This morning in his Wall Street Journal op-ed House Budget Committee Chairman Paul Ryan (R-WI) referenced a new report from The Heritage Foundation’s Center for Data Analysis on his Path to Prosperity budget. Specifically, Ryan wrote:

According to Heritage’s analysis, it would result in $1.1 trillion in higher wages and an average of $1,000 in additional family income each year.
