Biden, Congress debt talks likely to resume Tuesday
President Biden and congressional leaders will likely resume talks tomorrow [TUE] at the White House over the debt limit. No meeting has been finalized, but the president said talks are likely to resume this week ahead of his Wednesday departure for the G7 summit in Japan. Mr. Biden and the top four lawmakers were supposed to meet on Friday, but that meeting was abruptly postponed so staff-level talks could continue. The president said he’s hopeful Congress can raise the debt ceiling and avoid a government default.
