Its unclear how many people pe have been shot or their or their conditions we have a crew headed to the scene and whaevell get y the latest as soon as we get it. Again police in involved olve police on the scene of an a officer involved shooting nearer 13th street and good hope roadoo in southeast washington. The other big story at 9 00 and all nighter on capitolt hill. Ll. Some Democratic Senators amara a thon session to send a messagesa before the final confirmationrmn president of president trumps nominee for education second. Ecn the goal is to convince onenn or more republican not toot t support betsy devos but it mighg be uphill battle. Bate. Fox5s Melanie Alnwick live at capitol hill with what happensas if this vote ends in tie. Tie good morning, mel. Orning, m reporter good morning,ng i think weve heard this before. If the vote ends ihen aar tie, n vicepresident mike pence will be called on to cast the tieie breaker vote. Ote this is going to be historic either way. Because vicepresident has never been called on before to cast a tie breaking vote for a cabinetn member thats according to the senate historian. Historian. I believe you could also say this is historic in teryomsu oe amount of opposition that an education secretary nominee iss getting youre seeing right nown live pictures from the senate floor. This is ron white of oregon tooo the mike just a few moments agoo procession of democrats taking the floor overnight all nightigt each one speaking anywhere fromf 30 minutes to an hour until u another colleague could come upe theyre allowed to have 30 minutes their hours of debate from the time a nominee gets ouo of committee to the time of thee final full senate confirmationro vote and democrats said theyree going to use every single minutt of it trying to to see if just perhaps one more republican senator might beht b willing to flip his or her vote. Yesterday debbie of michigan mhn hinted that there might be one n other republican there willingil to flip. Li however, she would not name n names. So it really is up to the very last minute going to be a nailea biter. Lets talk a little bit about ai betsy devos and why she is so controversial. Rs a lot of people point to go herr background as a billionaire, a philanthropist, bigtime gopimeo donor. Giving a lot of money to thehe republican party. Shes also given some money to o the arts as well. The arts as we shes been chairman ofll the michigan gop4 times but shes never really worked in publicli education. N. Her website says shes ahes a disruptor and advocate fightingn to remove barriers and enactndna change that means that she is aa very strong supporter of Charter Schools, and in redirectingti money from Public Schools to t support school choice. But critics have hit her harderh over her lack o Public Schools. Her lack of experience withnce h Student Loans and her lack ofan knowledge of lawss an protectint special education. Tion. And so thats really what peoplo are fighting against here. But to be fair some people in pn this country really dont likel the government getting involvede in Public Education and think there should be less involvemenl in it. So, again, were right now at 50 50 senators for and against a that vote coming at noon today. Y as i said, its going to comee down to the wire. E w live here capitol hill, Melanie Alnwick, fox5 local news. Ews. We were sitting here talking. Just obviously i know you wereue listening to the negatives for the people who are against her but i meanho a what make her yar fid for the job . Reporter well, shess qualified because president sidet trump says shes qualified. And she was instrumental in thee Charter School movement inemt in michigan. Mich thats where shes really put au lot of her money and trying to advocate for Charter Schoolsools and, again, for public funds going to school so its a completely oppositeppt view of education public moneyon for private education as opposes to public money for Public Education. So she knows how to advocate fof those issues. She knows how to pass laws andnd work toward advancing her causes, but as far as any actuaa experience in education, in, in Public School systems, she has none. Ne though she does have experiencee in investing in for Profit Education companies. S all right. R breaking it down. King idown thanks, mel. President trump lets talk abou the white house right now.
