POTUS schedule March 24, 2011

WASHINGTON (CNN) - President Obama will spend his first day back from his Latin America trip behind closed doors with a relatively light schedule that was released from the White House last night. So far the only things that are on his schedule are lunch with Vice President Biden and a meeting with Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner in the afternoon- both closed to cameras. There is also no briefing scheduled today. But the White House points out that the president will meet with his national security team to discuss Libya but we don't have a time or if there is any press coverage. We'll update you if anything changes.
