with me tonight, the actors filmmakers producers. look around, ladies and gentlemen, because we all have stories to tell. >> reporter: on a night when it took a visible stand for vulnerability, three of harvey weinstein's accusers were invited to address a global audience. >> the changes we are witnessing are being driven by the powerful sound of new voices joining together in a mighty chorus that is finally saying time's up. >> reporter: weinstein contends all of his sexual encounters were consensual. jimmy kimmel was among those who said sexual harassment in hollywood must stop. >> if we can do that women will only have to deal with sexual harassment all the time every other place they go. >> reporter: rachel morrison was nominated in the cinema

photographer category. emma stone gave a similar nod to the first female nominated for best director in eight years. >> these four men and gerwig created their own masterpieces this year. >> reporter: while neither woman won the honor at least the correct nominations were mentioned. >> la-la land. >> it's so nice seeing you again. >> to make amends they returned to present the best picture, but producer director guillermo del toro just had to make sure. >> may i have this? now, in light of hollywood's ent scandals many eyes w red carpet before the broadcast and ryan seacrest's coverage for

entertainment. it's reported that a number of including all the best actress nominees walked past seacrest. gayle? >> all right. let me understand this.cdormand ended her speech with something c clusion rider. what does thatan? >> gayle that's bhiet down. about it backstage. she said it's something anyone. it's a demand for50% diversity. it's a demand she hopes everyone will startg that' . thank you, keven. make sure yo watch entertainment tonight"" this evening for the full oscar wrap-up. you need to check your local listings on that. president trump says he will go through on his plan to add tariffs to and aluminum imports. he tweeted, our steel and aluminum industries are dead. sorry. it's time for a change. chip reid is at the white house where some of his most important

allies say he is wrong on this issue. good morning. >> reporter: good morning. as we have reported there has been considerable chaos inside the white house recently and one reason is the big battle of tariffs. they all oppose the move but his top trade advisers are pushing him to follow through. >> imports are coming in and putting our aluminum companies out of business and our steel companies out of business. >> we can't continue to allow china to rape our country. >> reporter: the president has long criticized china, the world's biggest steel producer who he says is putting u.s. manufacturers out of business. but the penalties the president plans to impose as early as this week would primarily hit long-time u.s. allies. china would not be greatly affected as it accounts for just

2% imports. lindsey graham says they're misguided. >> you're making a huge mistake here. go after china, not the rest of the world. >> reporter: british prime minister theresa may called mr. trump yesterday morning to voice her deep concern with the move and the european union said it would retaliate with its own tariffs on harley-davidson and on bourbon made in kentucky senator mitch mcconnell's state. that could increase prices and put jobs in jeopardy. the. >> that's a fraction of 1% of the economy. so the notion that it would destroy a lot of jobs, raise prices, disrupt things is wrong. >> reporter: some in the administration is arguing that what the president should do is instead of imposing a broad tariff, target china directly. bianna, no surprise.

the president is already tweeting the president this morning. tariffs will come off only if a new and fair nafta agreement is signed. bianna? >> getting a lot of pushback from our allies and some of his closest advisers. thank you. south korea's government sent officials to north korea korea this sunday to resume talks aimed at lowering risks at war. president trump revealed that north korea has reached out to the u.s. about a meeting. he said he told the north that the goal of any talks is quote, you have to denuke. but the president also said we will be meeting and will see if anything positive happens. in a statement north korea called the president's demands preposterous. south korea says it wants to perseid the u.s. to talk correctly with the north. >> president trump also hosted a closed door fund-raiser over the weekend. in an audio recording mr. trump appeared to be choking when he

praised chinese president xi jinping for pushing abolishing term limits. >> that he's able to do that i think that's great. maybe we'll have to give that a shot one day. >> that's a joke. he's expected to be granted broad new powers by cha na's national peoples congress which kicked off its annual session today. ben tracy, good morning. >> reporter: good morning. for more than two decades, china's presidents have been able to serve two five-year terms. apparently president xi jinping would like to stick around longer than that and china's peoples congress may grant his wish. these delegates are the needed rubber stamp that xi jinping needs to remain president for more than two terms. there are more than 3,000

