TL;DR Summary

Lawmakers return to Washington with a hefty legislative agenda, including addressing the fallout from a recent leak of classified U.S. intelligence documents and the looming debt limit crisis. Senators are expected to receive a classified briefing on the leak Wednesday. Two senators return to Washington after medical absences. California Democratic Sen. Dianne Feinstein has asked to be temporarily replaced on the Judiciary Committee so that President Biden's nominees don't remain in limbo while she is out. House Republicans push forward on messaging bills, including legislation that would effectively prohibit school athletic programs from allowing transgender women to participate in women's school sports programs.
