get paid for it if congress doesn't make the necessary fix. they're trying to come up with that financial fix to make sure that these agents get the money that they are entitled to by law agents can't receive what their salary and over time any more than $160,000. that means when they hit that limit, they're done. their goal to raise it to $187,000 because it's the belief that they're going to need this over time in the years to come. leon, we'll see you coming up on nightly news. >> glad to see you have a short commute, tonight. take care. peter is going to have much more on nightly news with lester holt coming up right after this broadcast. president trump says he likes to win, but at some gift shops, white house memorabilia is appearing to be a tough sale. souvenir sales have been on decline since president trump took office. the manager of white house gifts told us they're doing smaller orders of trinkets to see whether the stuff actually
