The House and Senate are racing toward summer recess, hoping to escape Washington on Friday. But they’ll have to get through the White House’s To-Do List before heading home.

The White House says Republicans filing a lawsuit against the President does not rise to the same level of importance although that’s the one item most likely to pass before vacation.
