BEYOND THE NUMBERS
In Case You Missed It . . .
This week at CBPP, we focused on health, state budgets and taxes, and the economy.
- On health, Allison Orris, Anna Bailey, and Jennifer Sullivan showed how states can use Medicaid to help address health-related social needs. We also updated our resource tracking states’ unwinding from Medicaid continuous coverage.
- On state budgets and taxes, Joanna LeFebvre and Sonali Master outlined how the expiration of federal K-12 emergency funds could pose challenges for states.
- On the economy, we updated our chart book tracking the recovery from the pandemic recession.
