This week at CBPP, we focused on state budgets and taxes, Social Security, health, and the economy.
- On state budgets and taxes, we updated our state tax cuts tracker with an entry on why the Nebraska governor’s property tax cut plan would lead to more inequality and higher taxes for low-income Nebraskans.
- On Social Security, Paul N. Van de Water highlighted key takeaways for the program’s future from the 2024 trustees’ report. We also updated our backgrounder on Social Security trust funds.
- On health, we updated our resource tracking states’ unwinding from Medicaid continuous coverage.
- On the economy, we updated our backgrounder on how many weeks of unemployment insurance are available per state.
