Negotiators for House Republicans walked out of debt limit talks with the White House on Friday, despite signaling optimism earlier in the week.Insisting that “we can’t be spending more money next year,” House Speaker Kevin McCarthy said negotiations were on “pause” because of a lack of “movement” by the White House.
News coverage often described the impasse as “abrupt,” since both sides had projected optimism as recently as Thursday. However, negotiations were complicated when the conservative House Freedom Caucus called for halting debt limit discussions unless the Senate passed House Republicans’ spending cuts bill. On the other side of the aisle, Progressive Democrats are reportedly concerned about concessions Biden may make to House Republicans.
