Donald Trump and Republicans’ reckless economic policies are causing unemployment to rise – at the same time prices are surging. The American people cannot afford to live or work in Trump’s economy.
NEW: The labor market is worse than previously thought, with the latest data showing the U.S. created about 106,000 total jobs in the past three months, the weakest pace of growth since the onset of the 2020 pandemic.
The U.S. job market was weak in July, and previous months were worse than thought
Sharp revisions of government data show the U.S. created 33,000 jobs total in May and June, while July’s number came in soft, too.
