WASHINGTON — President Joe Biden on Wednesday celebrated new data that showed inflation cooling more quickly than expected.
"Good jobs and lower costs: That's Bidenomics in action," Biden said in a statement.
Year over year, inflation rose 3%, the lowest level in more than two years.
Core CPI, which does not include food and energy costs, rose 4.8% from a year ago and 0.2% on a monthly basis.
"Our progress creating jobs while lowering costs for families is no accident, and I will continue to fight for lower costs for families every day."
