Join the Roosevelt Institute for our latest Rediscovering Government event in Washington, D.C. on Thursday, June 21. Roosevelt Institute Senior Fellow Jeff Madrick will lead a roundtable of scholars including public opinion expert Ruy Teixeira and economists Peter Lindert, Lane Kenworthy, and Jon Bakija as they present the best available evidence about how the size and scope of government affect the U.S. economy. 

As Republicans cheer for public sector job losses and warn that big government is crowding out the private sector, our roundtable seeks to challenge anti-government economic myths and reframe the national dialogue around the positive impact and irreplaceable role of government spending.

To RSVP for the event, please contact Madeleine Ehrlich.

Date: June 21, 2012 from 12:00 p.m. to 1:30 p.m.

Location: Washington, D.C.
