Common Ground Committee brought its exciting new style of debate to a new venue, the famed 92nd Street Y with a stimulating debate about tax reform by a panel of nationally-known experts. Jared Bernstein served as Economic Policy Adviser to Vice President Joseph Biden. His books include “All Together Now: Common Sense for a Fair Economy”, and appears regularly on CNBC’s The Kudlow Report. Dr. Laffer is best known for the Laffer Curve. He was a member of President Reagan’s Economic Policy Advisory Board and is the author of many books, including “Supply Side Economics”. Gail Chaddock, Congressional Correspondent for the Christian Science Monitor, brought her knowledge of Washington and politics to bear on the question of realistic expectations of congressional action on tax reform.
