Over the past three months, CBO has provided a variety of budget and economic analyses, fulfilling the agency’s core mission of supporting the Congress during each stage of the legislative process. The agency has published 149 cost estimates for legislation that was reported by a committee or that was the subject of a motion to be placed on the consensus calendar. CBO was also focused on providing technical assistance to the Congress as legislative proposals affecting infrastructure, the gap between tax obligations and tax collections, and other areas of the budget were developed. In addition, since its last quarterly report on work in progress, CBO has released 29 reports, working papers, testimonies, and interactive tools; they satisfied statutory requirements, fulfilled Congressional requests, or provided economic and budgetary analysis or technical information.
