Wednesday, 16 Oct 2013 | 9:41 AM GOP senators hope to have deal announced by noon. U.S. Senate negotiations on legislation to raise the country's debt limit and reopen govt agencies are nearing completion and a deal could be announced soon, senior Senate Democratic aide said on Wednesday. Republican senators are aiming to announce a deal by noon Wednesday. There were multiple reports that the Senate bill would get a quick vote in the Hse, potentially bringing a rapid end to the crisis. (Read more: CNBC Explains the debt ceiling) The Democratic aide, who asked not to be identified, added that there were ``indications'' that once a deal is announced, the Senate might be able to move quickly to pass it. That could mean that Tea Party activists, such as Republican Senator Ted Cruz, do not intend to throw up procedural roadblocks. Stocks surged, with major markets more than 1.1% higher and the S& P 500 nearing record highs. (What are markets doing now? Click here) |

Washington (CNN) -- [Breaking news update 11:50 a.m.] House Majority Leader John Boehner is " struggling" to come up with enough votes to pass a GOP counterproposal to a possible Senate agreement to reopen the government and avoid a U.S. default, a House Republican leadership aide and other sources told CNN's Dana Bash and Deirdre Walsh.

?Sounds like everything the president asked for,? Representative Blake Farenthold, a Texas Republican aligned with the Tea Party movement, said yesterday. Obama has insisted that Congress raise the $16.7 trillion U.S. debt limit without add-ons and that stopgap spending bills be free of policy conditions. Boehner OptionsA Senate agreement would put pressure on Hse Speaker John Boehner, who has a 232-200 Republican majority. He may have to decide whether to side with hardliners insistent on changes to Obamacare or rely on Democratic votes to pass a bipartisan Senate plan through the Hse. Hse Republicans also may consider making changes and sending the plan back to the Senate. Reid and McConnell may release the plan?s details as early as today. Any one senator could push a final vote until at least Oct. 18, after the debt ceiling is breached though before U.S. runs out of cash and begins missing payments between Oct. 22 and Oct. 31. Hse Republicans were meeting at 9 a.m. in the Capitol and may consider separate debt-limit legislation on the floor. Senators will meet in party caucuses. |

?We?ve made tremendous progress,? Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, a Nevada Democrat, said yesterday on the Senate floor with his Republican counterpart, Mitch McConnell of Kentucky. ?We are not there yet.?
Senate leaders are poised to bring a halt to the fiscal standoff, and now must race the clock to sell the plan to lawmakers before U.S. borrowing authority runs out this week. Lawmakers would be required to hold budget talks by Dec. 13, fund the government through Jan. 15, 2014, and extend the nation?s borrowing authority until Feb. 7, 2014, according to a person familiar with the Senate talks who spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss the concept. U.S. lawmakers, who have governed from fiscal crisis to fiscal crisis for more than two years, may be setting up more crises in the near future. The agreement would delay the next major deadline -- the Jan. 15 lapse in government funding -- until after the holiday shopping season. |

Tuesday, 15 Oct 2013 | 11:28 http://www.cnbc.com/id/101087385 CNBC's John Harwood says the lack of a specific proposal from House Speaker John Boehner's brief appearance before reporters indicates continued divisions within the GOP, strengthening the hand of the Senate.
President Barack Obama will meet with House Democratic leaders at 3:15 p.m. EDT, including Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi and Rep. Steny Hoyer. The back-and-forth came as the partial shutdown entered its third week and less than two days away, said Treasury Department. While market (DOW) Investors wait for Washington to get act together.
