By contrast, Republicans want further budget austerity. House Speaker John Boehner: "The looming problems that are affecting our country are still there. We are spending more than what we bring in."
Failure to reach a budget accord would risk another government shutdown in January, when federal spending authority expires once again. Lawmakers of both parties say they have no desire to see federal operations halted a second time, but it remains to be seen whether that desire generates a bipartisan deal that can pass both Houses of a politically-divided Congress.
On global matters, President Obama welcomes Iraqi Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki to the White House Friday.“什么可以帮助我们增长经济，创造工作机会，扩大中产阶级，给年轻人带来更多机会——这些就是我们该投资的地方。”
相比之下，共和党人更希望进一步缩减预算。众议院议长约翰·博纳说：“影响我们国家的那些迫在眉睫的问题依然存在。我们现在入不敷出。”
到明年一月，联邦财务开支授权就将到期，如果无法达成此项预算协议，政府则将面临再次关门的风险。两党立法者都表示不愿看到联邦（政府）再次中断运营工作，但这还要看政治分裂的国会能否通过此次两党协议的内容。
在全球问题上，奥巴马总统欢迎伊拉克总理努里·马利基本周五到访白宫。
