Z27mkz z16fz y27mky y16fy hundreds of u. S. Diplomats are warning that mr. Trumps ban on refugees and citizens from seven predominantly muslim countries makes the u. S. Less safe, not more. Major garrett is at the white house. Im a bit uncomfortable with the very public activities candidly, and i think that has to be very, very carefully considered. Reporter former cia director David Petraeus told Congress Today the unprecedented uprising of dissent within the state department over President Trumps immigration and refugee order cannot be ignored. There could come a point in time where, if your advice is not taken over and over and over again, then i think you have an obligation to your own organization and to the country to say perhaps i should let you get someone whose advice you might listen to, since mine is reporter more than 800 career diplomats have signed a dissent cable that Rex Tillerson confirmed today as secretary of state will find waiting for him at the state department. The cable said mr. Trumps order will have little practical effect in improving Public Safety because a vanishingly small number of immigrants to the u. S. Have committed acts of terrorism. The net result will not be a drop in terror attacks in the United States, it said, rather it will be a drop in International Goodwill toward americans. The dissent process began during the vietnam war and allows diplomats to protest government policy without fear of retribution. White House Press Secretary sean spicer was asked about pushback at the state department on monday. I think they should either get with the program or they can go. Reporter later that day the president fired acting attorney general sally yates, an Obama Administration holdover, who said she would not defend the immigration executive order. Is it the president s point dissent it can be rooted in a philosophical disagreement thats not necessarily in defiance of his orders and there can be a dialogue . People have a right to speak their mind, and there is a difference between expressing dissent and concern and not implementing a lawful order as the acting attorney general did the other night. Reporter the white house today also issued what it called a clarification, saying anyone with a green card is now fully exempt from the executive orders travel restriction. Scott, when that order was originally unveiled, the white house said the travel ban did apply to green card holders, then said, no, they would only face extra scrutiny in the process. This latest change, it bears noting, is the result of both internal and external criticism. Major garrett at the white house, thanks. Americans working in iraq are telling our Charlie Dagata that the travel ban is complicating their work. Reporter working in iraq has always been a risky prospect, especially for u. S. Citizens. But lawyer Thomas Donovan says made it more dangerous. This ban makes it more difficult for us to live and to work and to gain the trust of the iraqi people that we need to continue doing our jobs. Reporter hes been working in the Energy Sector here for the past ten years. Hes seen the worst of the civil unrest that followed the war, but he told us joining forces with the iraqis to fight isis had improved relations. Until the travel ban sent that into a tailspin. For those iraqis that simply do not understand it and see it as a muslim ban, all that it becomes is more ammunition to use and more reason to not trust the United States and the people of the United States that work here. Reporter some companies with American Employees arent taking any chances. Weve learned one business has already pulled u. S. Staff out of baghdad. The Iraqi Parliament has voted unanimously to retaliate, though its not clear what theyll do. Hanan fatlawi led the fight. Its a bad message to iraqis. Reporter you have said its insulting. Yes, its insulting. Reporter and she said it plays right into the hands of isis. This is a negative message to other muslims to be extremists. If you are treating someone in a bad way, you are encouraging him to be bad. Reporter were expecting widespread antiamerican demonstrations in baghdad and several other cities on friday, scott, to denounce the ban and demand americans be expelled. Charlie dagata for us tonight. The ban is at the center of a legal battle here at home, and Demarco Morgan is following that. Reporter the cheers erupted the moment word spread, the aclu had just persuaded a federal judge to halt deportations of immigrants and refugees from seven predominantly muslim countries. That was saturday night, and lead attorney lee gelernt was the crowds hero. Thank you, thank you, thank you i expected there to be people outside the courtroom after we won, but to walk out and see 1,000 people cheering, just an unbelievable experience. Reporter u. S. District judge ann donnelly also ordered the government to provide the aclu with a list of anyone being detained by customs at u. S. Airports. The judge in a nutshell saw through what the government was doing and gave us what we wanted. Reporter but after four days gelernt is frustrated. The government has not provided that list. The government says there are no names to provide since all 109 people held over the weekend have been released, but gelernt believes the 109 number is low and there were actually hundreds more affected. He wants to know who they are and where they are. One thing were going to see from the list when we get it is that people were removed from the country after we filed the case. If thats true, and we believe it is true, we will go back to brought back to the United States because they could be in real danger. Reporter whats the end goal . I think the end goal is to get our refugee system and our immigration system back to where they were before this muslim ban came out. Reporter lawyers are scheduled to be back in court tomorrow. Scott, its a status hearing when the judge will determine where both sides stand and what should happen next. Demarco morgan, thanks. In another big story tonight, inmates are Holding Hostages inside a maximum security prison in delaware and chip reid is there. Chip . Reporter good evening, this hostage situation began this morning at about 10 30 a. M. When a prison guard made an emergency call for immediate assistance after four corrections employees were taken hostage by inmates. Police and s. W. A. T. Teams responded quickly to the even and this afternoon, two hostages were released one had nonlifethreatening injuries, the r Law Enforcement agencies, including the fbi are trying to negotiate a peaceful resolution and we are told there are good negotiations going on. A lawsuit was filed against this facility in 2015 primarily over the care of inmates with mental illness, it was filed in september and, scott, the department of justice says that the delaware prison system has the fifth highest rate of overcrowding in the nation.

