i thought the debt limit had been temporarily (forever) suspended during obomba years. they must've put it back in while i was sleeping


edit: it was suspended just for obama. the repugs/dims agreed to unlimited spending for 2 years (this article from 2015)

President Barack Obama signed the budget agreement and debt limit increase into law Monday, preventing any chance of a default on the government’s debt and lessening the chances of a government shutdown later in the year.

Obama said at the signing that Republicans and Democrats came together to "set up a responsible, long-term budget process," that will create jobs and assist the economy.

"And by locking in two years of funding, it should finally free us from the cycle of shutdown threats and last-minute fixes. It allows us to, therefore, plan for the future," he said.
