Lawmakers face a tight timeline to pass key legislation. A short-term funding bill is a priority to prevent a shutdown before elections. This bill would provide funding until mid-December, delaying major negotiations.

The schedule is busy with lawmakers returning after a month away. They have less than four weeks to act on the funding bill, which must be completed by September 30th.
