Sen. Chris Van Hollen, EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin, Rep. Brian Fitzpatrick, Gov. Maura Healey
This week on Face the Nation, the Trump's administration's showdown with the courts over deportations, and a closer look at Trump's agenda on education, environmental policy and more. In a rare overnight ruling, Supreme Court justices blocked the Trump administration's plans to deport a group of Venezuelans held at a detention facility in Texas. Trump also deported Kilmar Abrego Garcia -- a Maryland resident who officials admit was expelled by mistake. Senator Chris Van Hollen is just back from visiting Abrego Garcia in El Salvador, we ask him what's next. Then, Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelenskyy says Russia is violating its own "Easter truce." And as President Trump signals the U.S. may walk away from its push for peace negotiations, we check in with Pennsylvania Congressman Brian Fitzpatrick, who's just back from a trip to Ukraine's front line. Plus, we talk with Massachusetts Governor Maura Healey about her state's fight with Washington over higher education and more. And Chicago Federal Reserve President Austan Goolsbee joins us with an update on the economy. Finally, ahead of Earth Day, we hear from the administrator of the Environmental Protection Agency, Lee Zeldin.
