This week on Off the Charts, we focused on federal taxes, state taxes, health reform, Social Security, housing, and the safety net.
This week we updated our reports on the decline in SNAP costs and the cost of making tax extenders permanent. We updated our backgrounders on unemployment insurance and state supermajority rules to raise revenues and our chart book on the legacy of the Great Recession.
