WASHINGTON — Budget talks aimed at clearing the way for a federal debt limit increase teetered near collapse Thursday as Representative Eric Cantor, the House majority leader, abandoned the negotiations and top Republicans said they would not give in to a Democratic push for new revenues as part of a compromise.
The decision by Mr. Cantor, one of two Republicans participating in the talks being led by Vice President Joseph R. Biden Jr., jolted the discussions in what was considered to be a crucial week of bargaining as the Aug. 2 deadline for an increase in federal borrowing authority neared.
