News Wrap: U.S. Navy wants to reinstate fired ship captain

In our news wrap Friday, the U.S. Navy wants Brett Crozier to be reinstated as captain of the aircraft carrier Theodore Roosevelt. Crozier was fired after he appealed to evacuate the ship as COVID-19 broke out on board. Also, the Congressional Budget Office says economic damage and federal relief bills will drive the U.S. deficit to $3.7 trillion this year -- nearly four times more than last year.
