3/15: Thousands of migrant children arrive in the U.S. without their parents. Inequality in vaccine distribution.
After a year that included social unrest and a painful pandemic, the Grammys seemed to capture the moment that we're in as a nation. The number of migrant children in border patrol custody has soared, and CBS News has learned 4,200 unaccompanied kids are now being held, most longer than they legally should be. The Biden administration has ordered FEMA to help with the surge, and a group of Republican lawmakers is headed to the border today. More than 69 million Americans have been vaccinated so far, or around 27% of the adult population. A poll showed vaccine hesitancy is about the same regardless of race, with nearly a quarter of white, Black, and Latino respondents saying they won't get the shot. President Biden has weighed in for the first time on the scandals surrounding New York Governor Andrew Cuomo, who faces multiple allegations of sexual harassment. Protesters filled streets nationwide to remember Breonna Taylor on the one-year anniversary of her death.
