Democrats and Republicans confident they can pass deal to avert US debt default via IrishTimesBiz
But moderate lawmakers from Republican and Democratic parties indicated that they would endorse the agreement, suggesting it has sufficient support to pass into law.
Mr Johnson defended the deal on its merits. “This bill is a series of pretty substantial conservative wins – there is no way in which this bill moves American society in a more liberal or progressive way compared to the status quo,” he said. Many lawmakers are still undecided and are withholding judgment until they have more time to study the bill.
On the Democratic side, there has been some progressive hand-wringing about some of the concessions agreed by Biden. But expressions of support, even if halfhearted, were rolling in on Sunday.
