United States President Joe Biden has confirmed reaching an agreement with House Speaker Kevin McCarthy to raise the debt ceiling over a two-year period until January 1, 2025. The deal is poised for a Congressional vote following discussions between the Democratic president and the Republican speaker on Sunday evening. The negotiators are rushing to draft and publish the bill’s text, with a House vote expected on Wednesday.

President Biden expressed optimism about the agreement, emphasizing that it averts the unprecedented risk of a federal government default. The deal aims to secure enough votes before the June 5 deadline, preventing potential financial market disruptions and an international financial crisis.

The agreement, a result of weeks of negotiations, includes spending cuts and seeks to address concerns from both progressive Democrats and hard-right Republicans. The 99-page bill proposes measures such as reclaiming unused COVID-19 funds, expediting the permit process for certain energy projects, and introducing additional work requirements for food aid programs targeting impoverished Americans.

Analysts highlight the potential consequences of a default, including job losses, increased borrowing and unemployment rates, and a substantial decline in the stock market, which could wipe out trillions of dollars in household wealth. The agreement, if passed, is expected to mitigate these risks.

Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell praised the agreement and urged swift action in the Senate following its approval in the House. House Speaker McCarthy, dismissing internal party opposition, expressed confidence that a majority of Republicans would support the bill, emphasizing its strength and bipartisan appeal.

The delicate balance of power in the House and Senate necessitates support from moderates on both sides, as narrow margins leave little room for dissent from hardliners. Progressive Democrats, while expressing reservations about certain aspects of the deal, acknowledged positive elements such as preserving Medicaid from benefit cuts and expanding the safety net for veterans and homeless individuals. Notably, the agreement adds work requirements to food aid for some individuals aged 50 to 54, a point of contention for some Democrats, but White House officials argue that the impact is consistent with existing laws.
