Estados Unidos Saldo Orçamental

The US government recorded a $173.3 billion budget deficit in November 2025, compared with a $366.8 billion deficit in the same month a year earlier. Receipts rose 11.4% year-on-year to $336.0 billion, driven by individual income taxes ($146.96 billion), social insurance and retirement receipts ($134.29 billion), and customs duties ($30.76 billion). The increase reflected seasonal and collection-timing effects that lifted tax and customs receipts in the month. Meanwhile, outlays fell 23.8% year-on-year to $509.3 billion, with Social Security ($133.97 billion), Health/Medicare ($25.10 billion) and national defense ($65.48 billion) the largest spending categories; several payments (including Medicare and veterans’ benefits) affected the timing of outlays.
