springfield, illinois, is a foreshadowing of what not to do. basically we need to look at the fiscal situation in springfield, illinois, and look at it like a big, big traffic signal that says, don't come here, don't go this route, don't take this pathway. instead, go another direction, and the direction we need to go is the direction that the chairman is has articulated and i think a majority is going to vote for tomorrow. it's a pathway that says, let's look clearly at these difficulties, let's articulate them clearly, let's be clear-eyed about what they are and let's make decisions. so what does this budget do? the budget repeals obamacare and makes way for a patient-centered approach on health care that our constituencies are calling out for. it says that we're going to empower states to make decisions. it says we're going to keep promises that are going to be made. not false promises, not telling folks something is going to be there and assuming there is going to be some pixie dust that makes things go away. no, these problems are going to

eventually springfield and st. louis. this is a jog further south to arkansas. storms so far have been weak. we haven't seen as much in the way of powerful storms. the storms have the potential to form tornadoes well into the evening and over the next few days. the severe weather will continue for the next couple of days. >> thank you. we are going to check in later in the show. now we turn to mike seidel who is live for us in north little rock, arkansas. i know you guys had some storm there is before sunrise. what have you seen since? >> so far we have had little, if anything. we have an overcast sky looking south and west. that's the direction the storms will come from. there is a cap on the development. we expect ta to break as we go through this afternoon. we are under a tornado watch. most of the state of arkansas until 9:00 this evening. some of the storms could produce tornadoes. they could be strong meaning ef-3 or higher. remember the top end scale ranking of 3 is 150 miles an hour. we have been fortunate so far all year. we have had just over a hundred

because springfield has police and citizens that can carry concealed weapons. the other county you can't. the issue you brought up and dodged - to be honest with you - is that you can easily sneak weapons in. once you are in, there's virtually nobody who is armed except for a handful of security guards, except for the military police officer. i'm not diminishing the role of the female military police officer who took him down, she's very much a hero. it's more likely someone like the soldier would be successful, this lopez would be successful because there's no weapons to stop him. this was the problem with miguel hassam, and a problem in the future. this is something i had to deal with as an anti-terrorism force officer. parts of military installations are isolated, you can't get security forces too, so a shooter in this case would be successful in killing people. i would argue four dead is more than should be allowed to be think as acceptable as the general said. i take exception to that very issue. >> what has changed on military posts since miing eel hassam

and springfield. that's at 6:00 tonight.ust because the sun sets doesn't mean the storms will end. in fact, these storms will continue into tonight and tomorrow. where are we talking about for the greatest risk of severe weather -- here's the bullseye. southern missouri through arkansas, northern louisiana as well, strong winds, large golf ball sized hail as well as the potential for some tornados. we've only had 25 tornados this year. we could easily double that amount in the next couple days. national weather and a look at your local weather coming up. bian bianna? >>> we're going to turn, now, to history being made at the vatican this morning in front of a million pilgrims for a joint canonization for pope john paul ii and pope john xxiii. not only has the elevation of two popes to saint hood never happened before, but it's the first time two popes were there to witness it. abc's terry moran has the story from vatican city. good morning to you, terry. >> reporter: good morning, bianna, the day of four popes they're callin

as far as tornadoes go, the cities at most risk, springfield to joplin to fort smith.here the storms form around 5:00, racing to the east-northeast this evening. watching them head for little rock and south of st. louis crossing the ozarks and late tonight, after dark, the memphis area we're watching carefully, into paducah and the problem with late-night tornadoes, the storm chasers can't see them. it's dark out. not a lot of heads up. you hear tornado sirings and have to get to safety, assume the worst, hope for the best. we know how horrible this winter was. so cold and snowy. we've had very few serious tornadoes so far this year. only 70 total. typically about 250 at this point. now that winter is officially over, now it looks like we're going into our tornado season. tonight's the first threat. >> those statistics mean nothing if in bed and hear the sirens going off. >> scary for your family and kids. get them to shelters. that's will be happening tonight, thanks so much, bill karins. >>> a powerful aftershock rattling northern chile triggering another round of ts

we can make progress which we've made but we're not going to fix this problem without help from springfield much of a problem do you think lax gun control is? >> it's a huge problem. definitely in a community that's -- that lives in poverty, they definitely don't need guns because that's the only solution to everything that goes on in that community. when the community doesn't have jobs or investment of anything -- especially for its young people, then a gun is exciting powerful and then you make it easy for them to get it. really? i mean, that's -- i'm just saying, it's all crazy to me. and the gangs are there but they are not the main source of the violence. they are a family but a negative family. young people flock to them. yet there isn't anything else around resources and i don't give the young people a pass because a lot of people are poor and live impoverished, nobody is investing into them so they can choose something above a gun. >> diane, one year ago this very month michelle obama spoke at an event on youth violence in chicago, speaking to many of the same themes you're talking

all the way back down to springfield, missouri we're seeing storms. every one of these storms, john, tonight could get stronger. each one of them, if it's all by itself it's called a supercell thunderstorm. not when they line up but when they become a supercell thunderstorm they could rotate enough to put down a tornado. the most dangerous tornadoes are the ones that happen when you're sleeping. >> chad, you said each one of these storms could get stronger. is this situation going to continue throughout the night? >> without a doubt, each one of these storms because we're waiting. i'm almost down to texas here. this is now oklahoma. every storm tonight could get bigger because the energy from the west, over near amarillo right now, is coming into these storms. if these storms get more vigorous with that cold air aloft, think about this. if you have a hot air balloon and you put more air in it it's going to go higher faster. but if you have the same hot air balloon but make the air above it colder, it's also going to go up faster. that's what this ener
