What are the biggest EA Questions in American Politics?

Hi folks, I hope all is well. This coming Saturday (September 17th, 2022), I will be on a roundtable discussing Effective Altruism and Political Science at the 2022 American Political Science Association (APSA) Meeting. One of the things I will be discussing is how research in American politics and in EA can be mutually beneficial to each other. I have my own thoughts about this question, but I’m sure that like everyone, I have my blind spots.

So the questions I ask folks here are, what American politics research questions are most important in EA, and what EA research questions are most important in American politics? I look forward to your comments to reduce my blind spots.

If you are interested in learning more about Research in Effective Altruism and Political Science (REAPS), I recommend you visit its website.
