Debt ceiling negotiations remain contentious between White House and Republicans.

House Republicans and the White House are still at odds over reaching a consensus on a plan to address the debt ceiling as the threat of a historic default on the nation's debt grows. The GOP negotiators are resuming talks with Biden administration officials on the White House campus in hopes of brokering a deal to avert a default on the country's $31.4 trillion debt. The GOP demands to slash federal spending rather than freeze it at current levels, and again vowed not to bring a clean bill solely addressing the debt limit to the House floor, as the White House and Democrats have been pushing for.
