Details of the Budget Deal in (sort of) plain language

CBO's cost estimate lays out the essence of the provisions, and also a concise description of how the process going forward will work.   Even better is the CBO Director's Blog.   There is no mention of the CPI change as described in my previous post.  So, that provision appears not to be in the current agreement.  Perhaps it will come in the next one, if there is ever an agreement at any time ever again over anything.
