So excited to learn that my paper with @Agangopadhyaya on Medicaid and human capital was cited in the @WhiteHouseCEA 2022 Economic Report of the President! We find expanded Medicaid eligibility reduces the probability of children being below grade for age.

Representation is said to matter, but I didn't see myself in the world around me growing up. Whom did I see? With whom was I supposed to identify? What about my children? And what about in children's books? What do children see? How to measure it? (a thread 🧵👇🏾) 1/n

So happy with this outcome! And excited about having a paper I can refer folks to when there's not enough time to explain the issue.

Today the @WhiteHouseCEA released the 2023 Economic Report of the President, including the Annual Report of the Council of Economic Advisers. There's a lot of great content and interesting analysis, and I have a particular fondness for Chapter 4. 1/3 whitehouse.gov/wp-content/up…

👋🏽#EconTwitter #EconJobMarket ❓Why are the labor and education outcomes of youth with disabilities receiving Supplemental Security Income (#SSI) benefits so low? 📝In my #JMP, I show that financial constraints and strong work disincentives in the SSI program hold them back.
