Each month, revered political analyst and longtime CNN contributor, Bill Schneider, hosts a private press briefing to provide insight into the politicians, polls, and issues that are shaping our political landscape.

With the holidays approaching, our thoughts turn to family, friends and... another fiscal cliff?

Republicans have decided not to talk about anything but Obamacare. But the Obama Administration is talking about immigration reform, college access, building on the progress of our economic recovery, in addition to improving the performance of healthcare.gov and working to ensure as many Americans as possible can access new quality, affordable health insurance options that work for their budgets and their needs.

Our special guest this month, Jason Furman, Chairman of the Council of Economic Advisers, knows a thing or two about the economy. He joined us to discuss how taking steps to fix our broken immigration system, improve our education system from pre-k to college, and implementing the Affordable Care Act will help grow the middle class and contribute to long term economic growth. And as the polls report, that is the thing the American people continue to think about to the exclusion of almost everything else.
