| | | | | Increased federal spending in response to COVID-19, as well as rising interest rates, have added to our nation's financial woes. At $2.8 trillion, the FY 2021 budget deficit was the second largest in history-just short of the FY 2020 deficit of $3.1 trillion. These historically large deficits were due primarily to the economic disruptions caused by COVID-19-which decreased revenues in FY 2020-and the additional spending by the federal government in response to help the nation recover from the pandemic. | |
