No, that's what budget negotiations are for. The debt ceiling is about servicing the debt that has already been incurred. Biden submitted his budget proposal for next year like almost 2 months ago. The GOP has yet to outline their budget proposal, but when they do then both sides sit down to workout that budget.
- tivert 3y ago> No, that's what budget negotiations are for. The debt ceiling is about servicing the debt that has already been incurred. That's a false distinction. It's all just legislation, and there's no real reason this needs to be here and that needs to be there except all the branches of government agree they want to do it that way. If you think I'm wrong, point to the Constitutional provision that spells out debt ceiling increases are not the place to negotiate budget.
