00:01:34,333 --> 00:01:36,400 I assume they're going to roll them all the way back. 26 00:01:36,400 --> 00:01:37,966 I can't say with specificity. 27 00:01:37,966 --> 00:01:40,433 But that's got to be part of the deal. 28 00:01:40,433 --> 00:01:42,533 We know that. 29 00:01:42,533 --> 00:01:46,400 See, here's a case where actions speak louder than words, so we will be monitoring everything. 30

the government will 45 00:02:48,900 --> 00:02:52,666 see reason and suspend this law for now, so we can discuss it and work together to find 46 00:02:52,666 --> 00:02:54,966 new solutions which will satisfy everyone. 47 00:02:54,966 --> 00:02:59,933 But, today, no one is satisfied, not us, not the government, not our patients, nor our 48 00:03:01,033 --> 00:03:03,566 employees. 49 00:03:03,566

00:03:57,266 --> 00:04:02,233 of global scale, our greatest threat in thousands of years, climate change. 64 00:04:06,933 --> 00:04:11,933 If we don't take action, the collapse of our civilizations and the extinction of much of 65 00:04:14,800 --> 00:04:18,566 the natural world is on the horizon. 66 00:04:18,566 --> 00:04:22,400 The world's people have spoken. 67 00:04:22,400 --> 00:04:25,500 Their message is clear. 68 00:04:25,500 --> 00:04:27,566 Time is running out. 69 00:04:27,566 --> 00:04:31,700 AMNA NAWAZ: The conference is supposed to hammer out rules to put the Paris accord into 70 00:04:31,700 --> 00:04:33,733 practice. 71 00:04:33,733 --> 00:04:36,966 Last year, President Trump withdrew the United States from the agreement. 72 00:04:36,966 --> 00:04:41,633 Back in this

back for the first time since November 8, when the firestorm destroyed eight schools 75 00:04:49,466 --> 00:04:51,466 and thousands of homes. 76 00:04:51,466 --> 00:04:53,166 TIM TAYLOR, Superintendent of Schools, Butte County: I thought today the most courageous 77 00:04:53,166 --> 00:04:55,500 and brave people were the parents and students. 78 00:04:55,500 --> 00:05:00,266 Just when they came out of that car and they were walking down the street, to watch those 79 00:05:00,266 --> 00:05:05,200 parents get their children up this morning, get those kids ready for school, and to deal 80 00:05:07,100 --> 00:05:10,133 with all the emotions they dealt with is as equal to everyone else working hard to help 81 00:05:10,133 --> 00:05:12,066 us. 82 00:05:12,066 --> 00:05:15,033 AMNA

OSIRIS-REx chased down the asteroid Bennu today after a two-year 85 00:05:24,633 --> 00:05:26,566 pursuit. 86 00:05:26,566 --> 00:05:29,666 It aims to be the first American craft to bring back asteroid samples, something only 87 00:05:29,666 --> 00:05:31,700 Japan has done. 88 00:05:31,700 --> 00:05:35,333 The robot explorer will enter orbit later this month, and shadow the space rock for 89 00:05:35,333 --> 00:05:36,833 a year. 90 00:05:36,833 --> 00:05:41,333 Then, it will scoop up gravel and return to Earth in 2023. 91 00:05:43,200 --> 00:05:46,500 Still to come on the "NewsHour": the nation reflects on the life of George H.W. Bush; 92 00:05:48,533 --> 00:05:52,700 what we know about a new trade deal with China; how a small Kentucky town's economy is moving 93 00:05:54,633 --> 00:05:58,700 from coal to health care; plus, our Politics Monday explores the political legacy of the 94 00:06:00,100 --> 00:06:00,900 41st president.
