Must-Watch Events in U.S. Politics This Week

With six weeks until Election Day, Vice President Kamala Harris leads former President Donald Trump by 5 points, 49% to 44%, according to a new NBC poll. Harris’ favorability has surged 16 points since July, the largest increase for any candidate since George W. Bush after 9/11. 

Harris is set to unveil new economic proposals on Thursday, expanding her vision for an “opportunity economy.” Meanwhile, Trump is now urging early and mail-in voting, despite previously blaming it for election fraud. 

As for a second debate, Harris has accepted an invitation for October 23, but Trump seems reluctant after their first encounter. 

Additionally, House Speaker Mike Johnson has proposed a stopgap funding bill to prevent a government shutdown before the Sept. 30 deadline, with a vote expected on Wednesday.
