美两党已达成协议 暂时逃过违债危机
关键字:美国债务违约
参院民主党领袖瑞德(Harry Reid)与共和党领袖Mitch McConnell 16日共同宣布,两党已达成协议,举债额度将延展至明年2月。原本试图阻拦奥巴马建改法案的共和党议员在声明宣布后已承认失败,并承诺不会干预议会投票。
MarketWatch.com报导,众议院议长贝纳(John Boehner)当日接受电台访问时表示,共和党已经尽力,但并未获胜,他将把参议院的决议付诸表决,并预期联邦政府17日就可以重新开张。
依照参议院共识,应急运算案将可维持联邦政府运作至1月15日,而举债上限调高之后,将可满足联邦政府至明年二月七日前的融资需求。至于共和党原先极力争取的延后实施建改与课征医疗设备税等,最后都未获在朝的民主党妥协,仅在健保补助条件薪资查核上做了些许修改。参众两院稍晚就会进行投票,白宫方面已表示支持。
协议主要包括以下内容:
债务上限:该法案允许美国财政部在2014年2月7日前继续正常借款,同时允许财政部在该日期过后保留采取紧急行动的灵活性,以避免违约。
政府关门:该协议将为政府在明年1月15日前提供资金。政府职员将回到工作岗位,将取回先前拖欠的薪水。
预算:协议指示众议院和参议院磋商人员试图在12月中期前达成一项预算协议。
奥巴马医改:未对2010年的奥巴马医改法案(Obamacare做出重大改变。协议并不包括削减国会及政府官员的健康保险福利。这一协议包括对根据医疗保健法寻求补助金人士的一些核查程序,但共和党人的其它修改要求作出让步,其中包括废除医疗设备税。
自动减支:参议院协议条款并不包括允许政府机构拥有更大的灵活性,以减轻一系列联邦支出削减措施,即所谓自动减支(Sequester)的负面影响。国会助理表示,当权宜性支出法 案(stopgap spending measure)在明年1月中旬到期之后,新一轮支出削减措施将生效,这将给磋商人员有更大动力去达成协议。
