Hybrid Session: The Federal Debt Crisis & Its Impact on Maryland Small Businesses

Join us for a timely and eye-opening conversation with the nationally respected Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget (CRFB) as we explore the growing federal debt—and what it could mean for Maryland’s small business community.

This hybrid event will provide a high-level overview of the current national fiscal outlook, followed by an engaging Q&A session with CRFB experts. From rising interest rates and inflation to changing tax policy and shrinking federal support programs, the consequences of national debt aren't just numbers—they're real challenges facing local businesses right now.

What You’ll Learn:

• How the federal debt grew to over $36 trillion, and what’s driving its continued rise
