The pressure is on and expectations are high as the Obama administration’s Dec. 1 deadline to fix the problems with the Healthcare.gov website arrives. The Sunday news shows this week will delve into that topic, plus the emerging details of an interim deal to halt Iran’s nuclear program.

“Fox News Sunday” will feature James C. Capretta of the Ethics & Public Policy Center and Neera Tanden, the president of the Center for American Progress, discussing the health care deadline and concerns that users could again overwhelm the site. Michael V. Hayden, former director of the National Security Agency, will give his take on the pros and cons of the agreement on Iran’s nuclear program.

Tom Donilon, former national security adviser for President Obama, stops by ABC’s “This Week” to discuss Iran, the future of United States troops in Afghanistan and China’s newly declared air defense zone.

Representatives Mike Rogers, Republican of Michigan and chairman of the House Intelligence Committee, and Chris Van Hollen, Democrat of Maryland and member of the Budget Committee, will appear on NBC’s “Meet the Press” to evaluate the Iran nuclear deal and potential trouble in Congress for Mr. Obama over the health care site’s problems. Cardinal Timothy M. Dolan of New York will discuss the effect of the Affordable Care Act on the Catholic Church.

Those subjects will be explored further on CBS’s “Face the Nation” by Senators Robert Menendez, Democrat of New Jersey, and Bob Corker, Republican of Tennessee, both members of the Foreign Relations Committee. Gov. Scott Walker of Wisconsin will also be interviewed.

Howard Dean, former Vermont governor, and Rick Santorum, former senator from Pennsylvania, will be on CNN’s “State of the Union” to discuss the Supreme Court’s decision to hear an appeal concerning mandated contraception coverage under the new health care law.
