US to hit debt limit on August 1, Yellen warns Sat 24th July 2021 | 12:00 AM
Washington, (UrduPoint / Pakistan Point News - 23rd Jul, 2021 ) :The US government will hit the Federal borrowing limit on August 1, forcing officials to take extraordinary measures until lawmakers increase the level, Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen said Friday.
Congress suspended the debt limit in 2019 but that exemption expires in about two weeks, and Yellen warned of dire consequences if Congress fails to act. If Congress has not acted to suspend or increase the debt limit by Monday, August 2, 2021, Treasury will need to start taking certain additional extraordinary measures in order to prevent the United Statesfrom defaulting on its obligations, Yellen said in a letter to Democratic and Republican lawmakers in Congress.
