House Democrats to meet with Biden to talk about COVID-19 aid
House Democrats will head to the White House on Friday for a meeting with Biden to discuss his $1.9 trillion COVID-19 rescue package, sources familiar confirm to ABC News.
This will be Biden's first in-person meeting with House Democrats since being sworn in. The meeting includes House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Democratic Leader Steny Hoyer, and other party leaders and committee chairs.
Biden met with a group of 10 Republican senators on Monday who offered a counterproposal to the president's relief bill and with 11 Democratic Senate leaders on Wednesday.
"We'll get Republican support," Biden said Wednesday of negotiations over his bill. "I think we'll get some Republicans."
