Capitol Report: Infrastructure talks fizzle out between Biden and group of Senate Republicans

President Joe Biden and a group of Republican senators led by West Virginia’s Shelley Moore Capito are no longer negotiating on a possible infrastructure package, though Biden is still aiming to reach a deal on the issue with a different group that includes GOP senators.

Capito said in a statement on Tuesday afternoon that Biden had ended the discussions, adding that he understood that one of her side’s red lines had been not undoing 2017’s tax cuts but he had “continued to respond with offers that included tax increases as his pay for.”
