In recognition of Asian American, Native Hawaiian and Pacific Islander (AANHPI) Heritage Month, the U.S. Congress Joint Economic Committee and the Congressional Asian Pacific American Caucus have released a new report on economic disparities in the AANHPI community, their contributions to the U.S. economy and the need for more disaggregated data.

Today, Congressman Don Beyer (D-VA), Chairman of the U.S. Congress Joint Economic Committee (JEC); Senator Martin Heinrich (D-NM), Vice Chair of the JEC; and Congresswoman Sharice Davids (D-KS), Native American Caucus Co-Chair and member of the JEC released a new analysis on the persistent structural barriers facing Native American communities and how they hinder economic opportunity, mobility and well-being.

Congressman Don Beyer (D-VA), Chairman of the U.S. Congress Joint Economic Committee (JEC), released the following statement after the Bureau of Labor Statistics reported the April Consumer Price Index rose 0.3 % on a seasonally adjusted basis, down from 1.2% in March.
