COSTELLO: All right. Straight to Washington, D.C. now -- this is a live look from the Capitol, from Capitol Hill where the Attorney General is testifying before the Senate appropriations committee. She's expected to face tough questioning on the President's executive action on gun control and how the Justice Department plans to implement them. Joe Johns is outside the White House with more. Hi, Joe.</s>JOE JOHNS, CNN SENIOR WHITE HOUSE CORRESPONDENT: Hi, Carol. We are going to be watching the Attorney General's testimony very closely for a bunch of reasons. Number one, for the reason that she was invited to Capitol Hill by Senator Richard Shelby, the Republican of Alabama, one of the senior members of the Appropriations Committee, one of the people in Washington who handles the purse strings on justice issues. He's a huge supporter of gun rights; in fact, just in the last ten days, honored by the board of the National Rifle Association for his support of the cause. He's not going to take any of the President's executive actions on guns lightly at all. In fact, in a letter inviting Lynch to the hill, he wrote that he's not going to sit idly by and allow DOJ to implement what he called unlawful, unconstitutional actions. Now, Lynch, for her part, is very much the point person for the administration on the issue of the President's executive actions. In fact, she met with the President just the day before he made his big announcement. We do expect her to carry the administration message to Capitol Hill that in their view, everything the President is doing is lawful and simply clarifying existing law on guns. So a possibility of a halfway-decent face-off here on Capitol Hill -- Carol.</s>COSTELLO: All right. Joe Johns -- reporting live from the White House -- thank you. Still to come in the newsroom, Ashleigh Banfield makes the long trip home to reveal the person who changed her life. It's all part of a new CNN special, and it is very special indeed. Ashleigh's here next.
