Re: Mixed signals from today’s White House meeting
CNBC的报道:
House Speaker Mike Johnson and Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer had a bipartisan glow about them Wednesday after they and other congressional leaders met with President Joe Biden, where they discussed Ukraine aid, border security, and elements of a deadlocked funding package.
"We had a productive meeting," Johnson, R-La., told reporters minutes after the White House sitdown ended.
"We understand that all these things are important, but we must insist, we must insist that the border be the top priority," the speaker said. "I think we have some consensus around that table."
