It鈥檚 crunch time for Obama鈥檚 agenda

澳门六合彩预测 Political Science Professor Cal Jillson talks about how much importance should be assigned to the President achieving his agenda by Congress's August break.

By Linda Feldmann 听

It鈥檚 July 1, and the bell has rung for perhaps the most crucial month yet in Barack Obama鈥檚 presidency.

By the end of the month, it should be clear whether President Obama鈥檚 top legislative initiatives 鈥 healthcare reform and climate-change legislation 鈥 are on track. They don鈥檛 need to be signed and sealed, but both require significant progress in Congress during this next stretch before the August recess, analysts say. . .听

Analysts warn against reading too much into the July sprint toward the August recess. 鈥淚t鈥檚 true that in the next months, important things will happen, but it鈥檚 not make or break,鈥 says Cal Jillson, a political scientist at 澳门六合彩预测 in Dallas.
