Institute on Taxation and Economic Policy

The Institute on Taxation and Economic Policy (ITEP) is a non-profit, non-partisan research organization founded in 1980, headquartered in the United States. ITEP's mission is to inform the debate on tax policy nationwide by providing in-depth analyses on the effects of federal, state, and local tax policies. The organization aims to ensure a fair and sustainable tax system that raises enough revenue to fund common priorities such as education, healthcare, infrastructure, and public safety.

ITEP researchers utilize a tax incidence model to produce distributional analyses estimating the revenue impact of current and proposed tax policies, while also projecting real-life economic effects on taxpayers at every income level. Additionally, ITEP examines Fortune 500 companies' financial filings to provide information on corporate tax practices to policymakers and the public.

ITEP secured its latest investment in the form of a grant on 14 March 2024, with Share Our Strength being the investor. This demonstrates continued support and recognition of ITEP's valuable contributions to the national tax policy debate.
