And for more on what you would watch for as congress return were joined by mark murray nbcs political editor. Happy new year. Lots to come. Tracie just mentioned the keystone legislation. If that does pass will the president veto it . You know its unclear. I think all indications are from the press conference that he gave at the end of 2014 is if its that he doesnt think is going to help the country. This is about canadian oil. Its not going to create a lot jobs. Theres a big question on how Many Democrats will end up supporting that legislation even to be able to get to president obamas desk. But certainly one of the very big things from kind of big thing from president obama about how the 114th congress will go. We talked last week about the controversy surrounding representative steve skal ease. He had some problems. He spoke to a white supremist group. Whats going to happen there . This story isnt going away. Sometimes when youre in this kind of midst scandal you styles dont know whether the persons going to lose their job or not. He has very little margin for error now. It will Congress Come back on the house, on the floor of congress the United States senate every one of these republicans gets a question on should Steve Scalice remain in his position the question is will there be more republicans asking. They realize this is such a really big headache or we just pass and go on to another story later on down the line and people forget about this. I dont know how its going to break. Have both republicans and democrats weighed in on their feeling about scalice . They have. Democrats are mostly you know they think that scalice should resign. They want to make the most out of it. Republicans are really divided here. Republicans trying to say this is a big distraction, its not helpful. Others including boehner right now are certainly backing skalice. The immigration fight, are we going to see that again . Absolutely a really big story. Its all about funding the department of homeland security. Remember when congress ended up passing that spending bill in middecember. It dealt with everything but the department of homeland security. This is where republicans want to have their big fight on immigration. The question is who ends up paying the bigger price for the fight . If you end up having some type of potential shutdown on the department of homeland security. What about boehner . Is he safe in his position . Will that come up too as an issue . Barbara, he and what will be the issue . He is safe. There will be a speaker election tomorrow with the new congress. He is safe. But there are about 10 to 15 to 20 house conservatives who will vote against him. It creates a little troublesome headline for republicans. Going to again, make him divided. Even though the majority of House Republicans are going to support john boehner. Its still a reminder that right conservative flank he has is problematic for him on legislation they want to pass.

These clippers are not big snow producers. Falling temperatures today. 40s now to the 20s tonight. And then highs only in the low to mid30s tomorrow. And below freezing high temperatures for both wednesday and thursday. Thursday morning will be the coldest morning of the week. 13 downtown means probably more in the neighborhood of 5, 6 degrees out towards the shenandoah valley. Good news for the weekend. It will still be cold. It looks like it will be dry. Those freezing temperatures we should see the snow stick. It should stick around. The whole inch of it. All right, thanks. News 4 midday.
