Congress Deals With Debt Ceiling

The next big issue facing Congress is dealing with 14.28 trillion dollar debt. Rep. James Clyburn (D-SC), assistant minority leader in the House says the ideological debates and idealistic approaches to governance should end and the focus should be on bringing down the debt, eliminating these deficits, and putting the house on fiscal sound footing. He spoke to CNN’s American Morning anchors Christine Romans, Ali Velshi and Kiran Chetry about his priorities on raising the debt limit.