delegates and theoretically they can vote anyway they want but they have never vetoed a proposal in china's communist party. xi is already considered the most powerful chinese leader sit mao. this delegate to the people's congress told me she thinks he should be president forever. >> translator: he does good things for the people and makes the country prosperous and strong. they temporarily banned the use of phrases such as "personality cult" and "my emperor" and also references to winnie the pooh a character used to mock xi jinping over his character.

isaac stone fish is an expert on chinese politics. >> xi jinping is only 64 years old. as far as we know he's in excellent health and it could be china like it had in the '50s, '60s and '70s, now has a dictator for life. >> reporter: of course as china grew more prosperous the hope was it would grow more democratic. that doesn't appear to be happening and now countries around the world could be dealing with the same powerful chinese leader for decades to come. john? >> ben tracy. thank you, ben. they dominated the parliamentary election. it's a major blow to the european union. more than 6,000 migrants flooded into italy over the past four years. no single party or coalition received a majority so it may take weeks to decide who will leeds the government.

florida lawmakers are scrambling to pass new gun legislation for the first time in more than a decade after the parkland school shooting. pro-gun advocates protested yesterday outside the capital. they'll vote today on whether teachers will be allowed to be armed. nikki battiste is at the state capital in tallahassee. good morning. >> reporter: good morning. they were rejected over the weekend, though it briefly appeared that a pause on ar-15 sales might pass. they're bitterly divided but must reach a compromise by frday to pass any new laws. >> how can you trust 18-year-olds to go to war but not own a firearm. >> reporter: speaking at this pro -- >> raising the age would

effectively terminate any second amendment rights i have in this state. >> reporter: during a special session they spent eight hours amending the act. >> the only thing that would help the situation is if we ban the assault weapon. >> it's not the weapon. it's the evil from within. >> reporter: as it stands it would increase the age to buy a rifle from 18 to 21 ban bump stocks and require a three-day waiting period to buy most guns. and a new marshal program would permit teacher and staff to be armed after at least 100 hours of training. following a voice vote a ban on ar-15 weapons was originally tasked but it was reversed 20 minutes later in a roll call. the decision stung for some

florida school shooting survivors. one student tweeted this breaks my heart but we'll not let this ruin our movement. >> there have been marriagejory stoneman douglas students here. >> reporter: if it passes the bill today, it will then be considered by the house. more than 400,000 people in the east are still without power after friday's massive nor'easter, and another powerful storm system is on the move. winter storm warnings are in effect today. nearly 70 million people are in the storm's path. it could dump heavy snow by wednesday. west virginia lawmakers are meeting today to try to reach an agreement to end the statewide teacher strike. this morning nearly 300,000 students are out of class again

for the eighth day. teachers are protesting low salaries and rising health care costs. vladimir duthiers with why the deal fell apart over the weekend. good morning. >> good morning. they agreed to a 5% raise but over the weekend west virginia senate offered a 4% deal in its place. they called it unacceptable and will strike for anything less than 5%. teachers in west virginia say they're fed up. >> they're making it look like it's all about money and it's not. >> reporter: over the weekend the state senate knocked down an approved teach irpay increase to give them an equal 4% raise. but the union says it's pitting teachers against other republican employees. >> we want everyone to have fair equitable living wage. you can't reduce one because of another. >> reporter: west virginia

