The US Treasury Department announced on the 12th that the fiscal balance in August was a deficit of $380 billion. In the same month of the previous year, there was a surplus of $890 billion.
The rejection of the Biden administration's appeal for the revival of the student loan relief plan by the US Supreme Court in August is the background.
According to economists' financial estimates compiled by Reuters, the deficit was $317.3 billion.
