Economic Advisors

Economic Advisors supply White House leaders with detailed market forecasts, policy breakdowns, and fiscal risk assessments. They brief Leo on leak-induced sell-offs, Wall Street responses to Bartlet's MS diagnosis, and costs of unfunded mandates like ADA burdens in Danville, Virginia. Leo summons them to urgent 3:30 meetings during market turmoil, adjusting schedules for their input ahead of other briefings. They weather Bartlet's rebukes, adapt to Oval Office shifts toward family or security matters, and join conference calls with the President on tax plans amid reelection pressures.
