REUTERS\/Evelyn Hockstein<\/figcaption><p>WASHINGTON (Reuters) -U.S. Senator Roy Blunt, a Republican involved in infrastructure talks with the White House, said on Sunday that he believes Republicans and the Biden administration have \u201ca week or 10 days\u201d to overcome differences and agree on a bipartisan infrastructure plan.<\/p>\n<p>The White House said late last week that it had pared down President Joe Biden\u2019s initial $2.25 trillion infrastructure proposal to $1.7 trillion in a bid to get a deal with Republicans. But a group of Senate Republicans including Blunt dismissed the gesture as insufficient.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI do think we\u2019ve got about a week or 10 days to decide if we can work together on this or not,\u201d Blunt said in an interview with the television program \u201cFox News Sunday.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Biden\u2019s sweeping proposal would not only include roads, bridges and other projects but would also address climate change and social services including elder care. Senate Republicans have rejected the plan, arguing for a narrower approach aimed at traditional projects and proposed their own $568 billion plan.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOur biggest gap is not the money. Our biggest gap is defining what infrastructure is,\u201d Blunt said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf we get to a definition of infrastructure that the country would have always accepted, that becomes a much narrower space than it appears to be right now,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.reuters.com\/article\/us-usa-biden-infrastructure\/u-s-senate-republican-sees-7-10-day-window-for-infrastructure-deal-idUSKCN2D40C9\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Read Full Article<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>FILE PHOTO: U.S. Senator Roy Blunt (R-MO) faces reporters after the Senate Republican lunch on Capitol Hill in Washington, U.S., May 18, 2021.
