Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer post-meeting press conference

Following a private meeting Tuesday with President Donald Trump, congressional Democrat leaders House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer claimed that the president has agreed to spend up to $2 trillion on a infrastructure deal of some type.

"We agreed on a number, which was very, very, good. $2 trillion for infrastructure. Originally, we had started a little lower, and even the President was eager to push it up to $2 trillion. That is a very good thing," Schumer exuberantly said at a press conference held outside the White House.
