29 U.S.C. § 6 — Annual and special reports to President and Congress

The Commissioner of Labor Statistics must write and send an annual report to both the President and Congress. That report contains the information the Commissioner has gathered and organized, plus any recommendations the Commissioner thinks would make the department run better. Beyond that yearly report, the Commissioner can also write special reports on particular subjects — whenever the President or either House of Congress asks for one, or whenever the Commissioner thinks a subject under his charge needs it. Separately, by March 15 of each year, the Commissioner must send Congress a detailed report listing all the money spent under his direction during the previous fiscal year.
