We did have a productive conversation this evening. We do have some honest differences, but I do think we've made some progress. But I want to reiterate there's no agreement on a number and there's no agreement on the policy but there's an intent on both sides to continue to work together to try to resolve this.

Speaker John Boehner discusses the ongoing budget negotiations, acknowledging progress while noting that no agreement has been reached yet.
