A resolution recognizing the national debt as a threat to national security.

SRES 600 is a symbolic Senate resolution (not a law) that makes a formal statement recognizing the U.S. national debt as a threat to national security. It cites specific debt statistics (over $34 trillion as of January 2024), notes that interest payments on the debt may exceed defense spending in 2024, and references warnings from past defense and intelligence officials. The resolution does not create new policies or change existing law; it solely expresses the Senate's position on the debt's security implications. It calls for restoring regular budget process procedures and preventing a fiscal crisis, but has no binding effect on government spending or policy.
