you're watching cnn newsroom and i'm rosemary church. >> ahead. >> the blood of black america is on your hands, stand up and do something. >> demand for employees reform in the u.s. following outrage over the harrowing video we saw of police beating tyre nichols to death. why many say change begins in washington. we'll bring you the latest's the debate over the u.s. debt ceiling and how the outcome will be felt well beyond the united states and the u.s. secretary of state arrives in the middle east amid rising tensions between israelis and palestinians. ♪. ♪. ♪. live from cnn center. this is cnn newsroom. with rosemary church. >> and we begin this hour with the beating death of tyre nichols and efforts to prevent police brutality in the future. on sunday, the nichols family attorney told cnn he hopes this will become a water shed moment
12:02 am
in the push for criminal justice reforms. hours after video was made public showing nichols ruthless beating at the hands of memphis police, officials shutdown the specialized scorpion unit, all five former officers charged in nichols's death were members of that unit. a local district attorney and the nichols family attorney discussed the charges and release of the video. >> this video illustrates that it's this culture that says it doesn't matter whether the police officers are black, hispanic or white, that it is somehow allowed for you to trample on the constitutional rights of certain citizens from certain ethnicities and certain communities. >> and we have to have a larger conversation about this. >> we now that longer the video was delayed the more unrest and suspicion about the process there would be so the video needed to be released soon but
12:03 am
at the same time, we also knew that releasing the video without an announcement of charges could itself be provoketive and incendiary, the best solution was to expedite the investigation and charges so that the charges could come first and then the release of the video. and i think that proved to have been a fruitful sequence of events, because as we were sewing, there has been demonstrations there has been reaction to the video, which is certainly shocking. but they've been peaceful. >> and in washington, there are growing calls to return to the issue of police reform and the george floyd justice in policing act. cnn white house correspondent has more. >> reporter: the white house and lawmakers on capitol hill are certainly facing renewed pressure when it comes to police reform. president biden has said he wants to see meaningful reform
12:04 am
passed but it's unclear what exactly that would entail in the current environment. democrats tried to push through the george floyd justice and policing act back in 2021, that would have included creating a registry for employees misconduct it also would have banned chokeholds and put restrictions on no knock warrants, now, that passed the house, it did not pass the senate. but senator cory booker a democrat was engaged in bipartisan talks with senator tim scott, a republican of south carolina. but those talks did eventually fall apart back in 2021, one of the sticking points was the issue of qualified immunity which offers immunity for police officers that prevents them being sued in civil court. senator dick der man a top democrat want to see booker and scott sit down together again to try to hammer out details regarding police reform, take a listen what he had to say ythis is a call for all of us to be honest about the situation, i'm
12:05 am
chairman of the senate judiciary committee, we do many pieces of legislation, i think of the police reform package that senator booker was working on with senator scott had many elements in it that are important, banning chokeholds, dealing with no warrant searches, dealing with accreditation of police departments, it's necessary that we do all of these things, but not sufficient. >> senator i want to. >> have a conversation >> one big question is whether there will be the appetite for police reform up on capitol hill especially as republicans now control the house to same time, members of the congressional black caucus are asking to meet with president biden this week to talk about police reform and we're also learning just moments ago that the head of the congressional black caucus congressman steven horse ford invited the family of tyre nichols to be his guests at the state of the union and he said they had accepted. so that certainly will be quite the moment if they in fact attend the state of the union on
12:06 am
february 7th. at this moment, the white house and according to is facing so much pressure the question is there there be an appetite to act and what exactly any type of legislation regarding police reform could pass the currently divided congress. cnn traveling with the president in wilmington, delaware. the president under the tennessee chapter of the naacp is also demanding congressional action during a fiery news conference in memos sunday she blasted the lack of progress and called for change. >> we come to call to action congress boy failing to craft and pass bills to stop police brutality you're writing another man's bitch chair, the blood of black america is on your hand. >> earlier i spoke with joe
12:07 am
estad a former richmond police officer and of police brutality matters, i asked him what could be done to make these incidents stop. >> historically, culturally, law enforcement the way they police is through force and intimidation. we need to change that mindset and because officers are allowed to do that historically in the police department hasn't held them accountable, they are able to get away with that, guys up after they run it's common throughout the centuries, hands down that definitely needs to change, we need a task force for the doj that's combined with federal and state legislation that will investigate all police shootings and police use of force complaints. you can't have the police department investigating itself. that's too much of a conflict. i work with guys who transfer into internal affairs, now these guys are assigned to actually investigate my misconduct. it just shouldn't happen.
12:08 am
>> and that was former police officer joe ested speaking to me earlier. the nba memphis grizzlies held a moment of silence to honor tyre nichols before they played the indiana pacers on sunday. it was the grizzly's first home game since video of nichols's beating was released. >> the memphis grizzly action to please join us in a moment of silence to remember the life of tyre nichols, a skate border, photography and fellow memphisian we share in the pain felt throughout the community and have faith in the city and power to heal. our heart felt sorrow and dope sympathies are with the nichols family and his friends during them ties. >> a gofundme campaign started in tyre nichols's memory raised more than $1 million in just to days.
