Con 63 votos a favor y 36 en contra el Senado de EE.UU. ha aprobado la noche de este jueves un anteproyecto de ley para suspender el techo de deuda y evitar un impago.
Ahora la iniciativa, que la jornada anterior fue avalada por la Cámara de Representantes y propone suspender el límite de endeudamiento hasta el 1 de enero de 2025, pasará al presidente Joe Biden para ser firmada. Tras formalizarse este último trámite, el Gobierno estadounidense podrá seguir cumpliendo con sus obligaciones.
Tras concluir la votación, el mandatario emitió un comunicado en el que celebró el avance del anteproyecto. “Nadie consigue todo lo que quiere en una negociación, pero no nos equivoquemos: este acuerdo bipartidista es una gran victoria para nuestra economía y para el pueblo estadounidense”, subrayó. Asimismo, señaló que espera poder suscribir el documento “tan pronto como sea posible” y que se dirigirá a la nación el viernes.
A diferencia de la elevación del techo de deuda en una cantidad específica, su suspensión permite al Congreso definir un período de tiempo antes del cual el nivel máximo de endeudamiento debe abordarse de nuevo. Este enfoque garantiza que el elevamiento del techo de la deuda no será utilizado para obtener beneficios políticos y que la próxima batalla sobre la cuestión se desatará ya después de las elecciones presidenciales de 2024.
Antes de la votación en ambas cámaras del Congreso, Biden y el presidente de la Cámara de Representantes, el republicano Kevin McCarthy, alcanzaron un acuerdo bipartidista definitivo que incluyó concesiones por ambas partes.
El acuerdo estipula que el gasto no destinado a defensa permanecerá en 2024 a niveles prácticamente iguales a los actuales y se aumentará un 1 % en el ejercicio fiscal de 2025.
Asimismo, la legislación mantendría la financiación de programas de asistencia sanitaria para veteranos, al tiempo que rescindirá unos 28.000 millones de dólares en fondos no comprometidos que fueron aprobados por el Congreso en medio de la pandemia del covid-19.
Por otra parte, el pacto prevé recortes en los planes de financiamiento aprobados anteriormente para el Servicio de Impuestos Internos, algo que exigían desde la bancada republicana. Entre otras concesiones de Biden, destaca la negativa a cancelar las exenciones tributarias introducidas durante el mandato de Donald Trump para las corporaciones y los ricos.
En paralelo, las disposiciones del acuerdo bipartidista sugieren que aquellos estadounidenses que pidieron préstamos para pagar sus estudios tendrán que empezar a devolverlos a finales de verano.
Además, pese a la propuesta republicana de cancelar las subvenciones a las energías renovables, la iniciativa aprobada por el Congreso no introducirá cambios en las provisiones de la Ley de Reducción de la Inflación en materia de clima y energía limpia.
Después de que, a finales de enero, se alcanzara el límite de deuda de 31,4 billones de dólares, el Departamento del Tesoro empezó a tomar “medidas extraordinarias” para seguir pagando las facturas del Gobierno federal.
El Gobierno federal estadounidense está sujeto a una normativa legal que regula el nivel de endeudamiento que puede asumir. Una vez que se llegue al límite y agote las formas de pagar sus cuentas, el Congreso debe levantar el techo para que el Ejecutivo continúe pidiendo prestado para cumplir con sus obligaciones.

