Senator Elizabeth Warren, the ranking member of the U.S. Senate Committee on Banking, Housing and Urban Affairs, issued a statement calling on the Trump administration to release the delayed January Jobs Report as soon as possible and to immediately resume collection of February inflation data. Warren said the jobs data has already been collected and argued there is no justification for further delay, noting the report had been postponed due to a partial government shutdown that was expected to end days before the scheduled release. She also criticised the administration’s economic policies and said policymakers and financial markets should not face additional delays in accessing key economic data because House Republicans did not avert the partial shutdown.
