This Morning from CBS News, Sept. 22, 2016
No peace yet
Charlotte, North Carolina is under a state of emergency after a second night of violence over the police killing of a black man. Demonstrators flooded downtown Charlotte last night, damaging property, blocking a highway and attacking members of the media. One person was shot, but apparently not by police.
Bombing investigation
The wife of accused New York and New Jersey bomber Ahmad Rahami is reportedly in the United States. Asia Bibi Rahami apparently flew into New York last night from Dubai. New information, meanwhile, suggests Rahami wasn’t influenced by just one group.
Pricey proposals
Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump have been rolling out their proposals to address everything from tax plans to Pentagon budgets to education initiatives. Taken in their entirety, both candidates’ plans would increase America’s debt, but according to a nonpartisan budget monitoring group, one of the nominees’ proposals would hit the government’s coffers a whopping five-times harder than the other’s.
Nominees on immigration
Hillary Clinton’s approach to immigration throughout the campaign has been to blast Donald Trump’s proposals and advocate for immigration reform with a pathway to citizenship, among other things. As part of our look at where the nominees stand on the major issues facing the country, today we examine the policy proposals on the hot-button issue from both Clinton and Trump.
EpiPen hearing
The CEO of the pharmaceutical company that makes the life-saving EpiPen strongly has defended the product’s nearly-500 percent price hike on Capitol Hill, testifying under oath. We review documents the company turned over to lawmakers that show how much it expected to earn selling the drug this year.
Designer restoration
Tourists touring Rome may see spectacular monuments, but the cash-strapped Italian capital sees spectacular expenditures it simply can’t afford. Now, Rome has drawn up a “wish list” of monuments it wants to see fixed -- in part to encourage private funding to help foot the whopping half-billion-dollar bill.
Back to work
Like it or not, working longer is becoming the go-to retirement plan for millions of older Americans. But how much of this work consists of high-quality jobs, and what exactly are retirees looking for in post-career employment?
