The U.S. government reported a $27 billion surplus in June, driven by a 13% increase in receipts and a remarkable 301% rise in tariff collections, totaling 27 billion dollars for the month. Tariff revenues have reached 113 billion dollars this fiscal year, up 86% from last year. Despite the surplus, the year-to-date deficit stands at 1.34 trillion dollars, with net interest on the national debt hitting 84 billion dollars in June. Recent spending plans threaten to increase the debt further.
