On this episode of the South Carolina Lede for September 1, 2026: the Associated Press reports that on Congress’ to-do list is likely a stopgap funding bill to keep things funded through early December; we may see the Senate-approved, expanded Russian sanctions bill, named after Sen. Lindsey Graham; we’ll also be watching to see how Congress handles the pending deadline for the recriminalization of hemp-derived THC products; and more!
