SHORT HILLS, N.J., Nov. 13, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Despite the tremendous success and proven results of the Christopher & Dana Reeve Foundation's National Paralysis Resource Center (NPRC), as part of this year's budget negotiation process, the House majority has proposed a bill that will dramatically cut funding for the NPRC by $5 million, nearly 50%, for Fiscal Year 2024. The proposed legislation, which may be considered by the House as early as this week, also includes cuts to biomedical research and other essential health programs that support people with disabilities.

Key Points:

The proposed cuts would severely impact the ability of the NPRC to provide essential services, information, and support to those living with paralysis, their families, and caregivers.
Congress must not ignore the needs of the paralysis community, and we will not stand idly by as life-changing programs like the NPRC are dismantled.
The NPRC is a free, comprehensive, national source of informational support for people living with paralysis and their caregivers.
Since its founding in 2002, the NPRC has helped hundreds of thousands of people access information, receive direct mentoring and personalized support.

Age pension cost to ease by 2060s but super tax breaks to swell: Intergenerational report

Retrieved on:

Tuesday, August 22, 2023

Expenditure on age and service pensions is projected to fall from about 2.3% of GDP in 2022–23 to 2% in the early 2060s.

Key Points:

Expenditure on age and service pensions is projected to fall from about 2.3% of GDP in 2022–23 to 2% in the early 2060s.
These tax concessions are projected to overtake spending on the age pension in the 2040s.
The increase is driven primarily by earnings tax concessions rising from about 1% of GDP in 2022–23 to 1.5% in 2062–63.
The figures will refocus attention on the generous tax breaks for superannuation, although attempting change is politically fraught.
The intergenerational report puts the number of people 65 and over at about nine million by the early 2060s – up from nearly 4.4 million in the 2021 census.
Beyond the Stage 3 tax cuts, which Anthony Albanese has said repeatedly will go ahead, the government is not contemplating other income tax changes this term.
And despite the Business Council of Australia’s call for comprehensive tax reform, the government favours any longer term tax reform to be in bite size increments.
