National Taxpayers Union

“What all of this drills down to is that when the program is not ‘free,’ people don't want it,” Brittany Madni, a senior fellow for fiscal policy at National Taxpayers Union, told The Center Square. “The whole thing is revealed to be expensive for the taxpayer and not a good deal for the patient. So that's why we're seeing a massive drop off.” thecentersquare.com/texas/article_…

Read analysis from @unleashprosperity about why the merger should move forward. BTW, the justice department has already approved the merger. There are no legitimate concerns about harm to consumers. Democratic AGs need to get out of the way.  unleashprosperitynow.com/wp-content/upl…

The idea that the merger will lead to fewer entertainment options is ridiculous. Streaming. Youtube. Gaming. Traditional Studios. Independent Producers. Consumers are drowning in options. AG @robbonta should drop the suit. Don't become the next Elizabeth Warren, who prevented the merger of JetBlue and Spirit, only to watch as thousands lost jobs and consumers lost a budget airline.

Companies should not be punished simply for getting bigger. But California and a dozen other Democratic attorneys general are suing to stop Paramount from merging with Warner Bros. This is Spirit Airlines all over again. ntu.org/publications/d…

Helping hospitals pay for drugs that vulnerable patients depend on is a perfectly valid cause. The problem is that lawmakers failed to clearly define who qualifies as a 340B patient and then looked the other way as billions of dollars flowed through an opaque system devoid of accountability. washingtonexaminer.com/restoring-amer…

One year after @POTUS signed @TaxCuts, we are starting see the effects of the bill. The WFTC did a lot more than simply lower taxes for most Americans. It added provisions in several government benefit programs to encourage work, which has already helped boost labor force participation. It included measures to combat waste, fraud, and abuse in areas as wide ranging as federal student loans and food stamps. And it included important improvements in child care, paid leave, and adoption tax credits to help strengthen families, which will help grow our economy in the long run.ntu.org/publications/d…

Rather than banning energy-intensive technologies, policymakers should be exploring reforms that strengthen the benefits of the public grid while creating a parallel pathway for new electricity consumers who need to move at entrepreneurial speed. ntu.org/publications/d…

This raises a deeper question that America can no longer afford to avoid. If the old way of providing electricity cannot keep pace with today's energy needs, is it time to try something new?
