Trump's proposed tax cuts face challenges due to potential costs and existing expirations.

Republicans debate fiscal responsibility while considering new tax reductions amidst a looming $4 trillion cost.

Ending Trump's tax cuts would have a negligible effect on the economy over the next decade, according to the Congressional Budget Office.

The federal debt is projected to reach record levels by 2029 and continue rising over the next three decades. Rising debt poses risks to economic growth due to increased interest payments and heightened spending on social safety net programs.

America's national debt nearing $35 trillion raises concerns among CEOs, emphasizing the need for the economy to sustain growth and manage deficits to prevent passing a financial burden to future generations.

The United States is projected to add nearly $19 trillion to its national debt over the next decade due to factors like an aging population and higher interest expenses.

Legislation to curb federal spending and a growing economy are helping to reduce the projected annual deficits over the next decade.

A bipartisan House bill has been introduced as a counterpart to a Senate proposal that aims to provide the Congressional Budget Office (CBO) with easier access to executive branch data.

The bill would exempt CBO from the Privacy Act of 1974, eliminating procedural delays in obtaining information from agencies and enabling the completion of estimates required for legislation.
