'm hn berman was sa sidner this is in a central >> all right. >> right. new this morning, wholesale prices rose again last month. that is noat the highest level since april of 2023. cnn'paula newton joining me now from ottawa are we've got our left signs as well, joining us from the white house. paula, i want to start with you because he's numbers just came in. this is definitely not what anyone wants to hear about inflation. we've already seen it rising. again, it's stubborn yeah, it is stubborn and yet we can all take a little bit of a chill pill, take a breather through these numbers. and here's why it came in a little bit lower than estimates i want you to
6:04 am
look at the month over month and the year over year. so we're at 0.2%. that was actually a little bit lower than expected. and here's an important number, right? 2.1% year over year, you are not wrong, sarah, there is a lot of concern that if this is what our accompanies are paying for products and they continue to show a bit of an upward trend. it means sooner or later they will likely be passing a lot of those costs on the us. what i want you to look at now though, is the 12 month trend on that producer price index. and you can see just at the end there as we get into early spring that it is ticking up and that is the trend line that everyone is worried about. as i said, markets right now, not really reacting too much. this is pretty flat that though was on the heels, sara, you remember of that hot inflation number, right? which was has everyone worried and if you have a look at the inflation trend in america right now, this is what's worrying everyone. we all remember the battle days, the last couple of years when you go to the grocery store or anywhere really, and you look at the price and you honestly
6:05 am
could not believe the inflation, the federal reserve seems to have things under control. the economy is strong, but there are still something to worry about and the real reason is the fact that there might be an upward trend sarah, the federal reserve wants this to be down to 2%. that's something everyone can deal with. 2% inflation year over year, many doubt now whether or not the fed could actually get to that by the end of this year. but there's one other important chart i want you to look at, and that is inflation worth verse wages. >> you >> can see that americans are doing really well, right? in terms of actually their wages, not just keeping up with inflation, but all well, so perhaps surpassing it. i know it doesn't feel that way and the thing that worries everyone is that inflation will then begin to really bite into the wages into those hard earned wage increases that everyone's been fighting for. i will say this is just once the data set, one set of numbers the federal reserve in terms of looking at interest rates will be looking
6:06 am
at this carefully everyone wants those interest rates to come down, including of course, the white house, sarah. >> all right. pauline newton. thank you so much for that. and speaking of the white house we are going to go to arlette saenz. what would is president biden thinking about all this and has he has he said anything? thing about seeing whilthe rest of the economy has been booming forof a bett word >> yes, era. we have heard president biden ov the past few months reay tried to highlight some of the bright spots inhe enomy, but the economy and particly rea inflation,ave rely been one of the most stubborn polical issues for president biden heading into november's election yesterday on the hes of that consum price index report, which found prices rose in the month of march, the presidt in atatement acknowledged that there is still more work that hnes to do in order to lower costs foamerican again, d yesterin a rose garden press confence, the presid has defended his handlinof inflation, pointing to the overall downward trend. ke a
6:07 am
listen whave dmaticay reduced flatiofrom 9%. to close to%. we're gonna tuation whe we're better tuate we were, we ok office where we inflation was and we have plan to deal with it. whereas the opposition my opposition talks about two things. i just want to cut taxes for the wealy and raised taxesn other pele. and so i thinkhere, they have no plan our plans one i think is still sustainable >> now out on the road, president biden has d to point to some of those positiv inditors over the past few months. thfa tha unemment idown, the fact that wages are rising, and that wering. but even as he's trying to highlight the pove aspects oe economy, what americans are feg cplety fferent. if you take a look tionolls fm marquett cent it found te marity of
6:08 am
ters believed that the economy is either not i'm so good or poor. and then when you stack up president biden against fo president dald trump, more beeved tt trump is betr on economic issues, th psidentiden. now we've seen president biden in his ste of the union address and the way weeks that followed really try to hone in on their efforts to cut down costs fo ameranonhinglike prescription drug prices housing most recently on udent ans when he was t in wisconsin this week. but rely one of the challenges r president biden will be trying to nvince americans that hisnomic policies are payingff for them at time, whet views about the onomy number say one thing. the feelings of american something different. arlette saenz. thank you so mu for your reporting. jaw. willis, now, >> democratic strategist, senior vice president and co-founder of third way, matt bennt and cnn polical commtator d republican strategy a stewart. now we just came in lower than es expected. futures, which j lookt are up. the market seemto like this. this is one
6:09 am
