(RTTNews) -  "Senate Democrats remain hopeful that our Republican colleagues will work with us this week to take swift action and pass legislation to help businesses thrive and create jobs," he added.

Additionally, Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ken., spoke to reporters after the meeting, saying, " We had a good meeting with the President, and, what I'd like to emphasize is there are some areas of potential agreement."
McConnell specifically pointed to Obama's support for nuclear power, offshore drilling, clean coal technology and trade agreements.

"Obviously, there will be areas of disagreement," he said. "But, emphasizing the things that we might be able to work on together, I would mention those four areas, all of which I think would be job generators."
