In Case You Missed It...

| By CBPP

This week at CBPP, we focused on the federal budget and taxes and housing. 

  • On housing, Will Fischer and Erik Gartland warned that a Trump Administration proposal to put time limits on rental assistance would place more than 3 million people — half of them children — at risk of eviction and homelessness.

The Center was active on social media this week. Here are some of our posts:

Sharon Parrott posted a thread on X and Bluesky critiquing the Trump Administration's rescission strategy and explaining why it damages Congress’s ability to reach bipartisan agreements.

Will Fischer posted a thread on X emphasizing why Congress should expand rental assistance instead of approving House Republicans’ proposed cuts to housing vouchers, which would increase homelessness and evictions.

Gbenga Ajilore posted a thread on X and Bluesky examining the importance of additional funding for the Census Bureau and how proposed cuts could affect the Bureau’s ability to maintain reliable data and budget projections.

 

A variety of news outlets featured CBPP’s work and experts this past week. Here are some of the highlights:
