Quick Glance: Biden rejects Republican spending cuts and warns of a catastrophic government default
- President Biden rejected a Republican plan to cut government spending and extend the debt ceiling on Wednesday, calling the measures "wacko" and threatening a catastrophic federal default.
- "President Biden, Leader Schumer, and Leader Jeffries agree that we won't negotiate over default and Republicans should pass a clean bill like they did three times in the previous administration," a White House readout of the call said, referring to the three times Congress raised the debt limit without Republicans insisting on conditions during the Trump administration.
