Trump Administration Critiques U.S. Labor Statistics Bureau

The Trump administration is preparing a report critical of the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), which was recently dismissed by President Donald Trump five weeks ago. The study, prepared by the Council of Economic Advisers, will examine the BLS’s employment data and highlight potential flaws in its methodology. It is expected to be released within the coming weeks. Meanwhile, the BLS is scheduled to release its annual benchmark revision for non-farm payrolls later tonight (9th) UTC+8.
