Original Note:
The 13.954M jobs total is factually correct but missing context. The October 2023 figure is 4.552M higher than the February 2020 peak of employment before COVID-19 forced shutdowns and layoffs. It’s more accurate to say 9.402M jobs have been recovered and 4.552M created. https://data.bls.gov/timeseries/CES0000000001
