Several states running low on gas

Some states in the southeastern U.S. are running dangerously low on gas following last week's cyberattack on Colonial Pipeline. AAA says it will take a few more days before fuel is flowing normally. This comes as President Biden signed a cybersecurity executive order on Thursday to help prevent similar hacks from happening in the future. Tia Mitchell, a Washington correspondent for the Atlanta Journal-Constitution, joined CBSN's Lana Zak to discuss.

Biden urges calm following pipeline shutdown

President Biden urged Americans on Thursday not to panic in the wake of the Colonial Pipeline cyberattack, which caused the company to temporarily shut down the nation's largest fuel pipeline. "Do not get more gas than you need in the next few days," he said. "As I said, we expect the situation to begin to improve by the weekend and into early next week, and gasoline supply is getting back online, and panic buying will only slow the process."
