The most extraordinary charts I've seen this weekend the LHS one from Parker Ross of Arch Capital Group and RHS one from Wendy Edelberg Tara E W of the The Hamilton Project. 1. We've been struggling to accurately account for population growth and by extension labor force growth.

Higher-than-projected immigration could mean that published data in the Current Population Survey (CPS) underestimate population growth and, thus, employment growth for both foreign-born and U.S.-born people. More from Wendy Edelberg and Tara E W: hamiltonproject.org/publication/po…

AESG Director Melissa S. Kearney & Wendy Edelberg Brookings Econ offer a bipartisan way forward in their proposal for an enhanced, partially refundable CTC. Read it here: economicstrategygroup.org/publication/a-…

Put tomorrow's #JobsDay numbers in context with Wendy Edelberg and Tara E W’s recent piece on immigration’s implications for estimates of both foreign-born and U.S.-born employment: hamiltonproject.org/publication/po…

I am worried about the softening in employment growth relative to the strong momentum I see in labor supply (from immigration). But a 50 bps cut could telegraph unwarranted panic. So, there’d have to be some consensus so that FOMC would could start laying the groundwork now.
