officials. the ambassador and a russian banker and that is something that jared kushner has said he's willing to talk about. he told the senate intelligence committee he's willing to come in and speak and now his attorney says he will cooperate with any other investigation which of course would include the fbi investigation now under a special counsel. >> tracie, i want to turn to the president's travel ban for a second here. an appeals court in virginia upheld the decision by a federal judge in maryland to block that ban. where does the fight go from here? >> reporter: it's headed straight to the supreme court. not necessarily soon. they probably won't hear the case until next term. this travel ban, the revised travel order is still on hold. the majority writing in this case -- in this appeals court case that it was what president trump said on the campaign trail originally about banning muslims and then more about muslims that makes this religious discrimination and unconstitutional. so now the u.s. supreme court is the only

that order. keep in mind, these are parallel cases. there's the maryland order that's now been ratified by the virginia court. there's a separate case going on in california. remember the hawaii court struck down the ban and the appeals court, that ninth circuit court of appeals that president trump has talked about personally, they're going to be hearing that case as well. >> tracie potts on the hill this morning. thank you. 4:47. a sad day for working families and children of maryland. that's what prince george's county said about the governor's veto of the earned sick leave legislation. the bill would have required employers with more than 15 workers to allow them to earn paid sick leave. governor larry hogan calls it a job killing bill. hogan supported a different bill that relied on tax incentives to coax employers into offering sick leave benefits. the governor did sign some bills yesterday, one of them was amber's law. that bill was named for amber

chenault killed by her boyfriend in 2012. she lived in prince george's county. the bill allows courts to order a domestic violence suspect to wear a gps monitoring device. that alerts victims if their abusers are in the area. covering prince george's county this morning, police tell us a man killed in fort washington wednesday likely knew the man who pulled the trigger. 19-year-old xavier johnson is accused of killing timothy harris on asbury drive. they got into an argument before that shooting. county police are also questioning a relative about the murder of an elderly man. officers went to the victim's home on mill street in fort washington to do a welfare check. that's when they found him slumped over with signs of trauma to his body. no names have been released in this investigation. want to move past this video and go to molette green at the live desk with news out of europe. molette? >> reporter: that's right. we

british police now have a tenth person in custody in the manchester bombing investigation. the man was arrested in a suburb there. now so far here are the numbers. eight men in total in police custody after manchester police released a man and a woman without charges and they are still conducting more raids amid fears that there could be more explosives out there and all of this, of course, following the suicide bombing that left 22 dead at that packed concert. back to you. >> thank you, molette. if you visit arlington national cemetery this weekend, you will see flags beside many of the grave sites. that's because of a special effort just before memorial day. more than 1,000 old guard soldiers placed american flags at each of the head stones. they do this every year going back all the way to 1948. this morning there are flags beside

the old guard is the oldest active duty infantry in the army. if you can't go in person, you can see more of the scene online. we have a gallery of pictures on the nbc washington app. beautiful tribute. a student brought his classmates to tears with the way he honored a fallen soldier. this video shows a junior at mcgruder high school and a member of jrotc here, he's in el salvador, laying a wreath at the grave of a studeew former stude. he volunteered to do this while he was back in el salvador for spring break. >> i wanted to represent the program and the school over there. i feel proud of what i did. >> three other former mcgruder students have died in service to this country. burkhart

corporal dburrow, class of '04 both died fighting in afghanistan. >> when you think about all of the men and women who serve this country and gave their lives to protect our freedoms. just a beautiful, stunning tribute. >> absolutely. we were out running past arlington yesterday and i gave a shout out to thank the service members who we could see from the running path. you do see them putting the flags out. i took a picture. nice day to be outside for a small window of opportunity. >> severe weather, rainy, sunny. >> three days of weather all packed into one day yesterday. today we get one day's worth of weather which will be a nice change. the bright shooining object that comes up in the skye, that's the sun. we haven't seen a lot of that around here. the pattern remains fairly busy around here. there's an area of low pressure up to our north. that was our storms from yesterday. that area of low pressure is going to push on out. we're sort of caught in a very busy

going to be breezy today. northwest winds up to 20 to 30 miles per hour at times. not any real chance for severe weather today. that's good news. severe weather threat comes back tomorrow afternoon. right now dealing with a few hit-and-miss rain drops from frederick maryland, ellicott city, future weather carries little chance for rain out of here very, very quickly. passing hit and miss five-minute rain shower coming up. back to the mid and upper 50s across the area. here's future weather to help you plan out your day. a busy northwesterly flow will keep an opportunity for a stray shower or two but, again, no thunder and lightning. no gusty winds associated with severe weather. that's good news. for tomorrow, start out sunny and dry but as early as noon to early afternoon tomorrow a chance for some thunderstorms and between about 3:00 and 6:00 p.m., 3 to 6:00 tomorro

could pack quite a punch. we dry out for saturday night into the early parts of sunday morning. then sunday hit-and-miss shower chances. rumble or two. severe weather chances focused on saturday. today nice. breezy. plenty of sunshine. highs today mid 70s for most. about 77 in downtown. then near 80 tomorrow again with that 60% chance of thunderstorms tomorrow. and there's a 40% chance of a passing shower or two for sunday and monday. going to dry out as we go back to work on tuesday. let's go back over to melissa mollet to see how she's doing. >> i'm okay right now. it's going to be rough for drive drivers. if you are planning to do that, do it as early or as late as you can. we have more action on the bay bridge than we typically see. no slowdowns, just more volume in general. expected as we head into this weekend. inner loop and

beltway, fine there. no big issues. 95 southbound going to look a lot different around 5:00 p.m. today. a lot of people escaping that way. 66 into town and out of town is fine. 95 in maryland, no problems northbound or southbound. aaron? >> melissa, thank you. she is banned from walking at graduation and this morning a local pregnant teen is speaking out. why she says she's disappointed in her scho

you're watching "news 4 today." this is a story we've been following for you. hagerstown teenager was banned from walking at her high school graduation because she's pregnant. >> this morning we're hearing from maddie. her private christian school banned her saying she broke the school's abstinence pledge by becoming pregnant. in a "today" show interview she said she's heart broken. >> how important is walking at graduation to you? >> it's important to me because that is everything i worked so hard for and that's a night to acknowledge it. i go to a really small christian school. 15 kids in my class. graduation is a very big deal and i will be the only one not there to celebrate it with my friends. >> you can watch the entire interview on the "today" show. many student w
