Summary
How many jobs did the economy add last year? How unequally is wealth distributed in the United States, and which policies have narrowed this gap over time? The answers depend, in part, on information that requires the collection of data and production of economic statistics. Recent and ongoing threats to the stability and independence of the federal statistical system, its component agencies, and its leadership have served to underscore this system’s economic and social value for a broad set of stakeholders.