of the fst bits of decent inflation newsthere's been in some time,e that as it may white house six months ago was hoping they'd be able to run on inflation continues to go down. i'm not so sure they feel that way now that inflation seems to have sort of stagnated here, how much of a problem is that even though, as i said, the markets happier with what's happening right now look, it's not great. we saw the numbers on biden's handling of the economy. people are not happy about it, but i think it's important to emphasize a couple of things. first of all people don't vote on macroeconomic data. >> if they did >> by me doing a lot better th he isow, because the rest of the economy is solute, we booming unemployment is at a stork lows. the stock market is dog great growth is incredibly high and all of that is means we have a white hot economy and that's driving inflation. so i don't think people are voting on that. what they're voting on is how they
6:10 am
feel and the question is, with wages outpacing inflation, will they feel a little bit better in the coming months? and i think they probably will, but the other thing that's important is elections are not referendum on the president. the election is going to be a choice between president biden and donald trump. and the question is, will voters think that trump's plans for the economy, which are completely vague and skewed towards the wealthy, help them or not. >> i think it's fair to say that democrats hope it is a choice election, not a referendum election. that's one of those things we learn every four years. is it about choice or is it? about a referendum? >> alice, i >> will say this and all the campaigns you've worked on if you had unemployment consistently below 4% at record lows, how frustrated would you be? that you still can't get people behind you on the economy >> extremely frustrated. but john, the reality is this is not a messaging problem. this is a perception problem. and while some barometers of the
6:11 am
economic picture are bright overall, the spending, the wages, and how much things cost that the gas pump in the grocery store are hurtful to american people and look, scranton joe, who's out there for hardworking americans is trying to tell them things are way. and the biggest people at that are feeling the brunt of these latest economic reports e those people o there working hard every day, working hot report that came out s yeerday is pouri cold water which many people were ut, expecting whether to buy a car or to purchase a home in the next few months. and if he's not sweating it out over this, i think it's a prm fohi and ok what we're seeing in whe aftea poll these economic numbers and we're seeing now a trend with pool for economic numbers overall and the perception of them. voters across this country feel as though the economy has poor. they don't trust biden in terms of handling inflation or the economy. they think that
6:12 am
theisituatioin le is worse off than it was when he took office and the biggest cross tab r many voters is e fact ty do tst donald trump more on the economy, inflatiothan they do biden. anthat's going to be a real liability for bidewhen you see 54% of voters in many polls say they trust trump to handle the economy bett than biden 27%. and well knothat the pockbook issueare major motivato for vers specifically independent voters who are not aligned right or left. but the pocketbook issues will drive those independent voters >> understood. i do want to make sure people understand that the numbers that just came out moments ago, the producer price index showed a much smaller gain than economists had predicted. so again, the market is actually like the inflation news that's out today different than yesterday. but just so people are current on what is just happening, right now. again, what you're reading on the screen there? yes, that's true, but it's lower than was anticipated. so this is actually considered a good news inflation day
6:13 am
relatively speaking, madisyn, a heck of a week on the issue of abortion on monday, donald trump came out and said he believes it's an issue that should be left up to the state's tuesday, the arizona supreme court issues a ruling and says, okay, right. we'll go back to 18, 64 a near-total ban on abortion with nearly no exceptions in then wednesday in arizona, the state legislature, despite efforts are democrats and some republicans in both chambers republicans, they're blocked votes to basically modernize the 18, 64 law and get rid of that law that's sort of back on the books for one day. follow the bouncing ball here. it doesn't seem that republicans in arizona, want to get to where some national republican kids would like to be >> that is for sure. and this is an issue that is unquestionably good for democrats and arizona is a vitally important state. it as a presidential swing state now, at least it wasn't 2020 when biden won it very narrowly
6:14 am
it's gonna be hotly contested. there's a hugely important senate race going on there where the republican kari lake has been all over the place on this issue. she endorsed the 18 60 something bill and then situ wasn't for it and so i think what you're going to see is democrats using the arizona law nationally because it is a very good marker for people. trump says he wants the states to decide, well, this is how the states are going to decide if he's president and that is vitally important not only to women, but also to a lot of men who think that this is just a terrible way of handling what was for 50 plus years of constitutional right at that, alice stewart quick to see both you. thank you both so much. sarah. all right. coming up, house speaker >> mike johnson, fighting to keep the job. he got barely leave six months ago. could a meeting with donald trump help him knocked down a republican revolt? >> and >> the anti-defamation league is giving some of the nation's most prestige he just universities and f, for

6:21 am
