To provide the Congress with a comprehensive review of its work, the Congressional Budget
Office publishes quarterly reports that highlight the agency's recent publications and summarize
its work in progress.' Over the past three months, CBO has produced a variety of budget and
economic analyses, fulfilling the agency's core mission of supporting the Congress during each
stage of the legislative process. The agency's work takes many forms, including technical
assistance, cost estimates, testimonies, reports, and other analytic products.


A  Brief  Look   at 2023
In calendar year 2023, CBO fulfilled thousands of Congressional requests for technical
assistance, published 598 cost estimates, and released 104 reports, working papers, and other
analytic products.

For instance, CBO provided technical assistance and estimates at each stage of the legislative
process for the Fiscal Responsibility Act of 2023 (Public Law 118-5), the National Defense
Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2024 (P.L. 118-31), and H.R. 1, the Lower Energy Costs Act.
The agency also fulfilled thousands of requests for technical assistance related to annual
appropriation bills and the reauthorization of the farm bill.2

In addition, CBO released a set of budget and economic projections in February. The agency
updated its budget projections in May, its annual long-term budget projections in June, and its
economic projections in July and December. CBO's baseline budget and economic projections
serve as a benchmark for many of the analytic reports, working papers, and other documents
published by the agency. Last year, CBO's publications examined a variety of topics, including
military compensation, flood damage and federally backed mortgages in a changing climate,
federal subsidies for health insurance, the long-term fiscal effects of Medicaid spending on
children, and the distribution of household income. CBO aimed to promote a thorough
understanding of those topics by clearly presenting its analyses and explaining the basis for them.

All of those efforts were undertaken with the goal of providing information when it was most
useful to the Congress.
