Automatic Stabilizers in the Federal Budget: 2023 to 2033

Author

Listed:
  • Congressional Budget Office

Abstract

Federal revenues and outlays regularly respond to cyclical movements in the economy in ways that tend to offset those movements; the budget mechanisms that drive that process are known as automatic stabilizers. Those mechanisms, which help stabilize the economy automatically, also contribute to short-run fluctuations in the deficit, without any legislated changes in tax or spending policies.
