Senator Jack Reed calls for an investigation into President Trump's dismissal of the Bureau of Labor Statistics director.
Quiver AI Summary
Senator Jack Reed is advocating for a special investigation into President Trump's dismissal of the Commissioner of the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), Erika McEntarfer, following a jobs report that highlighted adverse economic impacts from Trump's tariffs. Reed asserts that the firing undermines the integrity of U.S. economic data and poses risks to the economy.
Reed claims that the President is trying to politicize economic statistics, stating, "President Trump seems to think he can cheat on U.S. economic data." He views the termination as detrimental to investor confidence and a threat to the critical mission of the BLS.
Former Treasury Secretary Larry Summers called Trump's actions unprecedented, linking them to Nixon-era controversies, while ex-BLS commissioner William Beach deemed the rationale for McEntarfer's firing "without merit." Reed expresses the need for oversight to prevent further politicization of economic data.
