When David Autor co-wrote a paper on how computerization affects job skill demands more than 20 years ago, a journal took 18 months to consider it — only to reject it after review. He went on to submit it to The Quarterly Journal of Economics , which eventually published the work 1 in November 2003.

Analysis shows union workers maintained advantages even through the COVID-19 crisis
WASHINGTON, DC – A new research paper shows that disabled workers represented by a union earn higher wages, and are more likely to have health insurance and retirement benefits than those who are not members of a union.
The analysis – published by the Center for Economic and Policy Research (CEPR) – found that between 2016 and 2023, the regression-adjusted mean hourly wage for a disabled worker represented by a union was $31.99 – substantially higher than that for a non-union worker with a disability ($27.18). This wage premium persisted across a range of different categories of disability, and across racial and ethnic groups. Among those of prime working age (ages 25 to 54), the regression-adjusted mean hourly wage for a disabled worker was nearly 18 percent higher for workers with union representation.
In addition to the wage benefits, the CEPR analysis finds that even after controlling for other factors, disabled union workers enjoy greater access to employer-sponsored health insurance (69.7 percent vs. 49.3 percent) and retirement benefits (46.5 percent vs. 30.1 percent).
“It is clear that workers with disabilities gain substantial economic advantages when they belong to a union,” said Hayley Brown, Research Associate at the Center for Economic and Policy Research . “These findings highlight the vital role unions play in advocating for equitable compensation for disabled workers, while also pointing to ongoing challenges that need to be addressed to achieve full economic parity.”
While these results show a clear association between union representation and stronger wages and benefits, further research could reveal whether and to what extent these benefits are tied to specific contract language or other factors.

Comment letter to CFPB supports proposed Consumer Financial Protection Bureau Regulation V Amendment
The Private Equity Stakeholder Project (PESP) and the Center for Economic and Policy Research (CEPR) have jointly submitted a public comment letter to the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) regarding the proposed amendment to Regulation V, which implements the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA).
This proposed rule aims to address the growing issue of medical debt by limiting creditors from obtaining or using information on medical debts for credit eligibility determinations. It would also prohibit consumer reporting agencies from giving creditors certain information on medical debts.
PESP and CEPR commend the CFPB’s proposed rule change as a critical step towards protecting patients from the unjust impacts of medical debt. The proposed amendment is seen as one of multiple solutions needed to mitigate the real harms resulting from inaccurate medical debt data held by private equity-owned debt collectors and others.
The comment letter aims to highlight the urgent need for regulatory changes to protect consumers from the predatory practices of private equity-owned debt collectors and others. PESP and CEPR urge the CFPB to adopt the proposed amendments to Regulation V to ensure more accurate reporting of medical debt and to reduce the financial burden on vulnerable populations.
“The proposed rule by the CFPB is a necessary step in addressing the real harms caused by inaccurate medical debt data held by private equity-owned debt collectors,” said Chris Noble, PESP policy director . “We must protect patients from unjust financial impacts and ensure that their credit reports reflect accurate information. The growing role of private equity in the medical debt crisis cannot be ignored. It is crucial that regulatory measures are implemented to mitigate the aggressive and often predatory practices these firms employ.”
“It’s bad enough that so many Americans go into debt to get necessary medical care — now they have to worry that debt collectors will punish them by damaging their credit. Private equity exacerbates this dynamic by striving to extract as much profit as they can, as quickly as they can,” said Brandon Novick, Program Outreach Assistant at the Center for Economic Policy & Research . “This new CFPB rule will help stop aggressive debt collectors from weaponizing medical debt and placing even greater burdens on financially-strapped American families.”

