Clip: 9/9/2016 | 2m 41s

The U.S. House gave final approval for 9/11 victims’ families to sue Saudi Arabia.

In our news wrap Friday, two days before the 15th anniversary of the 9/11 attacks, the U.S. House gave final approval for 9/11 victims’ families to sue Saudi Arabia, although the White House has made suggestions of a veto. Also, there are new warnings from U.S. federal agencies about Samsung’s Galaxy Note 7 phone. There have been multiple incidents in which the batteries exploded, sparking fires.
