Joe Biden Adviser Mistakenly Claims ‘Easter Was in March’ to Explain Low Employment Numbers

Charlie Spiering 14 May 2021

President Joe Biden’s economic adviser mistakenly said Easter was in the month of March in 2021, arguing it was a reason why unemployment numbers were worse than expected.

“I think Easter happened in March this year, the seasonal adjustments were a little funny within the BLS report,” White House Chair of the Council of Economic Advisers Cecilia Rouse said.

Easter was on April 4th in 2021.

Rouse appeared at the White House press briefing Friday to discuss the latest discouraging economic numbers.

She stressed there would be some “choppiness” in the month-to-month numbers and encouraged Americans to watch overall trends.

“I think it’s really important not to read too much into that one report,” she said.

But the administration is currently facing a series of disappointing economic reports.
