Democrats say White House offer on budget deal has 'nonstarters'
Democrats say White House offer on budget deal has 'nonstarters'-politico: Democrats said there are
"nonstarters" in a new White House offer that includes $1.1 trillion
in options to offset spending increases in a two-year spending agreement that
would raise the budget caps and hike the debt limit. The Trump administration’s
demand to offset the spending increases represents a significant hurdle to
finalizing a deal, with the administration seeking at least $150 billion in
cuts.
