“Waiting until the last minute to suspend or increase the debt limit can cause serious harm to business and consumer confidence, raise short-term borrowing cost for tax-payers, and negatively impact the credit rating of the United States,” Yellen said.

House Speaker Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif., said significant obstacles remain in ongoing negotiations despite Biden’s more optimistic outlook.
