Join us for the Policy Simulation Library (PSL) DC meeting hosted by AEI’s Open Source Policy Center to learn how computational simulation models are used to inform public policy decision-making. The meeting will begin with updates from PSL contributors and users about their open-source projects.

Ernie Tedeschi, policy economist and head of fiscal analysis at Evercore ISI, will also discuss the estimation of poverty rates in his research on the earned basic income tax credit. His novel approach to estimating poverty rates uses the open-source Tax-Calculator model and the Annual Social and Economic Supplement to the Current Population Survey.

Everyone is welcome to the PSL DC meeting regardless of technical knowledge or experience, although please expect modeling code and results to be presented.
