02:45 PM EDT, 09/19/2025 (MT Newswires) -- Fed Governor Stephen Miran (voter) said in an interview with CNBC that he does not see a large impact on inflation from the Trump Administration's tariffs and emphasized the slowing of the job market as a reason to cut interest rates rapidly.

Miran said that in a speech on Sept. 22, he will explain his reasons for his dissent at the September FOMC meeting for a 50-basis point rate cut.

(Sept. 17) The Federal Open Market Committee lowered the federal funds rate by 25 basis points at its meeting to a range of 4.00% to 4.25%. The updated Summary of Economic Projections now sees two more rate reductions in 2025, compared with only one more in the last SEP. There is one cut seen in 2026 and another in 2027. Risks to employment have risen, the statement said, though changes in the SEP suggest slightly lower unemployment readings over the next two years along with higher inflation and GDP growth expectations.
