Resources for Policymakers
SIEPR experts produce monthly policy briefs and are available to provide insights on a vast array of economic policy topics organized in our Focal Areas. Our faculty regularly testify on Capitol Hill and in state legislatures, and advise government officials.
Policy Briefs
- Ho, D. ., O’Connell, A., & Cui, I. (2023). Talent exchanges for state governments. Policy Brief.
- Buckberg, E. (2023). Clean vehicle tax credit: The new industrial policy and its impact. Policy Brief.
- Einav, L., Klopack, B., & Mahoney, N. (2023). Selling Subscriptions. Working Paper.
Focal Areas
Our faculty affiliates delve deeply into a dozen focal areas that go to the heart of the most pressing economic policy issues. But economic research doesn’t always fit into just one category. That’s why you’ll find plenty of overlap in our scholars’ interests that reflects novel collaborations and innovative research agendas.
