Congress’s first task post-midterms is to figure out how to keep funding America—and that’s before it addresses the $40 trillion national debt

For the next two years, President Trump must run his administration with a Congress controlled by the opposing Democrats. And in the power struggle to come, a key battleground is already being set out: How to keep the lights on at federal government. A number of budget deadlines are marked on Washington, D.C.’s calendar: First is December 11, the day on which a temporary 72-hour funding bill signed by the president in September will expire. After that is a loose circle around fall 2027, when the U.S. debt ceiling will need to be raised.
