U.S. Birth Rate Trends: Patterns, Drivers, and Implications for American Families
PAA and APC Government and Public Affairs Committee will be hosting this Congressional Briefing on Wednesday, October 8, 3:30 to 4:30 p.m. in 2075 Rayburn House Office Building.
An expert panel of leading social scientists will discuss national and international birth rate trends and evidence on the effects of policy incentives, such as tax credits and paid family leave, in impacting an individual’s decision to start a family. The discussion is particularly timely given the Trump Administration’s interest in encouraging higher birth rates nationwide.
Speakers:
- Dr. Karen Benjamin Guzzo, University of North Carolina-Chapel Hill
- Dr. Melissa Kearney, University of Notre Dame
- Dr. Jennifer Sciubba, Population Reference Bureau
