On the federal budget, we analyzed President Biden’s 2023 budget proposal. On federal taxes, Janne Huang noted that many people will qualify for larger tax refunds this year due to temporary tax credit expansions. On state taxes, Iris Hinh highlighted our top state tax charts for the upcoming Tax Day. On health, Gideon Lukens explained that uncompensated care costs fell in states that recently expanded Medicaid. We also updated our fact sheet on coverage for COVID-19 testing, vaccinations, and treatment. On family income support, we updated our state fact sheets on the share of families in poverty receiving cash assistance through the Temporary Assistance for Needy Families program. On the economy, we updated our backgrounder on how many weeks of unemployment compensation are currently available.
