Director Kevin Hassett, Gov. Wes Moore, Gov.-elect Abigail Spanberger

This week on Face the Nation, there's no end in sight to the longest government shutdown in history. With each passing day, the impact of the government shutdown grows, with millions of Americans now facing major disruptions, from mass flight cancellations and delays because of staffing shortages, to growing lines at food banks, as the Supreme Court lets the Trump administration withhold some money to fund food stamp benefits. We talk with Maryland's Democratic Governor Wes Moore and West Virginia's Republican Governor Patrick Morrisey about how they could fill the funding gap as safety net programs hang in limbo. The president's top economic adviser Kevin Hassett also joins us, we ask him the impact of the shutdown on the economy. Plus, we hear from two incoming governors, Abigail Spanberger of Virginia and Mikie Sherrill of New Jersey on their election night victories and the future of the Democrat party.
