Former Home Depot CEO on Fed officials warning over jobs data: ‘About time’ the government ‘got honest’

Home Depot’s former CEO is calling for the government to tell the truth, as Federal Reserve governors are warning about U.S. jobs data being inflated.

During an appearance on "The Evening Edit," Monday, Bob Nardelli suggested that the country’s jobs data is "woefully overstated," arguing that it's "about time" the government "got honest." 

"You and I watch this very closely every month," Nardelli told host Elizabeth MacDonald in response to Federal Reserve Governors Michelle Bowman and Lisa Cook warning that job gains are overstated, and the labor market could be weaker than we realize.
