SUMMARY:Grappling with the Nation’s Pressing Fiscal Challenges
DESCRIPTION:Featuring Spring 2024 visiting Fellows Rachel Snyderman and Emily Wielk \nThe U.S. fiscal house stands on shaky ground. Marked by a federal debt that has eclipsed $34 trillion\, growing annual deficits\, persistent inflation\, and rising interest costs\, Americans are increasingly frustrated by both the risks they present as well as the partisan gridlock in Washington over how to address them. America’s fiscal challenge is even more acute today given the significant economic issues that the 119th Congress and next administration will immediately face including the debt limit\, tax reform\, and Social Security and Medicare solvency\, to name a few. \nPlease join us at the Dole Institute as our two Visiting Fellows break down what’s at stake and why fiscal policy will remain front and center in the coming years. What will the potential impact be on our families and communities\, nation\, and global competitiveness? \n  \n \nThis program is presented in partnership with the Bipartisan Policy Center.  \n  \n \nRachel Snyderman\, Director of Economic Policy\, Bipartisan Policy Center\nRachel Snyderman serves as the Director of Economic Policy at the Bipartisan Policy Center.
