How does this bill advance evidence-based policies?
Creates 12-member bipartisan Commission on Evidence-Based Policymaking. Studies how Congress can "encourage Federal agencies to produce and prioritize evidence on effectiveness for major new programs" and "incorporate evidence such as outcomes measurement, rigorous impact analysis into lawmaking process." Builds on 2018 Foundations for Evidence-Based Policymaking Act.
