record high gas prices, but will it work? plus, why more americans are giving up their pets these days. and later a real balancing act. the easy test you can take that could predict how long you'll live. good wednesday morning, everyone. we begin with congress one step closer to passing the most significant gun safety legislation in decades. >> after weeks of bipartisan talks, senators have worked out details of the bill, and they're pushing for final passage by the end of the week. >> many democrats were hoping for more sweeping change but some republicans say the bill goes too far. here's abc's andrea fujii. >> reporter: this morning, for the first time in nearly 30 years, congress announcing a deal on gun safety. >> this is a breakthrough, and, more importantly, it's a bipartisan breakthrough.

>> reporter: the agreement coming after a group of 20 senators, 10 from both parties, spent a week behind closed doors. the bill includes enhanced background checks for gun buyers under the age of 21. it closes loopholes to prevent people convicted of domestic violence from owning guns, and it provides $15 billion in funding for states to implement programs aimed at addressing gun violence and bolstering school security and mental health. not in the plan, a so-called red flag law that could prevent dangerous or troubled individuals from getting guns but texas senator john cornyn argues this plan will allow states to decide on their own regulations. >> this grant program will give every state funding that implements programs that they themselves have adopted to stop individuals in crisis from reaching the point of violence or self-harm. >> reporter: senate minority leader mitch mcconnell vowing to support the bill saying for years the far left falsely

claimed congress could only address the terrible issue of mass murders by trampling on people's constiutional rights. this bill proves that false. but last night the nra argues otherwise saying this legislation can be abused to restrict lawful gun purchases, infringe upon the rights of law-abiding americans and use federal dollars to fund gun control measures by state and local politicians. the senate voted last night 64-34 to advance the proposal. that means it could be approved by the end of the week, but it's still unclear how much this bill will cost and how it will be paid for, which could be a challenge going forward. andrew, mona. >> andrea, thank you. we're also following new developments from the uvalde school massacre investigation and we'll have those details later this half hour. now to the january 6th hearings. the committee investigating the attack on the capitol laying out new evidence claiming that former president trump was directly involved in the scheme to put forward fake electors to

reverse the 2020 election and now a new revelation about ivanka trump and what she said about the election results. abc's faith abubey is here now with us with the very latest. good morning, faith. >> reporter: good morning, mona. ivanka trump told the january 6th committee in sworn testimony that she accepted the 2020 election results, but that's not exactly what she told a filmmaker before the riot. this morning, abc news confirms that a filmmaker has now turned over his footage for the january 6th committee from an interview with ivanka trump weeks before the january 6th attack. ivanka reportedly told the filmmaker that her father should fight the results of the election. "the new york times" maggie haberman first reporting the details. >> she inc. -- endorsed the idea that he should continue fighting, that he should keep seeking every legal remedy were her words. >> reporter: that appears to be a different view from ivanka's recorded testimony to the january 6th committee. when she said she believed former attorney bill barr who said there was no evidence of

widespread election fraud. >> i respect attorney general barr. so i accepted what he was saying. >> reporter: the committee's hearing yesterday focused on election officials in arizona and georgia. former president trump and his allies are accused of pressuring those officials to overturn the results. georgia election worker shaye moss and her mother ruby freeman were falsely accused of election tampering by trump and rudy giuliani. >> a lot of threats, wishing death upon me, saying things like, be glad it's 2020 and 1920. >> the president of the united states is supposed to represent every american, not to target one, but he targeted me. >> reporter: rusty bowers, arizona's republican speaker of the house, testified that trump and his allies including his lawyer john eastman asked him to convene a special session of the arizona legislature to throw out

the electoral votes joe biden had won and replace them with a phony state of pro-trump electors. >> and i said, you're asking me to do something that's never been done in history, the history of the united states, and i'm going to put my state through that without sufficient proof, and that's going to be good enough with me? that i would put us through that, my state, that i swore to uphold both in constitution and in law? no, sir. >> reporter: the committee also revealed text messages on january 6th from an aide for wisconsin senator ron johnson to former vice president mike pence's staff saying that johnson wanted to deliver fake elector votes to pence. senator johnson late yesterday denying any role in a fake elector plot. >> we got handed an envelope that was supposed to go the vice president. i didn't know.

so we called out the vice president. he didn't want it. we didn't deliver it. i had no hand in any of it. >> reporter: meanwhile house minority leader kevin mccarthy reacting to the evidence presented yesterday defended former president trump. >> the president always has a right to question an election. >> reporter: mona, the hearing resumes tomorrow. the focus then will be trump's alleged effort to use the justice department to overturn the election. mona. >> faith abubey, thank you. the family of a black man killed by a white police officer near minneapolis will now receive more than $3 million. the settlement over daunte wright's killing will be paid by the city of brooklyn center. former police officer kim potter is serving two years for manslaughter and she said she thought she had pulled her taser during a struggle with wright, but it was her service weapon. now to the emergency at miami airport. a fire erupting after the landing gear failed, and now we're hearing from some of the passengers who ran to escape. new images show the panic moments after a passenger

plane's landing gear collapsed under its nose while landing in miami. the red air flight arriving from the dominican republic skidding and catching fire. in this video shot by a passenger, you can see the heavily damaged nose and the right wing engulfed in flames. people heard screaming. the 126 passengers rushing to evacuate with thick black smoke billowing behind them. within moments firefighters arrive dousing the fire as people scatter across the runway. crews quickly getting the fire under control. >> there still fire on the right side over there? >> looks like the fire is under control. >> we're going to go look inside the fuselage to make sure everybody is out. >> reporter: once safely in the terminal, passengers describe what they felt as the plane touched down. >> it started shaking very,

very, very, very hard, and then the airplane just went off the runway. >> reporter: in the end three passengers were taken to local hospitals with only minor injuries. the ntsb is sending a team to investigate the incident. all right, time now for a look at your wednesday weather. damaging winds will be the biggest threat from a storm system that moves into the mid-atlantic and northeast today. there's also a chance for large hail and an isolated tornado. the area seeing those storms will be in the 90s this afternoon, but further south there's still triple-digit heat from texas to the carolinas. heat advisories are in place for five southern states. checking the high temperatures elsewhere, mid to upper 60s in the northeast today and the midwest finally sees some slightly cooler conditions. coming up, a woman being held hostage uses a food delivery app to escape. but first president biden
