Economic Outlook Thank you, Paul, for that kind introduction. I am honored to speak with you and all who have joined us here today.1 Persistently elevated inflation imposes an unacceptable burden on American families, and it is the Federal Reserve's responsibility to restore price stability. As a monetary policymaker, this challenge is top of mind for me. I am watching both sides of our dual mandate—price stability and maximum employment. However, as I have stated at several points this year, the risks from high inflation concern me more at this time.2 Even though this week's consumer price index and producer price index reports were softer than expected, they still imply that the price index we target rose 3.7 percent in the 12 months through June.

To contextualize my views on the dual mandate, I would like to give you a broader sense of my economic outlook and discuss recent developments in monetary policy.
