Congress is set to reconvene Monday from its two-week hiatus, teeing up a hectic agenda as lawmakers scramble to address recent developments.
As lawmakers filter through the halls of Congress once again, they will grapple with the debt limit battle, Democrats' likely attempt to replace Sen. Dianne Feinstein on the Judiciary Committee, a public rebuke of District Attorney Alvin Bragg through a field hearing in Manhattan, and the return of key members who had been out for medical care.Here is a look at four key points on the docket for Congress's return.
Serious breakthroughs this week appear unlikely. Behind the scenes, Republicans have been crafting their proposal to address the lingering crisis. They are reportedly eyeing an offer to lift the debt limit until around May 2024 in exchange for sharp cuts, possibly as much as $3 trillion to $4 trillion over the next decade.
Now that Republicans are back on the hill, their plans to redress the development will start to take shape. On Monday, members of the House Judiciary Committee will hold a field hearing in Manhattan about"victims of violent crime," offering a rebuke of Bragg, particularly his record on prosecuting crime.
Last week, that irritation simmered over when Rep. Ro Khanna called on her to step down. In the face of progressive pressure, Feinstein asked Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer to appoint a temporary replacement for her on the judiciary panel to keep Biden's nominees flowing.To swap a senator with Feinstein, Schumer must amend the chamber's organizing resolution.
