He believes that progress has been made and that a deal worthy of the American people is within reach.<\/p>\n<h3>Sticking Points Remain<\/h3>\n<p>Representatives Garret Graves (R-LA) and Patrick McHenry (R-NC) returned early on Saturday to continue talks with McCarthy. While they have come to a &#8220;narrow set&#8221; of disagreements, a few <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/iran-says-theyre-closer-than-weve-been-before-at-securing-new-nuclear-deal\/\" title=\"Iran Says They're \"Closer Than We've Been Before\" at Securing New Nuclear Deal\">sticking points remain<\/a>. McHenry noted that a final deal could be reached in &#8220;hours or days.&#8221;<\/p>\n<h3>The Clock is Ticking<\/h3>\n<p>The House broke for recess on Thursday afternoon for the holiday weekend, but negotiators are feeling the pressure to reach a deal before the &#8220;X-date&#8221; on June 5. Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen updated the deadline from June 1, giving negotiators four extra days to finalize an agreement and get a bill passed through Congress before a possible default.<\/p>\n<h3>Legislative Text to be Released Soon<\/h3>\n<p>Once a deal is reached, legislative text must be released for review for at least 72 hours before being considered for a vote under House rules. McCarthy has remained adamant that members will have 72 hours to review the text before a vote. He hopes to have a vote as soon as Tuesday evening, meaning a deal could be made as early as Saturday.<\/p>\n<p>After passing through the House, the legislation will be sent to the Senate, where it could take a few days before it&#8217;s passed and sent to President Biden&#8217;s desk for his signature.<\/p>\n<p>Despite the holiday weekend, McCarthy and his team will continue working on a deal in Washington.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Stay tuned for updates on the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/exclusive-mitch-mcconnell-led-effort-to-trash-bob-dole-aides-career-over-peripheral-tie-to-january-6\/\" title=\"Exclusive \u2014 Mitch McConnell Led Effort to Trash Bob Dole Aide\u2019s Career over Peripheral Tie to January 6\">debt ceiling negotiations<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>House Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) stated that negotiators are yet to finalize a debt ceiling deal.
