Stay tuned for a message from the American Investment Council after the show.

Good Monday morning. I'm Jake Sherman and welcome to your political playbook audio briefing.

And I'm Anna Palmer. ABC has enabbed the first interview with Joe Biden and Kamala Harris.

David Muir is interviewing the duo and will air next Sunday from 8 to 9 p.m. It's notable 60 minutes isn't

And as of now, there will be a USPS hearing August 24th. Weekend sessions are rare.

House Dems have an 1130 a.m. caucus call to discuss this all.

mail-in voting. The Boston Globe is reporting a Massachusetts Attorney General is discussing a possible

lawsuit with other states to prevent USPS cutbacks. The politics here go beyond mail-in-balance. Everyone

gets mail, so lots of people are impacted when USPS cuts back on service, rural districts especially.
