The House and Senate convene today at noon and 3 p.m., respectively.

The White House is expected to submit an $11 billion rescissions package to Congress this week. The proposed spending cuts would target unused funds that were previously appropriated. However, the administration will not go after the funds approved in the $1.3 trillion omnibus for FY 2018, which was originally the plan.

Trade representatives from the United States, Canada, and Mexico are meeting today in Washington to continue their negotiations on NAFTA.
