U.S. President Donald Trump announced on Sunday that big changes are coming to the nation’s economic boards. In just three to four days, he plans to name a new head for the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS). This decision follows his recent dismissal of BLS Commissioner Erika McEntarfer, who was accused of manipulating job numbers without any supporting evidence.
In another move stirring conversations in policy circles, Trump stated he will soon announce a candidate for an open position at the Federal Reserve. This vacancy arose after Fed Governor Adriana Kugler resigned early from her term, opening a door for a fresh appointment.
The unexpected shake-up has added yet another twist to the evolving story of U.S. economic governance. As both jobs data and central bank leadership face scrutiny, many are watching closely to see how these changes unfold. Stay tuned for more updates on this dramatic episode in American economic news! ⚡️📊
