Office of the Secretary


All Items Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers; United 
States City Average

    Pursuant to Section 112 of the 1976 amendments to the Federal 
Election Campaign Act, 52 U.S.C. 30116(c), the Secretary of Labor has 
certified to the Chairman of the Federal Election Commission and 
publishes this notice in the Federal Register that the United States 
City Average All Items Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers 
(CPI-U) (1967 = 100) increased 418.5 percent from its 1974 annual 
average of 147.7 to its 2019 annual average of 765.836 and that it 
increased 44.4 percent from its 2001 annual average of 530.4 to its 
2019 annual average of 765.836. Using 1974 as a base (1974 = 100), I 
certify that the CPI-U thus increased 418.5 percent from its 1974 
annual average of 100 to its 2019 annual average of 518.508. Using 2001 
as a base (2001 = 100), I certify that the CPI-U increased 44.4 percent 
from its 2001 annual average of 100 to its 2019 annual average of 
144.388. Using 2006 as a base (2006 = 100), I certify that the CPI-U 
increased 26.8 percent from its 2006 annual average of 100 to its 2019 
annual average of 126.815.

    Signed at Washington, DC.
Eugene Scalia,
Secretary of Labor.
