Live updates: Trump to address religious liberty; Congress grinds toward shutdown deadline

President Trump starts out the week addressing the Religious Liberty Commission, which he established earlier this year.

Trump is expected to speak on religious liberty Monday morning at the Museum of the Bible in Washington.

    “The previous administration abused the federal government’s power to interfere with Americans’ First Amendment right to religious freedom. They even used the Department of Justice to target peaceful people of faith, specifically Christians,” White House spokesperson Taylor Rogers said in a statement Sunday, obtained by Libbey Dean of NewsNation, The Hill’s sister network.

    On Capitol Hill, the House has 11 legislative days scheduled before the government funding deadline on Sept. 30. Amid the grind to finding a deal, leaders on both sides of the aisle are indicating they would back a short-term continuing resolution, so long as it includes no substantial funding cuts.

    In the House, Monday is the deadline set by the Oversight Committee for the estate of Jeffrey Epstein to turn over files. Read here for more on where the fight over the Epstein documents heads next.
