Coming Up on 'This Week': Bipartisan Debate
Rep Waters, D-Calif., Rep King, R-N.Y., Sen Schumer, D-N.Y., Sen Graham, R-S.C.
Feb 13, 2009 — -- With the stimulus package passed by Congress and on the way to the President's desk, George Stephanopoulos will host a bipartisan roundtable this Sunday to debate the spending bill and whether it can meet the President's goal to create 3.5 million jobs and jump start the economy. Sens Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., and Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., will be joined by Reps Maxine Waters, D-Calif., and Peter King, R-N.Y., in what promises to be a spirited discussion on bipartisan governing and the party-line divide over the stimulus. Also up for debate, the bank bailout and Treasury Secretary Tim Geithner's Financial Stabilization Plan unveiled earlier this week. In light of Sen. Judd Gregg's sudden withdrawal as nominee for Commerce Secretary, the panel will also review the ongoing challenges facing President Obama as he fills his cabinet positions.
Then George will be joined by a classic This Week roundtable with ABC News' Sam Donaldson, Cokie Roberts, and George Will and Donna Brazile to debate all of the week's politics.
