MMT; The Deficit Myth, sovereign-currency framing

Professor of economics and public policy at Stony Brook University and former chief economist for the U.S. Senate Budget Committee (minority staff). She served as a senior economic adviser to Bernie Sanders's presidential campaigns. Her 2020 book 'The Deficit Myth' brought MMT to a mainstream audience, reframing government spending around inflation constraints rather than revenue constraints.
