Semi-annual increases in the debt cap are pretty standard (that's how it got up to the $9.8 trillion in the first place) so I don't think this was a particularly significant part of it.

If anything it would probably have been considered a hindrance for not increasing it enough to account for possible bailout measures the administration might be considering.
