Original Note:
The 446K jobs created average per month is factually correct but missing important context. The 7/2023 BLS figure is 4M higher than the 2/2020 peak employment before COVID-19. It’s more accurate to say per month 313K (9.4M/30) jobs were recovered and 133K (4M/30) created. https://data.bls.gov/timeseries/CES0000000001
