#USNationalDebt As of June 2025, the U.S. national debt has surpassed $37 trillion for the first time in history 1 2. That's more than 122% of the country's GDP, and the cost of servicing this debt is nearing $1 trillion annually 1.

To put it in perspective, the U.S. is now spending more on interest payments than on national defense 3.

A few key points:

• $9.2 trillion of this debt is set to mature in 2025 alone, with most of it borrowed at lower interest rates 4.

• Rolling over that debt at today's higher yields (around 3.2%) could significantly increase borrowing costs 4.

• The Congressional Budget Office

projects the debt could reach 156% of

GDP by 2055 if current trends continue
