"If the U.S. were to default on its debt, it would undermine the economy dramatically and potentially throw the markets into disarray.  Our debt is the currency of the world.  For us to default would call into question our world leadership and inevitably lead to American taxpayers having to pay more to finance our debt.  It would limit our capacity to grow and negatively impact job creation, unnecessarily. We urge the President and Congress to come together and negotiate a workable solution to avoid these consequences."
