So great to see BLS back to work measuring and informing us about our large and dynamic economy.
It’s a great institution full of dedicated civil servants deeply committed their mission. They have had a tough year, and everyone is covering for someone who left. I thank them all for their service.

Economic data is back following government reopening - here are the key events this week
US economic data 2025: The U.S. government has reopened after its longest shutdown, paving the way for the release of critical economic data such as the September jobs report, CPI, PPI, and PCE. Key c...
#CornellILR's @ericagroshen.bsky.social says that the unusual length of the government closure means that some data was not collected on schedule, creating potential gaps in the upcoming reports. Each economic series will be affected differently depending on how, when + from whom data was gathered.

The government is back open. Here’s what that means for economic data | CNN Business
The US government has reopened following its longest-ever shutdown, setting the stage for the eventual release of the gold-standard federal data that is crucial in analyzing the health and trajectory ...
Each economic data series will be affected differently by the shutdown, depending on how, when and from whom the data is collected, said @ericagroshen.bsky.social, senior economics advisor at #CornellILR. Still, expect the BLS and other agencies to prioritize Principal Federal Economic Indicators.

Butchered jobs and inflation data may add fuel to the fire of uncertainty already blazing in the markets | Fortune
A worldwide selloff accelerates as patchy U.S. data clouds the Fed’s next move, sending Wall Street tumbling and volatility surging into the end of the week.
#CornellILR's @ericagroshen.bsky.social, senior economic advisor and former commissioner of the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), advises against substituting private-sector data for official federal economic reports, underscoring the challenges facing policymakers and investors.
