Temporary One-Week Extension of Public Debt Limit

This bill temporarily extends the U.S. government's debt limit for one week, until June 12, 2023. This aims to prevent issues with paying current obligations. It means the government can continue to fund its operations, such as benefit payments or salaries, for this short period.
Key points
The U.S. government's debt limit is extended only until June 12, 2023.
The government can only incur new debt to cover existing commitments that must be paid before June 11, 2023.
The government is prohibited from accumulating extra cash reserves during this period to avoid excessive borrowing before the deadline.
