President Joe Biden is refusing to negotiate over the federal government's obligation to pay its debts, while Democratic Rep. Abigail Spanberger of Virginia is calling for the House's chief administrative officer to withhold pay for members of Congress until the looming crisis over the debt ceiling is resolved. House GOP leaders are pushing a plan to raise the debt limit through March 2024, but the plan is dead on arrival in the Democratic-led Senate. Speculation is growing that a potential deal could be reached, but President Biden is adamant that he will not negotiate over the federal budget.
