WILLIAMSBURG, Va., Feb 6 (Reuters) - U.S. House of Representatives Speaker Nancy Pelosi on Friday said it was her "understanding" that the Senate would "produce a bill today" on economic stimulus.
Pelosi, speaking to reporters, said she spoke with Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid earlier in the day, which led her to believe the Senate would pass the measure promptly.
House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer said that negotiators from the House and Senate would begin crafting a compromise bill on Monday, with the goal of sending legislation to President Barack Obama by the end of next week.
