Facing criticism from conservatives, House Speaker Kevin McCarthy put in intense efforts on Tuesday to persuade fellow Republicans to support the debt ceiling and budget agreement he had negotiated with President Joe Biden. McCarthy aimed to gain approval swiftly in order to avert a potentially catastrophic default by the United States.

In a closed-door meeting that lasted over two hours at the Capitol, McCarthy briefed Republicans on the specifics of the agreement, addressed their concerns, and urged them to consider the budgetary savings outlined in the bill, even though they fell short of the expectations of many conservatives.

“We are determined to pass the bill,” McCarthy asserted as he concluded the session, the Associated Press reported.
