On Tuesday, the House of Representatives will either approve or deny legislation to raise the national debt ceiling.

Maryland’s Sixth District Representative David Trone said, “This is a normal, normal situation where over time, you accumulate more debt and as the country gets bigger, it’s like a business — as the business gets bigger, they accumulate more debt because they have more things they’re supporting.”

The Senate already approved legislation to lift the federal limit on new borrowing last Thursday.

“If we don’t raise the debt ceiling, we will default probably around the 18th of October,” explained Trone. “It will get done because it has to get done — it has gotten done probably 70 times in the last, you know, couple decades.”
