Over the past week CBO has released a number of products related to the stimulus efforts in Congress. On Wednesday, CBO released aletteron the macroeconomic impacts of H.R. 1that included year-by-year analysis of the economic effects of the stimulus legislation. (This analysis was based on an average of the effects of two versions of H.R. 1-- as passed by the House and as passed by the Senate. The economic effects of those two bills were projected to be broadly similar).Today, CBO released a cost estimate ofthe conference agreement for H.R. 1, as posted on the Web site of the House Committee on Rules.
CBO estimates that enacting the conference agreement for H.R. 1 would increase federal budget deficits by $185 billion over the remaining months of fiscal year 2009, by $399 billion in 2010, by $134 billion in 2011, and by $787 billion over the 2009-2019 period (combining both spending and revenue effects). The table belowsummarizes the estimated budgetary impacts of the conference agreement legislation.
