Inflation Reduction Act Funding to Benefit Swing States the Most, According to Analysts

In a move that is expected to have significant implications for the US economy, the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) has allocated funding to key swing states, analysts claim. The act, which was signed into law by President Joe Biden in August, aims to reduce inflation and promote economic growth through a range of measures, including investments in clean energy, healthcare, and education.

According to a new report by the non-partisan think tank, the Center for Economic and Policy Research (CEPR), the IRA’s funding allocation is expected to benefit swing states the most. The report, which analyzed data from the US Census Bureau and the Bureau of Labor Statistics, found that the top five states in terms of IRA funding are:

  1. Ohio: With an estimated $14.3 billion in IRA funding, Ohio is set to receive the largest amount of funding of any state. The state’s rust belt economy is expected to benefit from investments in clean energy and manufacturing.
  2. Pennsylvania: With an estimated $10.4 billion in IRA funding, Pennsylvania is second on the list. The state’s economy is expected to benefit from investments in healthcare and education.
  3. Florida: With an estimated $9.5 billion in IRA funding, Florida is third on the list. The state’s tourism and hospitality industries are expected to benefit from investments in infrastructure and transportation.
  4. Michigan: With an estimated $8.8 billion in IRA funding, Michigan is fourth on the list. The state’s manufacturing sector is expected to benefit from investments in clean energy and transportation.
  5. Wisconsin: With an estimated $8.2 billion in IRA funding, Wisconsin rounds out the top five. The state’s agricultural sector is expected to benefit from investments in rural development and infrastructure.

The report’s authors argue that the IRA’s funding allocation is a strategic move by the Biden administration to boost economic growth in key swing states. "By investing in these states, the Biden administration is hoping to stimulate economic growth and create jobs in areas that are critical to the country’s economic future," said CEPR economist, Dean Baker.

The IRA’s funding allocation is expected to have far-reaching implications for the US economy, and analysts are closely watching how the funding is distributed and utilized.
