Contradicted by data published by the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the Bureau of Economic Analysis, the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, the Congressional Budget Office, and the Department of the Treasury.

About the tiers. Tier A entries are statements where the documentary record contradicts the claim unambiguously: data published by a federal agency, a court ruling, a peer-reviewed scientific finding, or the speaker's own prior on-record statement. Tier B entries are statements that are misleading by significant framing, omission of context, or use of a non-standard methodology not disclosed to the audience. The distinction matters for the editorial defense of each entry. We publish both.
