how things look, the house on the verge of passing a major plan. >> fitzpatrick is thanking a custodian for distracting the gunman so they could get children out of the way. >> it seemed to involve luck as much as detective work. >> they're shocked. >> with a price tag of half a billion dollars. >> i wonder if he thought it was carbonated water he held it out so far. >> anybody need watter? >> lar bore genie gave pope francis one of their custom cars which he plans to auction off. really? the pope in lamborghini in a procession. can you imagine?

this morning new york democratic senator kirsten gillibrand is looking at the act. it seems to professionalize how the military prosecutes sexual assault. >> yesterday she introduced the "me too" contract. jill brand joins us from capitol hill. good morning. >> good morning. >> how pervasive is the problem on capitol hill and what can be done to stop it? >> i think the problem is pervasive. what we have is it's opaque, difficult to navigate and survivors don't know where to report. we'll make people accountable and have a survey so everybody who works here can state whether they feel safe and did they report and if not,
8:04 am
bills? >> i don't know what his bill will say. it's more than having training. he said he wants to do training. that's not enough. we need training number one, but we need to change the process so someone gets justice today. if you have someone harassed through the office, you have to go for mornlts through mediation. that's not conducive to someone reporting harassment in the workplace. >> there are two current members of congress, one democrat and republican who have engaged this kind of behavior a, but she did not name them. do you think they should be named? >> that's up to the survivor. she might want to continue with her career. she may not want to be discriminated against or retaliated against. so the way i've written my bill is to make sure the survivor makes the choice whether she wants to take the issue public or he because
8:05 am
don't have an option. they have to sign an agreement to not disclose what happened to them. >> mitch mcconnell and others have talked about a rider. if it were between jeff sessions and roy moore, who would you rather serve with? >> there's a great candidate on the democratic line i support. >> from a republican standpoint because we know obviously the republican is a front-runner. >> if i could choose a write-in, i would choose luther strange. >> you would not support jeff sessions. >> just gave you my answer. >> would you want moore to be seated? i would vote against it. >> can you talk about your justice military act? how will it work to reduce or
8:06 am
eliminate sexual assaults? >> the problem is every secretary of defense has had zero tolerance for sexual assault in the mill tai, but last year there were over 15,000 cases estimated. what we have is a huge problem where survivors don't necessarily feel comfortable coming forward because last year 59% who did were reported to have rebeen retaliated against for doing so. we don't want the commanders making a decision which cases go forward to trial and which don't because those commanders are neither lawyers nor prosecutors nor trained and they'll have biases. the way the bill is written is we want the decision to be made by trained military prosecutors who have no bias and can make a decision based on what the evidence says. what we have is very few cases are going to trial, fewer are ending in conviction. the conviction rate and prosecution rate has gone down. it's a problem. we need
8:07 am
of the sacrifices. >> you and senator claire mccaskill are on the same page? >> senator mccaskill and i have put forward dozens of laws that have passed but they have dented the problem. they're incremental reform, they haven't made a difference in how many people are willing to come forward and how many people are willing to have their cases be prosecuted and how many cases will be prosecuted. and so what we need to do is have a system that is more professional, one where people can have faith in the system. today they have less faith in the system. the percentage of people reporting openly have gone down. we need that to go up and we need the number of cases actually going to trial and ending in conviction to go up. we're going in the wrong direction. >> all right. senator jill brand, always good to see you. thank you so much for taking the time this morning. >> thank you. a substance that's being called

8:16 am
>> five states have already banned kratom and the fda wants to keep the drug out of the u.s. entirely, but a group of more than 3 million kratom users are calling to rescind the warning claiming the science behind it is weak and some researchers say the active ingredients within kratom might be used to develop a drug that would help people some day. >> good on that mother for issuing the warning. actor, producer, and director tyler perry said his new book is a spiritual guide for everyone. ahead, the entertainment mogul joins us to explain hor his family and other experiences in his life influenced the book. plus a multi-story building is about to share every story from the bible. >> i'm chip reid in washington where they're putting the finishing touches on washington's new museum. it's a half a million dollar

8:33 am
this is a historic campus. i mean president lincoln signed gallaudet's original charter in 1864, while the civil war raged on. recently this private university has been integrating students with diverse life experiences, and the football team really symbolizes that. i mean this is a story about the power of communication. >> whatever happens, you don't stop believing today. >> reporter: football is equal parts passion, dedication, and teamwork. but this game day feels different and quieter than most. the cheerleaders perform the national anthem with no music and no singing, just hand gestures signaling that "our flag was still there." >> one, two, three, go! >> reporter: and with that, the gallaudet university bison -- america's deaf team, as they call themselves -- take on the anna maria amcats.

8:35 am
rashard witherspoon had a tough time seeing eye to eye. >> e >> i'm not gonna lie. team chemistry was hard. >> reporter: the chemistry? >> it's, like, hard to communicate with each other, 'cause some players on the team don't know sign. >> reporter: half of the players are deaf. others are hard of hearing. and to have enough players to compete, each year, coach goldstein integrates into the team a few mainstream hearing athletes. >> our recruiting pool is limited. it's limited. so it's kind of a struggle. we have people who are looking online every day for a deaf, hard-of-hearing athlete. go and google. try. >> reporter: that's how they find players like taylor -- a defensive standout from hampton, virginia, where sports are a religion. but taylor thought he had blown his chance to play college ball. >> it didn't work out. like, no scholarships after senior year. dumb mistakes, partying, distracted, s.
8:36 am
>> reporter: then, he got an opportunity to join the bison. >> so how i fell in love on my visit, it was like deaf people, they knew i couldn't sign, but they still accepted me. >> reporter: it was an unfamiliar feeling for taylor, whose mother died when he was in the seventh grade. he spent his teenage years bouncing around different friends' homes. now a junior, sign language comes as easily to taylor as football. gallaudet was a shot at redemption. and now you're going to graduate, you're going to have a degree. >> really it helped me become a man. where i'm from is, like, a bad area. jail, dead, or you sell drugs, honestly. so when gallaudet, like, gave me a chance to like play football, i was like, "i'm not, like, risking it again. i'm not." >> reporter: these roommates are a testament to the power of communicating without saying a word. why are you guys coming from
8:37 am
your different backgrounds able to come together and communicate and succeed? >> because we have patience with each other. >> reporter: patience. >> and, you know, we're willing to slow things down. >> we just became close. >> yeah. >> became brothers. like, we was brothers on the football team, but like now, us three just different. we could understand each other without, like, not saying nothing. >> reporter: today about 12% of gallaudet students can hear. the school will likely have to continue blending these communities and redefining itself without sacrificing its identity. how? maybe the football team can help pave the way. gayle? >> all right, jan. that sounds like a movie to me. i wonder if there's anyone in the green room who knows anything about making movies. thgreat story.
