wondering why metro is spending any money on ads right now. leaders of metro's union are accusing agency leaders ev s of mismanagement. a panel of up lenion leaders an experts describe a culture of unsafe complains for riders and workers as well as a culture of unjust firings and retaliation by management against about low level metro employees. metro gm paul wiedefeld's recent fires of several track workers in response to the derailment sparked new frustration. >> they're being shooelded and protected while our workers are being silenced. >> at 5:00 and 6:00, chrkristei wright will speak to a worker

session. one that starts next week. as soon as it was published on the website, we started to hear from some of you, questions, concerns about what exactly it entails. i want to share some of what we've dug up as to what it's supposed to imply. it says no individual shall go into a facility designated for use by members of the opposite sex. but it goes further and here is the point that has some concerns mainly for those involved with schools. it says that a principal within 24 hours needs to notify a parent or guardian if their child chooses to identify as a member of the opposite sex or chooses to come out as transgender so to speak. we wanted to matter from the person who authored this bill and that was delegate bob marshall, republican here in prince william county. he agreed to talk to us about what his intention to introducing this is. >> let's figure you're a woman going down 95 at 8:00 at night and you want to stop

state owned restroom. you want guys walking in and out there while you're in there? i don't think so. this is a public safety issue as far as i'm concerned. >> reporter: coming up at 5:00, we'll delve a little deeper, we'll talk to some school representatives, those who are leaving some of the local schools here in northern virginia, and a local reverend who will weigh in as to the i h implications if this were to become a law. i'm david culver, news 4. just 16 days to go until the inauguration and plans for protests starting to come together. the messages around town that may be a sign of things to come. a popular guy either may have more health benefits than just cutting down on weight. why it could also be good for your brain. and a local mayor received a terrifying phone call. now we've learned it's part

better act fast if you're planning to take a marc train to the inauguration. the window is starting to close. the maryland transit administration is selling tickets online through january 12, but they have to be mailed to you which of course takes time. you can also by at the frederick station if tickets are still available. and preparations are already under way to handle the big crowds expected and the protests. >> tom sherwood has that story first at 4:00. >> reporter: say no to the trump agenda.

more from chris clackum. >> reporter: mumbling but defending himself, dylann roof declared in a brief opening statement that he did not want his former attorneys introducing mental health evidence because as he put it, there is nothing wrong with me psychologically. it was the first time roof ever addressed the jury directly. the same jury who convicted him last month of murder and hate crimes for the june 2015 church shooting in charleston that left nine parishioners dead. in his opening, prosecutor nathan williams said this defendant's horrific acts justify the death penalty. victims' family members were called to talk about the life and loss of loved ones, starting with jennifer pinckney, widow of the reverend pinckney who spoke of a loving pastor and father of their two daughters, but turned to the terror of that night

daughters were upstairs inside the church when the shooting began. pinckney testified i heard pop, pop, pop, it hit me then it was gunshots. and immediately worried her husband was a victim. prosecutors may call as many as two dozen others like pinckney over the next two weeks before letting the jury finally decide whether roof should die for what he did. chris clackum, nbc news. it's a terrifying scheme and it's happened again. a man said that he was in sterling when he got a call yesterday afternoon, a young woman saying that she he had been kidnapped. and then police say a man came on the phone demanding a ran system f some for the man's daughter. the man hung up because he does not have a daughter. last year our iteam reported this is an emerging trend known as virtual kidnapping. fbi records show the feds have investigated more than 60 virtual kidnapping

nationwide since 2014, including a case in frederick, maryland where crooks pretended to kidnap a man's wife and he wired the money but managed to cancel the transaction after realizing that it was in fact a scam. fbi agents warn that virtual kidnappers often try to keep would-be victims on the phone as long as possible to prevent those victims from realizing that they have been ripped off. cleanup is still under way after the deadly storm in albany, georgia. authorities confirm a sixth death, a 73-year-old woman who died from smoke inhalation. officials believe the victim was using a candle during the power outage which caused the fire. monday night's storm caused severe damage throughout albany, about 1,000 homes have been damaged, power line, street signs and trees all still down. i got to tell you, if we had to endure two cold rainy days to get today, it was worth it. >> but that is short

because from what ooif ii'm hea things are about to which i think. >> how about the next five cold days? >> not a fair day. >> not sure which way you're going. but the cold air is moving in and it has been quite nice today. high temperature so far unofficially 57 ought at the airport. very nice after we saw some rain come through. but now we're starting to see the changes in the other direction. temperatures starting to go down and they will go down in a big way. right now still seeing some sunshine, cloud cover, too. but a pretty nice afternoon. current temperature right now sitting in the 50s across the region and we will see that right on through the rest of the afternoon, too. temperature-wise, earlier it was 57, but now we are dropping into the lower 50s, 53 degrees now. winds out of the northwest at 15 miles per hour. those northwest winds bringing in the colder air. 45 in martinsburg already down to 39 in thurmont. so you know the cold air is coming and it will be here by this time tomorrow morning. now, on the radar, nothing to show. we won't see anything for about the next 24

