have you ever seen massachusetts look like this? >> not recently. >> never. >> northbound, this is a police officer driving by. northbound massachusetts avenue, we have that shut down. that closure started around 9:00 a.m. this morning. that's going to last until about 4:00 p.m. on wednesday when he flies out of town. so, again, shut down through wednesday right there in front of the nunrciature here. you might be searched if heading southbound on massachusetts avenue in front of the naval observatory. traffic allowed only from 34th street to waterside drive. as far as alternates, if you need to use mass, here are things to do. q. street, rock creek parkway, garfield or wisconsin avenue. any of these will work for you. again, to kind of recap, the pope came out of joint base andrews, an 18-while ride from joint base andrews into north sw northwest washington in front of the nunciature. branch avenue, avoid that spot. looking at the beltway of branch avenue a while ago. that obviously is not the shot. it was looking pretty typical. n

one, in my section of massachusetts, western massachusetts there is this uprising of farmers, really only 1800 guys who don't when to pay their mortgage and they want to vent that against boston. boston has always treated western massachusetts as a colony, they -- the whole water supply is like that. this is not manipulated, the serious crisis, madison thinks it is a conspiracy by the british coming down from canada to take over new england and blown out of proportion. and the need for reform becomes plausible again. the other thing, to join the team. >> they send this to congress under the articles of confederation. maybe they agreed for the convention. >> they replaced the articles the convention is charged with reforming the articles. they need to do something, coordinated foreign policy, massachusetts has its own policy. adams is over there as ambassador to the court of st. james, no one believes i can represent anybody because you don't have central government for me to represent. so yes, we clearly need to do something to reform the articles. there won't be a consensus about ho

southbound traffic will be permitted on massachusetts avenue. no trucks allowed to come through here and if you do drive through here in your car, all vehicles are subject to search. now, let's look at mass avenue right now. the roads still open, a lot of traffic still coming through here. when you need to know, though, is that road closures once they go in place will be in effect for the entire three days that the pope is here. there will also be parking restrictions in this area. important to take these closures day by day because the pope doesn't even land at joint base andrews until about 4:00 this afternoon. then, he'll make his way here, which likely means rolling closures and motorcade along places like the suitland parkway and the southeast/southwest freeway. massachusetts avenue and northwest still open, closures expected to start around 9:00 this morning. metro knows it had a bad day yesterday. they're putting all hands on deck from this point forward. back to you. >>> good morning. i'm landon dowdy. hillary clinton will propose a plan

massachusetts is one of five states with less than 5% uninsured. we have significantly expanded customer service components for this fall's open enrollment period with 200 additional customer service hours, including evenings and weekends so that users may update their applications and not need to call the call center. massachusetts believe that states need flexibility to continue to innovate health care. we could not provide to the low income populations without the flexibility of the marketplace. for example, our program which had subsidies for those earning less than 3% of the poverty level. we recognize the definition of small business size. going forward, there are potentially more seamless ways to integrate a medicare and subsidies. it is important that states be offered the chance to make this haw work better for everyone. massachusetts remains committed to make sure that those who need insurance can obtain it both now and in the future with the state-based market mace as one component of that strategy. thank you. thank you, mr. gutierrez. n

i'm standing live in the middle of massachusetts avenue. it doesn't happen very often but the northbound lanes have obviously been closed to traffic because crews -- lots of activity. crews are setting up a security check point here. they're beginning to close down many ever the roads in the area. we've seen about a dozen secret service agents. of course d.c. police here as well. i've even talked to some security agents who came down from texas. an all hands on deck effort for pope francis. let's take a look at the behind- the-scenes action for you as heavy equipment moved into massachusetts avenue turning embassy row into a construction site. barricades moved in place as crews work to shut down portions of 34th street alongside the embassy and the cones that had once blocked off traffic gave way to cement jersey barriers. i'm told those weigh about 6,000 pounds a piece. those barriers will be set up along the curbs and sidewalks. >> 6,000 pounds right here. you don't got to drive, i hope that you wouldn't drive. but if you're going to be d

stay off of massachusetts avenue -- not quite. there we go. and right around the vatican embassy and the naval observatory. the pope gets in, he'll be going to the embassy here, 34th street, also going to be a road you want to avoid in northwest because this is where the embassy is and where pope francis will be when he's not out in the city. you might also want to avoid wisconsin avenue, which could be closed at different points as well. the vatican officials and security, they're not telling us exactly what route the pope will take tonight, so it is best to just stay away if you can. >> thank you, aaron. >>> looking ahead to tomorrow, the 95 express lanes in virginia will change for the pope's visit on wednesday and thursday. the lanes will reverse direction an hour earlier. the northbound will switch to southbound starting at 10:00 a.m. instead of the usual 11:00 a.m. the southbound express lanes will open at noon instead of 1:00 p.m. the express lanes will be back to normal on friday. you can expect a lot of extra tour buses and more pedes

they have blocked off massachusetts avenue. this is the place the pope has called home for the past couple of days. he has attracted quite a crowd everywhere he is gone. perhaps the most fortunate of all of the people are those who have been invited -- and most of them schoolchildren. on the front lawn of the embassy and get an up close look as the pope comes and goes. a group of six students and their teachers and bishop that the mayor high school got the thrill of their lives when pope francis shook their hands. young people pulled out their phones and took some video. they shared some of their videos with us. it was very emotional. a once-in-a-lifetime experience that you get. not many people get that opportunity. it was very cool. >> you will never have that ever again. you probably might not be that close. horace: did you get to shake his hand? >> i did. his hands are really soft. [laughter] horace: i learned something today. a pope's hands are very soft. we are expecting him at any moment. we talked about schoolchildren.

so even though you see traffic here on massachusetts avenue now starting at 9:00 a.m.bound massachusetts avenue will shut down for that secret service security sweep and then both lanes of massachusetts avenue next to the vatican embassy will be shut down when the pope arrives. so certainly you can expect wherever the pope is around d.c., expect crowds and lots of road closures. so your best way to get around is using metro. let's take a look at some video. yesterday on metro was not a good day. an all out meltdown a lot of folks said. hundreds of people delayed during the morning commute. they were forced to wait for shuttle buses after the stadium armory station was shut down. it took metro nearly ten hours to fix the problem and resume normal service. still metro's new g.m. says they are prepared. they've been preparing for several weeks. so the plan is to run extra rush hour trains, use shuttle buses, and this is key. they're going to have plenty of metro employees around to help riders navigate the system and changes because a lot of the folks who will be travelin
