leigh is a town that has struggled through covid, and so have the young.fairness. so what is your reaction to the new health and social care levy? the younger generation, it is not fair on those who have to pay so much tax. and it is going to go in their pocket and not ours when we are working so hard for it. to get on the property ladder and to save for a better life and things like that, we have got to pay for something that should have _ already been paid for by the people who are benefiting at the end of the day. remembering simpler times. 60s nostalgia inside neil's cafe. right now, the priority is to survive the pandemic. at the moment, we are just about keeping going. the fear is that employer contributions for social care reform will be too much. i fully understand that we need to address this, but it is an extra 50 or 60 quid a week. multiply that by three or four staff and it is seriously going to see a lot of businesses off. there is uncertainty, but also hope for those who desperately need care. ed thomas, bbc news, leigh. it has just it hasjus

nbc news capitol hill correspondent leigh ann caldwell, eddie glaude jr.umber. cory booker said whether it's $3 trillion or 2.5 -- the number iç moving, what's going to happen this week? >> the number is moving. the reason it's moving is they know they can't get $3.5 trillion. that has been made clear. but there's problems with the number, too. that is that people like senator joe manchin who have said they won't support $3.5 trillion also won't give a specific number, so speaker pelosi is trying to negotiate legislation with the moderates, with the progressives and with people like senator joe manchin in the senate■ç who aret specific on what they want. so it's a rubik's cube. it's a venn diagram and every sort of crazy mathematical thing they're trying to fit together. it's extremely complicated. my sources say they don't know how it's going to play out. >> the pa that ream theory in here. cory booker didn't say i don't - situation where he doesn't trust. >> before we came on, we were chatting about this. we were reminded of the number of times the house

joining us is nbc news capitol hill correspondent leigh ann caldwell.nn, what can we expect as we head into next week's deadline? >> hey, jonathan. so it's been a critical week on capitol hill even though the house and senate aren't even in session, as you mentioned. those committees are drafting their relevant pieces of this $3.5 trillion human infrastructure bill. but this is just one step in the process, and the first step in the process. the house is going through the process right now. the senate is also doing something similar. and then it goes to the entire caucus, the democratic caucus, where they have to agree on the terms of this bill. and that's going to be extremely difficult, because we've already seen a lot of pushback from two senators, senator joe manchin and even kirstin sinema of arizona, who have a lot of problems with the top line number of the bill, $3.5 trillion. they want to make sure that a lot of these programs for children, for the elderly, that they're means-tested so that the most vulnerable have access to these programs and

let's bring in nbc news capitol hill correspondent leigh ann caldwell. leigh ann, one of the questions our team had this morning watching the press conference with the house speaker was, why was she in such a good mood? we're all talking about how biden's economic agenda is on a razor's edge. but she was upbeat, projecting confidence, wearing the speaker's mace pin that she wears on big days. >> reporter: she does seem in a good mood, in a sharp contrast with yesterday, she returned from a meeting at the white house last night and her security blocked us from asking her questions, which is usually unheard of. they don't usually do that. then you saw the clip at the congressional baseball game last night, furiously talking on the telephone. but ultimately today is the day that they are supposed to vote on this bipartisan infrastructure bill. and she thrives in these challenges. her talking to her members is what gives her energy and the challenge of her trying to pass this piece of legislation. the last three hours, she has ushered in different groups of

following the testimony, nbc's s leigh ann caldwell is on capitol hill leigh ann. >> reporter: it was a gripping and unfortunate testimony today that was pretty extraordinary from these four young women who told about their pain from when they experienced this be the present pain they're going through now to heal from it. aly raisman says she expects it's going to take a couple months to recover just from this hearing today to tell the world about what she experienced but she also said and the other gymnasts said they feel adults in power were actually listening to them and pledging to do something. that's how betrayed they feel over the past years of trying to tell people close to them and in power what happened. the gymnast testimony was only one part of the hearing. the second part we heard from the fbi inspector general who had a scathing report about how the fbi handled this case, and we also heard from fbi director christopher wray who came to the hearing to apologize let's listen >> i'm sorry that so many different people let you down over and over again, and i'm especially sor

leigh ann, just take me inside both the substance of what's being discussed and the tension and the moodod is palpable in the sense that there is a lot of stress and anxiety but also excitement. so, the members are walking in behind me, going into this closed doors to really get a status update of what happened after a weekend of negotiations between speaker pelosi, the white house, senate democratic leader schumer, and various members of the democratic caucus josh gottheimer walked by me and i said, what's going to happen he said, we're going to get it done so, there seems to be an incentive for both sides, both progressives and moderates, to pass both pieces of legislation, but the problem is how do they get there and it seems like there's not -- the lack of trust is, of course, between moderates and progressives, but it's mostly between the house and the senate, and that's where senator joe manchin and kyrsten sinema come in because house progressives, they don't just want a commitment from their house moderates, their colleagues in the house. they need a commitment from people like s

