Our estimates from January this year indicate that a full repeal of all the energy-related tax provisions in the IRA would raise $852 billion from 2026–2035. American Action Forum ?? Ultimately, Republican lawmakers have to decide whether and how they want to revise the clean energy tax provisions in the 2022 Inflation Reduction Act through a reconciliation bill. ?? Besides the amount of revenue raised through repealing a tax provision, lawmakers should also consider the design of a clean energy tax provision in terms of its simplicity, efficiency, and fiscal sustainability. Here's a link to my analysis: https://lnkd.in/eeAVPvqv
Our new revenue estimates indicate repeal of the IRA credits would raise $851 billion over a decade. Other reform options keeping the most effective parts would raise more than $200 billion. These are big and important reforms that would help offset the budgetary cost of extending TCJA and other pro-growth tax cuts. https://lnkd.in/eXARP2eg

In a post depicting empty grocery store egg shelves on X last month, Federal Trade Commission (FTC) Commissioner Alvaro Bedoya suggested producers could be exercising market power to reap ill-gotten profits by keeping prices elevated. In a new insight, Director of Competition Policy Frederick Ashton explains why the laws of supply and demand offer a more plausible and straightforward explanation for the increased prices. He concludes: The outbreak of avian flu in late 2021 sent the prices of?eggs?soaring over 80 percent and 53 percent in just the last 12 months.? FTC Commissioner Bedoya suggested that sky-high egg prices could be the result of market power and called upon the FTC to investigate. It is more likely that the reduced supply – largely driven by the length of time it takes to replenish the laying flock – and the inelasticity of the supply and demand curve were the culprits behind higher prices, rather than market power.?
