House Speaker Kevin McCarthy told Sen. Joe Manchin (D-WV) that Republican’s would not make cuts to social security or Medicare to offset the debt ceiling during a meeting on Tuesday, according to Punch Bowl News co-founder Jake Sherman.
Sherman noted in a tweet that Manchin also “hopes” President Joe Biden will negotiate with Republicans, who want spending cuts in exchange for their help raising the debt ceiling.
Manchin also said he hopes Biden will negotiate over the debt limit. https://t.co/cObUzQsTAe
