Bipartisanship is the song of September.

But as President Donald Trump amps up his outreach to Democrats, members on both sides of the aisle remain skeptical of his intentions. And the likelihood that his efforts change the hyperpartisan environment on Capitol Hill appears slim.

Faced with a busy month, Congress has moved faster at meeting a number of key deadlines than many had initially thought. Members exhibited a bipartisan spirit — though not entirely on the terms GOP leadership might have wanted — that previously seemed difficult in the wake of a bitter battle over the fate of the U.S. health care system.

Republicans and Democrats came together to pass a short-term continuing resolution and debt ceiling extension. That package included an extension of the National Flood Insurance Program, something viewed as necessary in the wake of two major hurricanes, and a $25 billion disaster relief package intended to help areas hit by Hurricanes Harvey and Irma.
