US

The Speaker of the House of Representatives Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) will deliver an address on the debt ceiling later today at 1730ET (1430PT, 2230GMT, 0730JST) according to his office. The address comes 24 hours before President Joe Biden delivers his annual State of the Union address to a joint session of Congress.

  • Last week, McCarthy and Biden help their first face-to-face discussion on the debt ceiling since the California representative took the Speaker's gavel.
  • There remain divisions within the Republican party as to the scale of spending cuts required in order to gain support for raising the debt ceiling.
