Debt deadlock continues as potential border crisis looms

Episode 19 | 15m 33s

In Washington, it’s crunch time for President Biden and Congressional leaders to reach an agreement on raising the country’s borrowing limit. With less than three weeks to go before the U.S. is expected to run out of money, a second round of talks has been postponed until next week. Plus, there's another potential crisis looming at the border as the pandemic-era deportation policy has expired.

Major funding for “Washington Week with The Atlantic” is provided by Consumer Cellular, Otsuka, Kaiser Permanente, the Yuen Foundation, and the Corporation for Public Broadcasting.
