The US is performing much better than many other wealthy nations when comparing economic growth and inflation rates. The US had the highest GDP growth since the start of the pandemic among the G7 countries, an informal group of industrialized democracies. Even when taking out food and energy prices, which were especially elevated in Europe due to the invasion of Ukraine, the US came in below the other G7 countries. Despite this data, "inflation going forward remains considerably uncertain across all G7 nations, including the US," the CEA wrote. But despite the US's outperformance on GDP and inflation, many Americans are still worried about the nation's economy.

According to the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, a short-term extension of the debt ceiling has been enacted six times since 1993 to buy time for a broader package to take shape. For now, the White House remains committed publicly to its position pushing for a long-term solution and remains open to a two-track process to negotiate spending separately from the debt ceiling. "This is not our plan," a White House spokesperson said of a short-term extension. Moderate Democrats in Congress have signaled a willingness to vote for a short-term extension — making it an option that could pass through a deeply divided legislative branch. "I think if the White House understands how important it is for us to do things like claw back unobligated Covid funds, not spend $500 billion on an unconstitutional student loan forgiveness, start to unlock American energy," Johnson tells NBC News, "I think they're going to find Republicans receptive if the White House understands our values."
