Live updates: Trump teases big autism news; clock ticks toward government shutdown

The White House launches Monday into a week of big events, from a major health care announcement to the United Nations General Assembly to a visit from a key U.S. ally.

President Trump and Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. will make an announcement on autism at 4 p.m. Monday. Previewing it on Saturday, Trump said, “I think it’s gonna be one of the most important things that we will do.” Last week, the Wall Street Journal reported officials would release information linking Tylenol to the condition in children.

Ahead of Trump’s big week, which includes a U.N. address on Tuesday morning and a visit from Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan on Thursday, press secretary Karoline Leavitt will hold a press briefing at 1 p.m. Monday.

With eight days of government funding remaining, Congress is on recess and at an impasse on how to avoid a shutdown. While the Senate returns before the Sept. 30 deadline, the House doesn’t. Here’s what to watch for as negotiations continue in the background.