speaker johnson is growing optimistic that they could go back to the house rules committee today to try to find a way forward and satisfy republicans who voted against that rule yesterday again that was just just a procedural vote to put this bill on the floor to have a series of amendment votes. and then have a vote on the final legislation. typically in the pass, those prm r leaders and t ot a during the tenure of john painter, pryan, na pelosi, they nevost single those res ves on the floor.ometim if thin looked like they werre, if things look like they were close, a leader might pull it the bill before it came to the for but obviously what we've seen over the course of the last several months is seven of those procedural votes going down in flames. so leadership hoping they can go back to the house rules committee today, listen to some of those members, make some changes in the way that they are structuring this process to try
6:22 am
to assuage the concerns that those hardliners have. now, there is a little skepticism coming from some members, however, that i've talked to you, given the fact that there's such a deep divide i'd on this issue, leadership tried to pass this bill back in december. they struggled and said that they would just pass a temporary extension. that's where we are now. that temporary extension expiring on april 19th. meanwhile, you have republicans just exasperated by the level of chaos they're sitting on the floor here there's one of them >> troy. >> all you have to do this, say we've got seven more months to the presidentially >> let's trying to complete pardon the dam place down a set. bernie, please now, let's just get donald trump. that's it. that's what we should fall. that's my police were dysfunction we are it's come someone who bes i'm going to make your bite uin theottle a little bit. november. but my focus is donald j. trump out because we can't nobody can manage his conference the lord

morning report card for dozens of the nation's top universities about how they are dealing with >> antisemitism on campus. this is the first time the anti-defamation league has released these grades and more than a dozen schools, including harvard and mit received failing grades only two schools got aids, at a's, i should say with this. now the ceo and national director of the adl, jonathan ghraieb. jonathan great to see you this morning. why did the l do this? why the report card >> well, thank you for having me, john adl has been fighting anti-semitism and hate for over 100 years, but we've seen as tsunami of anti-semitism just a tidal wave of anti-jewish hate in recent years, and especially since ten, seven. so we felt the need based on what we were hearing from parents and students to do an empirical assessment of what is happening on our college campuses were so much of this it seems to be centered. so our team of phds, they looked at the data, they
6:30 am
did independent research, they engage with experts and we develop this report card, john, which is a first of its kind, and empirical objective evaluation of how these leading colleges and institutions indeed are handling this rise of hate on their campuses. >> so you're talking about the rise of hate on campuses and you mentioned that this is particularly prevalent since october 7, especially recently, there have been protests over how israel is conducting the war war in gaza. there were protests and a lot of the schools that are on that list that received a failing grades from you in the eyes of the adl how can a university allow for protests against israeli policies without having their grade reduce? >> oh, it's quite easy. i mean, let's be clear. there's nothing anti-symmetric about protesting israel policies there's nothing anti-symmetric about questioning the government of israel, but there
6:31 am
is something highly toxic an absolutely bigoted when you're idf prejudice is to harass jewish students at a hilal when your idea of protest is again, to interrupt students learning in a classroom or to defile a religious observance or to tear the mazola off. the doors posts of jewish students. so right, we're looking here, john, at things like administrative actions taken to deal with students who do these things, were looking at how jewish students are protected and jewish life on campus. so this is much more dimensional than any single thing. but your politics can never be a pretext for again intimidation harassment, and hate. and unfortunately, as you pointed out, john at ivy league schools at top research institutions like stanford, mit, caltech. that's exactly what we're seeing. and it's got to stop i did want to ask you because donald trump keeps on playing
6:32 am
to what for centuries it has been an anti-semitic trope about >> dual loyalty most >> recently, he just said, any jewish person that vote both for democratic votes for biden should have their head examined so how do you feel about donald trump essentially telling jewish people how to be jewish >> yeah it's really sad when political candidates feel the need to engage in these anti-semitic tropes and fictions whether it's donald trump implying dual loyalty or its candidates like are congresswoman to implying the blood libel all of it is bad as jews, we know what this means and it's a reminder that your views on israel or your views on gaza don't somehow exempt you from antisemitism we should ask all candidates from the right and the left to treat us like americans and know the difference between right and wrong. it's that simple, john,
6:33 am
