White House officials tell Senate Republicans that if a deal is not reached with Democrats on coronavirus relief by Friday, negotiations will likely stop.
"I think at this point we're either going to get serious about negotiating and get an agreement in principle," Chief of Staff Mark Meadows told reporters Wednesday."I've become extremely doubtful that we'll be able to make a deal if it goes well beyond Friday."
"If there is not a deal by Friday, there won't be a deal," Blunt said."At some point you have to set a deadline or just continue this Kabuki dance every day and nobody wants to." Treasury Secretary Steve Mnuchin and White House Chief of Staff Mark Meadows take questions from news reporters following a series of meetings on efforts to pass new coronavirus aid legislation on Capitol Hill in Washington, July 28, 2020.This follows Tuesday's announcement that the negotiators had agreed to reach an agreement, if one is possible, by Friday.
Senators who met with administration officials said the negotiations on Wednesday seemed almost identical to days prior.
