A new study would show how federal job cuts affect local services and budgets.
This bill would require the Comptroller General to study how federal job reductions impact state and local governments. The study would look at costs for services like unemployment and Medicaid, and how tax revenues change. A public report would go to Congress within 18 months, offering ideas for future support.
Today, there is no full federal study that assesses how federal job cuts impact the budgets, tax money, and spending of state and local governments. If this bill becomes law, the Comptroller General would conduct such a study. They would then provide a public report to Congress within 18 months, offering insights and policy options.
