What to know about the $810 million in spending canceled by President Trump (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Each year, Congress passes laws which allocate money to the federal government's various programs and agencies. Trump, for the second year in a row, is refusing to send some of that money to the places that Congress says it has to go, setting off a fresh battle with lawmakers over who controls federal spending. Of the $810 million being withheld, $567 million comes from programs that "provided services to refugees, asylees, and other non-citizens," according to a memo from the White House. The m
As Congress confronts AI, Senate lawmakers are shut off from its most advanced tools (opens the original)
Read excerpt

Congress is under pressure to act on AI — here's what that could look like (opens the original)
Read excerpt
This week, some in Congress seemed to discover a new urgency to act on the complicated task of AI regulation after a slew of grim warnings from industry leaders. The only issue: Most of them leave town this week until after the November election. And they are not just short on time — they're short on consensus on whether regulation is even a task for Congress to tackle. Take, for example, the leaders of the parties in the House of Representatives. Speaker of the House Mike Johnson, R-La., said T
