State Fiscal and Low-Income Initiatives Project

About this grant

This increase will support a pilot expansion of the State Fiscal and Low-Income Initiatives Project. The overall goal of this project is to conduct strategic analyses of federal and state budget priorities and fiscal policies and programs that impact low-income populations. Additional Foundation support will enable the grantee to layer nuanced economic analysis on top of its core budget and tax policy capacity, deepening its role in the historic budget and fiscal debates that are before the nation at both the federal and state levels. Located in Washington, D.C., the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities is one of the premier policy research institutions in the United States.
