WASHINGTON: The U.S. Treasury will unveil a plan as soon as Friday evening on how the government will function and pay its bills if it looks like Congress will not raise the debt ceiling in a timely manner, an administration official said on Thursday.
Republican and Democratic lawmakers are scrambling to broker a deal to raise the country's $14.3 trillion debt cap before Tuesday, when the U.S. Treasury will no longer be able to borrow funds to meet all of its obligations.