. >>> joining us now, nbc news capitol hill correspondent leigh ann caldwell.d morning, leig ann, thanks for being here. >> it's going to be a complicated process moving forward. the house of representatives now that the committees are done drafting this legislation, it now goes to the budget committee where they're kind of secretaries. they put all the pieces of the bill together and it go is to leader to go to the house floor. on the senate side, they're still crafting their version of the legislation. they're not going to do the same process that the house did in having the individual committees hold markups or hearings on this legislation, but they're writing these bills in consultation with the house side by side. now, while this is the logistic process of how this is going to take place bhierngsd the scenes and perhaps the much more important process is what leadership has to do to keep their members in line because there's a lot of concern from the moderates, including senator joe manchin and kyrsten sinema who were at the white house yesterday, and even

i bring in leigh ann caldwell on capitol hill. democrats are hoping things are moving now, legislative text and also this curveball it seems that senator joe manchin is throwing into this with "axios" reporting overnight he may only support a far lower figure than where most democrats are. >> reporter: hey, hallie, that's right. democrats are speeding up these negotiations on figuring out the details of what this $3.5 trillion human infrastructure is going to look like, but as they get deeper into the details, the challenges and the obstacles also pile up. you mentioned one big obstacle right there, senator joe manchin, and he has indicated for some time that $3.5 trillion is a number that is way too high for him. now, my sources are telling me, though, that the house and the senate, who are figuring out the legislation separately are still working under the framework of a $3.5 trillion bill, but it is very clear that negotiations are going to have to continue. for example, in the ways and means committee in the house of represent

for more on the congressional subpoenas, nbc capitol hill correspondent leigh ann caldwell with jonathan lemire, michael steele and jim macena, president of obama's presidential campaign. we have breaking news on the abortion vote. do they expect the four individuals to give testimony or will this be a long legal battle? >> andrea, probably a long, protracted legal battle. it was interesting the strategy. committee members said they were asking people to come and be deposed or submit documents who they think will cooperate for the people they think will not cooperation they are skipping that step of asking and going to subpoena. we saw the first tranche with those four people close to the former president and expect many more subpoenas in the coming days and weeks. something that's also really interesting to me it's not just for a deposition, the committee wants records and data from these individuals as well. they gave them a deadline of one week to turn over those documents. i was speaking with representative raskin and he said while they are important he thinks the main component will

let's bring in the nbc news correspondent leigh ann caldwell, and ben who is with us. and so you are there across from the capitol, so what are lawmakers told to expect saturday? >> hey, geoff. i'm at the base of the capitol, and this is the west front behind me, and where the inauguration usually takes play. this is where the rioters on january 6th scaled that scaffolding to enter the capitol and one of the main entry point, but now there is base at the hill. i wanted to show you, tray s our camera guy is going to pan around, because where the rally is expected to take place on saturday is still further away from the capitol, and on the other side of the water and the other side of the reflecting pool. so there is a difference of the rally and the actual capitol building, but still, the capitol police are taking no chances. they have briefed congressional leaders earlier in the week saying that it was in a secure room, and not only the intelligence that they are receiving, but also the plans for their preparations and for security, geoff. >> and so, ben, the organizer

i want to start on capitol hl with leigh ann caldwell. we're hearing about the standoff on the debt limit. bring us up to speed on what we missed in the last 20 minutes or so. >> reporter: yeah, hallie. so republicans have been saying that they will offer no help to democrats to suspend or lift the debt limit which secretary yellen says expires on october 18th. what senator schumer did, he went to the senate floor and he asked republicans to let them bypass that process that forces republicans to beinvolved, the 60-vote threshold. senator schumer said, look,et us vote -- or pass this with just 50s votes and then we'll do it. you don't have to have any fingerprints. but senator mcconnell objected. let's listen to what senator schumer responded after that. >> simply allow for simple majority threshold to raise the debt ceiling and avoid this neless catastrophe that republicans have steer us toward. we are simply asking senator mcconnell toive by his own example. we have given the republicans what they want. and now the ball is in tir court.
