This June the White House released a proposal that would shift the Bureau of Labor Statistics from the Department of Labor to the Department of Commerce, joining with the Bureau of Economic Analysis and the U.S. Census Bureau under a single economics and statistics agency. Join us for a facilitated conversation with Dr. Ken Poole as he talks with Dr. Nancy Potok, Chief Statistician of the United States at the Office of Management and Budget and Dr. Erica Groshen, former Commissioner of the Bureau of Labor Statistics. Attendees will learn more about the reorganization from Dr. Potok and Dr. Groshen, better understand the rationale for the proposal, and gain insights about key considerations that still need to be addressed. This is your chance to provide feedback about your concerns. You are strongly encouraged to bring questions, concerns, and ideas to the conversation.

Presenters:
Dr. Nancy A. Potok, Chief Statistician of the United States, U.S. Office of Management and Budget
Dr. Erica Groshen, Former Commissioner, Bureau of Labor Statistics
Dr. Kenneth E. Poole, CEO, Center for Regional Economic Competitiveness
