WHAT’S ON TAP?
Today on Capitol Hill…
As the critters start gearing up to get back to work in D.C., there’s some talk of including the SAVE Act (prohibiting non-citizens from voting) in the continuing resolution that will be needed to fund the government past September 30.

MORNING MUSING
As I put these together each weekday morning, I make frequent use of Google to hunt down where this campaign is or what’s going on in the world of politics. Inescapable is the fact that headline after headline that the algorithm spits out is positive regarding Kamala Harris and negative regarding Donald Trump. We’re just a little over two months out, and those who can’t abide the notion of a second Trump term are going to be throwing everything and the kitchen sink out as roadblocks. Don’t let it discourage you. Keep fighting the good fight.
