>> it was full of holes. some of the holes were really big shell holes. >> reporter: the "mi amigo" had been badly shot up on a bombing raid against the german luftwaffe. more than 40 b-17s didn't make it back that day. "mi amigo" almost did. it was apparently trying land on the field where tony and his friends were standing and watching. >> we saw this figure. >> reporter: somebody waving? >> well, we thought they were just waving. >> reporter: tony is now convinced the wave meant something else. >> actually they were telling us to get out of the way. >> reporter: with the kids in the field, the pilot veered away.

this is the "cbs overnight news." welcome to the "overnight news." i'm jericka duncan. the u.s. senate is set to vote today on two bills that would reopen shuttered federal agencies, at least for a short time. one has money for president trump's long-promised border wall. the other does not. whether those bills pass or not, the 800,000 federal workers not being paid will miss their second paycheck on friday. meanwhile, there's still no confirmation about the president's state of the union address that's supposed to take place next tuesday. nancy cordes reports. >> reporter: park police officers and fbi employees were among those in line at a pop-up food bank today.

as the white house, a few blocks away, dealt with its own uncertainty over next week's state of the union address. a white house aide e-mailing the sergeant at arms on capitol hill asking to hold a walk-through meeting that was postponed last week after house speaker nancy pelosi said the speech should wait until after the shutdown. white house officials tell cbs news some aides want the address to take place next tuesday as planned while others favor a rally outside washington instead. >> the opportunity to end all this is staring us all in the face. >> reporter: with government workers set to miss their second paycheck this week, the senate's republican leader scheduled a vote for thursday on the president's latest proposal. the bill includes mr. trump's wish for $5.7 billion in border wall funding. in exchange some so-called dreamers, young people brought here illegally as children,ree f protection fdeat

but house speaker nancy pelosi after dropping by the food bank said the bill was no compromise because it was the president who eliminated those protections for dreamers in the first place. >> well, i'm give you these back temporarily if you give me a wall permanently. >> reporter: the fbi agents association warned today that the shutdown could lead some fbi agents to consider career options that provide more stability for their families. >> fbi agents should not have to go work at a store stocking shelves because they can't feed their families. >> i will acknowledge their hardships. >> reporter: the president's economic adviser larry kudlow insisted most of the pain will be temporary. >> once the governmentreopens, these resources and opportunities will come back. i mean, literally the day of. >> reporter: the president's proposal and a democratic

alternative both appear poised to fail in the senate on thursday. well, the fbi says it's broken up a terror plot in upstate new york. the target was a muslim community, and the suspects a group of former boy scouts. jeff pegues has the details. >> reporter: police described the plot to attack a group of muslims in central new york state as serious and real. 20-year-old brian colaneri, 19-year-old vincent vetromile, 18-year-old andrew crysel and a 16-year-old suspect whose name is being withheld, were arrested friday in greece, new york. police chief patrick phelan. >> if they had carried plot, which every inonthat they would have died. >> reporter: investigators say the men, some of whom knew each other from the boy scouts, were targeting islamberg, a rural community that's home to several hundred muslims and the headquarters for the muslims of america organization. according to court papers, the suspects had built three

improvised explosive devices in the shape of a mason jar wrapped in duct tape. investigators also say they had access to 23 rivals and shotguns. >> we found firearms in almost every location that we searched. and once again, the bombs were all one location. that was the home of the 16-year-old. >> reporter: the bombs are being sent to fbi labs in quantico, virginia for analysis, where investigators will try determine if the devices were viable. islamberg was the target of another planned attack in 2015 when robert doggart, a former congressional candidate from tennessee, was arrested. he was eventually sentenced to 20 years in prison for plotting to burn down a mosque, a school, and a cafeteria in the community. this was another case of if you see something say something. police on friday say the 16-year-old who was arrested was showing suspicious pictures on his phone at school. another student passed along the information, and police began the investigation. and that quickly led to the arrests. there's a new caravan of

central american migrants heding to the u.s. they're now in southern mexico. and as adriana diaz reports, a lot of them may decide to stay there. >> reporter: this time around we haven't seen any chaos at mexico's southern border, and that is because under a new policy legal migrants are getting humanitarian visas. in fact, most of the people on this very long line entered mexico illegally late last year. they're going to board buses this morning to get back to the border to get that legal paperwork. so far more than 6,500 people have applied. there's no sign of a slowdown at mexico's southern border. the hundreds here are among the first to test mexico's new migration policy that starts with these bracelets, which get embedded with their personal information. people are calling this one of the most important pieces of paper they've ever gotten because this is what registers them with the mexican government. this is their ticket to eventually get a humanitarian visa. we were the only news outlet

allowed inside the government's week-old processing center where authorities photograph, interview, fingerprint, and take iris recognition scans of applicants. immigration official ana laura martinez. she's saying if people are going to come regardless even illegally better to give them a way to pass to come in a way that's regularized, that's legal. >> i believe that mexico's doing the right thing -- >> reporter: the organization pueblo sin fronteras has been assisting caravans since 2008. >> why not discourage people from making this journey and doing the same thing? >> how can you discourage someone that is willing to go through hell? >> that's what you're seeing, are people willing to go through hell? knowing that the chances of them getting into the u.s. are slim. >> i see it. i lived it. >> reporter: while many are u.s. bound, others like 19-year-old elmer lopez, who never finished high school in honduras, plans to use his humanitarian visa to stay in mexico.

