Options for Reducing the Deficit: 2019 to 2028
Abstract
The estimates for the various options shown in this report were completed in November 2018. They may differ from any previous or subsequent cost estimates for legislative proposals that resemble the options presented here. Unless this report indicates otherwise, all years referred to regarding budgetary outlays and revenues are federal fiscal years, which run from October 1 to September 30 and are designated by the calendar year in which they end. The numbers in the text and tables are in nominal (current-year) dollars. Those numbers may not add up to totals because of rounding. In the tables, for changes in outlays, revenues, and the deficit, negative numbers indicate decreases, and positive numbers indicate increases. Thus, negative numbers for spending and positive numbers for revenues reduce the deficit, and positive nu bers for spending and negative numbers for revenues increase it.
