- EVENT: (U.S. Debt Ceiling Negotiations, Current): The United States has already reached its statutory debt ceiling. The Treasury Department has been taking extraordinary measures to keep all government services funded and to continue to make all interest payments in a timely fashion. Republicans have passed a debt ceiling increase bill in the House, but it includes spending limits that are untenable to Democrats.

At the time of this writing, there are reports that a deal is imminent.
