probably be helpful. Maybe a lowering of standards. You dont require the same amount of hours in the cockpit. That prevent use from getting the kind of observation you would get with someone putting in hundreds and hundreds of hours. I can understand that opinion. But developing those hundreds and hundreds of hours takes years. And youre in front of many, manies. Flight attendants. Other pilots. Check pilots. Supervisors. Theres many opportunities. And it really is a team at an airline. And a flying organization. Everybody is looking out for one another. Everyone is empowered to step in. To make decisions. Its not it is not autocratic. Not if theyre locked out of the cockpit. We have seen reforms in europe. Two people in the cockpit at all times, as we have now in the United States. How about some of these other things. Cameras in the cockpits closer observation. Maybe even giving air Traffic Controllers the ability to intervene and fly the plane remotely. Well, i think certainly cameras, george, are a terrific idea. Because you can watch in realtime if its relaid or you can put it in a black box format and capture it if the plane wrecks, youll be able to recover, see exactly what happened. Im not against the Remote Control part of this. Though as we have experienced in so many other parts of the cyberworld, if someone can penetrate that, think of the danger we would have. Its in effect with unmanned aircraft. If you have atc with the ability to take over the airplane you introduce all kinds of possibilities. Dan elwell brad garrett, thank you very much. Now to the growing outrage over indianas new religious freedom act. Some calling for a boycott of College Basketballs final four in indianapolis. We have an exclusive live interview with governor mike pence after the latest from Rebecca Jarvis. Reporter with thousands taking on indianas governor and lenl slay chur over the new religious freedom act. Governor mike pence says hes willing to clarify the law.

To jason collins, the firstly gay nba player saying is it going to be legal for someone to discriminate against me . And now a new twitter hash tag, boy boy boycottindiana, trending. It doesnt align with the position that is hoosier hospitality. Reporter for this week Rebecca Jarvis abc news new york. Governor mike pence joins us. Thank you george for the opportunity. Was it a mistake to sign this law . Absolutely not. The religious freedom restoration act was signed into federal law by bill clinton more than 20 years ago. It lays out a frame work for ensuring that a very high level of scrutiny is given anytime Government Action impinges on the religious activity of any american. After that, some 19 states followed it, adopted it. After last years hobby lobby case, indiana properly brought the same version that then state senator barack obama voted for in illinois before our legislature. And i was proud to sign it into law last week. But look i think i understand that been a tremendous amount of misinformation. Misunderstanding around this bill. Im just termdetermined i appreciate the time on your show, im determined to clarify this. This is about protecting the religious liberty of people of faith and families of faith across this country. Thats what its been for more than 20 years. And thats what it is now as the law in indiana, george. One of the problems people point out is your civil rights laws dont include Sexual Orientation as a protected class. Some people wrote that it will protect those that oppose gay marriage. Christian bakers florists and photographers should not be punished for refusing to participate in a homosexual marriage. Is america right when they say a flors in indiana can now refuse to serve a gay couple without punishment . The purpose of this bill is to empower and it has been for 20 years the purpose of this legislation, the law in all 50 states in our federal courts and its the law by statute or Court Decision is to empower individuals when they believe that actions of government impinge on their constitut freedom of religion. A lot of people across the country. Looking at obamacare, hobby lobbys case feel their freedom is being impinged upon. The freedom at the federal level, all the state who is visit, are about addressing that. This is not about discrimination. This is about empowering people on government overreach. Yes or no if a flors in indiana refuses to serve a gay couple at their wedding, is that legal now in indiana . George, this is where this debate has gone, with misinformation. Its just a question, sir, yes or no . Theres been shameless rhetoric about my state and about this law and about its intention. All over the internet. People are trying to make it about one particular issue. And now youre doing that as well. The issue here the religious freedom restoration act has been on the books for more than 20 years. It does not apply, george to disputes between individuals unless Government Action is involved. In point of fact in more than two decades, the religious freedom restoration act has never been used to undermine antidiscrimination laws in the country. Im just bringing up a question from one of your spors er supporters talking about the bill right there. It said it would protect a christian florist. Is tolerance a two way street or not . Theres a lot of talk about tolerance having to do with people on the left. And, but here indiana steps forward, to protection the Constitutional Rights and privileges of freedom of religion. For people of faith and families of faith in our state. And this avalanche of intolerance poured on our state is outrageous. Youve been to indiana a bunch of times. You know it. There are no more kinder, more welcoming, more hospitable people in america than in the 92 counties of indiana. Yet, because we stepped forward for the purpose of recognizing the religious liberty rights of all the people of indiana, of every faith, we suffer under this avalanche for the last several days of condemnation and its completely baseless. Governor i i completely agree with you about the good people. I think people are getting tired of it george i do. Tolerance is a twoway street. You say toll vance a twoway street. Does that mean that christians who want to refuse service, or people of any other faith who want to refuse service to gays and lesbians thats legal in the state of indiana . Thats the yes or no question. If there is a Government Action or law that a individual believes impinges on their freedom of religion they have the opportunity to go the court, go the court and the court would evaluate the circumstances under the standards articulated in this act. Thats all it is. And when you see these headlines about indiana licensed to discriminate in indiana. And it just im telling you, george, it is a red herring. I think its deeply troubling. To millions of americans, and frankly, people all across the