John McKechnie writes about the retirement savings reform bills being discussed and worked on in both the Senate and the House. Steve Gordon
reports on progress toward passage of USMCA, on the President’s Healthcare Executive Order, on infrastructure and the Highway Trust Fund, and politics in Heard on the Hill. Dana Marston dives into the USMCA from a couple angles, looking at public support for the trade agreement and how the House Ways and Means Committee is examining its labor provisions. She also looks at China’s tariff treatment on goods it imports from countries other than the U.S., as well as possible water/ground contamination on military bases due to the use of chemical fire retardants.

Congress will be leaving town for the July 4th holiday, as will we. Congress will return on July 8th, and we’ll be back that week with This Week.

Have a safe and enjoyable Fourth of July holiday.
