Two days after breaking off talks with President Barack Obama on a $3 trillion-plus deficit reduction deal, House Speaker John Boehner said Sunday his last offer remains on the table as pressure mounted to avert a looming government default.
No formal negotiations were scheduled for Sunday, but Boehner told "Fox News Sunday" he intended to propose a way forward in the afternoon. Boehner also planned a conference call with the House Republican caucus at 4:30 p.m., according to congressional aides.
Both Boehner, R-Ohio, and Treasury Secretary Tim Geithner said a comprehensive deficit deal that would bring Republican support for raising the federal debt ceiling was still an option.
