agreement to head off a potential default on government loans. however, there's still many hurdles in the way as we await the text of that bill. before president biden can sign the deal, it must first pass the house, then the senate. today majority leader chuck schumer put senators on notice that a vote could come as early as next weekend, before the june 5th deadline. cbs's natalie brand leads us off tonight from the white house. natalie, good evening. >> reporter: good evening, jericka. the president spoke again today with speaker mccarthy. he tells us he's confident this bill will reach his desk. >> we've got good news. >> reporter: president biden expressed optimism that he can sell his budget deal to members of his party. >> we've reached a bipartisan budget agreement and we're ready to move to the full congress. and i think it's a really important step forward. >> reporter: over on capitol hill house speaker kevin mccarthy is working on getting the votes.

>> so it'sot00wh everybody wants, but when you look, the country is going to be stronger. >> reporter: the deal struck between the white house and gop negotiators late saturday night would raise the debt limit for the next two years. it would keep nondefense spending roughly at the same levels through 2024. the agreement protects social programs such as social security, medicaid and new programs for veterans' medical care, but what temporarily place new work requirements on some receiving government assistance, including food stamps. the deal would also loosen environmental permitting for new energy projects. >> i'm not happy with some of the things i'm hearing about. >> reporter: even as some progressive democrats and conservative republicans voice and tweet opposition, party leaders are sounding optimistic they can get it across the finish line. >> can you do that? can you guarantee people that we will not see a default? >> yes. >> reporter: the first real test will be a vote in the house as early as wednesday, jericka.

>> natalie brand at the whr ush. let's turn now to scott macfarlane on capitol hill. scott, you've been speaking with lawmakers from both sides all day. just how much danger are we still in at this hour? >> reporter: jericka, getting an agreement is one thing. getting the votes for an agreement, that's a different challenge. i've spoken to multiple house democrats with grave concerns, they say, about these adjustments, the tightening of eligibility for nutritional assistance. the dealmakers tried to soften that blow by exempting people experiencing homelessness and veterans, but it's a real concern and it could grow. meanwhile, freedom caucus members in the republican caucus have criticized the size of the potential debt ceiling increase and the size they say too small of the spending cuts. with 72 hours till the first possible vote, jericka, these concerns can spread and spread widely. >> and these concerns aren't new. the debt ceiling limit was created back in 1917. it's been raised 78 times since 1960. if the house and senate don't

reach a deal, scott, can you explain this so-called emergency backup plan? >> reporter: there's something called a discharge petition which all 213 house democrats have signed. if they can get five republicans to join them, they can vote to raise the debt ceiling without all of the things in this controversial agreement, but five republicans, that's a pretty heavy lift and it might not be ready by june 5th. all of this can rattle the stock markets in the meantime, jericka. the markets are closed tomorrow, though. >> we wait and see. scott macfarlane, thank you. as we mark memorial day weekend, the navy's blue angels headlined the great pocono raceway air show in pennsylvania with picture perfect weather. some other places, though, not so lucky. let's turn now to paul goodloe with our mars the at the weather channel. how's the forecast looking, paul? >> good evening, jericka. our problem area remains the carolinas and now moving into the la's beekeeping things sogg and windy and cloudy across the

southeast. on the satellite it looks like some type of tropical storm but it's not. it's cold core, hence the temperatures in the 60s and 70s. but now the rain, as we head through tonight and into memorial day, moving into our nation's capital, making for a soggy memorial day for the millions attending some of the services there. but the rain lingers even into tuesday. this coastal low continues to bring us cloud cover and cooler temperatures. look at your memorial day forecast across the region. we'll see plenty of 70s with some scattered showers and thunderstorms, but not too far away we've got upper 70s in atlanta and nashville. and nationwide on memorial day we are warming up. talking 80s across the great lakes for your memorial day monday. jericka? >> all right. thanks, paul. police are investigating a shooting in new mexico that left three people dead and five others wounded. it happened late yesterday during an annual motorcycle rally known for drawing thousands of people in the town of red river. police say the victims were members of two rival motorcycle gangs.

investigative committee spent months looking into paxton over years of scandal. >> several members of this house received telephone calls from general paxton personally threatening them with political consequences in their next election. >> reporter: shortly after the vote, former president donald trump rushed to paxton's defense. and in a tweet texas senator ted cruz called the impeachment a travesty. ken paxton is suspended while the texas senate decides whether he should be removed from office. his wife, angela paxton, a two-term senator, is among those deciding his fate. she has not said if she will be recusing herself. jericka? >> astrid, thank you. catastrophic weather and the high cost of construction has led insurance company state farm to stop accepting new applications for home and business insurance. cbs's elise preston has more on what this could mean for the future.

arsene describes the scene as a vision of hell. >> translator: everything was on fire. all of the guys are screaming. some bodies are starting to burn down. our boys started giving medical aid on the spot. >> reporter: most people are of the belief that the russians were responsible for that. what is your belief? >> translator: it was russians, 100%. >> reporter: more than 50 of their fellow service members perished. the two men again escaped death. then forced onto russian tv, they said, to show how well they had been treated. eventually they were freed in a prisoner swap. when their health improved, they went right back to fight. do you think you'll get mariupol back? >> translator: obviously, 100%. now it's personal for us against them.
