As the Fed grapples with continued elevated inflation and a slowing labor market, macroeconomic experts like Lisa Cook are needed more than ever to help translate the economic evidence into real outcomes for workers and families, including shared prosperity.
In 2022, we supported her appointment to the Federal Reserve, and she has since brought a much-needed perspective on how Fed policy can better harness the full potential of the workforce to spur economic growth and maintain the United States' position as the world's leader in innovation.
Lisa Cook was integral in establishing the Washington Center for Equitable Growth, serving in multiple advisory roles that have strengthened our grant program and the organization. www.cbsnews.com/news/trump-l...

New CBO analysis estimates that income will decrease for the poorest Americans by $1,200/year due to the #OBBBA's tax and benefit changes, but increase for middle-income households from $800-$1,200, as well as by $13,000+ for the wealthiest Americans. Read more ➡️ www.reuters.com/legal/litiga...
Analysis from Chris Bangert-Drowns shows impacts President Trump's tariffs have across industries. "Manufacturing industries will face increased input costs imposed by the very tariff regime intended to boost their competitiveness with imported final goods." 🔗: equitablegrowth.org/tariffs-impa...
Today's Consumer Price Index report shows that a key measure of underlying inflation rose in July, with "prices increasing at the fastest annual pace in five months, a sign that businesses are passing along tariff-related costs to customers." More from @nytimes.com: www.nytimes.com/live/2025/08...

4/ For more on the tariff analysis, check out the exclusive report from Josh Boak and Paul Wiseman @apnews.com 👇 apnews.com/article/trum...
3/ Even before the new tariffs announced last night, Chris Bangert-Drowns estimated more than 1 in 10 U.S. workers (23 million) work in an industry highly exposed to tariffs. Employment has steadily dropped in those sectors since March. Read more here ⬇️ equitablegrowth.org/tariffs-impa...
2/ Some have pointed to weakness in secondary indicators as a sign that the U.S. labor market needs policy support. Consistent with this idea, employment in about half of industries is declining, including within manufacturing, which is especially exposed to tariffs.
JULY's #JobsReport just dropped 📈📉 Here are key things to know. A 🧵: First, Despite the weak payroll data and downward revisions to previous months, today's data show a stable and still fairly strong U.S. labor market. But various indicators have clearly cooled since 2023.

Research from #EGgrantee Jisung Park was cited in Sen. Padilla's release, highlighting how temperature and workplace safety impact labor market inequality. Findings show hotter temperatures increase workplace injuries significantly, causing ~20,000 injuries/year. equitablegrowth.org/working-pape...
Yesterday, @padilla.senate.gov joined union workers to unveil legislation shielding workers from dangerous heat exposure. The bill mandates OSHA to create a federal standard, and employers would be required to train employees on heat illness risks and response. www.padilla.senate.gov/newsroom/pre...
New from me @equitablegrowth.bsky.social – our U.S. Inequality Tracker, released last week, showed that income inequality has been high but stable in the 21st century. But it doesn't include capital gains. With data from Jake Robbins, I look at how this would impact the trend in inequality.
Understanding how capital gains are accounted for can significantly change our view of income distribution. New findings suggest that when capital gains are included, U.S. income inequality appears more pronounced, especially at higher income levels. Read more:

