House urged to probe McEntarfer's sacking
-
White House economic advisers on Sunday defended President Donald Trump's firing of the head of the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), pushing back against criticism that Mr Trump's action could undermine confidence in official United States economic data.
Later on Sunday, Mr Trump again criticised BLS Commissioner Erika McEntarfer, without providing evidence of wrongdoing, and said he would name a new BLS commissioner in the next three or four days.
US Trade Representative Jamieson Greer told CBS that Mr Trump had "real concerns" about the BLS data, while Kevin Hassett, director of the National Economic Council, said the president "is right to call for new leadership".
Mr Hassett said on Fox News Sunday the main concern was Friday's BLS report of net downward revisions showing 258,000 fewer jobs had been created in May and June than previously reported.
Mr Trump accused Ms McEntarfer of faking the jobs numbers.
