stamp cuts for green energy tax credits, which are broadly popular in among americans among their voters for a proposal that is not going to go anywhere in the senate, which is controlled by democrats. and so they think that mccarthy is beholden to his conservative base, which got him in there. um by you know the skin of his teeth and that this is not the proposal that they want. it s not like these moderate republicans want to are there, not in biden s camp of wanting a total clean increase. they want some budget cuts, but they don t think that these are particularly wise, politically or policy. wise got it, so it s less about policy and more about preservation. okay, got that. um let s talk about the democrats now president biden. his plan has been his policy on this has been a clean debt ceiling increase. we re not negotiating on it. there are more democrats now who are concerned who say that at least there s a scale here a spectrum i should say at
least talk to him, if not some people saying, just sit down and negotiate. is this? forcing the white house to question the 10 ability of their plan of no negotiations? i think that was always the posture that can t hold forever, and they actually have been talking to mccarthy s office and his aides. you re not . you don t see biden talking to mccarthy s chief of staff. it s usually on the level that you re expected to, but the there is concern in the white house that they are going to hit the debt ceiling closer, you know sooner rather than later. um we re talking about june july because federal government tax revenue is not as strong this year because of a slowing economy or the go up. the growth is slowing. and so i think moderate democrats think. hey you should at least try to negotiate with mccarthy. even if it is to show that, uh, in the white house s
fight. more democrats are saying president biden should sit down and negotiate with house speaker kevin mccarthy. the white house shot down his debt ceiling proposal. meanwhile mccarthy is facing his first real challenge as speaker, he struggling to lock in enough republican votes to support his plan is planning for a vote on the bill this week. let s talk about it now with political white house reporter daniel lippman daniel always good to see you. so alright, $1.5 trillion increase in exchange for 4.5 trillion in spending cuts does not appear to have the votes. it s mostly the moderates who are holding out. not sure taking a look at what is their top concern. is it singular? what is it that they re waiting for? don t see in this package that would earn their support. well they re not going to tell you this, but they re really concerned politically because they re going to be on record if they vote for this is voting for food
