Committee:

SIFMA joined a group of 62 trade associations representing America’s business community to urge Congress to raise the federal debt limit. The group of organizations spanning a full spectrum of the U.S. markets strongly agree that the failure to increase the statutory debt limit in a timely fashion could have a significant and long‐lasting negative impact on the U.S. economy.
