GOP Seems Ready for Another Debt Limit Fight

But not clear what they'll ask for

|

The United States may now have a budget but it doesn't necessarily mean the government will pay its bills.

At the annual retreat of the  House Republican Caucus in Cambridge, Maryland on Thursday, members seemed ready for another showdown and were unwilling to accept a "clean" debt limit increase, one without any additional legislative language or restrictions. However Republicans were unclear what specific asks they would make in exchange for a debt ceiling vote.
