Come and sit down. Come on. They just left all her stuff out here, right . This is disgusting that they would just leave her unattended on a bus stop half naked. Sadder sup visor available . Im a supervisor. That woman out there like that. When i say she has no clothes on, she literally had just a hospital gown on, no underwear, and it is at least 30 or colder degrees out here. So the idea that theyre going to take her back to the hospital where security discharged her, that is so irresponsible. Reporter now what mr.

The university of maryland Medical Center midtown campus released this statement about this incident. It says, we share the shock and disappointment of many who have viewed the video.

Im glad its being brought to light hopefully something will be done and addressed. Heartbreaking. Try to get you more details cleaning her condition. First up the president backtracking a bit the commander in chief says its unlikely he will be i muellers team he had he heading the investigation into possible russian meddling during the 2016 election. The president doesnt think an interview would be necessary because he said there was no collusion between his campaign and the russians. Sentiments backtracking from last june when the president said he would 100 be willing to talk with mueller unoath. The mid term elections are later this year but congress could look pretty different before we even get there. There are more lawmakers especially republicans throwing in the towel ahead of the races now democrats are feeling pretty op mystic. Hoping theyre chances are pretty good to take back con control. What is happening on capitol hill . This could be the calm before the storm. We see the future and it aint pretty. Florida representative and republican Ileana Ross Slayton is out shes going to retire and shes not mincing words. This Political Climate right now is about as bad as it could be for gop members in moderate district. Combative california rearranging the flag outside his office but soon hell be packing his things as well. Point to go a growing economy. So its a good time to go out on top. Is it that . Or does it have more to do with democratic pros specs in this years mid term elections . The gop majority in the senate is just one seat. And even the large prep can majority in the house could be in peril with at least 29 republicans now leaving making it tougher to hang on to seats without an incumbent. The competition makes even people better. House Majority Leader Kevin Mccarthy sees the Glass Half Full but much may hinge on President Trump and his approval rating. The president s numbers are toxic and the democrats are in wave criteria in terms of the polling if you look at the generic ballot advance something republicans think they can turn those numbers around he is special physical theyre able to score more legislative wins this year. Janice dean is taking a stand. Coming up later, foxs weather machine will join us liveo sent to a viewer who tried to body shame her. First though should metro riders get a refund if your train or your bus is running late . Whats that you say, yes, collectively. Yes. Fox5s Melanie Alnwick will join us live with the details on the plan. You wont want to miss it. Thats coming up. Z2kqoz z16fz y2kqoy y16fy i think a lot of people will be interest width this story. Metro Board Members will take action on plan to offer refunds if your trip on metro or the bus takes too long. All ears on this one. Many riders sometimes find themselves late for work because of no fault of their own metro has those issues. Well now the Transit Companies wants to help ease those set backs. Fox5s mel know alnwick live at the vienna metro station with the details we want to hear about. Good morning, mel. Reporter good morning, guys. Yeah, metro is so confident in its ability to deliver on time performance during rush hour that it says it is willing to offer a financial money back guarantee the key to all of that would be registered smart trip guard. Now heres how the program is going to work. Its called the Customer Confidence program. Rush hour trips that are delayed by 15 minutes or more would be eligible and you have to register your smart trip card because that is how it will be able to track your trip and whetherha the refunds also important with that smart trip card because they would be automatic. No forms, no action required by the customer you will getter email notifying you that youre eligible for the credit and then the credit would appear on your smart trip card within five days. Metro bus customers eligible for the refunds but there will be some kind of a web form set up for them. Now after the safetrack progra, new rail cars and improved schedule link metro says that today nine out of ten weekday trains arrive on time. Still ridership is down. People lack confidence and that means less revenue. But will this new plan help keep current riders win back dissatisfied customers we put the question to riders on twitter it is clear they are still a skeptical bunch. Heres a couple of the tweets we got. One, oh, please, next. Well, its better than nothing. From sheila. We had t from queens who said, theyll never actually make this policy, and time that is the biggest lie. More like nine and tip late. Metro is the worst and most unreliable means of transportation. Again, clear theres a lot of sceptic out there. Many think this is not nothing more than a pr and marketing ploy, but there is real money behind this. Also exceptions, too. So were talking about like major weather events, regional emergencies, Major Construction projects, those dont count for the refunds. The program is only going to last for one year. Its going to cost three and a half million dollars. But metro thinks its worth the money to try to make people feel confident in the system. As for today, it is going up for a vote in committee. If it gets through the committee, then that vote would go on to the full board and would probably be voted on at the end of the month if its passed it probably start sometime in february. Live at vienna Melanie Alnwick fox5 local news. Mel thanks very. They might be on to something. Theyre caring that much about Customer Service put their money where their mouth is maybe it makes difference. If they do they have to pay somebody. You cant make an excuse every time. We had construction or whatever it was. Act of god every time. Why a year if youre serious about this to see how it goes, but if im a customer then im like, okay i only got a year youll let me know how it goes much its just a gimmick to me. Which a lot of people from those tweets seem to think. If you want me to come back give me little bit more than of year. You of financial fiscal responsibility. Yeah. If its a gimmick that pays you its a good gimmick. A year is better than nothing. If its a gimmick its a trick. It may be but if they give you money theyll youll be happy. The chance of them taking it away would probably be pretty small. Theyre trying. I say better than nothing. Okay. All right. Ill go with that. 9 17 is the time right now.
