Stephanie Colombini: 飓风伊代利亚对佛罗里达州造成的破坏小于飓风伊恩，但仍然造成人员伤亡和财产损失。灾后恢复工作面临挑战，尤其是在受灾严重的农村地区。居民们正在清理家园，并申请援助。政府已批准灾难声明，提供联邦资金援助。
Scott Horsley: 就业市场强劲，但就业增长速度有所放缓，这与美联储的预期相符。失业率上升，但仍然处于低位，更多人重返劳动力市场。工资增长强劲，但消费者支出增速快于收入增速，未来可能面临放缓。好莱坞编剧和演员罢工导致电影行业就业岗位减少，汽车工人罢工也可能造成进一步影响。
Deirdre Walsh: 国会即将复会，面临政府停摆、灾难援助和对乌克兰援助等问题。参议院少数党领袖麦康奈尔健康状况引发担忧，众议院议长麦卡锡面临来自保守派对拜登总统发起弹劾的压力。
