come up with a new plan that he hoped to present to an independent budget score keeper, so that could be reviewed while the senators were gone so they could vote as early as next week. no word whether that will happen. also this morning, the white house is confirming that president trump next week, when he's at the g-20 summit will meet face-to-face with the russian president vladimir putin. what's not clear right now whet confront his russian counterpart about moscow's meddling in the 2016 election. they have other topics to talk about, including ukraine and syria here. we are hearing from the russian foreign minister, sergey lavrov, saying he's optimistic. saying judging by the talks on the phone both are willing to overcome the abnormality that dominates our relations. >> thank you, peter. something else we're focusing on this morning is travel. today marks the start of the busy holiday weekend. it's also the physical full day

already here. and the trump administration is defining that family connection narrowly a parent, child, in-laws, sibling, spouse or fiancee. that does not include grandparent, aunt or uncle, niece or nephew, cousin, brother or sister-in-law. industry groups say the new rules will dampen business travelers and not just from the six affected countries. >> we don't know what other countries might get added to the ban. they're going to really question whether or not they want to do business in the u.s. >> reporter: the new rules mean a 120-day ban on admitting refugees unless they have a connection to the family here. that would have blocked mustafa al hassoun who came to the u.s. as a refugee from syria's violent civil war.

with no family in the u.s., he says he would have had no place to go. >> syrian people who want to come to the united states, those people need a new life. an opportunity. they cannot stay in syria anymore. >> reporter: the challengers who got the executive order blocked this year are now asking a judge to rule that the government is being too restrictive about the kind of family relationships that count for getting a visa. a ruling could come next week. matt? sheinelle? >> pete williams in washington. pete, thank you. for more on how things are looking at the airports and the roads, let's bring in nbc's gabe gutierrez. he is keeping an eye on it all at hartsfield-jackson airport. >> reporter: a good morning. tsa lines are running smoothly here, hartsfield said 93,000 people are expected to go through tsa today. many thousands more are expected to connect. we look at flightaware.com's misery map around the country, we see a lot of green and that means good news. no delays or cancellations. a record number of holiday travelers are expected this

products. they told us they absolutely do not encourage using them to run red lights on condone using them in states where they are legal. the laws vary about these products from state to state. if you want to know if there are red light cameras in your state, we have a full list on our website right now, today.com. >> makes no sense. >> what else would they use it for. >> to keep you from getting a ticket. obviously that means you ran a red. >> you break the law. >> so someone is making money off something that can kill people or cause an accident that can kill people. >> that's what the police say for sure. >> thanks very much. let's go to dylan. he's the about to tell us what's going on outside. >> reporter: i was walking through the hallway and ran into this person right here. charlie puth is ready to rock the plaza. we forgot to practice this, but this is all anyone cares about right now. >> it's loud. >> hey, charlie. >> all right.

he is famously known as the red meat loving woodworking manly man, ron swanson. we're talking about rick offerman, who appeared for seven seasons on "parks and recreation," as the director of the pawnee parks department. >> but his latest passion takes him countryside where he co-produced a new film called "look and see." >> we have nick here all to tell us about it this morning. >> thanks for having me. >> congratulations on the documentary. it's about documentary of food. >> this is my favorite writer in all the world, wendell berry. i was brought on to the film as a cheerleader. this great filmmaker, laura

dunn, has made a documentary about my favorite writer, who lives in kentucky and farms with his family and happens to be a shakespeare level writer, as well. i grew up in a similar family. my dad is still an astonishing garden gardener. and the message of the film and what i want to get across to people is, if you plan on eating food going forward, you should take an interest in this subject matter because we, as an industrial society, have sort of gone very deep into the world of the wrong turns. we've lost touch with our farmers and who is making our food and how we're treating our land and our resources. he's well known for this phrase, wendell berry, eating is an agricultural act. you think about that. >> that's him, right? >> that is, yeah. he also loves to laugh.

>> i like that. >> it's important to farming. if you can't laugh, you won't last long. >> i love that. >> eating is an agriculture act. he's well known for. but he says, i didn't write all of the words to become known for a bumper sticker. that's a good way to think about it. we're a short attention span society. and i really invite everyone to look into this work, see this movie, read this guy's stuff because, in all of our lives, no matter where you live, there's a garden to be found. maybe it's knitting. maybe it's making food, in your apartment in new york city. but somewhere, you can pay attention to how your life is being curated and produced. he also says, it all turns on affection, which i love. it's a way to back yourself off of online shopping and into the world of the people around you and say, how can i tell you that i love you, by making you breakfast? by opening the door for you?

there's blossoms to be cultivated every place. >> was that amazing for you to really like this author and to go through this documentary and find out everything you liked about him was true and he was that person? >> it really has been that way. i got to spent time with him and his family. and it was wonderfully refreshing. so often you meet your heroes. and they start doing lines of cocaine. >> wow. >> i should not -- >> backstage with me and al. >> you're not supposed to mention that. >> jim o'hare is who i'm referring to. jim o'hare. he loves that stuff. he's a good guy. we have him in a program. >> i just want to mention, we mentioned in our open, you got heckled at wrigley field. what happened? >> well, i threw out the first pitch. and i did a bit of a silent film comedy shtick with my dad on the

mound, which was a dream come true. and true to form, my pitch itself was a comedy pitch. >> where did it land? >> the catcher caught it. but i did bounce it. i bounced it in. >> a few times? is it a lot longer thanl it looks? >> it's actually about a quarter mile. >> i didn't know that. >> took seven minutes. >> you were heckled? >> on the way up to my seat. the crazy thing, it was a guy who looked a lot like me. it may have been in my head. but he was definitely drunk. and he said, what the hell was that supposed to be? i said, i'm a comedian. that pitch was hilarious. >> charlie beat boxed. i understand you rap. >> that's a generous estimation. >> can he give you a beat and you come up with something? >> sure. what could go wrong. >> i'm here to discuss fine

literature, if i had a saxophone i would hold my reed on with an amateur. my rhymes are dope. this feels very fresh. good morning. >> kind of a rap and a haiku. >> yes. >> when our time is done, we'll press the flesh. >> ironically, my producer just said wrap. nick, thank you so much.
