shows a staggering rise of cases. the highest in red states. in cobb county, the virus is spreading a gres sieving. >> we're in that high spread -- we as an organization cannot add to the transmission rate increasing. >> parents opinions vary by zip code and if they can afford child care or private tutoring. 43% of gwinnett county parents want all in classroom learn and over half of them would be uncomfortable with that. in the urban core, parents in the south and west -- were likely to prefer virtual learning. it's a preference often based on personal experience. >> i have tended to covid-related funerals recently. it's happening. even if it's not happening to you, it's happening. it's terrifying.

until july 31st. republicans and the white house have been going back and forth about how they ix tend that. they want to move to a system that replaces specifically the wages of workers losing up to 70% and not just a one size fits all payment. take a listen. >> we're not going to use taxpayer money to pay people more to stay home. we're going to transition to a ui system based upon wanl -- we've talked about 70% wanl replacement and we're going through the mechanics of that. >> initially, senate republicans wanted to unveil this on thursday. now an aide said that will be monday at the earliest. this is just the opening offer. the hard part will be when they take it to the democrats to get

to a bipartisan agreement that could pass the house and the senate. democrats have said they want something in the neighborhood of -- republicans are looking at something closer to $1 trillion. they're far apart. that means congress is a long way away, relatively speaking from passing a stimulus bill if there are disagreements just among republicans right now. >> go ahead, abby. i apologize. >> sarah, thank you for that. it's also notable, saturday is august 1st. rent is due. while they wait a couple of weeks, the country is waiting for leadership on that issue. let's take you to seattle now where at least 45 people were arrested yesterday after demonstrations turned violent. >> yeah. so there were about 1 thousand people who showed up to support protesters in portland. police say the people here threw glen oaks and bottles fanned --

hurricane near padre island in texas. it is one of three separate storm system threatening the u.s. and caribbean over the weekend. cnn's allison chinchar is in the weather center with the latest. what are we seeing down in texas with this storm? >> even though it's been downgraded, it's not gone away. we have plenty of rain to get from this storm. here you can see the live radar. look at all of this moisture being funneled in across south texas and areas of louisiana too. you still have a lot more rain to go, which is not a good thing given how much rain has fallen. widespread locations picked up 6 inches of rain. you have a couple of locations with over a foot. you have an additional 2 to 4 inches of rain to fall in some of these locations. it wasn't just rain. it was gusty winds. several places reporting those hurricane strength winds and even tropical storm.

corp. urs chrisris -- corpus ch picking up winds. you have 250,000 people without power in the state of texas. it's going to be slow to get that power back on because the storm isn't done. it will eventually continue to push into portions of mexico today. but as we showed you, the rain bands are still there. they'll stay there for several more hours. again, notice through much of day, you have a lots more rain to go before it clears out. in addition to rain and gusty winds, you have the potential for waterspouts as well as tornadoes. we're also keeping an eye on another system, this is hurricane douglas heading fords hawaii. winds are 90 miles per hour. similar to hanna yesterday. moving west, northwest at 16 miles per hour. you have hurricane warnings and tropical storm warnings in place for this storm. storm surge, rip current, a lot of that is going to be the main focus, victor and abby, with this particular storm. you will also have heavy rain bands pushing in through the

your coast and the ongoing coronavirus situation? >> well, i guess the good news is we did not have to evacuate, which would have been a nightmare in trying to deal with evacuating the people with covid because of icu kins and all of that. we're very grateful that everything got to stay in place. we did urge people if they did have to move to higher ground, did with family members in anticipation the storm, they make sure they take masks and even wear them while in the house if they had a crowded condition where two families were going together to ride out the storm. i think we're pretty good. a lot of the city lost power. a lot of hospitals have backup generators. to my nonl, we didn't have a significant amount of damage and

emergencies, i don't know that we had any additional demand to deal with hurricane victims that could continue to focus on the people with the normal hospital patients and the people with covid. that was the good news as far as hospitals go. we did close down obviously our testing facilities and probably won't start those back up until, i think they rescheduled them originally for tuesday. i think probably today when the sun comes up and we do an assessment of where we are following the storm, once the sun comes out, if it's not too bad, they can get their people back together, they may start them back on monday. but right now, they're going to resume testing on tuesday. that's the plan. we're just kind of waiting and see. it's 5:15, 5:30 here. we haven't had a chance to assessment damage ear than what

the shoreline, ramp that you would get from the parking lot up to the pier, that was also -- had the concrete knocked out from under it because of the wave action. that was probably -- like i said, i haven't seen -- an opportunity to go around. from the reports, that seems to be the biggest surprise an the large he's piece of damage we had because it survived harvey and a lot of other big storms. but the surge got it this time. >> we're grateful that there have been no other injuries that we know of so far. we wish you and the people of corpus slis i. mayor thank you for joining us. >> thank you very much. appreciate it. for decades, we laughed at some of his jokes and he was in our living rooms and then the big hit with who wants to be a

we heard from the current host of the program. of course, regis co-hosted with kelly ripa for many years. he left that program in 2011. went out on top about a decade ago. now that program is co-hosted by ryan see crest. they said we are beyond saddened chld. he was the ultimate class act bringing laughter and joy into our homes for more than 23 years. we were beyond look i to have him as a mentor in our careers and inspire every day to fill his shoes on the show. kelly and ryan conclude to say, we send our deepest love and condolences to their family and hope they can find comfort in knowing he left the world a better place. that's a statement from the current hosts of that program. it's a testament to reg, i want to call him reg still. to regis philbin's career and success that i turn on the tv at 9:00 a.m. and think he's going to be there.

they opted to sit out to focus on initiatives, including one of the biggest stars, maya moore who is doing so for a second straight season. this is, as you said, nothing new to the players. the wnba, holding a 26-second moment of silence. she was 26 years old. her name will be on every jersey as part of the say her name campaign. there you have the new york liberty and the seattle storm as the anthem played they walked off the -- this is not a political issue. it's a human issue. >> it's about honoring breonna taylor's life and about bringing awareness to the fact that her murderers have not been brought to justice. >> this is an evolution for many. for us, i feel our evolution has to do with the eyes and the ears on us and the figures that could

help us be progressive and we express ourselves from powerful women on the court. >> for the games, here's the first pro bucket of number one overall pick by the new york liberty, sabrina ionescu. she shot over 25% in an 87-71 loss to the storm. play of the day to l.a. sparks star brittany sykes. get out of her. 6'9", britney sykes. >> doing something not since february. they're holding a championship. the chicago red -- holding the game from their bubble in u tachlt the u.s. pro team sports league to return to action last month at nws -- it's going to

help leagues. no reported positive tests during the tournament. rockies pitcher daniel barnes hasn't pitched in more than seven years battling a case of the yips. he got a win against the rangers yesterday in his home state. coming in, in relief in the 5th. giving the rockies the first win of the season. his manager said he walked off the mound and said, that was fun. daniel bard, welcome back. here we go. the first cardboard calamity. adam duvall hitting a rocket into a canine cutout. oh, this is the mets one-year-old doggie. the daughter of our jet macneal. dodgers will smith, nearly

decapitated this poor cutout during the ninth inning of their loss to the giants. that left a serious mark. now victor, abby, i, too, have my cardboard cutout. i'm a huge fan. as you see, i ran out of ink. i need more printer ink. >> you need more ink. >> thank you, coy. >> as we watch cases and deaths spike nationwide, we're seeing a massive push to get kids back in the classroom. >> when you talk about forcing teachers to come back to school, you better be careful about that. >> many days of good-byes for former civil rights icon and congressman john lewis. >> thank you merciful
