NEW: #PWBM analysis of the entire Biden policy platform! In the first ten years, we estimate $5.35T in new spending and $3.375T in new tax revenue. But by 2050, the full platform decreases debt by 6.1% and boosts output by 0.8% See the full analysis: whr.tn/biden_analysis

#PWBM predicts both the tax and spending provisions of the American Jobs Plan would increase government debt by 1.7% by 2031 but decrease debt by 6.4% by 2050. GDP would also be decreased by 0.8% in 2050. Full brief: whr.tn/3wynctN
