      "summary": "On February 4, 2014, in anticipation of no increase in the statutory debt limit, the U.S. Treasury announced in a press release that it would suspend \u201csales of State and Local Government Series (SLGS) nonmarketable Treasury securities until further notice\u201d on February 7, 2014. The debt limit was extended on February 15, 2014, and the Treasury resumed sales of SLGS on February 18, 2014. As of September 30, 2014, SLGS represented 0.6% ($105.7 billion) of total debt outstanding. Suspending SLGS does not change the debt limit but rather just delays the date when it is reached. Some have expressed concern that a suspension may have a negative impact on state and local government finances. This report explains SLGS and how suspension may impact state and local government bond issuers.",
