House Majority Leader Eric Cantor:
“My question to you is where’s the president?”
“We continue to hear from him and the White House that we’re going to meet you half way.”
Majority Whip Kevin McCarthy:
“They came down with a big car load of people,” “They had a meeting. The vice president is the main negotiator. The vice president is not even in the country today. We have less than a week-and-a-half to go. You ask the press secretary at the White House, ‘well who’s the lead negotiator with the vice president gone?’ Can’t tell you that.”
