CEEMI Op-Ed on Denver Basic Income Project Helps Clarify Misleading Coverage

October 27, 2024

In a Westword Op-Ed, CEEMI’s Senior Advisor Dave Anderson de-mystifies what a large scale randomized evaluation of the Denver Basic Income Project actually found, and fact-checks misleading claims about the implications of the evaluation circulating in the community.

At least one Denver City Councilman subsequently said this Op-Ed helped clarify his thinking ahead of a key vote on whether the city should commit additional funding to the project.
