President-elect Obama and Vice President-elect Biden will meet with congressional leaders on Capitol Hill Monday, reportedly to discuss an economic recovery package. Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid was asked this morning on "Meet the Press" about the forthcoming stimulus bill, rumored to cost some $1 trillion, and he said it would cost as much as need be to get the economy back on track.
Those expected to attend the meeting include: from the Senate, Reid, Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, Assistant Majority Leader Dick Durbin, and Minority Whip Jon Kyl; and from the House, Speaker Nancy Pelosi, Majority Leader Steny Hoyer, Minority Leader John Boehner, Majority Whip Jim Clyburn and Minority Whip Eric Cantor.
Obama will meet with economic advisers and Cabinet members at his Transition offices in downtown Washington later in the day.
