Economic Policy Institute (EPI)
This organization "is a nonprofit, nonpartisan think tank that
seeks to broaden the public debate about strategies to achieve a
prosperous and fair economy." Much of their work involves labor and
work issues. They offer commentary on recent CPI, GDP, and
unemployment releases. In addition, they have many analyses of
current issues, briefing papers, and press releases. Their "Reading
Between the Lines" analyzes economic articles in the popular press.
Their "Data Zone" offers detailed data on "Wage and Compensation
Trends," "Family Earnings and Income Trends," and "Prices" (many
take some work to find elsewhere). The data is available in
spreadsheet format.
