Congress Returns, As Does Another Shutdown Fight

Congress Returns, As Does Another Shutdown Fight

Author: FOX News Radio September 3, 2025 Duration: 33:50
Congress is back from recess, with only a few weeks to avert a government shutdown. Lawmakers are split over budget priorities, including Medicaid and military spending. Kansas Republican Senator Roger Marshall joins the Rundown to discuss the budget battle, the President's crime crackdown in Washington D.C., and the recent controversial changes at the CDC. On Friday, a federal appeals court ruled that the Trump administration acted unlawfully in imposing certain tariffs, finding that President Trump exceeded his authority under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA). FOX Business correspondent Lydia Hu joins the Rundown to break down the legal questions surrounding the President's tariff policies, the potential consequences if the Supreme Court upholds the decision, including possible government refunds of collected revenue, and the broader impact on existing and pending trade agreements. Plus, commentary from Yemisi Egbewole, former Chief of Staff and Advisor to the Biden White House Press Office, and the founder of Podium Strategies. Learn more about your ad choices.