i wish the candidates and the elected officials would remember that once and for all, jonathan green, black great to have you on this morning. thank you very much. >> all right. we're getting our first look at how markets are reacting to new data on inflation, wholesale prices rose 2.1% over the past 12 months. and these fresh data points come one day after consumer prices rose more than expectancy in an economics and political commentator, catherine rahm pell joins us now the wholesale numbers, not as bad as predicted, but those coupled with the inflation numbers, what does that tell you about the economy that in many other ways is doing well? >> right? on paper, the economy looks great on most metrics, whether we're talking about job growth, gdp growth investment, and so on. the one stick, lng fact though, the one thorn in our side obviously is inflation, which has been very
6:34 am
hard or to vanquish it's come down quite a lot since its peak. but getting it all the way back down to the fed's preferred target has proven quite difficult. and after those sizzling numbers yesterday from the consumer price index, market participants started to discount the idea that the fed would cut rates quite as much as had been expected, because usually the fed cuts rates when the economy needs a little bit more shushing needs a little more stimulus when there's less of a risk of the economy overheating and inflation sticking around given that we've had higher than expected inflation numbers, at least by some metrics. again, not today's numbers >> that looks a little bit less likely. and if you can see that in the markets so far, you're saying that these numbers could really influence the federal reserve to say, you know what we're going to hold off on cutting interest rates as many times as people thought they would. i do want to ask you about what these numbers mean politically, particularly to
6:35 am
the biden administration in power now and has been touting this great economy. but many of the voters say they don't feel it >> it's a really difficult situation to be fair that the biden administration is in because people still are feeling the pain of those price hikes that we saw before, even if inflation has come down quite a lot again, not completely vanquished. things look better than they had. there was already quite a lot of price growth to date. that's been built in. and even though americans wages overall have lately been outpacing inflation that still doesn't mean that americans feel great about their finances. they might think that they deserved those wage hikes, whereas the inflation is something that happened to them. let's say, americans not feeling great about their own finances. again, biden has a lot to legitimately tout but he risks looking tone-deaf if he says, hey everything's great, why
6:36 am
are you complaining? and i think he's trying to find the right balance of bragging about some but the good numbers while still acknowledging some of the lingering pain or frustration that american consumers have because of those paths that those past price increases. >> yeah, some of that lingering pain. all you have to do is look at just how high the credit card debt is among americans right now, some of the highest ever we're thank you so much, calvin rental. appreciate you. all right. ahead. the biden administration is taking new steps to regulate gun sales. what they're doing to try to close the so-called called gun show loophole. and the family of a deceased inmate suing the alabama corrections department claiming they stole their loved ones organs was wet amd i worry i'm not only losing my sight time to enjoy it and now i can open up my

plan from unitedhealthcare. smart. now really smart leader how solomon in new york >> cnn >> knew this morning the largest expansion of >> background checks for gun purchases in decades in this country, the white house is moving to close what's known as the gun show loophole under this new rule, if someone sells firearms predominantly to make a profit at a gun show or online, they will have to do background checks on potential buyers that has not been the case until this new rule takes effect in 30 days, joining us now is someone who has been fighting for tougher gun laws since her six-year-old son, dylan was killed at sandy hook elementary, nicole hotly is a co fan or and ceo of sandy hook promise. thank you so much for joining us this morning. first of all, you live with the loss every day of your son who you called your beautiful butterfly, dylan in that horrific sandy hook elementary shooting. what, what does this
6:42 am
new rule mean to you and your family >> listen, this is a huge victory. we have been advocating for and championing for expanded background checks since the sandy hook tragedy. and when we fail so miserably with the senate in 2013 it was a moment of utter despair in terms of not being able to even do something as simple as that. so the fact that this is now happening, it's not the full expanded background check, but it's certainly closing a significant loophole. it's going to save lives that is a big deal because that means that there will be more families who will not be going through what i experienced every day. >> specifically, what kind of difference do you expect this to make in the idea that gun violence kills children and adolescents more than any other single thing >> isn't that just heartbreaking that fact on its own that it is the gun violence is the number one killer of children. najah, age of 19 three years running now what
6:43 am
this means is that there's going to be thousands of unlicensed dealers who can no longer just sell guns to anyone without doing a background check. so that could be a felon, that could be a domestic abuser, that could be a child such as we saw 25 years ago with columbine and how they acquired their guns now, if you aren't in the business of selling firearms whether that's a gun shows in your backyard, at a car boot sale or online, and you are not a federally licensed dealer, you will have to become a licensed dealer and conduct background checks or face the penalty. so what that means is trafficking is going to be reduced. that is the number one way of guns getting into the trafficking circle is through unlicensed dealers. so it's going to really close that down. it's not going to stop every illegal sale, but it will curb thousands and make a difference. >> in the case of the sandy hook shooter. he used his mother's guns that she legally obtained at a gun store. this new rule would of course not have prevented that horrific
