Katharine Abraham named to CBO panel of economic advisors
Congressional Budget Office panel provided specialized expertise
Distinguished University Professor and MPRC Faculty Associate Katharine Abraham was recently appointed to the Panel of Economic Advisors of the Congressional Budget Office (CBO).
The Congressional Budget Office relies on many outside experts to learn about important analytical issues in the advisers’ areas of expertise and to obtain feedback about the agency’s economic forecast. "In addition, from time to time during the year, CBO calls on members of the panel for advice about how to address analytical questions that arise when preparing studies and cost estimates," the agency noted.
