A quick look at the week of December 13, 2010:
Quote: “We are here with some good news for the American people this holiday season,” said President Obama before signing the Middle-Class Tax Cuts Bill -- legislation that will prevent tax hikes on middle class families, keep the economy growing, and maintain lifelines for millions of those who are unemployed through no fault of their own.

Elmo at the White House: Elmo joins Assistant White House Chef Sam Kass in the White House Kitchen to talk about healthy and tasty school meals -- and Elmo does the melon dance. Watch the video.
