Elizabeth Warren's Plan Cuts Deficit More Than Scott Brown's: Analysis

Democratic Senate candidate Elizabeth Warren's deficit-cutting proposals would reduce the national debt by 67 percent more over a period of 10 years than proposals offered by Sen. Scott Brown (R-Mass.), according to a Boston Globe report.

The report is based on an independent analysis after both candidates offered five ideas for bridging the country’s $1.2 trillion deficit to the Globe. Though neither candidate provided a comprehensive plan, the analysis concluded that Warren's plan would trim $1.029 trillion from the deficit over the next 10 years, while Brown’s would cut $614.4 billion.
