Earlier today, I spoke at a meeting of trade association economists at the U.S. Chamber of Commerce about CBO’s upcoming work and the fiscal outlook, including the budgetary impact of higher interest rates and inflation.
CBO recently discussed the budgetary cost of higher interest rates and inflation as well as broader economic conditions in responses to inquiries from Members of Congress.
Phillip L. Swagel is CBO’s Director.
