The 2024 Presidential Debate

The 2024 Presidential Debate

During last night’s debate, both candidates talked about their economic ideas, but neither laid out a plan for how they would pay for their proposals or how to tackle our $35 trillion national debt.

With interest costs on the debt on track to reach historic highs over the next decade, America’s fiscal future is a critical issue for our next president. As interest rises, it crowds out important public and private investments that can fuel economic growth. We already spend more on interest than on Medicaid or veterans’ benefits, and this fiscal year was the first in which interest costs surpassed what we spent on defense.
