Summary

This week on Face the Nation, the turmoil over tariffs continues. The economic whiplash from the on again, off again Trump tariffs persists here at home, as does the confusion around the world. We speak exclusively with Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent. Then, as Congress continues to move forward with its massive tax and border bill, questions remain on how the Senate will change it. Kentucky Republican Senator Rand Paul gives us the latest on what’s next for the president’s sweeping agenda and his criticisms of it. Plus, how will the administration's new restrictions on foreign student visas impact America's colleges and universities -- and our ability to attract international talent to our workforce? House Democrat Raja Krishnamoorthi and Wesleyan University President Michael Roth will be here to discuss. Finally, we'll get some clarity on whether or not healthy children and pregnant women should get the Covid-19 vaccine after a week of mixed messaging from Trump administration health officials. FDA Commissioner Marty Makary will join us to clear things up.
