Just Economics LLC is a small policy-focused advisory firm based in Washington, District of Columbia, with more than three decades of experience helping communities align fiscal instruments and regulatory frameworks with public policy goals. It targets efforts such as reducing blight by reusing vacant and boarded-up properties, expanding business and employment opportunities, financing transit and other public infrastructure, easing parking and traffic congestion, improving housing affordability, benefiting the environment, and limiting urban sprawl. By re-engineering taxes, fees, and regulations, the firm seeks to create incentives for the private sector to advance jobs, affordable housing, transportation efficiency, and sustainable economic development while ensuring necessary public revenues and enhancing government sustainability and competitiveness. In November 2022, Just Economics partnered with Pisgah Legal Services to organize tenants' rights workshops, aiming to inform renters, particularly those most affected by the affordable housing crisis. This collaboration illustrates the firm's engagement with community organizations to address housing policy and empower affected residents.