things. first off, a lot of lake-effect snow, a couple of feet around the buffalo area. that is one storm. that will help to bring in the cold air for us. and the next one way off toward the west, we're talking california and parts of the colorado rockies. believe it or not, the next few days, they could see 4 to 6 feet of snow after they have already seen four feet, dhthey could ge another 4 to 6 feet. that storm system is going to eventually move or way and that is the saturday storm we keep talking about. right now, we're tracking the cold. 53 d.c., 28 columbus, ohio. 18 in chicago. 4 in minneapolis. we will be seeing very cold air and this is the longest stretch of cold weather that we've seen. cold enough that when our next storm system development develops tomorrow night into friday, it will be spoke. so tomorrow just cloud cover around the region being but already show showers in parts of the region tomorrow afternoon and a few more tomorrow evening. but after about 8:00, the snow

area. and just about everybody sees that snowfall. but watch tomorrow as the storm develops off the coast, it moves to the north of the city. so the city not nearly as much. and i think that will be the case and by 8:00, it is out of here. so hoof alf an inch or less i-9 south and east. north and west, maybe half inch to an inch. so that is the areas with the l biggest impact. could be some delays early friday morning, so we'll watch it. but temperature-wise we will be in the 30s. my ten day forecast didn't work, so let me try it one more time. so take a look at the numbers next couple of days. they will be quite frigid as we move on through the weekend. temperatures only in the 20s and low 30s saturday and sunday. high on sunday only 29. amelia draper will have more on this. it has become apo

developing dementia. >> reporter: also u.s. news and world report ranked a similar die the called the dash diet best overall. the word dash has nothing do with fast food. instead it stands for dietary approaches to stop hypertension. experts say it seems do just that, helping to bring down high blood pressure. it's also rich in fruits and veggies, whole grains, lean proteins and low fat dairy. the dash and mediterranean diets are very similar and your doctor can help figure out which is right for you. the folks at harvard a a little advice. if you're more inclined to eat grilled chicken, that is more the dash diet. but if a plate of hummus and red wine sound more appetizing, explore are the mediterranean. erika edwards, nbc news. if eating right and exercising is part of your resolution, listen up. we're

there has been a shooting near a school in manassas. let's look at pictures from chopper 4 showing this is the medevac that is about to land. police say the man was shot in a wooded area near the stone wall jackson high school. police say the shooter is still out there.

stonewall jackson has has been secured which means entry into the school is now restricted, but all the students are safe. and david culver is headed to manassas, we will get you more information as soon as we learn more. back to you. now at 4:30, the battle over obamacare. republicans are already fulfilling their vow to repeal the health care law, but they have also admitted their replacement is far from ready. president obama went to capitol hill today to try to save as much of his signature law as possible. steve handelsman is on the 4hil with the very latest. >> reporter: well, the next time barack obama comes up here to the hill, it will be for the swearing in of donald trump. this trip was to motivate the anti-trump team. >> happy new year. >> reporter: president obama came to the capitol to rally democrats to take the fight for obamacare to the american people. and the democrats new senate leader did. >> the republican plan to

america great again, it would make america sick again. and lead to chaos. >> reporter: donald trump tweeted massive increases of obamacare will take place this year and dems are to flablame. mike pence went to the hill to rally republicans. >> the first order of business is to repeal and replace obamacare. >> reporter: but with what, republicans still don't know. >> we want to make sure that there is an orderly transition so the rug is not pulled out from under the families currently struggling under obamacare. >> reporter: they admit the gop alternative might not kick in for two years. >> because a replacement plan you won't know until this summer and that is even too late to put forth new plans for 2018. >> reporter: obamacare is working to get coverage for no americans just 11% now have no insurance. but the average premium cost is now $18,000, that is up 26%. president obama stepping up his argumeha

care law instead of tweaking it will hurt the nation. >> look out for the american people. >> reporter: and will politically wound republicans. congress soon will vote repeal. the new president will roll back obamacare with a series of executive orders. but then comes the big fight. the long fight over what will be included and what will not begnz harsh words over

the naacp takes aim for donald trump's attorney general and garbage man story hits the big screen. tory johnson is here with todayedtoday 's talk around the town. tyler perry getting some flack. but what are your listeners saying about his response? >> it's really interesting how this is playing out because tyler perry aside from this whole new controversy is a figure that just triggers a response -- different responses from a lot of people. some people love him, they love everything that he's done going back all the way to when he was making plays and touring all over the country. and now he's a movie producer with his own studio. so they respect all of that work. but others have found for a long time what followed him is that some people feel his work is stereotypical, buffoonery, a lot of people feel madea is repeating images that african-americans have tried to get away

subjected to in hollywood years ago. now because they weren't able to give any other voice. so folks are scratching their head on his claim of reverse racism because they say maybe the criticism is unfair. but, you know, white actors are not excluded from hollywood. so it's very interesting. as we've been saying, the reactions to perry's comments all over the place. lisa tells me that she disagrees with tyler perry on this one. she feels he's actually back handing the very audience that has been supporting the projects that he's been making for tv and the silver screen. >> tyler perry does have the right of creative express as an artist being that he started his career supporting the african-american community through the arts, theater and film to now change lanes and to expect that there would not be some sort of backlash is silly. and he's smarter than that.

