Abstract: This special issue on “Advancing the Federal Budget Debate: The Debt, Deficits, Budgeting Rules & Practices,” goes to press at the same time a new US presidential administration faces daunting fiscal challenges. The articles in the issue are all written by public finance and budgeting experts. In five original research articles, two research notes, and five commentary essays, the authors provide a rigorous discourse on US fiscal sustainability. Their scholarly analysis is comprehensive, understandable, reliable, thoughtful, informative and non‐partisan. This issue provides a critical analysis of the issues and practices essential to understanding the federal government's fiscal quagmire, as well as practical solutions for policymakers to debate going forward.
