Infrastructure negotiations drag on as Biden meets with Democrats on Capitol Hill
CNN
President Joe Biden is on Capitol Hill on Friday afternoon meeting with Democrats, as congressional leaders scramble to secure a last-minute deal on a major economic package and find a way to resolve divisions between moderates and progressives that have put passage of the package and a separate bipartisan infrastructure bill in jeopardy.
Biden traveled to Capitol Hill in the afternoon to speak with members of the House Democratic Caucus, as Democratic leaders and White House officials labor to strike a deal on the economic framework that they hope can unlock enough votes for infrastructure. Two sources familiar with ongoing talks told CNN that a deal on the so-called framework of the economic package isn't finished or imminent at this current moment.
