Topicair filters lead to better student performance because it reduces pollution

https://www.edworkingpapers.com/ai20-188

This paper identifies the achievement impact of installing air filters in classrooms for the first time. To do so, I leverage a unique setting arising from the largest gas leak in United States history, whereby the offending gas company installed air filters in every classroom, office and common area for all schools within five miles of the leak (but not beyond). This variation allows me to compare student achievement in schools receiving air filters relative to those that did not using a spatial regression discontinuity design. I find substantial improvements in student achievement: air filter exposure led to a 0.20 increase in mathematics and English scores, with test score improvements persisting into the following year. Air testing conducted inside schools during the leak (but before air filters were installed) showed no presence of natural gas pollutants, implying that the effectiveness of air filters came from removing common air pollutants and so these results should extend to other settings. The results indicate that air filter installation is a highly cost-effective policy to raise student achievement and, given that underprivileged students attend schools in highly polluted areas, one that can reduce the pervasive test score gaps that plague public education.

they're essentially killing off the countryside, since there are areas that don't have access to charging stations for electric cars and where power outages are frequent enough that you'd need a gas generator as a backup

they're not going to build a fuckton of new infrastructure in remote, countryside areas for a bunch of poor people whose primary mode of transportation is a gas-guzzling shitbucket from the 90's

What goes behind analyzing tax cuts? My impression of it is just politicians throwing shit out there

Well in my case we use a proprietary model that utilizes various pieces of administrative and demographic data so I don't actually need to know all that much lol

But it's pretty straightforward, so like we cut the top income tax rate, it's pretty easy to project how much revenue you'll lose and what income bracket will benefit most from that

In practice, though, you're correct that many politicians ultimately don't care much about the actual consequences of their legislation outside of how it impacts their ability to get re elected.

And I've spoken with a couple of people running for state house and they've been using some of the data I shared with them in their talking points and stuff.

I mean I know neither of those things are really a big deal and someone else would do it if I didn't but its still kind of a trip to sit back and think about it, like huh, I did that.