assumption on his part. >> and a lot of people were telling me that it's to being for him to tell different stories even with a majority white being a a white actors because it will bring a different perspective. but they are confuse order what he was trying to say. >> different topic here. protesters stage a sit-in outside senator are jeff sessions office to protest his nomination for attorney general. what do your listeners say? >> a lot of people are concerned about senator sessions and his past. reported racist comments back when he was trying to become a federal judge back in 1986. those comments from decades ago. but they're still concerned about his anti-immigrant and anti-civil rights views these days. so they are worried that important protections gained during the justice department while it was run by eric holder and loretta lynch, they're concerned that those gains could be lost. the civil rights division they are feeling like it could be

gutted. and the concerned that the doj make sure that the police reforms in cities like baltimore are carried out. so they want to know are those things going to happen under a sessions tenure. of course that remains to be seen, but they are concerned about that. >> and let's go on a wider note. a lot of people raving about the new movie fences. what is it about this movie? >> well, first of all, the thing that people are telling me about first off is that viola davis and denzel washington. seeing them on screen together in this very powerful play by august wilson already getting oscar buzz so people are excited about that. but that really only scratches the surface because august wilson plays are kind of african-americana in a way. and lots of people have seen his play, but very new have come fe the screen. so his widow says when she saw the set that denzel washington at

modest two story home in pittsburgh, it took her to her husband's world. so it's really transporting people to a time when things were tough foreafrican-americer african-americans for a man dealing with changes and just an interesting story. like i said, a lot of oscar buzz. >> looking forward to seeing it. thank you, guys. we have been pretty lucky when it comes to gas prices for the last year or so. but things could besgzui)z chan very soon. what it will mean for your wallet. plus one woman walked out of her house to find something from the sky that she says is just plane, pun intended, gross. and take a look at future weather. this is tomorrow at 9:00 in the evening. snow showers moving in. when they move out and what this means for your commu as we tewo

this should be the name. or something more like "golden gold." or maybe, "mmmmmm mmhmm." but, with 20% of your daily fiber, its actually fiber one. so delicious, it should have another name. in the district today, d.c. mayor muriel bowser took action to close what she call as gap in a broken criminal system. it involves g chltps monitors. the mayor signed new legislation that makes it a crime if they remove or tamper with the device. violators could face up to six months in jail. before today, messing with the gps wasn't even a crime. >> what it means to be out on gps is you otherwise would be in jail in most

but for the decision to let you come back to the community earlier. and in exchange for being able to come back to the community earlier, you have to comply with the terms of your release. >> bowser says she also wants to make sure that police are notified immediately when a gps device has been disabled. right now that notification could take days even weeks. some think the recent death of a yoga instructor could have been prevented if the suspect was wearing a gps. this time of year you can expect rain, snow and thinking in between. but not this. this is enough to ruin your day. a plane was approaching the salt lake city international airport when it started getting rid of the bathroom waste. it landed right on top of one woman's car and then to make matters worst, bethany says that this isn't the first time this has happened. >> this is like hazardous stuff.

>> the faa says it's tough to track down the responsible plane without knowing the flight pattern and the exact time of the incident. >> our script says react, but i think we can do in a wina that one word, yuck. >> and a few more. how unlucky do you have to be for that to happen twice to you. >> pretty unlucky. >> what does that do to the paint job. >> ouch. this is a popular place to go for you want to drink with just a hint of summer. >> but now its future is in serious jeopardy. why this local beach bar had to close its doors again. and consumer reporter susan hogan will tell us which credit cards will get you the

the ground and reynolds sitting inside of his car. prosecutors say the victim rear ended reynolds' car. he became angry, got out of his vehicle and struck the victim several times. coming up at 5:00, you'll hear a 911 call made to police and why reynolds says he is the one who feared for his life. reporting in montgomery county, meagan fitzgerald, news 4. first at 4:00, your health care coverage at the center of a massive fight on capitol hill. president obama was there today. he urged democrats to defend the affordable care act, but it's still the first thing to go according to vice president elect mike pence. donald trump tweeting today calling democrats clowns and saying democrats needs to take the fall for the, quote, mess. both sides say that they know americans are at the very heart of the debate. and many are worried about what any changes would mean for them. tom costello has that part of

>> reporter: good afternoon. i'm in gettysburg, a part of the state that voted for president-elect trump and a part of the state where obamacare is unpopular. we're talking here to people who not only benefited from obamacare, but want to see it replaced. >> i hope they have enough sense to know that there are people out here like me and i'm not the only one in the boat that is sinking. >> reporter: and in addition, we're talking to somebody in kentucky who says they need obamacare. without it, they have no insurance. >> for us mainly it would hurt our ability to grow our business. like most small business owners, we're kind of boot strapping this. >> reporter: two sides to the story. it's coming up on "nbc nightly news." if it feels like we've been on a weather roller coaster for the past few days or weeks, not going to let up anytime soon. >> buckle up, because are we in for some changes. >> and this is the highest that
