The Congressional Budget Office (CBO), established over fifty years ago, has become pivotal in Congress, providing objective analysis to support fiscal policy decisions. Amidst the current debate over President Trump's significant spending bill, the CBO has projected a $2.4 trillion increase in federal deficits over a decade. This projection has sparked contention, with criticism from Republican leaders and the White House who argue that anticipated economic growth will counteract some of the deficit costs. The CBO remains a trusted nonpartisan entity designed to offer lawmakers a reliable resource for analyzing budgetary impacts without political bias.
