FOX-Biden, Capito Likely To Talk Infra Again Today

US

FOX's Chad Pergram tweets: "Biden/Capito likely to talk again today about infrastructure."

  • The announcement of further talks between the president and Republican US Senator Shelly Moore-Capito (R-WV) - who is leading the GOP efforts to reach a bipartisan deal on the multi-trillion dollar infrastructure bill - comes just a day after Capito had stated that "We made a good, robust effort — the biggest infrastructure package ever, with pay-fors we delineated. And instead, it's not enough...We're going to keep talking. But I'm not coming back with anything in the next 24 hours."
  • The two sides remain a significant distance apart, with Biden lowering his initial offer from USD2.3trn to USD1.7tr (all new spending), while the Capito-led offer totals USD928bn over seven years, but with just USD257bn of new spending that Congress was not anticipating already authorising.
  • Should the Biden-Capito talks fail to make any progress, another bipartisan group of senators, led by former GOP presidential candidate Sen. Mitt Romney (R-UT) have said they have a plan to put forward, although as of yet have not released any details on numbers.
