NEC Director Kevin Hassett, Rep. Tom Suozzi, Ken Burns
This week on Face the Nation, disastrous flash floods kill dozens in
Texas. We'll have the latest on the tragedy. Plus, after a long week

But Democrats, and even some Republicans, are not happy with the bills's projected debt and deficit increases, cuts to Medicaid, and other provisions. We talk with the head of the White House National Economic Council Kevin Hassett. New York Democratic Congressman Tom Suozzi joins us to discuss his party's plan to build on voter apprehension about the new law. Finally, CBS Evening News Co-Anchor John Dickerson talks to filmmaker and historian Ken Burns about his new project as America moves towards marking our 250th year.
