[Church:] There is growing pressure on U.S. Representative John Conyers to resign his seat after several women accused him of sexual harassment. The chairman of the Congressional Black Caucus says he had a candid conversation with the democratic congressman but said any decision to resign from office is Conyers' to make. Conyers has admitted reaching a financial settlement with one accuser but denies the harassment allegations. A new accusation surfaced Tuesday from a former staffer in Conyers' Detroit office. The woman worked in the district office from 1997 until 2005. She said the office had a sexually suggestive culture, and she made reports to a House committee on official conduct. She described one incident where she was told to drive Conyers to the airport.
[Deanna Maher, John Conyers Accuser:] He was driving erratically. He was a terrible driver, erratically. Thank God he was erratic, OK, because his hand was feeling me all over my what do you call it? My abdomen, OK? That area while he was driving. And I thought, my God, what am I going to do?
[Church:] Well, meanwhile, Alabama Senate candidate Roy Moore will get some help on the campaign trail from former White House strategist Steve Bannon. Several women have accused Moore of pursuing them when they were teenagers and he was in his 30s. One accuses him of sexual abuse when she was 14. Moore denies all the allegations. Alex Marquardt reports on the heated race between Moore and his democratic challenger.
[Alexander Marquardt, Cnn Senior National Correspondent:] In what has turned into a grueling high-stakes race, the president has made clear he prefers the prospect of an accused child abuser in the Senate than a democrat like Doug Jones.
[Trump:] I can tell you one thing for sure. We don't need a liberal person in there, a democrat, Jones. I've looked at his record. It's terrible on crime. It's terrible on the border. It's terrible in the military.
[Marquardt:] Trump has emphasized that Moore has denied all of the accusations, but those views are repeated by supporters of Roy Moore like conservative activist Ann Eubank.
[Ann Eubank, Conservative Activist:] Conservatives do not believe in open borders and conservatives believe that a child's life is more important than a woman's choice.
[Marquardt:] Today Jones defended those accusations. How do you respond to the president and to Roy Moore and his supporters who say that you are terrible on crime, terrible on immigration?
[Doug Jones,  Senate Candidate:] Well, I tell people to look at my record and see what I've done, you know, as a former assistant U.S. attorney, a former U.S. attorney, we prosecuted tons of people. Look at my record. Don't just listen to a tweet. Don't listen to somebody make a statement.
[Marquardt:] When it comes to crime, Jones made his name as a U.S. attorney, prosecuting one of the most tragic attacks in Alabama history, the bombing of the 16th Street Baptist Church in 1963 that left four young girls dead, two members of the Ku Klux Klan were convicted. Jones is more conservative than many democrats in Washington, but for Alabama, he's about as left as they come. Under fire from many Alabamians for his views on abortion.
[Jones:] I am a firm believer that a woman should have the freedom to choose what happens to her own body, and I'm going to stand up for that.
[Marquardt:] Moore supporters jumped on Jones for saying he wouldn't back legislation banning abortions after 20 weeks. Later walking it back, saying late-term abortions should only be for medical emergencies. On immigration, he has criticizes the president's plan for a wall on the Mexican border and has supported the so-called DACA program for the children of undocumented immigrants. He calls himself a Second Amendment guy, but has called for more stringent background checks for gun buyers, all positions that Trump and Moore have seized on and which columnist John Archibald says, Jones hasn't done well in communicating to potential voters.
[John Archibald, Columnist, Alabama Media Group:] I don't think he's done a good job of coming out and saying this is what I stand for in a way that people of Alabama as the majority can understand. But clearly I think what he believes and his campaign believes he needs to do is sit back and hope that Roy Moore implodes. I think as we get closer to Election Day, that's probably not going to be enough.
[Marquardt:] Alex Marquardt, CNN, Birmingham, Alabama.
[Church:] New developments in the investigation into a string of killings in Florida. Four people in Tampa were shot to death separately in the past month and a half. The shootings all happened less than a mile from each other. Police now plan to charge a suspect. They arrested a 24-year-old man after he brought a gun to a McDonald's fast food restaurant. The four victims were killed but not robbed while waiting at a bus stop or just walking alone at night. At this point, the motive is not clear. Well, more ahead on North Korea's most alarming missile launch yet. Why U.S. leaders say it puts the two countries on a collision course. Donald Trump is a little closer to something he really wants, a bill he can sign into law. How his tax cut plan made its way to the senate floor. We'll have that and more when we return. Stay with us.