teachers are among the lowest paid in the country with salaries starting at about $33,000 a year and the union says cost of living has gone up by nearly 5% sense their last pay crease five years ago. >> 5% doesn't move us any farther than where we should be so it is bait and switch. it is unacceptable. >> reporter: west virginia's governor tweeted this weekend this wrangling needs to stop we're putting our children at risk. it affected more than 270,000 students. many are linking in poverty and miss out on free breakfasts and lunches when they go to school. >> we want to do our part to make sure kids get some food. >> reporter: union leaders say they won't stop until they reach an acceptable compromise. >> as long as this amendment is out there with this 4% j we will stay united and we will be out indefinitely. >> it's inspired teachers in

other states like in oklahoma to organize their own walkout. >> as you said students paying debate. a new isis propaganda video shows u.s. soldiers caught in a deadly ambush in niger. ahead, how it raises new

around 40,000 children are involved in the dangerous mining of a key video. >> ahead a cbs news investigation takes us to the democratic republic of congo to see how child's labor is dealing

the cbs news investigation finds we could be carrying products that were made as a prult product of child labor. cobalt ended up in products of dozens of companies including apple, microsoft tesla, and samsung. cobalt is needed in batteries powering common devices like our cell phones, laptops, and in the growing number of electric cars. debora patta traveled to the dnc to follow the complex supply chain. good morning. >> reporter: good morning. the drc is embroiled in conflict and it's difficult and sometimes dangerous to report from there. on a recent trip soublt of the

country we saw what looked like the wild west. they're digging in trenches and laboring in lakes. hunting for treasure in a playground from hello. hard enough for an adult man, unthinkable for a child. and yet tens of thousands of congolese kids are involved in every stage of mining for cobalt. more than half the world's supply comes from the drc. 20% of that is mined by hand. we traveled along collapsing dirt roads. children are everywhere digging for cobalt in abandoned open pit mines, and it's clear security officials in charge here only some of them in uniform, have something to hide. there's such a sensitivity around the cobalt mine every few hundred feet we get stopped requesting letters, document we have

official reason to be here. there are no such constraints. they have free access to the mines. inside women and children are doing so-called artisanal mining. but don't be fooled. this is no quaint cottage industry. at barely 10 years old children lug heavy sacks of cobalt to be washed in. from as early as 4 they can even those too young to work spend much of the day breathing in toxic fumes.of clear let's obvious that there is but whenever a camera or policeman appear the children are chased away. this girl is 11 years old and agreed to meet us outside the mine. why are you working in the mine in. >> my parents are dead and i need to make money for my

grandma. >> reporter: we asked these companies. all acknowledge problems with the supply chain but they require their suppliers to follow guidelines. last year apple cut ties with the largest artisanal cobalt supplier. microsoft told us it does not tolerate child labor and they're working with ngos to eliminate it. samsung said it's mapping its supply chain and they explained the order and says it has very little cobalt in its batteries. but it's very difficult. we followed the mineral as it left the mines. piled high on every mode of transport available. sacks were already mixed up without labels making it impossible to know who had mined them. the children's cobalt is brought here to this market where it is bought by a chinese company for

extremely low prices. we wanted the see whether there was any attempt to see if the cobalt had been mined by children, so our team went back late were a hidden camera. when we offered to sell a truckload of cobalt nobody asked us who mined the mineral, only what the quality was. this man told us the chinese traders bought all the cobalt and sold it to one chinese company known locally as cdm. it's owned by a giant company. they said they stopped buying from that market last year and to put in place a detailed program to eliminate child labor% from their supply chain and yet in this murky process of sorting cobalt one thing is clear, children are still here carrying the weight of our high-tech world on their

shoulders. we spoke to eight major tech companies who have been linked to this supply chain and while some of them have joined initiatives to solve this problem, we saw very little evidence that the mines we visited of anyone actually helping these children. they're working with apple, microsoft, and hayou describe the support of these companies as a drop in the bucket while children are still mining these areas. think would have some rethinking to do and consumers. you have kids working there. >> you can say you have policies in place, but if they're not in force, they're not going to do anything. >> you can see more tomorrow on our website and tomorrow we'll share more from the boy zeke