>> [ speaking spanish ]. >> reporter: he says you have to know how to take advantage of an opportunity like, this people don't get these opportunities typically. migrants country caravan told us they heard about it being organized on social media back in honduras and the honduran government actually took to twitter to try to discourage people from making this journey. now, despite the new legal process, people are still entering mexico illegally. one such group is more than 100 miles north from here, and we hear that there are fears they're running into trouble with cartels. the "cbs overnight news" will be right back.

>> announcer: this is the "cbs overnight news." the federal government took a step this month to make it easier for people to shop for affordable health care. a new rule requires hospitals to post their prices online. how is that working out? well, not too well. hospital bills are notoriously impossible to decipher, and critics say the new menu of prices and services doesn't tell the whole story. anna werner sorts it all out. >> i was very worried that i was going to end up not only in pain in my back but also in my

wallet. >> reporter: when christopher george injured his back last year, a doctor told him to get two x-rays. a friend told him about the price checker service at st. luke's university health network in pennsylvania, where george learned he could prepay for his x-rays for about $100 each. >> that's why i went there. i knew what i was paying for the first time medically. >> reporter: but experiences like higs are rare. a new government rule requiring hospitals to post price lists was designed to help patients figure out how much they would be charged. the master price lists went up earlier this month. but those spreadsheets often contain more than 10,000 items, with names that resemble medical gobbledygook. we found something called an sc sp rplc picc. don't know what it is, but it's priced at about $8,500. jeanie pinder runs a website called clear health costs where consumers can look up medical prices. >> it's not comprehensible to the average human being. >> so you look at this string of

letters and numbers. ans for a livin ac it. >> reporter: at one new york hospital there are three different listings for something called ear, priced at $48,000 to $110,000. there are five more listings for other ear. procedures costing from $27,000 to more than $150,000. or maybe you need a procedure involving a stent. but would you be able to pick out the one your doctors might use? from this florida hospital's price list. is it the one listed at $5,400 or the one that costs nearly nine times that? what's more, pinder says the prices aren't real. >> they're fanciful. they're inflated. >> explain that. >> hospitals have a list price that's very much like the manufacturer suggested retail price for electronics or a list price for a car. very rarely is the hospital ever paid that actual list price. >> reporter: that's because negotiat byic insurers, which a

considered trade secrets. pinder worries patients may be misled about their actual oust-pocket costs. >> you might find this wildly inflated list price and decide you can't afford it and choose not to get treatment. >> reporter: francine botek, a senior vice president at st. luke's, believes releasing price lists is a step in the right direction but she also says hospitals need to do a better job helping patients understand that information. >> this is the direction health care needs to go. if hospitals were doing what st. luke's is doing and offering transparency tools, patients truly would be able to do price shopping and they would be able to compare. >> so there are no uniform naming standards. their thing is if you want to compare prices between hospitals that would be very hard to do. they all call it something different. but it's not all hopeless. jeanie pinder says there are a few things you can do. first, ask for the medical code. that will help you zero in on

the actual item on the price list. ask if there are other charges like surgical room rates or med kaigsz or medications or additional tests. also you can ask how much it will cost with insurance and without. ask about the cash price. you might save money. and finally, if you can, get everything in writing. the "cbs overnight news" will be right back. ♪ when you have nausea, ♪ heartburn, ♪ indigestion, ♪ upset stomach, ♪ diarrhea... girl, pepto ultra coating will treat your stomach right. ♪nausea, heartburn, ♪ indigestion, upset stomach, ♪ diarrhea... try pepto with ultra coating.

as more states move towards legalizing marijuana, there are growing concerns about safety on the road. dr. jon lapook has a look behind the wheel. >> reporter: at the most advanced driving simulator in the world at the university of iowa the study of the effects of driving under the influence of cannabis has been in high gear. >> it looks like a spaceship. >> there's an entire car inside. >> reporter: dr. marilyn westus has been studying cannabis for 20 years. >> the ability to take information in, evaluate it, make decisions and initiate them, greatly affected by cannabis. >> reporter: she put me in the driver's seat when we visited the lab for 60 minutes. >> it's changing. the car's going away. i feel the rumbling in my seat. i'm look in the sideview mirror. wow. >> what a fabulous resource this is for us to safely evaluate the effects of drugs. >> reporter: the simulator

