This is a good explainer of how the Van Hollen plan works. And the moving visual in post 3 below is mesmerizing and oddly calming. It's like watching the tax code inhale and exhale.

New @The_Budget_Lab report on the Van Hollen tax plan, below. Lots of analysis out there is based on last week's WaPo article, which didn't offer many details. The actual proposal is for an alternative _maximum_ tax, not a new deduction. These are different policies! [1/5]

Yale Budget Lab Exec. Dir. @marthagimbel on the shrinking appeal of U.S. debt: "We are currently the boyfriend at the beginning of the Hallmark movie in the big city, where the girlfriend is still going out with him even though she knows that it's wrong."

New analysis from @The_Budget_Lab: Deficit spending isn't free---it shows up in your mortgage rate. We estimate that fiscal policy since 2015 has raised borrowing costs by ~$2,500/year for a family buying a median-priced home, or $76,000 over the life of a 30 year mortgage.

Last month we got revisions for job growth in previous months, which showed that (as expected) job growth was weaker in 2025 than had previously been recorded. So, what is actually happening with the labor market? 1/

Listen to NPR's All Things Considered @scottdetrow's interview with @The_Budget_Lab's @marthagimbel: "You need to remember that technological related labor market disruption is not instantaneous. It happens in the context of IT policies, company concerns about liability and broader economic growth trends. I think it's really important to keep all of those things in mind when talking about what jobs are going away, what jobs are becoming more popular, and how fast this may happen." npr.org/2026/02/23/nx-…

New estimates from @The_Budget_Lab including the possibility of 15% section 122 tariffs (which at the moment I believe only exist in tweet form). Everyone tip @riccoja so he doesn’t have to pay taxes on it. Only a slight movement up in overall ETR which reflects the exemptions.

After the Supreme Court struck down President Trump's global tariffs, he pledged to keep most of them in place through other means. For more on what the ruling and the president's response mean for the economy, @IAmAmnaNawaz speaks to @NatashaRSarin.
