Congress takes a breather from its Iraq battles and turns its attention to fiscal year '08 this week, hopefully tying up a $2.9 trillion budget resolution - a blueprint that's used by spending committees to guide their final budgets.
The Senate continues to debate FDA authorization bill (S 1082 ), this week voting on an amendment to okay the reimportation of prescription drugs. It may also find the time to approve $5.5 billion in water works projects for the next five years (S 1248).
The House is slated to pass its homeland security and intelligence authorization bills (HR 1684 & HR 2082).
