FACT CHECK: No, Biden Didn’t “Create” Record Jobs
June 27, 2024
The vast majority of the jobs “created” under Biden were simply recovered from the pandemic — while wage growth was higher under President Trump.
- As many as seven-in-ten jobs “created” since the pandemic were recovered, not new jobs.
-
- During their first 37 months in office, President Trump created a net 6.4 million new jobs — compared to just 5.3 million jobs “created” under Biden.
-
- President Trump created 419,000 new manufacturing jobs and 740,000 new construction jobs in this time period, while Biden created just 186,000 manufacturing jobs and 531,000 construction jobs over the same period.
- More foreign-born workers have joined the labor force than native-born American workers during the Biden presidency.
- Overall unemployment is at its highest in more than two years — with unemployment spiking among Hispanic Americans, Asian Americans, veterans, and high school graduates who did not attend college.
- Labor force participation still remains FAR below pre-pandemic levels.
- Wage growth was HIGHER under President Trump.
The only way back to prosperity is by re-electing President Donald J. Trump in November.
