WASHINGTON, Feb 6 (Reuters) - U.S. Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid said on Friday he believed the Senate would "be able to work something out" for a deal on the huge economic stimulus package sought by President Barack Obama.
"We've made progress since last night ... I think we're going to be able to work something out. I feel very comfortable about that," Reid said as the Senate resumed talks on the Democratic-sponsored economic rescue plan.
Moderate Democrats and Republicans are seeking to compromise on cuts to the package -- now valued at $937 billion -- which some lawmakers have criticized as focused too much on new government spending.