ICYMI, @equitablegrowth.bsky.social launched a new interactive visualization of U.S. economic inequality this week. Here's a little thread of some graphs from it (which you can also generate yourself!)
The tool's data can be sorted by income decile and measured across time. Results show evolution of personal income, composition of income, personal income growth, and share of personal income. See the methodology and interact with data for yourself: inequalitytracker.equitablegrowth.org/dashboard/
The U.S. Inequality Tracker is here! This tool examines the distribution of income and wealth over time in the U.S., tracking how economic growth and well-being varies across households and changes over time. To see how the Tracker works, check out the video demo: www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cz5M...
Republicans' hugely unpopular bill is law; will they pay the electoral price for it they should? My research with @patrick-sullivan.bsky.social for @equitablegrowth.bsky.social has good news: voters informed about the bill's effects overwhelmingly oppose it. equitablegrowth.org/americans-in...
New interactive data visualization: Inequality is about to surge, so I helped @equitablegrowth.bsky.social set up the U.S. Inequality Tracker, a new data dashboard that tracks wealth and income inequality in the 21st century. This thread is going to introduce the tracker.
Just published my annual review of inequality at @equitablegrowth.bsky.social. Inequality has been frozen at high levels since 2000. That's ok-ish news, but the foundations of this freeze are rotten, and Trump's megabill takes an axe to them. Rising inequality is back. Much more in this thread.
2/ "The Republican’s budget bill is enormous, largely unpaid for, and overwhelmingly regressive, transferring income from less affluent Americans to the most privileged." To learn more about the bill's regressivity, see Hacker and Sullivan's accompanying report: equitablegrowth.org/congressiona...
The #ReconciliationBill may be "most regressive U.S. tax and budget law in at least the past four decades." How are Americans’ views of the bill affected by info about its regressive effects? @jacobhacker.bsky.social and @patrick-sullivan.bsky.social explore: equitablegrowth.org/working-pape...

Welcome to #NBER Summer Institute Week 1! We have a jam-packed week ahead of us, featuring sessions on the development of the American economy, impulse and propagation mechanisms, monetary economics, and more! Here's a 🧵of where you can find our #EGgrantee(s) and other network members this week.
In @marketwatch.com @robertmanduca.bsky.social helps break down what's at stake for local communities as a result of Medicaid cuts in the One Big Beautiful Bill—on average these safety-net programs account for 40 percent of money flowing into local communities. www.marketwatch.com/story/how-th...
7/ Maybe that’s part of the reason why the bill is so unpopular? The more people know about it, the more they hate it, per EG collaborators @jacobhacker.bsky.social & @patrick-sullivan.bsky.social. equitablegrowth.org/working-pape... - END 🧵-
6/ To help understand jobs at risk, here’s a look at current employment in major parts of the health care industry – 18M employees or approx 11 percent of all U.S. workers.
5/Medicaid cuts don’t just threaten individual coverage; they threaten jobs and local economies. As #EGgrantee @robertmanduca.bsky.social writes, Medicaid fuels a bigger part of the local economy than the biggest industry in many U.S. states. equitablegrowth.org/medicaid-and...
4/ Health care is the largest U.S. industry by employment with strong job and wage growth – one of the U.S.’s “middle-class jobs engines” per EG’s @kevinrinz.bsky.social in today's NYT. www.nytimes.com/interactive/...
3/ But there are other risks to the U.S. job market and the One Big Beautiful Bill is…a big one. Let’s zoom in on health care as an example...
2/ There are signs of cracks in current economic conditions, though. Employment is falling in industries with the highest exposure to the administration's tariffs.
1/ U.S. labor market is proving resilient despite recent best efforts to weaken it through uncertainty, cuts to federal spending, and rising costs.
JUNE’s #JobsReport just dropped 📈📉 Here are key things to know. A 🧵:
Even before Senate made them worse, OBBBA's Medicaid & SNAP cuts projected to be economic equivalent of losing: 97% of food manufacturing in New Jersey's 7th district (Kean) 85% of farming in NE-2 (Bacon) 69% of hospitality (largest private industry in district!) in CO-3 (Hurd) ...

Local economies across the U.S. may face significant economic fallout from the #ReconciliationBill. This impact is expected to be especially severe in areas where programs like Medicaid and other federal transfers form a larger portion of the local economic base. equitablegrowth.org/medicaid-and...
I don’t typically post much, but I’m excited to share a guest essay co-authored with @jacobhacker.bsky.social which was published today in the @nytimes.com, as well as two reports we just published at the @equitablegrowth.bsky.social on Republican’s so-called “One Big Beautiful Bill Act.”
