With debt held by the public having just surpassed 100% of GDP on a sustained basis for the first time since World War II, Representative Bill Huizenga (MI-04) and Maya MacGuineas, president of the Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget, will spotlight our nation’s troubling debt and deficit problem. They will speak about the potential ramifications if the debt is not addressed and discuss how real, meaningful progress on this front can be achieved in today’s contentious political climate.
