The U.S. federal government reported a deficit of $1.78 trillion for fiscal year 2025, slightly lower than projected. The shortfall represents a decrease of $41 billion, or 2.2%, compared to the previous year’s figures. This reduction is primarily attributed to increased tariffs and substantial debt payments. These actions contributed to a smaller fiscal gap, indicating a continued effort to manage national debt levels. Official figures released indicate a significant decrease in overall spending, though continued monitoring of economic conditions is necessary.