Just when you thought there were no comforts left in air travel, airlines are about to launch a new lower class of service. Heres kris van cleave. Reporter american and United Airlines will soon offer a limited number of basic economy fares. They come with a low price and a catch. Welcome aboard. Reporter passengers cant choose a seat, are allowed only one carryon that must fit under the seat and likely will be the last to board. These basic economy fares are use or lose no changes, no cancellations but the airlines the same experience as everybody else has in economy, except, of course, no overhead bins and youre probably going to be in a middle seat. No overhead bin access has senator Chuck Schumer calling for a new law. They charge you when you store luggage. They shouldnt charge you for the overhead bin, plain and simple. Reporter these restrictive bargain tickets come as ultra lowfare carriers like spirit are increasingly competing for their customers. When we check roundtrip nonstops from chicago to los angeles in march, spirits bare fare was about 22 below united and beat american by nearly 100. United and american have not announced the new pricing. Sean kennedy represents the airlines. An airline is offering a cheaper product for customers that want to fly, theyre budget conscious. Im not sure why there is controversy. Reporter it will be a costconscious debate at 30,000 feet over getting just what you paid for. Kris van cleave, cbs news, fort lauderdale.

How do you feel when you come up on that Observation Deck . Ill probably cry. Ill be bad its over, big time. Reporter its an unlikely day for a couple whose unlikely day could be traced back to a hospital bed. I was sedated until tuesday evening. So when i came out, my mom is like, who is that firefighter. Im like, are you kidding me right now . I was just blown up. Reporter in april 2013, rose ann was watching the runners cross the Boston Marathon finish line. I heard the first one go off.

He was trying to hold the tourniquet, and then me trying to keep her calm, and myself calm. Love amid surgery, doctors visits and the long search for a prosthetic leg.

Captions by vitac www. Vitac. Com this is the cbs overnight news. Welcome to the overnight news. President trumps nominee to the Supreme Court, federal Appeals Court neil gorsuch, paid a Courtesy Call to Republican Leaders on capitol hill. Vice president mike pence showed him around and the first stop was the office of Senate Majority leader Mitch Mcconnell. Welcome, everyone. This is the first opportunity to meet judge gorsuch. The president made an outstanding pick. Reporter mcconnell will lead the confirmation battle and it may be a rocky road. Reporter democrats refer to this as a stolen case. They believe it was president Obamas Supreme Court justice. They have threatened to hold up the nomination for an undefined period of time. Some have said they are going to vote no. Others say they have a lot of questions. I have very deep, serious concerns as to whether he is in the main stream. Reporter like many Senate Democrats, Dick Blumenthal expressed skepticism. Im concerned about his stance on privacy rights, worker and consumer protection. Im going to continue to review his record. Reporter republicans were thrilled, praising gorsuch as impressive, respected, a consistent conservative. South Dakota Republican john thune. I think its very tough, very tough to attack this judges credentials. You look at his judicial experience, great temperament. Reporter that helped him win unanimous approval from the senate in 2006 when he was up for among those who did not oppose his nomination, then senators barack obama, hillary clinton, joe biden, and the current democratic leader, Chuck Schumer, who has said for weeks he has one key criteria. Nominate a main stream person, not someone way out of the main stream. If theyre out of the main stream and wouldnt barner bipartisan support, he said well fight that. Reporter but last night he said today i am nominating chief judge merrick garland. Reporter republican leader Mitch Mcconnell insists its apples and oranges. This is the beginning of a fouryear term. This is not in the middle of a president ial election. Reporter it takes 60 votes to confirm a Supreme Court judge, but republicans have left the option open to knock that down t filibuster, depending on how long democrats stall.
