we are not giving up in louisiana. in this year i'm excited about two pieces of legislation i've always secured sponsors for one is a bill that was strengthened voter id laws it a bit on the book since 1997. and ironically let you know that was the clinton administration's department of justiceus that approved our voter id laws we had to have legislation approved by the department of justice. i believe that skull preclearance. for those that are registering to vote online, we are going to require them to utilize additional efforts to prove citizenship. i'm prouder among first states to adopt online voter registration. equally proud we are always looking for ways to make sure nobody can take advantage of that system. secondly i'll be pursuing an memo to our state constitution that will ban any municipality or local governing authority in louisiana for noncitizens to vote in an election. what happened in new york just a few weeks ago is an affront to election integrity and we cannot that happen. the best part of this pro

how is it possible that louisiana -- members of louisiana as senate signed a law where they did not evenmiss davis's position could actually get an abortion of medically needed? >> exactly joy reid, and that is why we are calling on the governor and the legislator leadership of louisiana to have a special session to clear up these vague and ambiguous laws that don't leave doctors with the direction that they will lose the medical license or whether they will be in prison for 15 years. it is so inhumane that nancy davis would have to carry this baby just to bury this baby. >> miss davis, just to be clear, if you were to have to go through with this pregnancy to term, wouldn't that risk your life as well? >> possibly, yes ma'am. with any pregnancy you carry to term is a risk. >> absolutely. >> whether the baby is completely normal or not. >> and you wanted to be pregnant, this was a wanted pregnancy? >> oh of course. yes ma'am, i was elated to be pregnant. you know, it's something we planned and we accomplished, and then that news was very devastating. >> are you going to be able to contin

just ten weeks into her pregnancy, a louisiana woman was told there was no way her unborn child couldrtion doctors said she needs. instead she'll have to wait and travel hundreds of miles to get help. cnn's dianne gallagher has her story. >> reporter: nancy davis found out last month that her unborn child would not survive. at the ten-week ultrasound, doctors diagnosed the fetus with something called acrania, it is a rare lethal birth defect in which the skull does not form in the womb. doctors recommend that she get an abortion but then told her she'd probably are have to go out of state because they did not believe they could perform it in louisiana due to the state's new near total ban on abortion. acrane ya was not listed as one of the narrow exceptions to that law. now, in the weeks since, nancy davis went public, lawmakers have said acaania even though not listed should fall underneath the medically futile exception. doctors say this is where the problem is with the law and many of the other laws around the country since roe versus wade was overturned claiming they are vague and

watch what happens into louisiana, parts of mississippi. when you look at this setup of the rain, it is almost identical to what happened a few weeks ago with historic flooding from st. louis into eastern kentucky and we all saw that damage. it is a stationary front and not moving. we have copious amounts of atmospheric moisture coming in from the gulf and it's riding into that front. when that moisture hits that front, it triggers thunderstorm after thunderstorm moving over the same area. now the concern still in dallas, then over toward tyler, areas to the east, but watch it move across louisiana, parts of southern half of arkansas and in toward mississippi. this is going to continue to be a problem not just in dallas for the afternoon or additional rainfall but what now could happen in the next day or two as the computer models that were accurate yesterday are dropping incredible amounts, another 8, 9, 10 inches in central louisiana heading towards central mississippi. >> we know louisiana is prone to flooding as well. thank you so much.

this comes after a baton rouge resident who was 10 weeks pregnant was denied an abortion at a louisianaospital, even though an ultrasound showed her fetus was developing without a skull. the condition, known as "acrania," does not appear on a list of accepted conditions for an abortion in louisiana. a warning to our audience, our next story contains graphic footage and descriptions of police violence. in arkansas, two crawford county sheriff's deputies and a mulberry city police officer have been suspended after they were caught on camera brutally beating a man as they pressed him face-first into the pavement. video posted to social media shows one officer holding the man down as two others repeatedly kick and punch him. at one point, one of the officers is seen slamming the man's face into the pavement. 27-year-old randal worcester was taken to a hospital with head injuries after his violent arrest, where he refused treatment. the arkansas state police said sunday it has launched an investigation. in labor news, nearly 2000 dockworkers at britain's largest container port began an eight

david there in louisiana. another call from louisiana, this is brenda.r: hi, i am unsatisfied with the teacher shortage, real bad in louisiana. also, they are just taking people off of the streets to put them in the class to try to educate our children. i do not feel it is fair to the parents and the children. the teachers' pay sucks. the whole system, not just the teachers, also the maintenance, cafeteria workers, the pay sucks. they make sure, the democratics and republicans, that they are paid good, but it is hard to try to maintain a family of four on $1000 a month. in the way it is paid monthly, that does not make any sense. you are getting all types of children -- all kinds of mental problems. the children, they are coming in outraged. they are taking it out on the teachers. they are lacking to learn. there is not enough electives. i can understand reading, english, and math is sufficient, but then you should have more electives in the middle of all of that to kind of give the brain time to breathe. so i think that the democratics and republicans r

so he did the solution in louisiana came back.the came back however without giving the whites the vote for black. many blacks decided they were going to change that constitution. that convention was set upon by the police. the police came and killed everyone they could in that room. they are and so were several other economy members. lou sheehan was there think his son was nine or ten years old. they stabbed the boy, they shot out his. the shot cap low, he was almost killed when his train to come out of the building people trying to get out of the building because they're cornered. he was almost killed but they grabbed the man in front of him when he's coming out of the door and killed him so he was able to run away. kaplan made a statement he said that the floor was slippery with blood. so the things i wanted to mention i'm glad you brought this up please history, we think that right now everything we do is new, right? and it is not. these men were fighting for voter rights for broder registration was going on at the economy haul

we're talking mississippi and louisiana. the key thing here is the timeline. when you move that timeline up by 24 hours, that limits the time the folks have to evacuate, to get out before that water level gets too high. here's where the current flood warnings are. focused across mississippi as well as louisiana, this is a look at the pearl river, current level is 35.16 feet. it is forecast to get to 36 feet, which does bring it into that major flood stage. that's where we expect it to crest, by tomorrow morning. so you're talking less than 24 hours from now. in addition to that, that's regardless of whether we get any additional rain. we do have rain in the forecast. again, we're not talking 6 to 10 inches of widespread rain. but there will be several areas of pop-up showers and thunderstorms along the gulf coast. the heaviest will be focused across florida, but, again, notice these areas of mississippi, eastern texas, louisiana, still looking at 1 to 3 inches of additional rainfall possible. we also have still some areas of severe thunderstorms and flooding p
