This week, the president rejected a request from McCarthy to schedule another meeting on the debt limit, instead calling on Republicans to release their budget by the end of the week. Republicans have sought to separate\u00a0their budget resolution from debt limit talks.<\/p>\n<p>The ongoing stalemate with no meeting between McCarthy and Biden since Feb. 1 has put Republicans in a tough spot as they try to get Biden to the negotiating table.<\/p>\n<p>In a Tuesday letter to Biden, McCarthy for the fist time laid out some areas where he would like to negotiate: Cutting nondefense discretionary spending, reclaiming unspent COVID-19 relief funding, strengthening work requirements for <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/social-mediaa\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"1\" title=\"Social Media\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">social<\/a> safety net programs and creating policies to lower energy costs and secure the U.S.-Mexico border to stem the flow of illegal drugs.<\/p>\n<aside class=\"ad-unit ad-unit--mr2_ab\"><\/aside>\n<p>He sent Biden a letter asking for the White House to schedule a meeting on the debt limit by the end of the week.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>McCarthy said that any debt ceiling legislation from the House GOP would be modeled on that letter.<\/p>\n<p>The various ideological factions of the House GOP conference, including leaders of the hardline House Freedom Caucus and more pragmatic Main Street Caucus, have rallied behind McCarthy as he aims to drag Biden to the table.<\/p>\n<aside class=\"ad-unit ad-unit--mr3_ab\"><\/aside>\n<p>But while McCarthy signaled that the House GOP could act alone on legislation, Republicans say that the ultimate goal \u2014 and their expectation \u2014 is that Biden will negotiate.<\/p>\n<p>Rep. Garret Graves (R-La.) said that putting McCarthy\u2019s letter into some form of legislation is \u201cabsolutely an option,\u201d but not an ultimate end point.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m not going to tell you all of our plan B, C, D,\u201d Graves said. \u201cWe can pass something all day long, and the White House is not going to sign it.
