The US Federal Reserve shrugged off political uncertainty in Washington and moved ahead with a quarter-point rate cut Thursday, easing monetary policy further as inflation continues to cool.

Policymakers voted unanimously to lower the US central bank’s key lending rate to between 4.50 percent and 4.75 percent, the Fed announced in a statement, noting that “labor market conditions have generally eased.”
