Special coverage of stories on debt

Natural Resource Center BLM

Four days and counting. That’s how long Congress and the President have to figure out what to do about the nation’s debt ceiling. And this week in our series “Debt Line” we’re exploring how this debt crisis could impact Idaho.  If the nation doesn’t raise its borrowing limit, it will have to take money from several federal programs to avoid default. But as Boise State Public Radio’s Adam Cotterell reports, federal employees in Idaho aren’t letting that get to them.
