Congressional Republicans returning to Washington on Monday will tackle their toughest test yet, negotiating a massive tax bill package to deliver President Donald Trump a signature legislative victory.

Efforts to renew Trump’s landmark 2017 tax cuts and secure additional reductions he’s promised were temporarily sidelined while lawmakers worked to narrowly avert a government shutdown earlier this month.

Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent and Trump’s National Economic Council director, Kevin Hassett are set to meet Tuesday with House and Senate Republican leaders and their top tax writers to try to resolve differences over the scale of cuts and ways of paying for them, according to two people familiar with the meeting.

Bloomberg Washington Correspondents Joe Mathieu and Kailey Leinz deliver insight and analysis on the latest headlines from the White House and Capitol Hill, including conversations with influential lawmakers and key figures in politics and policy. On this edition, Joe and Kailey speak with:

  • Republican Congressman Bill Huizenga of Michigan as lawmakers return to Washington to kickoff reconciliation negotiations.
  • Bloomberg Politics Contributors Rick Davis and Jeanne Sheehan Zaino as President Donald Trump holds a cabinet meeting Monday at the White House.
  • Bloomberg's Saleha Mohsin interviews Chair of the White House Council of Economic Advisers Stephen Miran about the Trump economic agenda.
