Congress Returns to Tense Showdown as Shutdown Deadline Approaches

The return to Capitol Hill underscores the urgent need for a funding agreement, with the clock ticking toward early September. Budget disagreements center around the scale of defense and domestic program cuts demanded by Republicans. Lawmakers warn that failure to act quickly could disrupt services and public confidence. The suspense sets the stage for one of the most high-stakes starts to a legislative session in recent memory.
