Week Ahead in Washington: June 15

WASHINGTON (Gray DC) - President Donald Trump will head to a resort in Alberta, Canada for the G7 next week. It’s his first visit to our northern border since retaking office Jan. 20. Trump has angered many Canadians by imposing tariffs on imports and publicly discussing desires to make it the 51st state.

The House is on recess, but the Senate is in session to work on President Donald Trump’s budget he calls “one big, beautiful bill.” The legislation includes more money for the military and border security. The bill would also cut Medicaid and food assistance programs.

TikTok’s on the clock. Thursday is the deadline for the Chinese company ByteDance to sell the platform or it will shut down in the U.S. Trump has signed two previous extensions and could sign another one ahead of the deadline. Critics warn TikTok users’ personal information is vulnerable if ByteDance retains ownership of the app.

Thursday is also Juneteenth; the holiday celebrates the ending of slavery in the U.S.
