Happy Monday! As you get ready for the week ahead, here’s a roundup of everything we’re paying attention to:

CONGRESS: both the House and Senate are out today and have yet to reach a deal to avert a government shutdown. Donald Trump released a statement demanding Republicans shut down the government to 'defund' his criminal prosecutions.

THE WHITE HOUSE: President Biden will travel to Arizona this week and deliver a speech on the work we must do together to strengthen our democracy.

THE 2024 CAMPAIGN: a new Washington Post poll revealed that Donald Trump holds a double-digit lead over Biden.

DEMOCRACY: five Election denier Assembly members in Wisconsin have circulated an impeachment resolution against the state’s top election official, Meagan Wolfe. Extremists have been pushing to fire Wolfe after she refused to embrace Trump’s Big Lie that the 2020 election was stolen.

It’s clear, John: our democracy is fragile at every level of government – and it’s never been more urgent to elect Democratic Secretaries of State who will serve as the last line of defense from extremists.
