Very proud of the work our EG fellows did with Sen. @RonWyden's office to ensure evidence-backed research informs policymaking!
What evidence supports the Stability and Opportunity for Workers Act?
In a new column, Equitable Growth Fellow Megan Rivera & Visiting Fellow @awh, who were consulted on the legislation, examine the research behind the bill's proposals to modernize unemployment insurance and better support workers during periods of economic disruption.

Responding to economic shifts and a changing labor market requires investing in a stronger, more modern social safety net.
That's why we're encouraged to see Sen. @RonWyden's Stability and Opportunity for Workers Act include provisions based on evidence advanced by Equitable Growth to address longstanding weaknesses in the nation's unemployment insurance system.

Check out our first post from Senior Policy Fellow @michaelslinden on the federal deficit debate. 📈
The question is not really “Do we have a spending problem or a revenue problem.” The real question lurking underneath the deficit debate is much more consequential: “How do we judge whether the federal budget is aimed at the right things?”

This week’s #WednesdayDataDrop highlights how tariff exposure varies sharply by state.
Midwest and Southern states have higher employment exposure scores, meaning a larger share of workers are in industries affected by recent tariff policies.
