Larry Kotlikoff joins Steve Laffey's Presidential Campaign as Chief Economic Advisor

Manchester, NH - May 15, 2023

In a major boost to Steve Laffey’s presidential campaign, the former mayor of Cranston announced that Dr. Larry Kotlikoff would join the campaign as the chief economic advisor.

Dr. Kotlikoff, a renowned economist and professor at Boston University, is best known for his work on public finance and social security. He has authored 20 books, and his writings on economics and politics have been cited worldwide.

In his role as the Chief Economic Advisor, Dr. Kotlikoff will lead the economic policy team and advise Laffey on policy proposals that encompass the full range of financial issues facing the country.

Laffey praised Dr. Kotlikoff's decision to join the campaign, stating, "Larry brings a level of expertise and knowledge to our team that is unmatched in economics and politics. His dedication to tackling complex economic issues and creating sustainable growth is exactly what we need to ignite our economy and restore America's prosperity."

Dr. Kotlikoff added, "I met Steve in 2011 when he interviewed me for Fixing America -- the Movie. We've been discussing his candidacy ever since. Steve and I differ on several issues, like the right to choose and how to deal with China. But we're generally very closely aligned.  Indeed, I'm very proud to serve as Steve's economics advisor."

The announcement of Dr. Kotlikoff's appointment comes at a critical juncture for the Laffey campaign. With the economy still reeling from the COVID-19 pandemic, voters are looking for candidates with sound economic policies and the experience to navigate the complexities of the challenges facing us. Dr. Kotlikoff's appointment positions Laffey as someone who takes economic issues seriously and is committed to finding solutions that work.

The campaign has already released a comprehensive economic plan that features policy proposals related to social security, the Fed, energy, and infrastructure. With Dr. Kotlikoff on board, the campaign is poised to present a bold and detailed economic vision that will resonate with voters of all stripes.

In the coming weeks and months, Dr. Kotlikoff will be working closely with Laffey, the campaign staff, and volunteers to develop and fine-tune the economic policies that will form the backbone of the campaign.
