Total US public debt surpassed $40 trillion for the first time, and has now surged by a third in less than five years, as US lawmakers continue to shrug off calls to contend with historically wide fiscal deficits.

Public debt outstanding stood at $40.05 trillion as of the close of business Tuesday, a Treasury Department release on Wednesday showed.

The news came hours after Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent made a fresh attempt to rein in long-term borrowing costs from multi-year highs — a notable component of the growth in debt. The Treasury said it’s ramping up a buyback program for longer-dated securities, in an announcement that sent yields lower.
