The Better Labor Statistics Act, or BLS Act, mandates the Secretary of Labor to **collect and publicly report** labor statistics, shifting from discretionary to compulsory action. This legislation requires these statistics to be **published online by the first Friday of each month**, significantly increasing the frequency and accessibility of labor data. A key provision of the bill is the requirement for all labor statistics reports to include **data disaggregated by individual demographics**, specifically geography, race, ethnicity, and gender. This aims to provide a more granular understanding of labor market conditions across different population groups. Additionally, the bill modernizes outdated language in existing statutes related to the Bureau of Labor Statistics' reporting duties.
