Delay in Biden’s debt limit meeting with lawmakers
Friday’s debt limit meeting between President Biden and congressional leaders has been postponed.
After Tuesday’s meeting with House Speaker McCarthy and other top lawmakers, a follow-up meeting was announced for Friday. But late in the day Thursday, the White House said the meeting was postponed to next week. Administration officials described the news as positive with staff members planning to continue discussions through the weekend. The White House and Congress face an approaching deadline to raise the nation’s borrowing authority or risk default.