They should rescind Congress/Senate payroll. Turn in ALL dark money. There…no more debt. We can start fresh at ZERO!!! Fixed it for you.
How dare you punish the most vulnerable? So much is telling of your character by how you treat the least of us. Christian’s??? Hardly!
Has anyone noticed that the debt ceiling bill SUSPENDS the debt limit for 2 years? If this thing passes the senate, we are giving the government that got us $31 trillion in the hole a blank check. This happens at a time when we have a presidential election coming up, we are sending hundreds of billions overseas to fight a proxy war, we have an uncontrolled flood of illegal immigrants that will have to be taken care of so politicians don’t look cruel and heartless toward the poor masses, we have massive infrastructure problems, we live in a time where people vote for the person who promises the most goodies “for free,” and the government seems to be determined to shut down all fossil fuel power plants without a viable alternative to replace their production. What could possibly go wrong?
A bill that may curb inflation, may reduce debt….super for families, we all need a break from Bidenflation
97 days Biden would not even attend a meeting or negotiate.
Si no equilibran los gastos ingresos-egresos y viven gastando de más, terminarán como nosotros en Argentina. Además la ayuda, muchas veces monumental, a terceros países no hará que estos actúen en forma recíproca y agradezcan a EEUU. Argentina consiguió todos los dólares que pudo del Fondo Monetario Internacional, ahora se volcó a China y así ya tenemos una “misteriosa” base militar en el sur y varias entregas más en marcha. CLAUDIO KUSSMAN.
These politicians ought to be made to live in poor neighborhoods and try to survive on food stamps which don’t cover the high food prices and also pay rent on substandard housing
How’s that? With the extremely tiny amount of money they took from the IRS? Don’t worry .. the Dems will still hire 78k new IRS agents to ruin middle class Americans and your children will be slaves to China since our debt will climb FIVE TRILLION dollars if not more by 2025, bringing it to a staggering 37 – 40 trillion debt. You obviously have no idea how money and financial responsibility works.
yeop.
They No mention of who pays for this , the poor. No mention of Biden folding like a lawn chair again. Actual praise for Kevin who has just put an economic gun to the country’s head hurting the poor further , while making it easier for billionaires to cheat on their taxes.
How is this a victory if you’re desperately cutting programs that keep American people from drowning? I don’t understand how these government officials can sleep well at night, knowing that they are getting a steady paycheck and they’re able to get raises versus everybody else struggling to keep up prices of rent food.
This is a bill that will eventually destroy the low income . But again if a default would occur it be worse so it’s a dam if you do darn if you don’t . But stop sending money to places that frankly needs to help themselves some . Sending constantly money to Ukraine has got to be cut back . United States now is suffering and seems our government just doesn’t give a rip . Not saying helping other countries is a bad thing by no means but help your own country first . That what you all were voted in office to do .
Sending money to Ukraine for weaponry aid is justified, but that’s not where a chunk of our money went to. The majority of taxpayer money goes to rich people getting tax cuts, which largely is why these recessions happen in the first place.
Why does it always have to be to the detriment of those vulnerable who were already suffering on a regular basis? The dealbreaker for me was the student loan payments resuming. I’m already forced to pay back taxes from my tax returns just because I make too much money working just because I don’t have any dependents, now they’re trying to get me to pay back student loan debt that should of been rid of anyway because Colleges force people to take out loans because they jack up prices for years making College unaffordable. This is grossly unfair and sour grapes, but the bigoted, out-of-touch Boomers out there will make hasty judgments and try to make tone-deaf arguments telling you to adjust to it because they’ve had it easier than future generations like we have now.

Again… It took 90 days fr Biden to accept a meeting to resolve this…
about time
I wonder what Bden gave up
Oh man… 3 months for this????
It seems to me (that) they don’t care about people. They just care about their political ambitions.
They hype us up with hope by voting yes and body slamming that hope in the senate by voting no.
Game, set, and match to. BIDEN

I was really expecting to see a “collapse”.

The passage of this bill was never in question.

Hopefully, this will put us on a path for more fiscal restraint
Patting themselves on the back for doing their job and fleecing american citizens.
Tax the Rich
Term limits
End corporate greed ,and price gouging
End gerrymandering
And the richs will fly the country.

yeop.
brandon aka biden’s approval rating will continue to crash.
You know things are bad when the republicans are claiming victory for simply doing what Congress has always done.
No wonder the country been saved by the Republicans.
Oh yeah…
They No mention of who pays for this , the poor. No mention of Biden folding like a lawn chair again. Actual praise for Kevin who has just put an economic gun to the country’s head hurting the poor further , while making it easier for billionaires to cheat on their taxes.

So sad wages so low working poor are eligible for food stamps no less GOP glee about it VOTE BLUE or continue

That was a secret and you tell the true you can’t keep a secret i love it.
Our Government/Congress is the most Corrupt organization in the World !!! So the bill passed that is good but at what cost to Americans ???????
Agreed
People tend to forget that trump did the same thing 3 times and not one complaint from the republicans
Pretty hypocritical don’t you think?
Now we have a House of Rep that might work with the FED and may actually reduce inflation which would help ALL families…not just a few.
