President Joe Biden will not demand an infrastructure deal or bipartisan outline with Republicans by the time he leaves for a European trip next week, and he might even be negotiating via phone on the sidelines of those meetings.

Biden has said he wants June to be a month of “action” on Capitol Hill, including by sending him a massive infrastructure bill. Top aides, however, have said even if talks led by West Virginia Sen. Shelley Moore Capito fail to produce a deal, the president is aware other Republicans are interested in negotiating.
