Political Tensions and Economic Decisions

Congressional Democrats are at odds as to whether or not to support Republican-led efforts to keep the government funded ahead of a Friday deadline. We look at the divisions.

This episode: White House correspondents Asma Khalid and Franco Ordoñez, and congressional correspondent Claudia Grisales.