• Comunicado de prensa Elecciones América Latina y el Caribe Venezuela El Mundo
Washington, DC — Un nuevo informe del Center for Economic and Policy Research (CEPR) ofrece un análisis de las disputadas elecciones en Venezuela y esboza un camino a seguir para los actores internacionales, en particular Estados Unidos.
El informe recomienda que la administración Biden y otros actores internacionales apoyen los esfuerzos de Brasil, México y Colombia para llegar a un acuerdo negociado y permitan el avance de esfuerzos diplomáticos durante los cuatro meses previos a enero de 2025, cuando está previsto que comience el nuevo mandato presidencial en Venezuela. Los líderes de estos tres países cuentan con décadas de experiencia en el tratamiento de problemas análogos al actual conflicto en Venezuela, incluyendo conflictos electorales propios.
Desde las elecciones del 28 de julio, se han difundido dos series contradictorias de resultados: una del Consejo Nacional Electoral del país, según la cual el actual presidente, Nicolás Maduro, ganó por nueve puntos porcentuales; la otra, de la oposición venezolana, según la cual Edmundo González ganó por un margen de 37 puntos.
La oposición ha publicado miles de supuestas actas de escrutinio que parecen respaldar su afirmación; la autoridad electoral venezolana aún no ha publicado un desglose detallado de los resultados. Sin estos resultados detallados, es imposible verificar de forma independiente el anuncio de una victoria de Maduro por parte de las autoridades venezolanas.
Como señaló el CEPR antes de las elecciones, ni el gobierno ni la oposición aceptarían la victoria del otro, ya que ambas partes tenían razones válidas para cuestionar la imparcialidad de la votación. El informe señala que, aunque “se ha prestado mucha atención a los desafíos que la oposición venezolana ha enfrentado antes de las elecciones, ha habido poca discusión sobre el impacto de las amplias sanciones impuestas por Estados Unidos, y algunos de sus aliados europeos, y sobre cómo estas han hecho que sea prácticamente imposible tener una elección demócratica, o libre y justa en este momento”.
Las sanciones influyen en las elecciones por la destrucción masiva que han causado, estimada en mayor que el colapso económico padecido por Estados Unidos durante la Gran Depresión. También han causado al menos decenas de miles de muertos , lo que reduce claramente las posibilidades de reelección del presidente en funciones. Y lo que quizá sea aún más importante, millones de votantes venezolanos eran conscientes de que estas sanciones letales probablemente continuarían si reelegían el actual gobierno.
Aunque Estados Unidos ha mostrado cierto apoyo a la negociacion iniciada por estos países, su compromiso sigue siendo incierto, y podría cambiar tras la celebración de las elecciones estadounidenses. El informe muestra que los 25 años de intervención estadounidense en Venezuela, así como “[l]a historia de las dos últimas décadas de política exterior estadounidense en el hemisferio” harían que “cualquier observador racional desconfiara del papel potencial de Washington en un esfuerzo multilateral para resolver una crisis política, especialmente una en la que ya está profundamente comprometido a apoyar a un bando contra el otro”.
El informe señala que “volver a políticas anteriores fracasadas” no ayudará a resolver el conflicto y “ciertamente costará muchas vidas, y causará mucho más sufrimiento adicional”. Por todas estas y otras razones, el informe subraya que es especialmente importante apoyar los esfuerzos de Brasil, Colombia y México para contribuir a una solución negociada del conflicto. Los líderes de estos tres países “tienen décadas de experiencia lidiando con problemas análogos al actual conflicto en Venezuela, incluyendo desafíos electorales propios”. Estados Unidos debería apoyar los esfuerzos diplomáticos que se desarrollen en los cuatro meses que faltan hasta enero de 2025, cuando está previsto que comience el nuevo mandato presidencial en Venezuela.

This paper reviews the literature on the incidence of consumption and labor taxes and focuses on the empirical results that show stark departures from the canonical model of tax incidence, which I refer to as anomalies. In particular, there is mounting evidence questioning three fundamental implications of the canonical model: (1) that statutory incidence is irrelevant for economic incidence, (2) that the relative magnitude of the demand and supply elasticities is a sufficient statistic for tax incidence, and (3) that incidence is symmetric for increases and decreases. I review this empirical evidence and draw implications for the canonical model’s relevance.

The Bank of Japan released a pair of research papers highlighting the persistence of inflationary pressure in the economy, indicating there is still a case to be made for another interest rate hike.
The notes released Tuesday highlight the potential impact of the nation’s chronic labor shortage on wages and the shift in corporate behavior with regards to setting prices in the services sector. The papers were compiled by officials in the bank’s economics department and, as is customary, they came with a standard disclaimer that the views belong to the authors and don’t necessarily reflect the BOJ’s official stance.

Brad Herring, Paul College's McKerley Professor of Health Economics, recently received the 2023 Paper of the Year award from the journal Housing Policy Debate for his coauthored paper entitled "Using the Moving to Opportunity Experiment to Investigate the Long-Term Impact of Neighborhoods on Healthcare Use by Specific Clinical Conditions and Type of Service."
In their announcement , the Award Committee wrote: "The Moving to Opportunity experiment was an expensive undertaking meant to guide policy on rental assistance delivery. The results of the experiment have been debated over the years and continue to have relevance. This paper joins the Moving to Opportunity experimental results with the debate over healthcare use, another issue driving much of the debate on how to design the social safety net. The authors addressed a cutting-edge topic, employed careful methods, and provided clear and powerful implications for housing policy."
