Congress hits campaign trail as Congress leaves Washington
Congress pulls back from Washington for the campaign trail after passing a stopgap spending measure to avert a government shutdown. The Senate, in a late session, backed a public lands access bill amid partisan skirmishes, while the House retreat focused on the Stop the War on Coal Act and budget disagreements. The session produced 173 new laws overall and left unfinished business on budget, farm policy, and Postal Service solvency.
