The White House’s economic adviser revealed on Thursday that there will be no official unemployment rate for October due to the government shutdown but that the Trump administration might “concoct” some numbers.
National Economic Council Director Kevin Hassett told Fox News that the government would release its employment report for October, but without the jobless rate.
“The household survey wasn’t conducted in October, so we’re gonna get half the unemployment report,” Hassett, 63, told America’s Newsroom. “We’ll maybe be able to concoct something, but we’ll never actually know for sure what the unemployment rate was in October.”
