The White House has previously said there would be no negotiations with Republicans on the debt ceiling, that there must be a clean increase to the debt limit, that is, without conditions attached.
Still, White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre said in a briefing Friday that the president "is looking forward to meeting with Speaker McCarthy" about the debt ceiling.
