Budget

CBO's regular budget publications include semiannual reports on the budget and economic outlook, annual reports analyzing the President’s budget and discussing the long-term budget picture, and a biannual set of options for reducing budget deficits.

Numerous analytic studies provide more in-depth analysis of specific budgetary issues.
