Following multiple hours-long bipartisan Senate meetings with senior White House aides on a traditional infrastructure package, lawmakers said Wednesday that they have reached a "framework" deal and are headed to the White House to meet with President Joe Biden on Thursday. "We have a framework, and we're going to the White House tomorrow," Sen Mitt Romney, R-Utah, told reporters. "We made significant progress," White House counselor Steve Richetti told ABC News. Three Senate negotiators -- Republicans Susan Collins of Maine, Ohio's Rob Portman and Montana Democrat Jon Tester -- clarified to reporters that there were still some details to be worked out on how the $1.2 trillion package is to be paid for, though all agreed that a deal was at hand.More Related News
