Newsmakers 1/27: Jim Langevin

EAST PROVIDENCE, R.I. (WPRI) - This week on Newsmakers: Congressman Jim Langevin.

Standing before a bitterly divided Congress on Tuesday night, President Barack Obama delivered a laundry list of policy goals in his State of the Union speech. But critics say it sounded more like a campaign platform and it is unlikely he will be able to push anything meaningful through Capitol Hill in 2012. Langevin said though Congress is the most divisive he’s ever seen, he thinks some measures will get through, including bills to beef up the nation's cybersecurity and an extension to the payroll tax cut. Langevin also discusses the conversation he had with Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords who returned to Washington, D.C., to attend the president’s speech.
