Alex Kilander

Policy Analyst, Center for Funding America's Future

Alex Kilander is a Policy Analyst with PPI’s Center for Funding America’s Future, which develops fiscally responsible policy proposals to strengthen public investments in the foundation of our economy, modernize health and retirement programs to reflect an aging society, transform our tax code to reward work over wealth, and put the national debt on a downward trajectory.

Prior to joining PPI, Alex worked at the Treasury Department in the Office of the Secretary. His role there focused on managing the Secretary’s daily briefing materials for a diverse set of issues within Treasury’s jurisdiction. Before Treasury, Alex served as a staffer for the House Appropriations Committee and as a Research Assistant for the National Institute for Early Education Research.

Alex graduated from Princeton University with a Bachelor of Arts in Public and International Affairs, where he wrote a thesis on the 2021 expanded Child Tax Credit’s implementation.
