“It should not go unnoticed that various groups from across the political spectrum have been helping Congress to tackle budget reform. They include the Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget, the National Taxpayers Union, the Brookings Institution, the Convergence Center for Policy Resolution, and the Heritage Foundation — to name just a handful. The Legislative Branch Capacity Working Group, which I co-chair, has also helped to produce research and events on budgeting and appropriations.”
