U.S. Debt Per Household Up $80,000 Over Past Decade

  • Under President Obama’s budget policies, debt per household will reach $191,000 in 2022. His plan received zero votes in either the House and the Senate.
  • The last time a budget proposal was adopted in the Senate was 1,225 days ago.
  • For three consecutive years, the Senate’s Democratic majority has not brought a budget plan to the Senate floor for a vote or public consideration.
  • For two consecutive years, they have even cancelled the legally required meetings to work on a budget—refusing to author a fiscal plan that would have to address taxing and spending, including entitlements, in every area of the government over a period of no less than five years.
  • By contrast, the Republican-led House laid out a detailed, long-term plan to reform the tax code, address entitlements, and confront the nation’s staggering debt.
