Heavy summer workload awaits Congress

Heavy summer workload awaits Congress-politico: The House will spend the next two months tackling spending bills and defense policy, possibly even some bite-size immigration measures and changes to education policy. The Senate will continue on the farm bill and likely take up immigration reform. There’s a looming deadline on student loan rates and a desire not to let things drag out into the fall when talk turns to the budget and the debt ceiling.
