joe biden is looking for. let's get to the white house and cnn's jas men wright. jas men, good morning. chance for a bipartisan breakthrough for president biden with the meeting with shelli more capito this week. >> reporter: that's right, boris, is comes at a critical time. these two sides are far apart on whatever president biden can proceed with whatever priority before midterms before a fight before congress. yesterday, president biden rejected the latest offer from republicans that totaled about $150 billion. and included that $50 billion increase for new spending, making that total 300. but that fell short of what president biden wanted, right? he wanted $1.4 trillion for this bill. with $1 trillion in new spending. so, yesterday, president biden spoke with senator shelli moore capito, the republican lead for negotiations. in a statement released afterwards white house press secretary jen psaki wrote that the current offer did not meet the objectives to grow the economy, tackle the climate crisis and create new jobs. he indicated to senator capito that he would continue to engage

let's bring in jasmine wright live at the white house for us. the president met with senator joe president thinks both of those key vote democratic senators for that he is efforts up to this point, but he conveyed the urgent city in which he wants to see these two issues have some movement. because remember, like it or not, kyrsten sinema and joe manchin have an outsized role in what president biden can do, what happens to his $4 trillion economic agenda and also what happens to those social priorities like voting rights. so on infrastructure, they are both a part of that bipartisan group that offered a proposal that was much smaller than president biden's original for infrastructure, but president biden in these separate meetings with these two, he really brought up policy issues but also those pay-fors, how to pay for it, that has been a sticking point of these negotiations overall. remember the white house now says that they do not want to increase user fees like gas taxes because that would increase money on the middle class, and republicans say that they don't want to raise
