Episode 22 | 8m 42s

After weeks of brinkmanship, posturing, and intense negotiation, President Biden will soon sign into law a bipartisan bill that lifts the country’s debt limit and averts what could have been an economic disaster. The panel recaps the battle and discusses how it could influence future debt negotiations.