state of indiana, who feel troubled about government overreach. Its about government overhereby were reaching out to Business Leaders. Im pleased to be on your show speaking across the country ondetermined clear that ipd ipd has strengthened the foundation and the constitutional religious rights for how people. It sounds like what youre saying is people are able to use their religious freedom for their defense. Youre talking about a fix. Ing Sexual Orientation as a protected class under the states civil rights laws. Will you push for that . I will not push for that. Its not on any agenda. Its not be an objective of the people of the state of indiana. It doesnt have anything to do with this law. I mean george. Bill clinton signed the religious freedom restoration act in 1993. I remember that. Then state senator i bet you do. Then state senator barack obama voted for it in the state senate or illinois. The very same language. But illinois does have the protections in their state law. This isnt about individual rights or preferential rights for anyone. Says everyone has the right to the highest level of review if they feel that the government has impinged on the i get to the second possible fix. I really believe, george that it is it has been breath taking to many in indiana, me included, the fact that indiana joined some 30 other states and all 50 states in our federal courts by kree by ening the religious freedom restoration act. And yet from people who preach tolerance every day, weve been under an avalanche of intolerance. Im not going to take it lying down. The putting his expansion plans on hold in your state. Ive been in touch with mark emmerit at the ncaa. Weve been doing our level best to correct the gross mischaracterization of this law that has been spread all over the country be many in the media. Some of the Media Coverage has been shameless and reckless and the online attacks against the people of our state, im not going to stand for it. That may be. We weve tried to be responsible. One addition would be this chapter does not publish or eliminate a defense to a claim under any federal, state or local lair protecting civil rights or preventing dwim nation. Were not going to change the law. Okay. But if the General Assembly in indiana sends me a bill that adds a section that reiterates and amplifies and clarifies what the law really is and what it has been for the last 20 years, then im open to that. But were not going to change this. Its been tested in courts for more than two decades on the federal level in some 30 states. It represents a foundational protection for individuals. I got to tell you, george, theres a lot of people in this country concerned about government overreach into their religious liberty. Im one of them. I stand with them. Weve made sure the courts in indiana have used the highest standards. Let me ask then. Its about protecting the liberty of every hoosier in the state. Do you think it should be legal in the state of indiana to discriminate against gays or lesbians . George. A yes or no question. Come on. Hoosiers dont believe in discrimination. I mean, the way i was raised in a town in Southern Indiana is youre kind and caring and respectful to everyone. Anybody thats been in indiana for five minis knows that hoosier hop tallty tyhospitality is not a slogan, its a reality. People tell me i went to your state, people are so nice. This is not about discrimination. This is about protecting the religious liberty of every hoosier of every faith and were going to continue to work our hearts out to clarify that to the people of indiana and the people of this great country. Yes or no should it be legal to discriminate against gays and lesbians . George youre following the mantra of whats been on line. Im for protecting with the highest standards in our courts the religious liberties of hoosiers. I signed the bill. Were going to continue to explain it to people that dont understand it. If possible well find a way to amplify what this bill really is in the legislative process. I stand by this law. It was an important step forward when bill clinton signed it in 1993. Its an important step forward to protecting the bill of rights. Im proud that indianas adopt the religious freedom act. Governor pence. Thank you for your time. Lets get a reaction from the white house. White House Press Secretary josh earnest is with us. The governor say this is is the same law that barack obama voted for when he was in illinois. I appreciate you having me on the show. If you have to go back two decades to try to justify what youre doing today, it may raise questions. It should be easy for leaders to stand up and say, its wrong to discriminate against people just because of who they love. The fact is, this is not a political argument george as you pointed out in the interview with the governor, Business Leaders all across the country are hesitant to do business in indiana. Not because they dont like the people of indiana. The businesses are more likely to be and the customers are more likely to be discriminated against. The governor is in damage control mode this morning. What does president obama say to businesses thinking now of leaving indiana . Ultimately the businesses have to make decisions based on what they think is in the best interests of their business. Ultimately, george, look a couple of weeks ago, the president gave a speech standing at the foot of the bridge in sellma selma, alabama, the president talked about a couple of things. First, how average americans do have the power to change government. Make their government more fair. But the fact that government leaders have the responsibility to support our citizen. When you have a law like this in indiana that seems to legitimize discrimination, its important for everybody to speak out. Let me ask you about the luke here talks. I want to switch gears. Will there will be deal by tuesday . If not is the president willing to extend the deadline . Hes been very clear that the best way for us to prevent iran from obtaining a Nuclear Weapon is by pursuing diplomacy. To get iran to take steps voluntarily to shut down the path to nuclear repweapons. We want them to inspections. We want to prevent them from taning a Nuclear Weapon. At the same time, this requires iran to make commitments. We have been negotiateing about this xxiii more than a year. The president believes we should be able, to over the course of the last year, reach an agreement by the end of march if one is doable the. If not, no extension . We have been negotiating for more than a year. Its time for the iranians to send a clear signal to the International Community about whether or not theyre willing to make the serious commitments required and basically live up to their rhetoric that theyre not trying to acquire a nuclear rep. The speaker of the house took a tough shot at the president this
