Original Note:
Ahead of the downgrade, Fitch informed the US Treasury Department that the events of January 6th, 2021, and debt ceiling brinksmanship in 2023 were the motivating factors in their decision. Fitch did not cite "Bidenomics," nor Biden's economic policies. https://www.reuters.com/markets/us/fitch-decision-cut-us-credit-rating-based-deteriorating-governance-polarization-2023-08-02/
