Pres. Trump and Democratic congressional leaders to meet, looking for common ground on infrastructure funding.
Top congressional Democrats House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer head to the White House Wednesday morning to meet with President Donald Trump for a second round of talks on President Donald Trump’s proposed $2 trillion infrastructure plan.
"Once Congress has passed USMCA, we should turn our attention to a bipartisan infrastructure package," Trump said.
Pelosi and Schumer first met with Trump on infrastructure three weeks ago in a meeting that they called “constructive” and first announced a tentative plan to spend $2 trillion to tackle U.S. infrastructure in a “big and bold way.” Pelosi and Schumer said they are looking forward to hearing from the president on how he plans to pay for this infrastructure package in Wednesday's meeting.
