| The DC Fiscal Policy Institute conducts research and public education on budget and tax issues in the District of Columbia, with a particular emphasis on issues that affect low- and moderate-income residents. By preparing timely analyses that are used by policy makers, the media, and the public, DCFPI seeks to inform public debates on budget and tax issues and to ensure that the needs of lower-income residents are considered in those debates.

DCFPI writes a monthly column –"The Numbers" — that runs in the Hill Rag, East of the River, and DC North. All are owned by Capital Community News.
The June column makes the point that it is ok for the DC budget to grow, as long as that means more services that residents want, because in the end you get what you pay for. The column also notes how growth in budget earmarks this year has contributed to cynicism about DC government.
