TL;DR Summary
House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy has taken the lead in negotiating a bipartisan deal to raise the debt limit, while Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell has remained in the background. The deal would suspend the debt limit until December 2022 and avoid a potential government shutdown. The agreement still needs to be approved by both chambers of Congress.
