President Joe Biden is speaking at the Economic Club of Washington, D.C., on Thursday, where he is expected to celebrate falling inflation and interest rates.

“The declines in inflation and interest rates are welcome, but no one’s declaring victory,” National Economic Council Director Lael Brainard told reporters ahead of Biden’s remarks.
