WASHINGTON — Over the next month, President Joe Biden will try to get his stalled policy agenda moving again, prevent a harmful government shutdown and raise the nation’s debt ceiling to avoid economic catastrophe.
It’s a tumultuous stretch that could define — and possibly derail — his presidency.
Biden, who was already grappling with the chaotic withdrawal from Afghanistan and rising wave of coronavirus infections, is now plunging headfirst into a multitude of thorny challenges on Capitol Hill, testing his administration at a time when his approval rating has already hit new lows in recent polls.
