• Record $1.5 Trillion Deficit Seen -- Budget Office Figures Ramp Up D.C. Debate

WASHINGTON - Far from slowing, the government's deficit spending will surge to a record $1.5 trillion flood of red ink this year, congressional budget experts estimated Wednesday, blaming the slow economic recovery and last month's tax-cut law. The report was sobering new evidence that it will take more than President Barack Obama's proposed freeze on some agencies to stem the nation's extraordinary budget woes. Republicans say they want big budget cuts but so far are light on specifics.

• Deficit 'Super Committee' Looks Set for a Bumpy Start

WASHINGTON - The congressional "super committee" on deficit reduction has extraordinary new power to chart the nation's budget and policy decisions for the next decade. What it doesn't have is a meeting room. Or a staff director. Or clear rules to govern the bipartisan panel that in three months is expected to recommend $1.5 trillion in deficit reduction, a massive undertaking that many are skeptical will succeed.

• Snow Expected Today - with Last Year's Bills Still Unpaid

The New Jersey Turnpike Authority is still making payments to contractors who did battle with last month's storm -- even as the region hopes for a much tamer snowfall today.

• New Super Committee has Difficult Job to Do

The congressional "super committee" on deficit reduction has extraordinary new power to chart the nation's budget and policy decisions for the next decade. What it doesn't have is a meeting room. Or a staff director. Or clear rules to govern the bipartisan panel that in three months is expected to recommend $1.5 trillion in deficit reduction, a massive undertaking that many are skeptical will succeed. Think of the new Joint Select Committee on Deficit Reduction as a congressional pop-up panel. It has fewer than 100 days to resolve some of the most difficult, partisan fights over taxes and entitlement policy that have stymied Washington for decades. When it runs out of days, the committee disappears.
