Now that the “One Big Beautiful Bill Act” is law, Congress is turning its attention to another matter: avoiding a government shutdown. We’ll explain what it will take to keep the government running beyond Congress’ Sept. 30 deadline. And, we’ll fill you in on another deadline: President Trump’s new due date for trade deals before a slew of higher tariff rates kick in. Plus, a listener’s story of frozen pizza and facing fears.

Here’s everything we talked about today:

"Why the federal government will shut down. And why it won’t" from Punchbowl News
"Trump combats TACO reputation as White House extends tariff deadline" from The Washington Post
"Too Many Goods Are About To Face Historically High Tariffs" from Tax Policy Center
"Flint finally replaced its lead pipes" from The Washington Post
