Hi everyone,

 

The House of Representatives this afternoon failed to override President
Bush's veto of the funding bill for Iraq that would have started
withdrawing troops by October 1. So what's next? While House Speaker
Nancy Pelosi has said Democrats will work with the White House to strike
a deal, but she's also said "there is a great distance between us right
now." Jim Axelrod will have the latest on the stalemate and David Martin
will report on the benchmarks that may be discussed for Iraq.

 

Yesterday's immigration rallies across the United States were smaller
than last year's, but more than just harsh words were exchanged at some
of the protests. In Los Angeles, protesters scuffled with police, who
fired rubber cartridges and used batons against the crowd. Bill Whitaker
will more on the backlash from the clashes.

 

In medical news, a soon-to-be released study shows an alarming number of
American children go without basic health care. Sharyl Attkisson will
have details.

 

The role of peacekeepers in Darfur is changing, as our Allen Pizzey will
report from the Sudan. He'll have a story about the flow of funding and
the growing threat of militias against both cities and refugee camps
there. 

 

More than 100 journalists have died reporting on the war in Iraq, and
now a memorial is being dedicated to these journalists and other members
of the press killed in the line of duty since 1944, Richard Roth will
report. The memorial site: Normandy, which of course was the first part
of France liberated by allied forces in World War II.

 

And Barry Petersen will have a story on what American parents can learn
from the Chinese about how to treat Internet addiction in children.

 

I hope you'll join us.
