The U.S. national debt has surpassed $40 trillion, following decades of growth and increases associated with the federal response to the COVID-19 pandemic and rising interest payments.
Some elected officials are now turning their attention to the debt. In this special episode of “Baker Briefing,” guest host John W. Diamond, director of the Center for Tax and Budget Policy, spoke with Rep. Jodey Arrington, a Republican who represents Texas’ 19th Congressional District. Arrington served as chairman of the House Budget Committee, where he was instrumental in passing President Donald Trump’s One Big Beautiful Bill Act.
As he prepares to retire from Congress, Arrington discusses his accomplishments, the challenges to bipartisanship, and the need to rein in entitlement spending and identify new sources of revenue to address the national debt.
