Yes, they did. They publish data monthly on average hourly earnings of all employees. It doesn’t take a master statistician to take that and compare it against CPI-U and see that the average earnings one is now bigger compared against a Jan 2020 baseline. Do you want me to send you my excel from last night?

BLS never announced that. An “economic” think tank did. Coincidentally the math doesn’t work out and it’s an election year.

So did they announce it or are you interpreting the data they put out.
