'We have to have accurate data': Rep. Don Bacon reacts to President Trump firing labor statistics chief

Nebraska Congressman Don Bacon is weighing in after the president fired the labor statistics chief.

President Donald Trump removed Erika McEntarfer from the role hours after a weak jobs report. Trump said he plans to name a new commissioner of the Bureau of Labor Statistics in the coming days.

Bacon spoke to CNN Monday night. He said it was a mistake to fire the director before getting the facts first. Bacon called the president's actions "shooting the messenger."
