US agency sees ‘significant risk’ in 1st half of June amid debt limit crisis

US agency sees ‘significant risk’ in 1st half of June amid debt limit crisis

The U.S. Congressional Budget Office (CBO) sees “significant risk” concerning the authorities’s debt obligations within the first half of June amid the debt restrict disaster.

The non-partisan federal company mentioned it initiatives “if the debt limit remains unchanged, there is a significant risk that at some point in the first two weeks of June, the government will no longer be able to pay all of its obligations.”

“The extent to which the Treasury will be able to fund the government’s ongoing operations will remain uncertain throughout May, even if the Treasury ultimately runs out of funds in early June,” it mentioned in its report titled Federal Debt and the Statutory Limit.

The CBO warned that if the debt restrict will not be raised or suspended earlier than the Treasury’s money and extraordinary measures are exhausted, the U.S. authorities must delay making funds for some actions, default on its debt obligations, or each.

President Joe Biden and Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen in latest months each urged Congress to take swift motion to lift the debt restrict with the intention to keep away from the US defaulting on its debt obligations.

“America is not a deadbeat nation. We pay our bills… This nation has never defaulted on its debt. It never will,” Biden informed reporters on the White House on Tuesday after his assembly with congressional leaders.

Yellen mentioned Sunday that Congress’s failure to lift the nation’s debt restrict may result in defaulting on its debt and should trigger “calamity” for the world’s greatest economic system, including “It’s widely agreed that financial and economic chaos would ensue.”
