特朗普撤回E.J. Antoni担任劳工统计局局长的提名
摘要
在对Antoni的资格和公正性产生担忧后，特朗普总统撤回了其领导劳工统计局的提名。
据白宫官员透露，特朗普总统已撤回了E.J. Antoni担任劳工统计局（BLS）局长的提名。此决定是在Antoni——保守派传统基金会的首席经济学家——因其资格和公正性受到批评后作出的。
Antoni的提名是在8月份，之前劳工统计局前局长Erika McEntarfer被解职，特朗普无证据指控她操纵就业数据。劳工统计局隶属于劳工部，负责关键的经济报告，包括每月的就业统计和消费者价格指数。
Antoni一直是劳工统计局的直言不讳的批评者，他曾表示该机构的报告常常感觉像“随机数字生成器”，并称拜登政府时期的通胀数据是“虚假数字”，来自“虚构的魔法世界”，低估了物价上涨的幅度。
Antoni提名的撤回使劳工统计局在经济数据准确性和独立性受到审查的时期，暂时没有常任领导。白宫已表示将很快公布新的提名人选。
