Biden Econ Advisor Cecilia Rouse Can’t Say When Americans Can Expect Relief From Sky-High Inflation
Reporter: So, I’m going to ask about the other thing today, the jobs report, if I could. (Laughter.) So, the average hourly wages in the jobs report is up 4.6 percent. The CPI inflation is 6.4 percent. That — its — inflation has been outpacing wages for about a year and a half. When can Americans expect that to reverse — relief from that?

Chair Rouse: So, we did see that on an annual basis — we saw some wage — the nominal wages went up slower than what we expect. We don’t have the CPI report for this month, but based on what we had in January.

Q: manufacturing lost 4,000 jobs
A: focus on any one month

Reporter: And on jobs, real quick. On jobs, manufacturing lost 4,000 jobs. With the focus on manufacturing here, what happened?

Chair Rouse: So, again, it — so, yes, but we had one month, and we don’t like to focus on any one month.
