The Chicago Committee for Heritage hosted a reception and panel discussion titled, What Washington Wants To Do With Your Taxes, featuring Heritage experts Alison Acosta Fraser and J.D. Foster.
Alison Acosta Fraser is Director of the Thomas A. Roe Institute for Economic Policy Studies at The Heritage Foundation. She oversees Heritage's research on a wide range of domestic economic issues, including federal spending, taxes, energy and environment, retirement savings, and regulation.
View Fraser's presentation:
One of the Roe Institute's priorities is the reform of the federal entitlement programs: Medicaid, Medicare, and Social Security. Under Fraser's leadership, Heritage research has helped to define and communicate the long-term fiscal threats from spending and taxes and to identify solutions for reform.
J.D. Foster is Norman B. Ture Senior Fellow in the Economics of Fiscal Policy at The Heritage Foundation. His primary focus is studying long-term changes in tax policy to ensure a strong economy. He also examines changes in Medicare, Medicaid, and Social Security so that they are both affordable and more effective.
