What this President has done:
Under the previous Administration, 170,000 manufacturing jobs were lost.
Under President Biden, 800,000 manufacturing jobs have been created.
That is the fastest growth in 40 years.

The last time the unemployment rate was this low, we had yet to set foot on the moon. Think about that.
Together, weāre building an America where everyone has a fair shot.

The big story here is the MASSIVE failure of the "news" media to inform the public as to what's actually happening. In fact, President Biden just had one of the most productive first two years since LBJ.
— lowkell (@lowkell) February 6, 2023
Under President Bidenās leadership, the unemployment rate is at a historic low at 3.4% and more Americans are working than at any time in history.
