Summary
Fixes #587.
This adds ORG-derived labor-market inputs to
policyengine-us-data:hourly_wage,is_paid_hourly, andis_union_member_or_coveredonto CPS personsWhy
The pre-ORG eCPS was effectively missing hourly-pay status, which feeds the overtime eligibility path in
policyengine-us. Adding ORG materially improves the estimated overtime tax expenditure on the published eCPS weights.Using the same published
enhanced_cps_2024.h5before and after ORG overlay:$9.63Bto$14.56B+$4.93Bor+51.2%Caveat: that comparison is on the published eCPS weights with ORG overlaid, not a fully regenerated Enhanced CPS artifact.
