Before defense. Before veterans.

We spend more on interest on the national debt than on national defense, Medicaid, children’s programs or veterans’ benefits.

By 2056, it's $18 billion.

Every day, we spend $2.8 billion just on interest on the national debt. By 2056, we’ll spend more than $18 billion every day on interest.

Nobody voted for it.

Interest on the national debt is the fastest growing “program” in the federal budget.

Not one road. Not one school.

Over the next 30 years, we’ll spend $100 trillion just on interest on the national debt.

Updating $40 Trillion should be a wake up call