12:09 am
the donations will cover time off for nichols parents as well as their mental health services. they also want to build a memorial skate park in tyre nichols's honor >> u.s. president joe biden and house speaker kevin mccarthy will discuss the debt ceiling when the two sit down for talks on wednesday. a white house spokesperson said mr. biden will ask mccarthy if he intends to meet his quote constitutional obligation to prevent a national default. the white house previously said raising the debt ceiling is not a negotiation but an obligation to avoid economic chaos, in the senate, two dozen did republicans say they won't back increase without major spending cuts, here's what mccarthy is looking for. >> i want to find a reasonable and responsible way that we can lift the debt ceiling would take control of this run away spending. if you look at the last four
12:10 am
years, the democrats have increased spending by 30%. 400 billion dollars. we're at 120% of gdp we haven't been in this place to debt since world war ii, we can't continue down this path, i don't think there's anyone in america who doesn't agree there's woeful washington spend, we can eliminate i want to sit down together, work out an agreement so we can move forward to put us on a path to balance, at the same time, not put any of our debt in jeopardy at the same time. >> jeff stein is a washington post white house economics reporter, he joins me now from new york. great to have you with us. >> thanks so much for having me. >> so as the white house braces for a tough fight ahead over raising the debt limit. house speaker kevin mccarthy and president joe biden prepare to meet wednesday to discuss the issue. mr. biden saying raising the debt limit is an obligation, not a negotiation, mccarthy
12:11 am
disagreeing on that, but at the same time, republican leader are trying to educate gop members who don't seem to understand how the debt limit works. and what the ramifications will be if they fail to raise it. what are you learning about this effort to educate these members? >> there's an interesting tension now in the republican party where some members really seem to think that we can go over this cliff and fail to pay our payment obligations for the first time in the nation's history and that that will be manageable, and this has different tenors and flavors but the upshot is that this is an opportunity for the republicans that many of them see to push for major concessions on spending and spending cuts in the biden administration because they do not fear really the consequences of default. i would say most republicans -- that's probably a minority, view but enough of a view to have a big swing in the caucus and
12:12 am
there's another that says we can try to use this opportunity to negotiate for concessions but be realistic a massive freak-out in the market could have negative political consequences as well as economic ones for republican party >> when biden and mccarthy do meet on wednesday, how do they move forward on preventing this country from defaulting. >> i covered a bunch of debt limit fights, this is the one that is the least create path out of administration understandably does not want to reward republicans for taking the u.s. economy hostage as they would say for, you know, over the debt limit but republicans are in on a bind, kevin mccarthy can't preserve his speaker ship and give concessions and simultaneously, conservatives will not fall for a token or symbol that mccarthy could throw to get them to buy into a debt
12:13 am
ceiling deal, i have a hard time seeing how this gets resolved and that's obviously quite scary for markets and the other economy >> what will happen if congress fails to do its job and prevent a debt default? what's at stake >> u.s. treasurey, the debt the government issues to pay its balance are not just important for function of the u.s. government because we need to raise money to make balance payments between what we bring in and spend, it's also u.s. treasury debt are the benchmark the foundation of the global financial system almost every country around the world bases its trades and its financial markets on the value of the u.s. dollar and we never really seen the kind of ripple effect that economists fear if that goes haywire with the sudden change in what the u.s. trustworthiness for our credit and that could
12:14 am
throw the treasury markets billions of which traded every day completely out of sink more long-term looking at the u.s. lose what's called dollars, which makes it easy for us to borrow money because people seek out u.s. treasuries and bonds that u.s. dollars regard among the safest assets in the world, if we question that, to our political malfeasance and incompetence jeopardize that dollar dominance, we could really permanently damage our ability to lend cheaply increase our borrowing cost and could trigger cuts to vital government services and provisions that americans depend and rely on, these topics can feel disconnected to people but there's a potential tangible impact if we don't get this result. >> representative patrick mcelhenney the chairman of house financial services committee
12:15 am
warned republicans to be reasonable in their demands for concessions what would be considered reasonable? >> i heard from republican sources they're looking at something that either the biden administration doesn't want to do but would be ok with maybe increasing border security or ending the sort of covid emergency measures or some sort of deal where the white house agrees to set up a committee that doesn't have real power but can issue recommendations on that the white house would then maybe take a political hit from. i don't see republicans, republicans i've talked to said they're not going to go along with that, really, as i said really hard to see what negotiations could be productive here, mchenry is interesting because he's head of financial services he has tries to wall street, among republicans left business friendly and at odds with this maga fire breathing
12:16 am
wing that is saying we need to roughen up the debt limit. there are many republican whose retain close ties to big business that are various rain event sense about going down this path and mchenry speaks for them. >> great to get your analysis, appreciate it. >> thanks so much for having me. >> the u.s. justice department says it's trying to make lawmakers demands for more information on classified documents found at properties associated with donald trump and president joe biden, but the doj adds that it will try to do so without harming ongoing investigations into both matters, house democrat adam schiff said lawmakers should at least get briefings on the probes. >> certainly be briefed on documents, and this was the point i made after the mar-a-lago discoveries, it was a point i reiterated after it was discovered that president biden also had classified documents both the department and the congress need to be careful that what we do in handling this
12:17 am
doesn't interfere with any investigation that the justice department is conducting. >> to attorney general merrick garland believes the doj should withhold the documents from lawmakers until the special counsel handling each case give authorization. in the united states, over 25 million people are under winter weather alerts today, including more than 15 million under windchill warnings, winter weather alerts are still in effect for parts of wyoming, utah, colorado and nevada with the possibility of significant icing from central texas to central illinois. the national weather service in fort worth texas is asking people to avoid travel on tuesday, they say this system could produce freezing rainy and sleet for a prolonged period. and still to come, the u.s. secretary of state is expected to urge calm when he visits israel and the west bank this week. details of the deadly violence
