Last week, the heads of the House and Senate Budget Committees — Rep. Paul Ryan, R-Wis., and Sen. Patty Murray, D-Wash. — and the ranking members of the committees had breakfast to discuss the path forward for the budget conference.

As part of the deal struck to reopen the government and raise the debt ceiling last week, the budget conference committee is required to produce a report by Dec. 13.
