Biden to talk again with Capito on Friday to try to forge 'infrastructure' deal
Fox News
President Biden and Sen. Shelley Moore Capito, R-W.Va., had a "constructive" meeting Wednesday at the White House in their effort to forge a bipartisan deal on infrastructure spending and intend to talk again Friday, according to the Biden Administration.
Biden and Capito, the lead Senate GOP negotiator, met one-on-one in the Oval Office for about an hour to see if there's a way forward on how much to spend on fixing the country's roads and bridges, as well as on other matters, and how to pay for the new spending. Heading into the meeting, the two proposals from Democrats and Republicans were hundreds of billions of dollars apart. But the White House Wednesday signaled progress and said the talks will continue.More Related News