presents real-life driving experiences designed to test an impaired driver's reactions. >> but if i were stoned and somebody suddenly ran out, i might have a slower reaction. >> you might have -- you definitely would have a slower reaction. and a harder time deciding what you should do. >> reporter: right now there is no reliable roadside test to know for sure if a driver is impaired by cannabis. >> so marijuana has a number of important effects. one of the things that it affects is the ability to stay within your lane. the weaving that occurs. it also has a tremendous effect on your speed. at low doses it will reduce your speed because the marijuana driver tends to think they might be impaired. so they try to compensate by going slower. that can be very dangerous. >> reporter: these dangers are at the heart of a recent study which found more than half of

michigan residents surveyed who used medical cannabis for chronic pain admitted to driving while a little high. one in five admitted to driving while very high. study author erin bonnar says unlike alcohol there's currently no legal limit for pot. >> there are so many different types of marijuana products that have a different amount of thc in them, and we don't yet know enough about how we're processing and metabolizing those products to say, well, you can have this much of a gummy or you can have this many hits of a vape and then be safe. >> reporter: that's a concern for law enforcement. there are 2.1 million medical marijuana users across the 33 states where medical cannabis is legal. those states vary in the amount of psychoactive component allowed. >> people aren't even being counseled about what's legal and what's not legal to do if you're prescribed cannabis in a state. oern davinsky of nyu langone health, conducted the trials that led to the first

fda-approved cannabis medication, a drug for epilepsy. >> has the use of medical marijuana and the legislation of it gotten ahead of the science? >> absolutely. essentially politicians have voted that this should be a legal medical therapy, and we don't have data from rigorous scientific studies to define what the safety is. >> reporter: dr. jon lapook. well, one car you definitely do not want to drive high is the new acura nsx. acura is japanese, but the super car is designed here in the united states. don dahler was lucky enough to get behind the wheel. he has the story from the acura design facility in torrance, california. >> reporter: a super car is loosely defined by certain specs. it is handmade. it could go from zero to 60 in around three seconds with a top speed of about 200 miles an hour. it's also very expensive. $150,000 or more. and it's rare. a u.s.-made model like this nsx

may be one of the rarest of all. this was designed here and built in a factory in ohio. so this is what a cannonball must feel. acceleration that pins your eyeballs to the back of your skull. ♪ with a 573-horsepower engine mated to three electric motors that give the wheels instantaneous torque, the acura nsx is made to go fast. absurdly fast. and hug every curve like its tires were made of velcro. acura engineer jason wid mer is also a professional driver.s a experience. >> this is a different experience we brought to the supercar segment. >> reporter: it will sling you from 0 to 60 in 2.9 seconds, about the same a time it took me to read this sentence. >> you have the main gasoline

engine and then you have three electric motors in this. >> we do. >> reporter: the nsx's journey from its beginnings in japan almost 30 years ago to being manufactured exclusively in the u.s. as of 2017 is one of international cooperation and the company's desire to see if it could build the car to rival the ferraris and mclarens and porsches of the world. if you believe the automotive industry press, they did. to find out how, we met up with acura's vice president and general manager, john aketa, at their gleaming factory in marchiesville, ohio. >> this is whatnot i picture when he i think of a place they build cars. this feels more like a hospital. >> yeah. it is a supercar, a bespoke vehicle. there's so much technical things in the vehicle. so to ensure that you're not missing anything it has to be very clean, yeah. >> reporter: i'm intrigued by the fact that this factory is here in ohio. it's not outside tokyo.

so what was the philosophy in building this car here in the u.s.? >> i think it's the philosophy of build where you sell. america is the biggest market for supercars. and we feel the people that are here understand supercars. >> reporter: a side benefit to that, acura isn't suffering from the president's tariffs on imported vehicles. but what can the auto industry learn from a company that has sold around 2,000 of these models over the past two years? >> the innovation that we create here, anything we could do to put it into our regular manufacturing facility, it's almost like a study place to try new things that make things better. >> reporter: the nsx is part electric, part gasoline. it has state-of-the-art technologies that acura and parent company honda will eventually use in their less expensive models. they've developed new techniques rather than painting all the parts separately like most factories do. each nsx is painted all at once so that the colors match

exactly. but it goes deeper than that. the nsx is built by 100 workers who had to pass a rigorous selection process including a written exam. they are literally the best of the best at what they do. the lead designer of the nsx was a woman. and you see quite a few building them. susan dolik is the weld quality manager. what is it that attracted you to the auto industry? >> at first really it was the science. i just fell in love with manufacturing. i love the scale of it and it was just really fascinating to me. >> this science, this is where brain power meets horsepower. >> it's undoubtably a beautiful car. but what makes this a great car? >> i think what makes this car great is that it was designed for the driver. completely for the driver. we're always looking at the client, what can we do to put a smile on his face more than anything else. it's not a graph, chart. how do you graph chart a smile? i don't know. but those are things the guys

are looking for. >> reporter: how do you graph chart a smile? just like this.