6:44 am
massacre her out. your son school, but do you think there's any version or a law that could have stopped the tragedy that you experienced and 26 others >> well, in terms of what could have stopped sandy hook, a lot of that was about missed or misunderstood or ignored signs that the shooter gave off plus non is mother did not practice safe storage. they were his mother's guns, but the gun safe was in his room and it was not locked. so he had open access to those firearms. so there's a lot in terms of mental health support and funding, a lot in terms of secure storage, background checks would not have stopped sandy hook, but would have stopped columbine would've stopped what happened in odesa, texas. it would have stopped so many other shootings and individual shootings that happened across our state where felons or domestic abusers can get their hands on guns and commit acts of violence. it couldn't have helped my family, but it will help thousands more. and that's
6:45 am
worth advocates getting four and fighting for. >> i want to ask you about something we just had a conversation about republicans in some states think arming teachers is the key to preventing these school student shootings. we just spoke to republican state senator who sponsored a bill to allow teachers to carry firearms in schools and tennessee, the bill has passed the state senate and it's headed to the house i wanted to let you listen to what he said >> this was designed to bring about a line of defense. if in fact someone trying to breach any kind of security doors and enter into a school and so i'm looking more at it as a hell for those rules schools. and if metro areas, urban suburban areas don't want to implement this top policy, that's fine. it's totally permissive and it also gives local control as to how that they would implement this >> so we're saying the bill would be up to, for example, the school board, but that arming teachers would be
6:46 am
allowed. what? you think about this idea of arming teachers for school safety >> well, first of all, i'm very glad that they're not mandating it because i have yet to meet a teacher who's besides that they want to be armed in their classroom. and i think that legislators need to listen to what teachers want and what students want in terms of safety and their schools before they create these laws i am not for arming teachers mainly because there is no evidence-based that it creates a safer school at all where there are clear and consistent evidence basis is in upstream violence prevention, knowing the signs threat assessment teams that is more of a deterrent rather than asking our teachers to be that last line offense, teachers have the responsibility for ensuring community within a school supporting our students, their academic and their, and their social skills that's critical, not arming them, especially the idea of having a gun in a classroom terrifies me as a parent because what if someone
6:47 am
else accesses that gun? what if the teacher is not adequately trained? what if the teacher in a moment of when they should be looking after the students they have to have the responsibility of potentially shooting their own student or accidentally shooting their own student it's just not a great idea security, armed des arose who are properly trained. that is a different story. arming teachers is not something i can support the cole hocl. a. thank you for taking the time this morning. i really appreciate you talking about this incredibly important issue >> thank you. >> john are the largest power plant in the kyiv region destroyed and a russian missile attack. and the new cnn original series space shuttle columbia the final flight at air sundays at 9:00 p.m. here on cnn, this is a preview >> no further communications with the spacecraft bout 8:00 a.m. central time. hang out. let's listen it into no further tracking data from the spacecraft was gained from cbn

6:55 am
>> well, we're getting some clarity on this story. john, and any width of scandal is moving away from shohei ohtani. this is a bizarre story about three or four weeks ago federal investigators looking into a bookmaker in orange county, california, noticed ohtani's name on money transfer first. now, ohtani's interpreter came out and said that ohtani had lent him the interpreter money to pay off his gambling debts. shohei ohtani's people came out and said, no way this money was stolen. so now the new york times as saying that ippei mizuhara, the interpreter, is in. negotiations to plead guilty to some of the charges relating to this massive theft as ohtani's people called it >> they >> were more than just your acquaintances these two had worked together for a long time. they were ippei mizuhara was the interpreter, friend,
6:56 am
and confidant of shohei ohtani. so it was a pretty big deal and the one good thing is that a thani seems to not really have been impacted too much by this cloud. he, of course is a two-way player, is only hitting this year because of an injury, but he has been playing very, very well four for the dodgers he has hit five straight multi hit games. so as i say, with this reporting from the new york times, it seems me suspicion is moving away from ohtani and he is just meanwhile, been getting on with what he does best i think that is in an important development as you say, moving away from ohtani, nick, watt, lifelong baseball fan. thank you so much for being with us this morning. >> i would like to add cricket as well. i don't know if you've ever seen this guy when it comes to cricket get man. he the man who isn't may i know
