Original Note:
The US Bureau of Labor Statistics reports a 25 month stretch of unemployment no more than 4% between 2018-2020. The tweet says “below 4%,” so given the 4% growth in June 2018 and Jan 2019, it’s technically correct, but implying a more significant accomplishment than it is. https://data.bls.gov/timeseries/LNS14000000
