Most Democrats support deficit reduction as part of debt ceiling fight: Poll

Overall, more than six in 10 Americans want some kind of deficit reduction measures to be paired with a debt limit increase

Only a third of voting Democrats, 34%, support the stance taken by Biden and Democrat leaders that the debt limit should be increased "without conditions." Elizabeth Elkind is a politics reporter for Fox News Digital. 

The two parties are facing a deadline for a debt ceiling deal of somewhere around June 1, which is when the Treasury Department estimates that the government will no longer be able to pay for current spending obligations without more borrowing. Biden and his allies in Congress have said that Congress should raise the debt ceiling immediately, while Republicans have said they can only support this increase if it is paired with spending reductions.
